No, that’s not a typo in the title. It might be Christmas Eve, but I’m not talking about presents…I’m talking about presence. The holiday season is upon us, which hopefully means more time with family, friends, and other loved ones. While exchanging gifts and presents, don’t forget that the greatest gift you can give someone is your presence–being there with them in the moment without distraction. I’m guilty of not always being present in family settings…scrolling my phone while being semi-present to the conversations and people in the room. It’s not something I’m proud of, but now that I am more aware of it, I can do something about it. And what better time than Christmas Eve with my family and Christmas Day with my in-laws? I’m sure the sweater, shoes, or V-bucks you bought will be well received and appreciated, but I know your attention and presence will be appreciated even more. Over the next few days, give the greatest gift you can and be present with the loved ones in your life. JC |

Naturally, the topic came up throughout our conversation, but we focused on bigger, more important topics. I'm hopeful I can drop the episode this...
I’m sitting in the parking lot before Leo’s soccer match (he has to be there an hour early) watching the latest Chris Brickley vlog (for more on who Chris Brickley is, check out this Film Room report I did on him for my 12:24 newsletter) and it’s called “The People Who Matter.” The video starts off with an important NBA player in his career and then moves to his father (with mentions of his sisters), and then reflects on the time he had with his mother before she passed away—a really...
