Nick Guidera is truly “Heighted” — Every time he comes back to Top Shelf Studios, he drops some serious wisdom on the mic. Honestly, this one took so long to release because it was so raw and real, I was left reflecting on Nick’s thoughts as I edited this episode. We began this episode talking about the challenges of reaching out when you need help.
Do not be scared to reach out, people truly care about you. Disagree? You’re welcome to come on and (try to) convince me otherwise.
From undressing the stereotype of a “buttoned-up” emotionless man, to telling the story of a drunken challenge to swim across a frozen pond; Saint Nick gives us a ton to be grateful about in our lives. We discussed a few heavy topics, breaking the taboo that these things aren’t as common as we think they are, especially in America with our social media obsession. We also have plenty of fun discussing how ChatGPT and other AI will threaten “good” writers and artists. This episode focuses on Gratitude, so Saint Nick was the perfect guest for this joyous Christmas episode. We end this episode with a speed round of gratitude, you won’t want to miss it.
Don’t fall into complacency; tell the people you love how much they mean to you.
Much love to all, and to all a goodnight…
