Sage Warrior Gentleman - Three Facets of the Modern Man

I met Nancy a few months ago at the art gallery of a mutual friend and decided almost immediately that I wanted to interview her for this podcast. She has a quick wit and can take a conversation in many directions, creating the pivot or following one to an interesting outcome. This was an honor for me to speak to such an intelligent and wise woman and I believe you'll enjoy this talk immensely.
Bio:
Dr. Nancy Rogers is an alum of the PhD program at the University of Cincinnati where she also teaches. Her work in academia has won awards from the Cincinnati Psychological Association and the American Evaluation Association, and her work with students won her the Barber Award for Good Faculty/Student Relations.

She recently completed a graduate certificate in Teaching English to Second Language Learners, which will aide in her passion for teaching overseas. She doesn’t mind the traveling part either. When Dr. Rogers is not working you can find her bowling, fiddling, trying some artistic endeavor, looking for a new pastime, booking flights and calling her kids.
Please enjoy and share - there are great lessons to be learned here.
Best,
Jeff

This brought him the honor to perform with orchestras throughout Germany as well as the Salzburg Philharmoniker in Austria.

When he’s not fostering community at Comfort Station, you can find him on one of Cincinnati’s many public golf courses, or at any of the great bars in the area. He can also be found in the kitchen, experimenting with ingredients for delicious late night meals and new concoctions for the bar.

SWG Season 2 Episode 1 - Aaron Boyle Interviews Me

If you recall, Aaron Boyle was my podcast guest in Episode 46. A few weeks after that aired - yeah it's been a while and I apologize - he hit me with the idea of turning the tables and interviewing me.
Just like in the first, this is a great interview that you'll get a lot from. Aaron is a fantastic interviewer and one of the reasons he and I can have these easy conversations is because of how brilliant he is.
He digs into some things that helped me get this started, and a few things I haven't thought about in a while so like all the other episodes, I believe this is one you'll get a lot from.
Enjoy and please help me spread the word about these lessons on life.
