Ep 9 - Connected Networks

12m · Steve Baker - Good Company Podcast · 12 Oct 14:03

Fungi... How interesting could a conversation around mushrooms be? I'm standing in the woods. Quietly appreciating the quiet stillness. The dappled sunlight sparkling on the forrest floor. A beautiful mix of auburn, reds and browns. Floating on top. Small spots of white drawing my attention. I bent down to pick one. I wondered what type of mushroom it might be... I also knew exactly who to ask. Later, I had the chance to question my friend. We discussed the mushroom... but what emerged in the conversation was fascinating. While mushrooms might be the most familiar part of a fungus, most of their bodies are made up of a mass of thin threads, known as a mycelium. We now know that these threads act as a kind of underground internet, linking the roots of different plants. That tree in your garden is probably hooked up to a bush several metres away, thanks to mycelia. They use this network to help each other. This got me thinking about the network between people. An interconnected network of family, friend's and aquantances all there to potentially help you. In my opinion it's this network that support you and it's very much in your interest to know, choose and nurture your network. We're all connected to the network in some way. The question is are you nurturing or ingnoring yours? I go a bit deeper into this experience and my thoughts in this week's podcast. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/justgoodcompany/message

Ep 14 - Flexible Routines

Are you part of the 5am club?

I have been. Getting up early to make sure I could complete my routine nice and early and really kickstart my day. I also know it doesn't work for some people.

I've been through that too. As I've learned to understand my own needs I developed a more flexible way to think about a consistent routine.

It makes sure I get done what I need to in a way that suits me.

I explain how in this week's podcast :)

Hope you're having a great day x
