Kanye West: I’m a servant of God
Never do I ever remember an artist causing this kind of stir before. I've been working in radio through artists having affairs, getting divorced, coming out...but never anything like this. This morning alone I saw three separate radio stations that I have done business with each put out a manager's statement on why they were or were not choosing to play his music. Wow. Really?

Road Trips, Childhood Memories and a New Movie….
A new movie that came out yesterday (May 15th!) on iTunes, Amazon and showing in various theaters across the country via Tugg, promises fun, childhood adventure and joy to audiences. Called a “modern-day tale of hope, faith and courage based on stories from the Bible” Beyond the Sun is the first movie to ever feature a guest appearance by the Pope himself! Seriously Pope Francis is in this film! Here’s the trailer: Since the film is about childhood adventures, I thought I’d share one that isn’t necessarily from my childhood – but that of my kids.

Uh…no. It’s time to tuck into snuggly pajamas, grab a steaming cup of cocoa and curl up…

Guest Post: Sexy Velvet (Alkaline) Water
by Mike McKeown If you’ve been following along here, you know that in recent weeks I’ve been discussing different aspects of anxiety.

Often, anxiety is either the directly the cause or a major symptom of whatever has brought the person into counseling. In the first article, Anxiety 101, I went over the idea that not all anxiety is bad. Sometimes we need a low level of anxiety to move forward in our lives. In the second article, Take Back Your Control, I discussed how anxiety can consume our thoughts and what we…

Red Nose Day May 25
As someone who LOVES British television, I have followed Red Nose Day for years. It’s a fabulous tradition and I’m excited to see it get picked up here in the U.S. So when I got a press release recently, I knew without a doubt that I was going to share it. As we near the start of summer and think about vacations and time off with families there are others who are not nearly as fortunate to enjoy those luxuries. On May 25th NBC television will air Red Nose Day, a live telecast aimed at ending child poverty. Red Nose Day is unique in that multiple charitable organizations will benefit…
