Description

Life moves pretty fast and, in this always-on-the-go world that we find ourselves in, it's becoming ever-harder to pause and reflect on what we see.

Yet, if we don't, we miss the opportunity to experience the things that could truly change our lives.

The Little Pod of Inspiration aims to be that opportunity to stop and savour not only the events around us, but the people, the experiences, the sights and sounds.

Through these inspiring stories and poems of love, redemption, and change, take a moment to really see all the inspirational treasures that are present.

Inspiration is all around us. All we have to do is look.

For many of us, long term vision can be a scary concept. This is understandable, because it usually means that we have to put our faith in something we're doing now even though it's not showing a return until much later.But here's the thing - big successes all failed to start with, in one way or another.My equipment:Shure SM7B MicrophoneMotu M2 Audio InterfaceSony MDR-7506 Studio Monitor HeadphonesPodcast Pro Boom Arm by Accu-Lite and O.C.

I've never been much of a religious man, yet I celebrate certain religious holidays. And I've had others celebrate holidays that, technically, could go against their beliefs.Religion is often blamed as the cause for the world's woes and, often, it can be.Yet for all the wrongs religion can foster, it can also enable the greatest celebration of all - the religion of humanity.My equipment:Electro-Voice RE320Motu M2 Audio InterfaceSony MDR-7506 Studio Monitor HeadphonesPodcast Pro Boom Arm by Accu-Lite and O.C.
