What motivates people? Why do they do what they do? What does leadership actually mean in today’s world? Good questions, right? That’s what Cathy Brooks, thought. And it’s why she created Talk, Unleashed – a podcast of candid conversation. Sometimes as commentary. Sometimes as discussions with fascinating people doing remarkable things. Topics range widely and all of them have one thing in common. Dogs.
Cathy Brooks hosts Talk, Unleashed, a education show with 213 episodes published.

Every relationship has a season. Every. Single. One. You’ve probably heard the phrase - “reason, season or lifetime” - the idea that some folks come into our lives for a moment, others for a period of time and when we’re

Well hey. It's been a hot minute. A month, actually. Between my amazing producer's jammed schedule and my own we opted for something of a break ... good to be back. This week on the podcast - the things that technology j

Henry David Thoreau spent just a bit over two years at Walden Pond. He removed himself entirely from civilization and then returned with a viewpoint that reverberates today. I'm in a bit of my own On Walden Pond time, as

Springtime means a lot of things when you live in the woods. The wildlife is the best part. Except for the bugs — and Virginia’s insect community is epic. Mosquitos that could carry away small children sort of thing. It

I’m not sure I’ll ever come to an end of learning where nature is concerned. She seems an infinite source teaching. The best part is that the lessons are ones I began as a kid; and which managed to stay fresh despite my

I don’t sit still very easily or very often. At least not naturally. My natural resting state is something around Mach 5, so learning to be still to be in the moment without needing to do anything, it’s taken practice. O

DUE TO A SLIGHT PRODUCTION BACKLOG, THIS WEEK WE'RE REPEATING ONE OF OUR MOST POPULAR EPISODES - OUR FIRST INTERVIEW WITH RENOWNED DOG TRAINER, MICHAEL SHIHKASHIO. BACK NEXT WEEK WITH NEW AND GROOVY STUFF ... ENJOY! In t

I never know whether to be amused or pissed off when people take a word that has importance and value and turn it into something other than what it is. Like boundaries. On the one hand a deeply overindulged society rails

Another episode inspired by the Venerable Monks and the Walk for Peace. This week - a simple concept that cuts through complexity. The simplicity, and complexity of inner peace. It’s easy to be swept up by circumstances

There are few things that will torpedo my sense of serenity faster, than traffic. And I know I’m not alone. Now imagine hundreds of people, at night, it’s dark and very cold. The road is narrow, crowded and there are pil

I don’t know when I heard the phrase for the first time - “When the student is ready the teacher appears.” I do know I didn’t have much of a clue what it really meant until much later. I guess you don’t know until you kn

For dogs mindfulness isn’t really a thing. Mostly because it’s just how they are. It’s the very foundation of their existence. Humans, however? Not so much. In another episode inspired by the Venerable Monks and the Walk

I don’t want to ruin the humor of the story - but let’s just say that in this week’s episode, I share wisdom from Venerable Bhikkhu Pannakara (the monk who initiated the recent Walk for Peace across the US). That wisdom

Boy do I wish the episode were an actual interview with Aloka. No doubt he’d have magnificent wisdom to share. Who’s Aloka? Great question. If you didn’t follow the recent Walk for Peace - he’s the dog who accompanied th

Peace, doesn’t sell. We may click on kindness, but overall cash follows cruelty. If it bleeds, it leads. That famous practice (allegedly started by an editor of The Miami Herald in Miami, FL) for “real” media. Take away

No small irony that sh*t in some shape or form has dominated this year’s episodes. Quite a lot of crap in the world these days. This week, it’s a look at crap in - crap out. How I start a thing, is how I continue a thing

Emotional Support Animals are bullsh*t. I said it. If you’re feeling a certain way about what I’ve just said - defensive, perhaps - this episode is definitely for you. This is about emotional self-regulation, about how a

Just saw a video the other day. It was one of those “man on the street” things. The interviewer was asking passers-by what they thought of statements that had been made by a specific political person. Their responses - c

Not sure whether this is just a human thing or a particularly American/Western thing these days, but it sure feels like there’s a whole lot of overcorrection going on. And yet, there also are times where it feels like a

Last week I talked about stepping in sh*t. This week is about cleaning that sh*t up. Literally. If the metaphor of stepping in a pile of dog poop is metaphor for responsibility, then what does it mean to avoid tracking i
