Right Here! Right Now!
RIGHT HERE! RIGHT NOW! is a brand new podcast where we remind you that being present and mindful in each of our moments is the only way to truly be able to learn. And from LEARNING comes GROWTH! A true transformation into our most authentic selves. The mindset is that we must be present and looking for the lesson in what we are experiencing - day to day; moment to moment. And one of the primary purposes of learning and growth is to take us to places we did not think were possible and to prepare us for a challenge that will make us better human beings; or the lives of our families better; even to help our colleagues and those in our charge better. Sometimes the challenges are known - so many times the challenges are a bit of a surprise. As long as we see the challenge as an opportunity, we will learn from them and carry on to better places down a path lined with lessons and teachings. We recognize in this philosophy that we have the capacity - even the responsibility - to begin again - and your NEW beginning starts RIGHT HERE! RIGHT NOW!

Change Changes Us - Right Here Right Now
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Change doesn’t just alter our circumstances.
It confronts our identity, challenges our illusion of control, and invites us to evolve from who we believe we are toward why we are.
In this episode, we explore how we can shift our relationship with change — especially the unwanted and unforeseen kind — from resistance to revelation.
Drawing inspiration from Stoic philosophy, modern neuroscience, Adam Grant’s work on belief flexibility, and Maya Shankar’s The Other Side of Change, this conversation examines:
- Why change often feels like a threat rather than an opportunity
- How attachment to identity fuels resistance
- The difference between volunteered change and imposed change
- Why our WHY becomes our compass when life knocks us off course
- The power of curiosity in becoming better agents of change
- The role of moral elevation in expanding who we believe we can become
- Why “we contain multitudes” — and why that matters
This episode re-frames change not as something to endure, but as something to wield.
Because:
Change doesn’t interrupt the path. It reveals it.
What happens to us does not define us.
How we evolve through it does.
As always, the invitation is simple —
return to this moment, and choose consciously who you are becoming.
Right here. Right now.
