Does it Turn You On?

from The Adventure Paradox · host Cat Caldwell Myers

In this short and humorous minisode, I dive into the theme: “Yeah, but does it turn you on?” — not in a risqué way, but in the sense of what lights you up in life. I reflect on a technical hiccup (being muted on Zoom), the value of having guests who keep you accountable, and the joy of engaging in things that truly excite you. I share a story about working with my horse, Jet — how even the things we love most can sometimes be frustrating. But that’s okay. Passion isn’t about feeling good all the time; it’s about the deeper connection, joy, and purpose. I dive into what lights me up — like podcasting and hearing mind-expanding stories (yes, even one about water freezing in the shape of a hand). Those moments ignite something in me, and I invite listeners to notice what sparks that feeling for them too. Humor also plays a big role — from childhood jokes to the time a funny story landed me a radio show. I reflect on the power of humor to heal and connect, even when the jokes don’t always land (like when I once bombed a stand-up set by going way over time). It’s all part of the creative ride. Ultimately, this episode is a nudge: if listening turns you on, maybe it's time to start or guest on a podcast. Step into what excites you, and don't be afraid to be seen, heard, or even make a few people laugh along the way. 🎙️ Key Takeaways from the Minisode Follow What Lights You Up – Ask: “Does this turn me on?” What excites you is worth pursuing — even when it’s messy.Embrace the Flops – Missed cues, tech issues, awkward sets — they’re part of the process.
