Episode 40: Letshego Zulu, Author of 'I Choose to Live: Life After Losing Gugu'
I CHOOSE TO LIVE. There are some books that touch your heart in a very special way. The message just stays with you. Letshego's memoir of her late husband Gugulethu Zulu was one of those books for me. I knew after I finished the final page that I wanted to have her on my podcast. One of the quotes in her book is "If Not, Why Not". I later learned that this is the quote that prompted her to say yes to being a houseguest on the podcast. Letshego takes us on a journey of adventure, love, loss and her decision to choose life even after losing her husband. The book teaches us how to be resilient after loss; the loss of a loved one, a job, a business, a dream or whatever the loss is that we are experiencing.
We want to give away this book to 5 listeners. If you want a copy of this book all you have to do is leave a review, take a screenshot and dm me on Instagram @iamportiascott.

THIS IS INNOVATION. This is our final episode in Season 4. Every episode was recorded right before or in the midst of COVID-19 and our house guests still showed up to tell their stories. Life happens and there are so many things we can't control but what we can control is the decision to pivot when we need and not allow our circumstances to determine our perspective.

I tried hard to remember the emotions from that day, even that time period, and I couldn't. We have tough moments and seasons but they don't last forever and sometimes we even forget what the pain felt like.

Episode 15: Singing In The Rain
SEEDS OF GREATNESS. I am off preparing for a 10-day vacation to South Africa where it all started. Sitting in my place is our resident houseguest, John Henry Scott III. This week's episode was inspired by a quote by the incomparable Langston Hughes - "Let the rain kiss you. Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops. Let the rain sing you a lullaby." We all contain seeds of greatness, seeds of uniqueness and significance inside of us but it is our responsibility to allow those seeds to be watered. Without rain, what is invested will not come to fruition. Listen as John gives us acrostics for the words 'rain' and 'sing' that will help us understand the importance of allowing our seeds to be watered.

Parenting is one of the most rewarding opportunities we get in life, but it's not always easy. We all need a reminder that we are doing a good job. In this episode I discuss 5 parenting lessons:
* You don’t have to be a biological parent to have kids.
* Parenting is not one-size-fits-all.
* Parenting is one of the hardest things.
* Parenting is one of life's most rewarding opportunities.

Episode 8: #ThisIsForty (Part 1)
EXPOSURE OPENS IMAGINATION. This episode is a special one because I am turning 40 next week and I wanted to do a series that speaks to the small steps we take today that change our tomorrow. One of the lessons I have learned is to look at people as humans. It is this simple act that allows us to open our minds to different experiences, different innovation and endless possibilities.
Exposure opens your imagination but we can't do it staying within our own bubbles. I know it's comforting to stay where we look, think and act like the people around us but if we want to see real innovation, expansion and imagine beyond what we see, it takes exposure.

These moments happen to all of us but it is in these moments when we have to make a decision to go forward even in the midst of adversity.
In this episode, I talk about how I had to go back to my own starting line. We all need a reminder that even though we skin our knees, we can still keep going. It's taking those small steps even if you have to start crawling that matters.

Espresso Shot (Bonus Episode): Just Do It!
SHOW UP, EMBRACE YOUR UNIQUENESS AND EXECUTE INTENTIONALLY. This podcast was launched on July 27th, 2019. Our goal was to have 100 plays within the first seven days of the launch, and we reached that in one day. What I know is you can’t accomplish anything alone. We were able to hit our goal and exceed it by 165% because of everyone who listened and shared. This special episode is my Thank You!

Episode 3: Mr. & Mrs. Scott
A SYMBOL OF THE JOURNEY. In this episode I had the awesome opportunity to sit down with our very first houseguest, John Henry Scott III. John and I have been married for 13 years and I could listen to his story over and over again and wanted to share it with you. John takes us on his journey of being homeless at 5, finding out he would be a teenage father at 15, giving up a Stanford education to becoming one of the youngest Vice Presidents in his organization.

As always waking up is automatic, showing up is intentional. Today I Will...Show Up!
