Chapter 98: IN-Q invites intimacy, intentionality, and interstellar inquiry

I'm very pleased, privileged, and proud to introduce or re-introduce you to the sunbeaming sage that is IN-Q.   IN-Q is an award winning poet, multi-platinum song-writer and the bestselling author of the book Inquire Within which I highly, highly recommend. It deserves an even bigger spotlight! It's a wonderful collection of IN-Q's poetry. Poetry? Oh yes. Oh, oh yes.   His achievements include being named to Oprah's Super Soul 100 list of the world's most influential thought leaders, being the first spoken word artist to perform with Cirque du Soleil, and being featured in HBO's Def Poetry Jam. His poetry on YouTube has gotten over 100 million views and if you want to check out his work in deeper format I recommend his Amazon Prime exclusive IN-Q Live at the Ace Theatre.   He's also a songwriter. He has written songs for Foster the People, Miley Cyrus and Selena Gomez. If you know the song, "Love you Like a Love Song," that's him. He wrote that song. It went multi-platinum and won INQ a BMI award. You wouldn't know by talking to this chill and humble spirit that songs he's written have over a billion views.   What is this guy all about?   What inspires him? What can we learn from his walk through this world … and bring into our own?   IN-Q entertains, inspires, and challenges audiences … including our own.   3 Bookers, please get comfortable on the couch between us to talk about time, God, slowing down, moving energy, traveling solo, love, the metaverse and, of course, IN-Q's 3 most formative books.   I hope you enjoy this conversation.   Let's flip the page into Chapter 98 now…   What You'll Learn: What does it mean to live in the now? What is time? What is God? How do we slow time down? How can we reconnect with the deeper wisdom of living in the now? How should we move energy? Why is it so important to put intention into our actions? Why should we regularly check back in with our goals? Why is traveling solo so powerful? Why should we make time to be alone? Why is choice so empowering? How can we travel in our own cities? What is love? What will it be like to live in a meta universe? What are the risks of living in a fully animated world? What is Life's purpose? Why is the world actually one? Why should people share art?   You can find show notes and more information by clicking here: https://www.3books.co/chapters/98   Leave us a voicemail.
