Nothing is carved in stone. Everything can be expanded and developed.

Welcome to the One You Feed. Throughout time, great thinkers have recognized the importance

of the thoughts we have, quotes like garbage in, garbage out, or you are what you think,

ring true, and yet for many of us our thoughts don't strengthen or empower us. We tend toward

negativity, self-pity, jealousy, or fear. We see what we don't have instead of what we do.

We think things that hold us back and dampen our spirit. But it's not just about thinking.

Our actions matter. It takes conscious, consistent, and creative effort to make a life worth living.

This podcast is about how other people keep themselves moving in the right direction,

how they feed their good wolf.

Hi, it's Elvis Jaran on my new podcast, Thinking Out Loud with Elvis Jaran. I'll be bringing you

candid and maybe sometimes a little crazy interviews with people from all walks of life.

We'll touch on subjects that you just can't talk about on the radio, like life, love, success,

failure, whatever else comes to mind. But I'll jacked up because after being in this business for

as long as I have, I want to get to the bottom of what makes people tick. And listen to my new podcast,

Thinking Out Loud on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
