The Homesong Experiment
I’m recording these conversations because I don’t know how long I’ll get to have them.
In 2022, my family and I left North Dakota and the Air Force and moved “home” to Spokane.
We had come to feel that time matters, and we wanted to make more room for creativity, community, and feeling centered in a place with those we love.
In the years that followed, I became the recipient of unexpected gifts —
mentors and friends whose presence reshaped me in ways I couldn’t have planned.
I explored some of these themes with my friend and mentor Joe Albert through a podcast called Leading Deeply.
What eventually became clear was simple:
The conversations that mattered most
were the ones I was already having.
Homesong grew out of that.
What Homesong is…
a weekly, hour-long recorded conversation.
Two people.
No outline.
No performance.
These are conversations I would be having anyway.
Recording them is a way of staying with what matters.
Each episode is edited lightly, with care for the people in it.
Homesong lives within Flamelight Creative —
a container for creative work held in community.
These conversations are being discovered longer than they’re being shared.
I’m recording without knowing
when — or if — they’ll be ready.
There’s no rush to release them.
No obligation to produce.
Just attention, given while it’s possible.
Homesong is a way of honoring
the people who are shaping me —
and so that someday, my children can hear
what wisdom sounded like in their voices.
If you’d like to listen too, you’re welcome here.
Stay Patient. Stay tuned…
