Live on WXPN! (Gene Shay's folk show) 

I had two days notice. I wanted to do it. I had asked for it. And yet, the thought of it made me want to throw up. I knew in my guts that there was only one possible answer, and that it was YES! 

I had been invited to be a guest on WXPN’s folk show. I have had the honor of being a live guest on this fabulous radio station three times before, but the last time was long ago, and live radio always feels like a trapeze with no net. It is like a mirror in the morning.
 
As I build a creative life, my intention is to be brave.  I know that it is my responsibility to continually hone my craft, and that I need to say yes to any fabulous opportunity that presents itself, even when I am afraid.  I believe that is what this road is made of.
 
I also believe in luck. Seneca, an ancient Roman philosopher, said that luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.  That rings true, and I am doing my best to be prepared.
 
I am grateful to have been a live guest on Gene Shay’s folk show (guest hosted by Chuck Elliot) and I feel proud of how it turned out.  My segment was a half hour long, and I would love for you to listen.  (Look below the picture to listen, download and share...)

 
How are you preparing to be lucky?


( I signed the wall, and later noticed that I am in the same area as my favorite Monkey! I think the Dylan one is fake...)
