Repossible: Recent Episodes
Bradley Charbonneau
There's usually a choice. It's usually yours.
You know when you make a decision and you know it's the wrong one? Later on, you wonder why you did it. At some point, often when you're alone, the world has quieted down, and you have a minute, you think, "Am I the type of person who doesn't do that type of thing?"
There's not only a choice of what type of ice cream to get but there's a choice about what type of person we want to become.
Did you catch that?
You might not yet be the type of person who does that sort of thing but you can become that type of person.
How?
By doing that type of thing.
I wasn't the type of person who wrote books, created podcasts, or got in front of the camera.
Until I was.
Now I am.

Snow on the ground. Pepper by my side. And a simple but important question: What should the next 500 episodes be about? This episode isn’t a recap of everything I’ve done. It’s a pause, a breath, and a pivot. After 500 episodes—and a lot of walking, talking, creating, and experimenting—I’m realizing something more clearly than ever: […]

We could hide under a rock and hope to survive. Or we can step up and thrive. Nicoline is action-oriented, positive, fearless, and fun.
I knew I liked her for a reason.

I had the hardest time asking: asking for help, asking what I wanted with my life.
It turns out, the answer isn't necessarily the hardest part.
The hardest part can be asking the question in the first place.
Let me ask you a question: bradleycharbonneau.com/asking/.

You know those moments in the movies, usually accompanied by dramatic music, when lightning strikes or the guy hangs on to the cliff by his pinky toe and then miraculously saves himself (and probably the rest of the planet) and goes on to cure cancer and star in the remake of The Shawshank Redemption?
Yeah, well, it didn’t happen like that for me.
An Invitation to Come Out of Hiding and Embrace Your Super Natural Self After 5 years, the book is finally out.
It's Adwynna's story, it's my story, it's possibly your story.
It starts way back when.
It starts with open.
From a book review:
"From the very beginning I was pulled in and I gobbled it up. The story Adwynna tells of her journey into her true spiritual connection is told with heartfelt honesty. Her experience is relatable even if our own paths are different. The insight she shares and advice is something all of us can use to help understand our own experiences and help us open to the magical possibilities of being connected to source energy."
You too can start with opening her book at Amazon.

Leah Dines has some people in her world who don't dare do. How can we help them how they help us.
And how can we get this foreword written?
By the way, how am I going to write the upcoming 7 books in the Repossible series? HINT: I'm not. You're going to be a part of it.

Lightning might be the flash of inspiration, but thunder is what you do with it. Thunder is what tremors in your heart, what growls in your throat as the words want to escape, it's what rumbles in your gut and tells you what you should be doing.
Lightning is overrated.
Thunder is where it happens.
Every week in 2020.

Make sure you download her "Seven easy ways to add more play into your life."
I call it "enlightenment" and Louise calls is play.
We're both right.
But I think her way is easier to understand, achieve, and...spell.
Louise is onto something with her drive to get back to our inner child.
From the description of "The Recess Life:" The Recess Life is the podcast that gets you back in touch with your inner child. Host Louise Wo will remind you that being an adult doesn't mean that you stop playing. On The Recess Life she interviews entrepreneurs, entertainers, thought leaders and artists to help you connect with your creative spirit again (we promise it's still in there somewhere!).

It matters. Sure, there are factors like talent, time (and timing), patience, perseverance, and they're all good and all important.
But how much do you want it?
"Hey, why doesn't somebody do this?" Oh, OK. I will.
Just back from 20Booksto50K® writer's conference and I think there's a need for a nonfiction course/podcast/platform.
Even if there isn't such a need, I have a need.
Since I believe in "Teach What You Want to Learn," I should build it.
7 years later and we're both patient, perseverant, and authors John Muldoon and Bradley Charbonneau inspired an author to keep going 7 years ago.
He's still going.

I'm deep in nonfiction production mode.

Here's a chapter from Book 1: Maybe it's time to go.
We all need a place to find out clarity, our focus, our vision.
But no, really, a place, a location on the planet where we go.
Where's yours?
So you move abroad. Yay! Then you move back. Oh. If you're contemplating life-changing move abroad--or are returning from one--Lasairiona has some insight into how to make that transition easier, better, and worth however many nights crying yourself to sleep it all took.
"An experienced expat from a decade of living abroad, her honest and uncensored tales of what to expect when you’re expatriating, are as funny as they are poignant, and as practical as they are heartfelt. If you’ve lived abroad, or you’re considering the move from local to expat."
Her book is for sale in Kindle and paperback format.
Bloom Where You're Planted: Life the Expat Way
I don't want to get all morbid or anything, but let's just say you're on your deathbed. OK, too morbid?
Fine. You're at your future deathbed. At the time when it's OK to go. When you've accomplished what you wanted to accomplish in this lifetime.
So what are you going to do in the meantime?
