288: Uncloseted Riff and Rant – Admit it. You Don’t Have Your Shit Together
Here’s the thing. None of us really has our shit together. We all have shit, shit, shit in our lives. So don’t let anyone tell you they’ve totally got it together. But when you don’t feel like you do have your shit together, sometimes it’s validating to realize, “I’m not alone!” Here’s a few insights…

It’s a story that’s been told. Yet so many still believe there’s no reason to tell this story again. That’s complete bullshit.

282: Uncloseted Riff and Rant – Take Pride and Don’t Back Down
