Chats with Clark
"I'm a mindset guy," I often tell people when describing the content of the podcast. During a "Chats with Clark" episode, you will engage a conversation about mindsets and ideas that actually matter in the world. At the end of each episode, I hope that all of us are better than we were before thinking about the topics of that day.
My underlying theme is gratitude. "If you want to be happier, live more gratefully," I contend. Take a listen and find out why "Chats with Clark" will enrich your mind and your soul throughout each episode; the only regret will be not having done so sooner.
