Podcasts about Morrie Schwartz

On this week's Tuesday People podcast, host Mitch Albom explores the emotional complexity of a loved one's quiet exit—when those nearing the end choose not to share their diagnosis or impending passing with others. Inspired by lessons from Morrie Schwartz, Mitch reflects on what it means to respect someone's personal journey, even when it leaves survivors grappling with unanswered questions. “It's difficult to control the size of a secret,” Albom says, reminding us that while there's no single equation for how to die, sometimes the illness itself changes the math. Join us for a conversation about dignity, closure, and the grace required to honor someone else's choice—even when it hurts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

I found a super strong & powerful post that got me fired up and it only has seven words to it. This came from the Power of Positivity (@LIVEpositivity) “Strong people rarely have an easy past.”  As I got to thinking about this, I started seeing myself in a way that I usually don't see myself at all.  I realize I'm a lot stronger than I give myself credit for due to the “storms” I have been through.  It also occurred to me that I am a lot stronger and better because of the storms that my loved ones have gone through as well. This episode I got a bit fired up and emotional (I know, big surprise… LOL) as I really started to see myself and my loved ones in not only a different light, but a much stronger & clearer light too!! I hope this episode shows you about the true statement from Morrie Schwartz, from Mitch Albom's “Tuesdays With Morrie” - where he reminded us that “death ends a life, not a relationship.” If we keep working on our relationships in life, and not what the world tells us is important, we will keep getting stronger for sure.   Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

I have been using Seek Wiser (@SeekWiser_) to share some of the thoughts and ideas that get posted on a frequent basis. I'm going with my heart and gut as to sharing thoughts & ideas to inspire and get people thinking about things that can make their lives a bit better. This post said this: “Humans were designed to create. This is why you get depressed when all you do is consume.”  This one connected directly to one of the biggest difference makers in my life, and I shared that in my repost comments for this:  “…  my first thought when I read this.. @MitchAlbom sharing the story of Morrie telling Mitch that taking from others made him feel like he was dying. Giving to others made him feel like he was living!!”  Things like this are what I need to keep around me as reminders for how I want to live my life!!  Thanks for listening.  Please take a few moments to subscribe & share this with someone, also leave a 5 Star rating on Apple Podcasts and ITunes or other services where you find this show.  Find me on Facebook:  https://www.facebook.com/coachtoexpectsuccess/   on Twitter / “X”:  @coachtosuccess   and on Instagram at:  @coachjohndaly  - My YouTube Channel is at: Coach John Daly.   Email me at: CoachJohnDalyPodcast@gmail.com     You can also head on over to https://www.coachtoexpectsuccess.com/ and get in touch with me there on my homepage along with checking out my Top Book list too.  Other things there on my site are being worked on too.  Please let me know that you are reaching out to me from my podcast.

On this week's Tuesday People podcast, we explore the power of kindness and giving. Too often, we hesitate—negotiating our time, effort, or resources before deciding to help. But true giving isn't about what we lose; it's about the love and connection we gain. Think back to a time when someone helped you—how that kindness made you feel. Now, carry that feeling forward the next time you encounter someone in need. Join host Mitch Albom and producer Lisa Goich as we reflect on the importance of erring on the side of generosity, the unseen ways it changes lives, and the words of Morrie Schwartz that carry on to this day, "Giving is living."  Learn more about your ad choices.

What comes to mind when you hear the phrase "a clean slate"? Maybe it conjures an image of fresh, untrodden snow—a bright white canvas untouched by the past. A new year offers that same sense of possibility: a reset button, a chance to rewrite your story, redefine your values, and set new intentions. It's an opportunity to step forward with a renewed perspective, leaving behind the weight of old mistakes or regrets. In this episode of the Tuesday People podcast, host Mitch Albom—along with wisdom from his former professor, Morrie Schwartz—explores what it means to begin again, and how embracing a clean slate can help us live with more purpose and clarity. As we step into this new chapter, consider what you'll leave behind—and more importantly, what you'll carry forward into the life you're building. A new year, a new start, and a new chance to become the best version of yourself. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Over 20 million copies of one of the most famous memoirs of all-time, “Tuesdays with Morrie: An Old Man, a Young Man, and Life's Greatest Lesson” written by Mitch Albom, have been sold since its 1997 publication, and to this day it remains on many a college's required reading list.  Twenty-eight years after Morrie Schwartz passed away, his son Rob Schwartz, has edited his father's last work, and posthumously published what has become a bestselling new book, “The Wisdom of Morrie: Living and Aging Creatively and Joyfully.”  Rob is a journalist and entrepreneur, having founded a number of companies, both in Japan and the US, and held executive positions in others. He's produced numerous film and music projects with international teams. His areas of expertise include the entertainment industries in Asia, the US, and Europe. His projects often have a special emphasis on music, film, online business development, and developing musical artists' careers, as well as working for Billboard in Asia.  He has appeared on Good Morning America, Nightline, PBS NewsHour, NBC10 Boston, and in WebMD, Psychology Today, Reader's Digest, and People magazine. Rob is currently one of the producers of Onetopia, a benefit music festival. I asked Rob what it was like growing-up in the in the Schwartz household along with his work and background, and what took him to Asia and his work there as a founder, journalist, and in production.  The book's been described as a profound, poetic, and poignant masterpiece of living and aging joyfully and creatively, but he first starts off examining ageism and explaining how poisonous it is and how wrong it is. In his reflections he confronts the false notion that people are somehow made less by the aging process, and his coining the term “age casting,” as an aspect of ageism and diminishing a person's value solely based on their age. We wrapped-up our conversation with him sharing a bit about his efforts in producing a global benefit festival dedicated to mental health and has a playlist on Spotify. He's also working on the development of Holocaust survivors' story as a documentary as well.  Rob's perspectives, work and life serve as an inspiration to us all to live our lives in full.

Through words of wisdom from Morrie Schwartz, we learn how he coped with envy, especially in his final days. By finding contentment with what we have we can learn how to cultivate gratitude and peace in our daily lives.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Mitch Albom wrote the first book. Rob Schwartz lived the reality. What reality?  Morrie Schwartz… you know, Tuesdays With Morrie, was Rob's dad. Almost thirty years after his dad died, Rob has released a book: The Wisdom of Morrie: Living and Aging Creatively and Joyfully – manuscripts he found in his dad's desk years after Morrie had passed. I ask Rob about his dad, Morrie and also about his Mom, Charlotte.  I love the warmth and pride in his voice when he speaks of them. He gets emotional at one point – it's such emphasis that love does last forever, even if the body is gone. Rob and I discuss Morrie's advice for living a long and happy life, the concept of ‘tension of opposites'… and if you're thinking those subjects sound a little esoteric, let me assure you, he is his father's son and Rob keeps the conversation real, and in the present. I think you'll find the “personal question” part of this conversation really interesting!

Mitch Albom is the author of books that have sold more than 40 million copies, including eight New York Times number one best-sellers. Several are considered classics like Tuesdays with Morrie and The Five People You Meet in Heaven. Appearing on The Spark Thursday, Albom talked about his latest book -- a novel called The Little Liar,"The Little Liar is a novel set during World War II, narrated by the Voice of Truth. And the little liar is actually a boy who lives in a Greek city who, until he's 11, has never told a lie in his life. And there's a little girl in the town who loves him for it. And then when the Nazis invade, they discover his reputation and they decide to use him as a weapon. And they trick him into standing on the railroad tracks and telling all the people in his town that the trains are going to new homes and new jobs and that everything's going to be good and they should get on them. And he does this thinking, telling the truth and believing that if he does this, they'll let him go back to his family. And only on the very last day does he see his family and the little girl shoved into a boxcar and he finds out that these trains are actually going out, but in the concentration camp and he realizes that the first lie that he's ever told in life is actually going to be the worst lie he's ever going to tell. And the book follows him and the little girl and the family for the next 40 years and shows the consequences of that single lie on that single day and how it affected him, the girl, the family, even the Nazi who tricked him. It ultimately becomes a story about forgiveness and hope against that backdrop. But has the question of the truth and how precious the truth is and what happens when we pervert it." When asked whether the timing of the book's release was influenced by the misinformation and disinformation we're subjected to everyday, Albom responded,"I can't take any credit for the fact that it comes out during a time when suddenly anti-Semitism and echoes of the past are prevalent. Because I started a couple of years ago, no one would have known that. But but I did know that we live in a time where people are choosing their own truth and, they listen to one cable TV channel and don't listen to any of the others, or they read one paper, they follow one through social media thing. And we live in a time where at that famous expression goes a lie told once is easily seen as a lie, but a lie told a thousand times becomes the truth. And, we see how quickly on the Internet and in social media and Twitter and the like, how a single lie can be shot across the world before truth gets its pants on. And and so I thought this is absolutely a time for a book narrated by the Voice of Truth that talks about -- look at what you're doing to me. Look at how you're ruining me and destroying me." Beginning with his book Tuesdays With Morrie, Albom has been viewed as one of the world's iconic writers. Here's what he said about his writing career,"I've had a very fortunate career and it's been very varied. And I meet people who say, Oh, I just knew you from ESPN, I didn't even know you wrote books. And these other people say, I only know you from your books. I didn't even know you covered sports. And so I've had a lot of different lives, but I've been very blessed to meet some very influential people like Morrie Schwartz, who was the story of Tuesdays with Morrie. And I think that that was kind of a turning point in my life when I was able to sit with a man who was dying from Lou Gehrig's disease and hear what was important in life and what wasn't once he was going to die. And I never forgot those lessons that I wrote. I wrote that book not to become a bestseller. I wrote it to help pay his medical bills and to have something personal for me to remember. And the fact that it became a big bestseller was sort of accidental. But it also taught me that those themes are really important to people, and I've been writing books that sort of touch on them ever since. And the fact that they find a wide audience is a blessing. But, I don't think it's me. I think it's the themes that I write about. And, that's why people embrace the work."  Support WITF: https://www.witf.org/support/give-now/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

EdLeader Podcast host Dr. Rob Jackson might just be a closet bibliophile, someone who has a great love of books. Occasionally he enjoys returning to touchstone texts or timeless tomes, those books that shaped him early in his career and life and bringing them forward, spending time again with the words, thoughts, and reflections that moved him then and move him still.This latest episode is just that, a return to a treasured book. The book, Tuesdays with Morrie, became a runaway bestseller 26 years ago. It was made into a movie and a Broadway play and is said to have changed millions of lives. A successful young man made a series of trips to visit his college professor almost twenty years after graduating. The professor, Morrie Schwartz, was in the final weeks of his life as he was gradually overtaken by ALS, more commonly known as Lou Gehrig's Disease. The book recounts the fourteen Tuesday visits the young man, Mitch Albom, made, their conversations, Morrie's lectures, and his life experiences. In his final days, the professor taught his student, and all of us how to die, and consequently, how to live.He said, “The most important thing in life is to learn how to give out love, and to let it come in.”In this episode, Dr. Jackson is beyond honored and excited to welcome another young man and his mentor to the podcast. They read and shared this book with each other and then shared it with Dr. Jackson. In his hands, it felt familiar, it felt timeless.Regardless of what day of the week it is as you listen to this, pretend it is Tuesday. Let's join Morrie and Mitch, and these two guests, let's imagine opening the worn pages of this beloved book and in Morrie's words, “Let it come in.”The professor said, “As long as we can love each other, and remember the feeling of love we had, we can die without ever really going away. All the love you created is still there. All the memories are still there. You live on—in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here.” As EdLeaders, you will live on in the hearts of everyone you have touched and nurtured while you were here.Dr. Rob Jackson on TwitterEdLeader Podcast on TwitterElijah Jackson on Twitter

Tuesdays With Morrie is the bestselling memoir of all time. Rob Schwartz, Morrie's son, discovered an unpublished manuscript in his father's desk drawer years after his death. Rob recently published this incredible book, The Wisdom of Morrie, and he joins the Good Mood Show this week to discuss the deep wisdom of his father.  Learn how to live fully in the present moment and appreciate the beauty of life. Rob teaches us about forgiveness, compassion, and strengthening relationships. When we have strong relationships with others who love and support us, it fulfills us at a deep level. It brings meaning and purpose to our lives, and it improves our wellbeing and happiness. You will come away from this episode with a greater understanding and appreciation for what it means to be human.  Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  The importance of strengthening human relationships How to appreciate the beauty of life What it means to stay human Why the most beautiful time in life is now [07:14] The Importance of Strengthening Human Relationships When we have strong relationships with others who love and support us, it fulfills us at a deep level. It brings meaning and purpose to our lives, and it improves our wellbeing and happiness. Our relationships provide opportunities for growth, as we learn how to be more empathetic, compassionate, and understanding of others. As Morrie Schwartz said, "Love is how you stay alive even after you're gone." The impact we have on others through strong relationships can continue long after we're gone. [13:50] What It Means to Stay Human To stay human means to stay true to the qualities that make us distinctly human - our capacity for love, compassion, empathy, creativity, and spirituality. It means relating to others in a genuine, authentic way and connecting deeply with their humanity. It means appreciating beauty, art, and joy. It means living in accordance with higher human values like kindness, honesty and integrity. In essence, to stay human is to avoid becoming hardened, cynical or indifferent. It is to remain open-hearted, thoughtful, and connected to others and to the world around us. [16:51] The Most Beautiful Time in Life is Now Now is the most beautiful time in life because it is the only time we truly have to experience life fully. The past is gone and the future is uncertain, so all we really have is this present moment. When we live fully in the now, we develop a greater appreciation for the beauty that surrounds us. As we age and gain wisdom, we realize how precious each moment is. Understanding our own impermanence and mortality makes us value our time while we are still alive. Living in the present allows us to have more meaningful connections and be fully present with the people we love right now. Now is the only time we can act with purpose and express our values. So in essence, now is the most beautiful time in life because it is the only time we have to truly live, love, experience joy, and appreciate the gift of being alive. Notable quotes: [16:51] It's always now. The past and the future don't exist. So the most beautiful time in life has to be now because it's the only time.

On this episode of  I'm Dying To Tell You Podcast, I talk to Rob Schwartz son of Morrie Schwartz from the classic book Tuesdays with Morrie.  We chat about the newly released book, “The Wisdom of Morrie.”   The book was written by Morrie Schwartz, recently edited and released by Rob.  The number one bestseller Tuesdays with Morrie was written from conversations with author Mitch Albom after Morrie was sick and knew he was in the process of dying from ALS.   However, this newly released book, The Wisdom of Morrie was written by Morrie before he was diagnosed ALS.   Rob rediscovered this manuscript that Morrie wrote about staying vibrant and connected for life.  Morrie explores living and aging joyfully and creatively.  Later life can be filled with many challenges, but it can also be one of the most beautiful and rewarding passages in anyone's lifetime.  Morrie draws on his experiences as a social psychologist, teacher, father, friend, and sage to offer us a road map to navigate our futures.  I hope you'll listen in and hear more from Morrie all these years later.  Hugs, Lorri
