This is a very different episode. I want to tell you what's been going on with me during the entire life of this podcast. I'm shattered but I won't give up. A sharp corner has been turned.

This is part 2 of my 2-part interview of Benjamin Kintisch, Cantor, chaplain, music teacher, and creator of Life Review: The Hospice Musical. His musical theater background and his current work as a hospice chaplain intersected and gave birth to this inspiring and important musical about life and death. I call this a "Bridge Episode" because this is the first interview that I am posting to both of my podcasts: this podcast, I Have Dreams Dammit! Podcast and my other podcast, Death Talk Podcast.

Is the opposite of burnout, balance?  Or is it connection? Maybe it's both. And maybe the "balance" is about perspective - our perspective from which we observe whether we are in balance or not. What does "balance" mean to you? 

Is it possible that you get sick or get into emergencies on a subconscious level to get attention and support from some people in your life? Some people are only there for us when we are down or in an emergency. It's great to have their support in those moments, but it would be great to have their support even when things are going well. We need someone to cheer us on!

Your real adventure doesn't begin when you begin, it begins when you leave your comfort zone behind - when you chose the unknown over the known - when you chose adventure over stagnation.
