“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people exist, that is all.”

Oscar Wilde

We're back with yet another installment of Ask Me Anything — a twist on my normal format where we answer questions submitted by you, the listener.

In addition to recapping our recent visit to Washington, D.C. and our upcoming trip to Frankfurt, Germany, this week Julie and I traverse a variety of subjects, including:

* the release of “Proteinaholic” by Garth Davis, MD

* ‘happy traveler' – my experiments in gratitude

* the risk calculus of choosing security over passion

* the persistent illusion of the “do-over” life

* combating the “fundraising oxymoron”

* the nexus (or lack thereof) between diet and addiction

The show concludes with My Man, written and performed by Julie — aka SriMati – accompanied by our sons Tyler & Trapper Piatt.

Special thanks to Scott, Lisa & Dallas for today’s questions, as well as everyone who submitted inquiries — keep ‘em coming!

I sincerely hope you enjoy the conversation.

Peace + Plants,
