Setting the pace on the pursuit of happiness, this is the Ken Coleman Show, where you discover

what you were born to do and how to make it happen.

Now, helping you get unstuck and on the path to your dream job, Ken Coleman.

A warm welcome from Nashville. You are joining a conversation about who you are, what you were born to do,

where you want to be, and how you can get there.

My goodness, this Friday show is absolutely jam-packed.

But the good news is, if it just falls apart and spills out everywhere, it's just goodness from start to finish.

We've got so much coming your way. Of course, we get to your calls shortly.

We've got a conversation with Austin Cleon. Now, I have mentioned this a handful of times,

this book by Austin Cleon, steel-like an artist. It's really important.

If you haven't heard me mention it, you will. It will be constantly referred to during the life of this show.

It's really important, and you don't want to miss it. What does it mean to steel-like an artist?

I'll explain a little bit later. But if you're creating, starting, doing anything, you want to be you, you're trying to figure out what it is,

you're created to do, and we're helping you do that on a day-to-day basis.

A big part of that process of discovery and refining is to steel-like an artist.

So you're going to love this conversation. The entire show is worth just that.

We're also going to bring you good news as you do every Friday, and a quote and a question.

We're also going to start on a heavy note, because I've been holding on to this for a while.

And I think of Friday, for those of you who listen on Series XM, and those of you who may listen same day via podcast,

it's a perfect day to reflect on the heaviness of what I'm about to share with you.
