1001 #12minconvos in 12 weeks starting from January 12th to April 2019 , with AMAZING people from all over the world.
The morning started at 5:08am. After 3 hours rest I got up excited.
My first guest would be Shawn Maile, Chief Operating Officer at Caribbean Entrepreneur. Shawn is located in Antigua and Barbuda, which meant our time zones were the same. You could hear the chickens crowing the same way they were crowing where I am in Trinidad. It was great having a #12minconvo with my Caribbean neighbour to start the morning.

Off to a strong start after only one cancellation, I connected with Angelos Karageorgos-Writer/Podcaster at AngeloKarageorgos.com. Angelos is located in London, United Kingdom. Blogging and Podcasting about Nature's Harmony and how we Humans can get closer to our Real Selves with Care not to limit all this Grace in Labels. It was challenging to keep Angelos to 12 mins. His travel has given him an overflowing cup of content to share with the world. I look forward to a face to face conversation with him in the future. More to come on his #12minconvos podcast #2107.

Running a bit off schedule I quickly connected with Debbie DiPietro- Author, Social Media Specialist, Public Speaker, and Host of the Popular Podcast for Women, Courageously Go!™ She is located in Jacksonville, Florida. Debbie is fun, fun , fun. Over 50 and doing a ton of things while remaining balanced through being organized. She beautifully said that everything in life starts with you having courage.

With the power of technology and by the click of a button my voice was magically teleported to Dallas, Texas to connect virtually with Willie Baronet- Artist, Professor, Curious Dreamer. Willie has been buying and collecting homeless signs since 1993 as part of a long term art project "WE ARE ALL HOMELESS." In 2014 he began a 31-day cross country trip to buy signs in 24 cities, which was the subject of the documentary Signs of Humanity, which premiered at the Dallas International Film Festival and has been accepted into 6 additional festivals.

I connected with 6 more AMAZING people.
Matt Sandrini- Business Productivity Coach residing in London, Greater London, United Kingdom. Matt spoke about how pausing friendship, pausing relationships for the big goal is something that has to be considered carefully. Matt helps you work effectively on the right things in the right time. I loved his earliest childhood memory of the sandbox gift given to him by his Father.

From the UK to San Diego, California to speak with Richard Chapo- Internet Lawyer for Businesses Operating Online - DMCA, Privacy, TOS, FTC Compliance, Hockey Fan. Richard is the coolest lawyer I have ever spoken to. From the get go he brought value sharing a small piece of advice if you are selling online. Richard spoke of his emphasis on being intentional about the service he offers. The small things like replying to clients within 24hrs. More to come on his #12minconvos podcast #2111.

Playing tag virtually all over the world , my voice was transported again from San Diego to New York to talk with Starra Kay Andrews for the second time. Previously we ran into a connection issue but this time we were good to go. Karen Auld, a very good friend that I admire tremendously for her soul vibes connected us. Starra is the author of the upcoming published book, "Bay of Darkness -A Paranormal Adventure Born From a Celtic Love Story Centuries Old. There is a theme that Starra represents that I believe and that is, It's Not Too Late. More to come on her #12minconvos podcast #2112. Sneek Peek - Her favourite song at 12 can be listened to here.
In the blink of an eye after my previous conversation I connected with Jodi Salice who is also located in New York. Jodi Salice-Graphic Designer & Rebranding Strategist. Jodi has won three American Advertising Awards, and have enjoyed all these years as an independent provider and church musician. I picked up on her singing voice when she made a sound with her voice which was hard to just let pass without asking her if she sings. More to come on her #12minconvos podcast #2113.

Saying goodbye is never easy at the end of these conversations so I usally say laters. Next, to the west to have a conversation with Mik Kersten, Founder & CEO of Tasktop, Author of Project to Product. Mik is located in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. WOW! Mik is amazingly smart. This guy learned the programming language BASIC by translating an english book on the subject into polish. Then he learned it. His approach to combining technology as extensions of who we are is pretty prolofic. More to come on his #12minconvos podcast #2114. Sneek Peek - Her favourite song at 12 can be listened to here.
Concluding my final#12minconvo podcast for the day just east of Vancouver in Calgary was Rob Deptford. Rob Debtford says, I'll coach you to redesign your career | I'll promote you with professional video | I'll be your next keynote speaker. We started off our pre-conversation with Rob interviewing me. I was 10 minutes off time for our scheduled call but he was my final #12minconvo. My exchange offer was having a relaxing pre-conversation with him. More to come on his #12minconvos podcast #2115.
