We all often say we want peace in life, especially in difficult times, but what does that really mean? How can we be more diligent and consistent in finding those moments of peace? In Episode 27, we elaborate on the concept of peace, the importance of finding moments of peace, and go through a few real life examples of how this practice has been playing out in AJ's life. It's different for everyone, and every person and situation is different, but hopefully we can all continue to try bringing a little more peace to our everyday (and sometimes not so everyday) lives and to those around us.

So, it's a mind to mind, I guess?  Within this Episode 20 lies some insight into what makes introspection so helpful, yet dangerous to our growth and enjoyment of life. It's a path fraught with bad analogies, off handed tips, and a central goal of hoping to help each other become more capable in reigning in our own minds from time to time and live life better.

This is a tough question for everyone, but it’s especially tough for those of us who consider ourselves creatives.  Is the allure of a big payoff from a longer and bigger project worth the drawbacks of the periods of uncertainty and doubt?  Or is the security and routine progress from consistent smaller projects the right move for your mind and workflow? Episode fifteen of mystrangepodcast is all about the ups and downs of both paths, and AJ delves into his own uncertainty about what is and isn’t working for him. We’re all learning and trying to better understand ourselves, and this is just a stepping stone to having a bigger conversation about your own path to being a better creative individual and all around better version of yourself!
