Episode 97 - The Fruits of Your Labor

On today's episode of the Tuesday People podcast, Mitch Albom interviews musician, Lanny Cordola. Lanny is the founder of a group based in Afghanistan called The Miraculous Love Kids. The organization was created around the premise that “it shouldn’t hurt to be a child.” That a kid with a melody in their heart has hope, and with hope all things are possible. Since 2010, Lanny has followed the songline from Karachi to Kabul in his quest to help give a voice to kids living in poverty-stricken areas and war zones. He has collaborated with musicians from Slash, Brian Wilson, Sammy Hagar, Tom Morello, Kathy Valentine, Wayne Kramer, Donovan Leitch, Mark McGrath, Gina Gershon and Sen Dog from Cypress Hill — all with the aim of raising awareness, resources and funds for some of the poorest children in Afghanistan and Pakistan. In his travels, Lanny has had the good fortune to listen, learn, play for, jam with and teach many of these Miraculous Love Kids.

When faced with adversity, challenging life situations or crippling news, the first step in climbing out of moments of great distress is to concentrate on getting one thing done. One simple thing.

On today's episode of the Tuesday People podcast, host Mitch Albom discusses this topic, using Morrie's personal words of wisdom as a guide. If you're facing a major life event right now, remember that the beginning of rising is stopping the fall. And rather than trying to do everything all at once to piece your life back together, take it one thing at a time. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Episode 92 - Don't Procrastinate Your Life Away

On today's Tuesday People podcast we discuss graduations. Why do they stop after college? Why shouldn't there be the same type of recognition for similar moments in life? Shouldn't all meaningful passages we go through end with some sort of celebration of our successful transition? Inspired by a recent graduation at Mitch's Have Faith Haiti Mission & Orphanage, Mitch believes we should give ourselves more credit as adults for starting something, reaching the end of that phase, and - when we do - treat ourselves to a ceremony worthy of a cap and gown!  Learn more about your ad choices.

Sudden death. It's nothing we ever prepare for, nor is it the sort of death most people think about when they picture themselves at the end of their lives.

With martial law being declared, borders closed and a mandatory lockdown issued, the outcome for all was uncertain. Mitch remembered the Buddhist story that Morrire shared about the bird on the shoulder. Every day you ask the bird, "Is today the day that I die?" If the bird says yes, you must ask yourself if you are prepared. Are we ever prepared? How do we know when we are ready? Please join us for this very important episode.
