  • 5. Stephen O Presents Connections
    Feb 1 2021

    Stephen Olson tells of a show he watched called "Connections" and how it inspired him to look at the connections in his own life.
    He tells a story about how a relative who's a social worker helped another relative of his (on a different branch of the family tree) get the help he needed to be able to enter the public school system.
    He explains the chain of events that led to that point and what could have happened differently that would have caused this to not have happened.
    We have a philosophical discussion about cause and effect and how life could be different with one decision being made differently (the butterfly effect)
    Finally, we discuss happiness how a positive attitude can cause a better future

  • The Promo for Life is a Story
    Dec 17 2020
    This is a podcast where people come on and share stories with me 1 on 1. I think this will be easier to set up and an easier way to share ideas. Instead of dictation of philosophical views, the podcast will showcase a sharing of experiences and how we can learn from the bad things that happen and how it shapes people’s views of the world, especially other people’s. The goal will be to share knowledge and wisdom.
