#334 Lindsay Davis: Being Comfortable with Uncertainty
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes As you might guess, I live in an interior world of creativity and imagination. That’s why I love to ponder. Yes, I spend a good portion of my day thinking about what is and, more importantly, what might be. Every now and again, I come across an idea that I am not sure what to do with. That’s when I make a phone call to my “go-to” thinkers who also love to ponder challenging topics. Of course I almost always put in a call to my friend Terry Hershey. And then when it comes to deep-thinking my “go-to” will always be the ever-so brilliant Lindsay Davis....

#333 David Buck: Early Planning for Retirement
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today, with special guest Dave Buck, we will chat about the details of retirement... mostly details not having to do with finances. In his new book, The Time Optimized Life, our guest David Buck writes… “Retirement usually represents a significant change in lifestyle. Most traditional planning leading up to retirement centers on having the necessary financial resources to last the remainder of a person’s lifespan. However, much less focus is placed on how one lives and the time when they choose to spend these resources. “The transition to this new life can...

#331 Nora D’Ecclesis: Practicing Generational Legacy
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Hi Paul. My guest today, author and Zen Master, Nora D’Ecclesis joins us to discuss her latest fiction, The Contessa’s Legacy. Beginning in Pompeii, 79 AD, Nora guides us through 2000 years of a history of resilience, perseverance, and commitment—all for the sake of what she calls, “Generational Legacy.” The story moved me, but not as much as the ideology—so much for those of us that live in our heads and hearts. What is required for a passionate mother to leave with her family the very best of family tradition as they are forced to deal with the distractions...

The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today’s show is one I have been looking forward since the publication of our guest’s new book: Unfolding Light! I can’t wait for conversation with poet and mystic Steve Garnaas-Holmes.

#328 Suzanne Campi: Life’s School of Wisdom
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Well, here I sit, back from 3 weeks on a northern Europe cruise and a few days in Cambridge, England. I love travel, except I got home last night, and I am still on England time and a wee bit fatigued. But I promised our most special guest my best. Which won’t be difficult at all because she is a tremendous guest. So much fun! In my opinion, our guest today, Suzanne Campi ranks as a premier personal life coach for those of you looking for wisdom in life’s most challenging transitions. Today’s show is all about making wise choices in a puzzling world as we deal with what...

#327 Kathleen Joan: The Art and Science of Transformation
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Our guest today, Kathleen Joan, is a certified life coach and first-time author of a somewhat controversial book titled, From Goo to Gratitude. It’s controversial because she challenges some traditional lifestyle requirements of a very conservative religious faith tradition. But her science, which will be the focus of our show, is fascinating as we dive into the depths of what Kathleen calls “cellular recognition”—that cells can be open or closed—and how that impacts personal transformation. Such a fascinating discussion today. Important Links ...

#326 Charlie: Finding God in the Quiet
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today I thought I might explore a few thoughts I have wrestled with recently about discovering God in a fresh and ever more realistic fashion. A discovery based not on our expectations of how God might act, but on our reception to a God of unexpected relationships, of quiet relationships. Oh, I am tempted to go into deep theology at this time, but I won’t. Instead I want to tell a couple stories. I am will begin with, an… I don’t know… like a nearly three-thousand-year-old story of the prophet Elijah, his contest with the priests of Baal, his 40-day...

#325 Terry Hershey: Stories That Matter
The Next Chapter with Charlie
Show Notes Today is a special show for me. That’s because I have a gifted friend willing to step in when I need him. Due to a last-minute cancellation of a show with a pre-planned guest, Terry stepped right up to help. So, we have a most interesting show with little prep time. In a recent Sabbath Moment post Terry Hershey wrote this, “I believe in the healing power of revisiting. Because sometimes we need stories more than food to stay alive. They remind us of what really matters and allow us to see—and connect—with our heart. Stories save us.” Today Terry and I talk about...
