: Episode 1117 – Listener Pat Bell joins Vinnie this Saturday to discuss helpful phone consults, Vinnie sightings, becoming comfortable in your own skin, experiencing nature, the importance of “why”, and more!
PHONE CONSULTS
- Pat has done two consults
- Both paid for by her son
- The first consult was a surprise for Pat
- Pat originally got on board because her son introduced NSNG to her
- One of the highlights of phone consults is it validates, clarifies, defines and refines what you’re trying to do
- Helps you become comfortable in your own skin
- For some people, that’s losing 5 lbs, for another, 150 lbs
EXPERIENCING NATURE
- Nature is entertainment enough
- It is Vinnie’s idea of religion
- It should be awe-inspiring and jaw-dropping
- Pat is a teacher, likes to give people reasons to notice the importance of activities — such as enjoying nature
- If folks are not ready to learn or listen, it becomes very difficult to teach
- Encouraging asking questions is important
- Vinnie’s nephews were on the John Muir trail and were too busy looking at their watches and phones during the hike
- Vinnie just wished they appreciated the experience more because it really is the experience of the lifetime
- The ocean is also the wilderness
- Pat is an ocean lover
- So is Vinnie, particularly now that he’s ocean kayaking
- When you walk into nature, it is a whole new world
- Particularly in the ocean, especially since you cannot see a lot of what is going on below the water
- A pretty cool realization
- Many don’t realize what is out there until they experience it themselves
