The Happy Little Podcast: Recent Episodes
Jamie Rivenberg
Hello, I’m Jamie, and welcome to The Happy Little Podcast.
A mixture of thoughts, stories, adventures and optimism. And hopefully something that makes the world a slightly better place. After all, that’s what we’re hoping for, right?
I will take you for a wander around my brain, as we explore ideas for finding happiness in every aspect of life.
I will share stories and experiences from my own life, from my childhood, through my young free single days, and into my adventures as a husband and parent - oh, and whatever my current dog walk thoughts are as I wander through the countryside.
Sometimes I will be sharing small thoughts or poems with you, other times I’ll be discussing the bigger concepts & subjects that fill the wonderful world we live in.
Some things will be carefully written, considered, and planned out, as I choose my words carefully before sharing them. Others will be a completely unscripted, and, well... let’s just say they’ll tumble out of my mouth and will no doubt be less than perfect. But we’re not here to be perfect, are we?
Each episode will centre around a topic or theme. A facet of life that we can explore from different perspectives, to better understand our place in the world, and look at how we can overcome obstacles to achieve a positive mindset.
Today’s thought - Change.
Is it inevitable? Is change really as good as a rest? And what happens if we keep things the same? I explore these thoughts as I embark upon a big change in my own life.
This episode's poem is "The Man of Devon" by Jamie Rivenberg.
Today’s thought - Time. What is time? Why are we so obsessed with it? And how do we make the most of what time we have? In this episode, I am mostly out and about, and I explore the connection I have with nature and how that affects my relationship with time.
This episode's poem in "Time" by Jamie Rivenberg, accompanied by the music "On the Passing of Time" by Kevin McLeod.
Today’s thought - Self. What is it to be an individual? How do we keep track of who we are? How do we define ourselves, and how do we define others? And I guess, more importantly, how do we manage those relationships?
This episode's poem is "If I Had A Boat" by Jamie Rivenberg.
Welcome to The Happy Little Podcast.
In this first introductory episode, I thought it would be best to let you know a bit about what this whole thing is about - who I am, what my background is, and what the podcast will hopefully explore.
