Geoff and I discuss what is meant by existentialism as a philosophy which focuses on the meaning of our experiences of existence. Geoff and I talk about our interactions with the ideas of Existentialism via our mutual gateway experiences of existentialism via Viktor Frankl and the meaning of life.

Richard and Eric respond to a small excerpt about Nora Ephron found in Greg McKeown's wonderful book: "Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less."  Finding out "the point" of something is worth considering, and the two try to figure it out as it relates to the choral art and conducting.  Perhaps an impossible task... They go so far as to ask what is the point of discovering the point? McKeown, G. (2014).  Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less. Ebury Publishing.

Emma Gannon is an author, blogger, and marketer, and she recently released her first book Ctrl Alt Delete: How I Grew Up Online with Ebury Publishing. She was one of the first bloggers I started following when I decided to move to London. I love her charming but no-nonsense take on life and her adventures in this city are always exciting to read about. I'm thrilled to say that you can look forward to hearing from her in an upcoming episode of the podcast! When Emma announced that she was publishing a book, I knew it would be just as fun and thought-provoking as everything else she does. In Ctrl Alt Delete Emma chronicles how she grew up, and ultimately built a career, online - complete with cybersex, catfishing, and many an MSN convo. The book is fun and lighthearted in places, but also deep and philosophical in others as she grapples with such topics as bullying and feminism. There's a whole lot of nostalgia too, for all of us who fumbled our way through growing up in those early days of the Internet. In this episode we talk about the power of self-awareness for designing a life you love, setting online boundaries, creating a work/life balance that works for you, and finding inspiration.
