The legendary Ozzy Osbourne passed away! Rick Lewis came on to break it down with us.

OZZY OSBOURNE PASSED AWAY during our show so we had to react to it. Willie B and Rick Lewis from our sister stations KBPI and The Fox respectively came on with us to discuss the icon's passing.MAYOR MIKE JOHNSTON HAS ROSE COLORED GLASSES ON If you listened to his State of the City address you would think Denver is just a ragtag little community fighting the BIG EVIL of the federal government to protect innocent people from being thrown out of the country. It was utter claptrap. It wasn't all delusional, as the Mayor touted a dropping violent crime rate and a slightly lower number of homeless people living on the streets. But he wants us to believe all the evils Denver is dealing with right now are because of the Trump administration, which is poppycock.

Rick Lewis talks about the process that led him from being a performer and corporate events speaker to hosting an online writing program. Most everyone fashions a life that is obedient to our deepest fears. We carry stories about who we are and what is possible throughout life, having made unconscious decisions in childhood that we will not engage in activities that could put us in touch with feelings such as shame or rejection. The highest expression of spirituality on some paths is to serve what is wanted and needed in the moment, but we cannot do this if constrained by stories we hold as part of our identity. Our stories remain hidden before we challenge them with action. Until then, we can only serve in the small ways that show up within our comfort zones. At a hinayana (solo path) level, telling stories about times when we have been reactive or unconscious is a way to study patterns so we can map out the territory and have an edge to act differently in the future. At a mahayana (path of service) level, sharing stories is a way to learn and develop connection and compassion. Human beings are wired to think in stories. We are designed to learn from problems and the biggest and most worthwhile problem we can take on is the spiritual path, which is about how to counter the story of separation. Telling our stories can nurture relationship and connection with ourselves and others. We can self-observe when various I's take over during storytelling. In a spiritual community, the degree of vulnerability and authenticity is set by the teacher. Most of humanity has a capacity and hunger for authenticity. The lack of acceptance of parts of ourselves that we project onto others can hold us back from being authentic. Rick Lewis is a national speaker and author of 7 Rules You Were Born to Break, The Perfection of Nothing, You Have the Right to Remain Silent, and other books.
