I'll tell you how I tormented me (a bit) today -enslaving myself and how I recovered. We'll read a bit of Thoreau's "On the Duty of Civil Disobedience" and talk about what that means to the (wo)man who wants True Freedom. We'll close talking about being a man — strong and understanding - discipline and mercy. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NCVe85wYS1w

This podcast is about one thing: helping each of us live our lives on our own terms — to live uncompromised — for you and for a better world. Future episodes will feature experts talking money, spirituality, parenting, politics, health/nutrition, history, philosophy and 100 other topics … in this first episode, I lay out the essence of the philosophy of living uncompromised. But, if you just want the skinny: The more connected we are to truth and the best within us — and the more we live that out, the freer we are. With this freedom, we’re more able to create our lives on our terms. And though most people don’t think of it this way, the freer we are, the more we’ll create great things in the rest of the world. As the old adage goes: The truth shall set you free. This podcast is about us discovering truth —and doing something with it, to set ourselves free to live uncompromised. Ready? Let’s do this.
