Everyone of us has two things in us that are deep On this episode of Heartbeat, the.Podcast Landon suggests that everyone has a certain kind of Wisdom within them — the Wisdom that it takes to make good decisions.

Get in touch with these two things and connecting with others will change every day. Enjoy!
In this episode, Landon continues the thoughts he began sharing in the last episode on “how to start a day.” Today, he suggests a package of six “Day Starters” — ways to joyfully unwrap the “only package teh gift of life comes in” — a day.
Most of us, sooner or later, come to realize that every day is a gift — one that is far too precious to take for granted or throw away. On this episode of the Podcast Landon takes this idea a bit further, suggesting that a day is the only package the gift of life comes in. With this in mind, this is Part One of “How to Start a Day.”
Landon Saunders has a few choice words for you on this episode! Encouraging words, that is. Whether it be children, significant other, a friend or colleague, or even a stranger, the power of the right word at the right time has long been recognized. From the spiritual realm to the scientific arena, there is historical significance in the value of the right word in the midst of life's journey. In the last few minutes of this episode, Landon unleashes a series of encouraging words for specific moments in your unfolding life.
In this episode, Landon Saunders discusses fear and its impact on our lives. He says that fear can paralyze us, or we can use it as a tool to light our way. Love is presented as the antidote to fear, as it is stronger and more powerful. Loneliness may be a signal that we afraid of love. When it comes to the storms of fear, Landon suggests that love is the only thing that can cast fear out.
We all have the same basic problem: each of us is a member of the human race! Problems are simply a fact of life. In this episode Landon suggests that there is no doubt that we can enjoy life even with our problems. All that is required is that instead of simply stewing over them, we need to realize that we can choose our problems. And, more than that, we can choose how they impact our day — from how we think about them to a few practical tactics for dealing with them. Dive in, and explore a few ideas on how to respond to something that is baked into our humanity.
During his fifty years of work, Landon frequently met with various types of leadership teams. Today’s episode features a portion of one such session. And the topic asks the question, what makes our work, our relationships and the entirety of life meaningful. What is a life actually for? As life whirls around us and it is difficult to keep up with all that is changing, a clear understanding of what all of this is for seems critical. Drop in on the conversation. And enjoy.
