Ep. 006 - ”Rivalry? What rivalry?” - w. Vivardy Boursiquot (Photo Friday Special)
1h 22m · PublishedDon't you just love it when a good wholesome unplanned, unrehearsed, unscripted, unfiltered and honest conversation just flows smoothly and takes on a life of its own^
I do.
Hadn't done a Photography-centered recording in a while so it was really nice of my friend and creative compadre, Vivardy Boursiquot, to stop by and chime on a couple of items that we just threw out onto the proverbial whiteboard and just ran with.
What transpired was a truly fun and engaging exchange of ideas and perspectives which are always a blast if you ask me.
From the subject of ethics in photography, to an open overview of Vivardy's website, to the relevance on online critiques...we pretty much let loose on this one - and it's a gem of a good one.
You can connect with Vivardy via his website for business and related inquiries. You can also follow his Social Media updates via Instagram and/or Facebook.

Ep. 005 - ”I am loving this marathon called Life” - Stephanie Delpe
1h 9m · PublishedWhen you have the opportunity to connect with a kindred spirit, you do not brush it off. I believe that not every person we meet along our ongoing path of Awesomeness is meant to stay there. But there is certainly a great deal of worthy and enriching connections and friendships to be made and embraced along the way.
[*Note - I'll definitely do an episode on the topic of toxic relationships as it's certainly something I want to touch on]
On this episode of the Awaken The Awesome podcast, I welcome Stephanie Delpe, New York-born Fashion & Lifestyle blogger, and a woman of many singular accomplishments, who got on my radar recently following a recent post that really got me thinking.
See, as much as we talk about 'equality' and not dismissing the many victories that have happened over the course of our history as human beings, I do believe there are some things that Men will never understand about Women, and vice versa. But that should stop us from trying. Which is why, when I read this very honest and sincere account about that emotional roller-coaster that can occur when a woman chooses to cut her hair - I had questions. Lots of questions.
The words were true and the story was heartfelt...but there was obviously something I didn't get.
"...Hair?"
Yes, hair. And so much more.
A delightful exchange of perspectives and a noteworthy learning experience for your truly. I want to thank Stephanie for her time and powerful message which I believe to be a resounding one.
You can connect with Stephanie Delpe via her blog or show some love and follow her on Instagram and/or Facebook
I do hope you enjoy this exchange as we certainly enjoyed bringing it to you.

Ep. 002 - Spartan Race 2016 : a Post-Mortem (w. Ludovic Godefroy)
1h 2m · PublishedI can tell you I'm really excited to share this second episode of the Awaken The Awesome podcast with you guys. Not just because I have yet again lived to to tell the tale of yet another engaging and grueling Spartan Race, but I get to sit down and take a look back at the whole ordeal and acutally smile, not sure if it's the euphoria or the pride.
Either way, this is a special one because my brother-in-arms and fellow Spartan Racer/Teammate Ludovic Godefroy joins me as we do a Post-Mortem "What were we thinking?"-type discussion on the dos, donts, whats and watch-outs on running your first Spartan Race - which you should.
An engaging conversation that I hope will help demystify certain urban legends but also serve as measure of precaution and planning for newcomers. Empowering and engaging, we had a lot to discuss.
Ludovic is a certified kinesiologist, personal trainer, motivational speaker, father, husband and all-around awesome gent. Just listen to the audio about how he helped me conquer what I identified as my greatest obstacle for this year's course. You can follow him on Instagram as well as Twitter.
If you enjoyed this episode, be sure to leave a comment and tell me how you're liking or disliking the program so far. I'm getting ready to launch some pretty nifty features within the coming weeks so every little piece of constructive feedback is a welcome one.
Go create your destiny and until next time ... #StayAwesome
