Podcast appearances and mentions of monica mccarthy

Today's solo riff is on a three-word phrase that has helped quell countless waves of anxiety in the decade since I first heard it, wisdom passed from my friend Monica McCarthy's (aka MonBon's) mom then to the pages of Pivot. Pardon the occasional panting (lol) and background noise—err New York City soundscape—as I recorded this one on a big hill at the park, running up and down while throwing a giant log for Ryder to chase. He chases sticks, I chase ideas! This crossover episode originally aired on the Pivot podcast on April 2, 2023.

Casey and Julie sit down with Monica McCarthy - talented actor, entrepreneur, writer, and philosopher - to talk, well, all the things, from good acting to theatre history to the meaning of life, to favorite philosophers.  TOP TAKEAWAYS -  You can change your mind- whether you feel called to do something else, or something in your life just feels constricting, you have the right to change your story. Theatre is a playing ground for exploring humanity. Philosophy can help us build better, more self-aware lives. Studying structure, whether in language or ideas, gives you something to embrace or push against.   If you don't see what you are looking for out there, create it.  Monica McCarthy is an actress, emerging playwright, Shakespeare coach, podcast host, community impresaria, public speaker, and messaging consultant. She is the creator and host of the live monthly events series and podcast The Happier Hour: Philosophy To Help Your Life Suck Less. Monica was previously the impresaria for popular communities like Holstee, Impact Hub, Escape The City, and the 92Y, where she has curated and facilitated thousands of events including Holstee’s Campfire Chats (on stage interviews with folks like Tim Urban, Gretchen Rubin, James Victore, and AJ Jacobs), Moonlight Society (a conversation series interviewing guests about life off the clock), 100 Days of Impact (in response to Number 45’s first 100 days in office), and Escape Mondays. Monica frequently speaks on the topic of purpose and with organizations on the value of philosophy and community, including her TEDx talk Philosophy: The Life Hack Of The Future. Monica has facilitated numerous workshops on the topic of Creativity, Purpose, and Collaboration for organizations including: the United Nations Development Programme, AirBnB, Eileen Fisher, Starwood, Global Citizen and more. She has also authored and co-authored internal and external messaging around purpose for Uber, Starwood Hotels, Brugal Rum, and Broadway Bound Kids. She prefers her bourbon neat, her coffee black, and the window seat from which she has seen 52 countries on six continents.  Website:  MonicaMcCarthy.net Instagram: @MissMMcCarthy Twitter: @MissMMcCarthy
