  <itunes:subtitle>I think the "embarrassing myself on purpose" series has run its course, and without a new topic to build a series around, I'm just opening up about myself and talking a little about who I really am to start to connect with you more, and "be authentic."  This week's livestream can be about that, or anything else you want to talk about.

Thank you to my guest co-host, Mike from TheAgingRetiree YouTube channel! I appreciate your willingness to share your time and your insights on everything from social media to retirement to life in general.</itunes:subtitle>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;I want to change the world one person at a time, but I don't want to change just ONE person.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Eventually I will speak on topics adjacent to my main theme, things like being a contrarian thinker and recognizing the value of our place in the universe, but for now I am just re-introducing myself to YouTube - for real this time.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I appreciate every single one of you who has stuck with me this far. We've got amazing things ahead, and I can't wait to get going on them. &lt;/p&gt;

  <itunes:subtitle>This week I'm discussing whether My "Mission: Embarrassment" series is working or if it's time to give YouTube a break altogether. I’ll be sharing more behind-the-scenes stories from my experiments, answering your questions, and discussing how we can all become "unembarrassable" to live more freely.</itunes:subtitle>

  <itunes:subtitle>My guest co-host: Fred Finds Out https://www.youtube.com/@Fred-Finds-Out

This week I'm unpacking why we’re so afraid of being "wrong" and how that fear keeps us stuck. I’ll be sharing more behind-the-scenes stories from my public experiments, answering your questions, and discussing how we can all become "unembarrassable" to live more freely.
