We, dear parents, dear adults, are the ones who probably need the spark. Dear Every Single Day listeners. I interrupt this podcast with a message from our sponsor: Spark. Out of my Every Single Day writing habit many things have been created: books, courses, podcasts, etc. Much of it has been co-created. Many of those co-creations have been with family. Younger family. I’m now busy with two books with my two nieces (links to the books here: Drama and Escaping the Light). I’m...

We’re in Part 7, if you don’t have it yet, you still have a few chapters to reign it in. But seriously, if you’re here reading Part 7, I’d venture to say that you do really, really, really want to.

A dear friend passed away. He created Every Single Day. I’m pretty sure that’s what kept him happy, alive, and positive until just beyond his 105th birthday. Here’s the audio from a few minutes from part of my upcoming course (Spark Campfire) in which I talk about Tony. I recorded the video the day before he died. I hope he’ll help me by inspiring others to create on a daily basis. To see the video and learn more about Spark Campfire, you can see the course curriculum (and the “Preview”)...
