Mother in the Wild reads "An Awesome Book of Thanks", by Dallas Clayton
Loneliness epidemic. Did you know we're currently experiencing this? A recent Harvard study found that 1 in 4 Americans feel they have no one to confide in. So, if you feel lonely or like you're lacking something, you are (ironically...) not alone.Today's episode can help. Radha Agrawal shares simple tools from her new book, BELONG: Find your people, create your community & live a more connected life. My friend, the Live Inspired community is absolutely a place where you belong. My hope is that today's episode helps you strengthen the community where you live, too. NOTES: Check out these recent articles about the loneliness epidemic: New York Times, Washington Post. Get a copy of Radha's new BELONG book. Meaningful relationships are the key to a healthy, happy life. Isolation is as detrimental to your health as being an alcoholic; twice as detrimental as obesity, according to the same study noted above. Learn more about Radha Agrawal on her site radhaagrawal.com. The cornerstone of belonging is participating. Don't just be a bystander. Begin architecting your community: Ask yourself: Who am I and what do I care about? Write down the qualities you're looking for in a friend. Write down the qualities you do not want your friend to have. Realize you need to have the qualities you're seeking (i.e. less judgmental, listen well). Be gently self-aware of how you're showing up. Begin with "exploratory" phase (try new things, show up at new events, observe). Move into "participatory" phase: Which events would you like to go back to and push yourself to participate, volunteer, strike up real conversation? Stop asking questions like "what do you do." Ask bigger questions: What are you most excited about? What's a moment when you were most afraid? Be patient in the process. It takes 80 hours to call someone a friend. Prioritize this. ALL of our issues ladder down to one thing: NOT belonging. It's exhausting to hang out with people who don't get you. Take the time to find community members who fill up your tank. Sometimes, the more successful you are the more at arms length you are from people. It can be lonely on top. We're often part of a community because we're born into it. Cultivate a sense of belonging; feeling of "I'm home. I'm happy." Want to get started making new friends?

What is a characteristic or trait that you possessed as a child that you wish you still exhibited today? I wish I was less combative and a better listener instead of beating my own drum. 3.

You are sitting on a bench overlooking a gorgeous beach. You have the opportunity to have a long conversation with anyone living or dead. Who would it be? Sacagawea! She helped Lewis and Clark get across harrowing parts of the country while pregnant. I'd ask her what it takes to be such an incredible explorer. 5. What is the best advice you've ever received? Choose your friends wisely. You're as good as the 5 closest and the sum of all the friends you keep. Pick your friends and nurture them. 6. What advice would you give your 20-year-old self? Stop trying to be so cool and relevant. This is your time to discover who you are. 7. It’s been said that all great people can have their lives summed up in one sentence.

Dallas Clayton (An Awesome Book!) joins Alexi on this week's episode!
You’ve almost certainly seen Dallas Clayton’s fun and positive Instagram photos or at the least, some Instagram photos inspired by him. When he’s not busy writing books (for children of all ages), touring the world, painting on buildings, or climbing trees, he is generally trying find happiness and share it with others. He’s been called the Dr. Seuss of the internet generation, Justin Timberlake is a big fan, and I think you’re really going to love this quirky and unconventional conversation. -- You can connect with Dallas Clayton on Instagram and Twitter at @dallasclayton.

EP12 - Dallas Clayton is a very skilled and talented artist. His work can take on many forms and often sends out great messages too. In 'Featured Lettering Artist Dallas Clayton' I give a little intro about Dallas and then discuss a piece of work that he created which stood out to me. I provide an inspiring quote for you to have a go at hand lettering in whatever style that takes your fancy. Then towards the end of the episode answer a very common question that many lettering artists will question at least once if not more in their lettering journeys.
Track Record with Sue Dougan, talking to Dallas Clayton, about his career and musical influences.

Dallas Clayton writes Children's books. He has been lauded by many as a modern day Dr. Seuss. And while I tend toagree, I also find him to be a bit of a modern day philosopher, but perhaps the two go hand in hand. I came into this conversation knowing only that I wanted to speak with the man that Isaw a few years back reading a book for kids to a group of adults. I don't think it getsmuch more punk rock than that. P.S. - please excuse the audio quality
Dallas Clayton, author/illustrator of "An Awesome Book" stops by Harsh Toke HQ to discuss following your dreams, creating zines in the DIY world of punk rock, fatherhood and keeping it real in the world of Instagram and iPhones!
Dallas Clayton is an author and illustrator who brings an incredible sense of joy, wonder, possibility, and adventure with him wherever he goes. The way I like to describe him is a mashup of Dr. Seuss and John Lennon. He works with brightly colored visuals and strong thematic ideas cleverly disguised in words. His Do-It-Yourself ethic lead him to self publish An Awesome Book in 2009, and once the internet grabbed a hold of it, it did not let go. He began to ship the book worldwide out of his livingroom and then piled into a van with some friends to challenge the idea of what a book tour could be. He now tours the world world reading to kids and collaborating on murals and showing them what it means to dream big. He has since published a host of books, including An Awesome Book Of Thanks and An Awesome Book Of Love, and been able to work with a variety of publishers like Amazon and HarperCollins. In 2012 the story of his success was featured in an ad campaign for Google Chrome. One of the things that I love about him is that early on in his journey he started the non-profit Awesome World Foundation to give away books and promote literacy. His latest creation is Lily The Unicorn who is being developed as a television show. I was first introduced to his creations through the short film for An Awesome Book Of Love. You can see the result below and I am sure you will find it as inspiring and moving as I did. I am really excited to have Dallas on the Podcast for two reasons. His path has been one of exploration, experimentation, and a strong sense of questioning what is possible for himself and children of all ages everywhere. To paraphrase his own words, because he is taking something that makes him happy and using it to make other people happy. IN THIS EPISODE: How growing up in the DIY culture shaped his world view When he knew what he wanted to do for the rest of his life How dreaming about a magical marshmallow machine and college can be the same thing The author who is a beacon in his life How he taught his son about chores by paying him to learn songs What he has learned by working with different publishers Why he loves people who play the unpopular instrument DISCOVERY QUOTE: “Be grateful for the things that you have on the way to achieving those dreams” - click to tweet!
