Think about a time when you followed your gut and made a choice that was less than obvious to everyone but you. Maybe you were nervous, but you had the courage to throw everyone's advice out the window and push forward into what seemed right. Or maybe a time when you someone else's less than obvious choice, and you had to live up to the trust they've put in you. What happened next? Were you a heroor did it all blow up in your face? Were lessons learned or did it ultimately mean nothing?Jim McDonald (former co-host and producer of the PowerCast and an MBA) talks to the well-known and the unknown about those pivots toward a less-travelled road, how decisions were made, and how it all turned out.

Derek McCormick | Tea Time with the Reaper | S2 E1
Tuesday, 22 October, 2019
The Less than Obvious podcast returns with a second season of new episodes once a month. Derek’s wife Angela died of cancer in 2017. In 2018, he released his book, “Tea Time with the Reaper,” which sketched a heartbreaking portrait of their lives together, her illness, and her death. While living through this difficult process, it became abundantly clear to him that as a society we have an unhealthy relationship with our own mortality -- and by extension death in general. His less than obvious decision was to tell Angela’s story in a way that illuminates the ways that facing the reality of death can help us get better at dealing with life. Derek and I both share stories of mortality, loss, and learning how to carry on. You can find Derek and Tea Time with the Reaper on social media as @teatimewiththereaper at teatimewiththereaper.com, and the podcast on Apple Podcasts which provides “a platform for those who have had a loved one taken. for those who have been face to face with a terminal illness. face to face with unexpected death. and then forced to live with its aftermath.” Host: Jim McDonald (@thejimmcd).
