What Am I Doing Now?

(Updated April 23, 2025, from my home in the Spanish state of Catalunya)

New Conversations

While I love podcast guesting and creating videos, nothing clarifies my deep beliefs about improving performance like writing.

Which is why I LOVE Sarah Johnson's interview format in her Curated Career Conversations.

It's always a pleasure to converse with Sarah and there are a lot of practical ideas and applications not only in the answers within this interview but in Sarah's questions too

Creatively

In between ski days here in Catalunya (we had INCREDIBLE snow all through March,) I made a short video at the 1992 Olympic Canoeing Parc in which I share thoughts about where to find inspiration in the course of change and improvement... and which kinds of influence may not be so helpful.

About that snow... beautiful snowshoe strolls like this one at the Catalan ski station of Sant Joan de l'Erm engage the creative muscle like no other!

Collaborations

Two collaborations in which I'm investing more time, energy, and resources are:

1. The Outlier Project: This networking group based in the United States and founded by my friend, Scott MacGregor, is growing by leaps and bounds. So much so that Scott assembled a team of regional ambassadors to simplify and localize the member experience. I agreed to serve as the international ambassador to support our members living outside the US and Canada (like me.)
2. Rios Lodge: This remote riverside retreat on Costa Rica's Pacuare River makes me smile every day... because of the smiles and reviews I see from our guests. I joined the ownership group of Rios Lodge a few years ago and since then, I've watched our leadership make improvements that are as good for the land as they are for our guests. The majority of our clients are retreat leaders who want to immerse their groups in Costa Rica's lush rain forest and enjoy a space that fosters disconnection and transformation. I look forward to hosting my own retreats here soon!
