Podcast #1: The War of Art and The Art of Action
I love the beginning of a new month – especially February. My birthday is on March 1st so I tend to take a lot of action in February. This year, I’m continuing the tradition by sharing my very first podcast.
I hope to utilize podcasts to share more of my creative process – something I don’t discuss too often on the blog. In this podcast, I discuss the powerful role of resistance and a call to action at the end.
I greatly appreciate your comments and look forward to discussing this topic with you! Thank you for listening :).

Thank you! I didn’t really think through “talking points” so it seems a little fragmented to me – I’m happy you found a link between the call to action and The War of Art :). My next podcast will be a bit simpler hopefully!!
I loved the podcast Carolyn :)

Hi Carolyn,
I am so happy to have discovered your website! You seem like a very positive, motivated person and your writing is beautiful and thought-provoking. One of my dearest friends recovered from cancer, and another is battling with it today. Both are so positive. I think its so important to have recognized that there is a dark side to things and to determinedly shift our focus to the glass-half-full, to seeing the positives and sharing the good, as hard sometimes as that is.
Personally, blessed for now with good health, I’m working to try and share my positive outlook with others on my new blog, http://www.goodoodles.com…. a space in our violent, bad news, negatively-obssesed media for somethingS good. I don’t believe the world is as bad as they make it out to be! Who said we wanted to read and see all that and only that. Its a race to dig up the dirtiest dirt. Time for a change!!! Spread the positives! I’d love your thoughts on Goodoodles any time you have the time! And thanks for YOUR blog. I’ll be back for more. Happy Tuesday,
