Perch "The Thoughtful Pause Podcast"
The concept of Perch is simple yet profound. It represents more than just a moment of stillness; it embodies a philosophy of life. Perch stands for Pause, Evaluate, Responses to Circumvent, Harm. It’s a call to rise above the noise and seek higher ground to gain a clearer view of the world around us. When we Perch, we create space to see the bigger picture, understand different perspectives, and make decisions that reflect our highest values.
Navigating complexities with empathy is one of the most significant challenges we face today, and it is the ability to understand and empathize with those who hold different views. Our experiences and backgrounds deeply influence our beliefs and the environments we are exposed to. Where you sit determines what you see, and what you see determines what you do. When we Perch, we acknowledge this truth and strive to see the world through the lens of others.

Why do actors drive Ferrari's and teachers ride the bus?
Why do we, as a culture, as a society, value things in the way that we do? How do we decide what warrants greater attention, stronger accolades, or more praise? How do we decide what is worthy of our time and money? Do we really even give it that much thought, or are we pulled down the river of public sentiment and opinion?
In this episode of Perch, we discuss the notion that perhaps we don't really value the things that are truly important, and that based on influences both internal and external, we have mis-aligned those things in our lives and in our world that are most worthy of our attention, praise, and support. We'll discuss how the things we often covet allow us avoid addressing bigger issues that prevent us from reaching higher and achieving more. Do we really understand the world around us and are we an active participant or simply in the crowd?
