Ep 574 - Robert Barton

Author: Mark Goulston December 21, 2023 Duration: 54:52

In this episode I speak with Robert Barton, University of Oregon professor emeritus in acting and former head of the acting program and author of many books including: "Acting: Onstage and Off," and "Acting Reframes: Using NLP to Make Better Decisions in and out of the Theatre and his "Many Right Ways" columns appear in each edition of The Voice and Speech Review. His wakeup call was coming from an unhappy childhood and seeing how acting and the theatre could free him and also be something to develop himself fully as a person and help others do the same. https://www.amazon.com/stores/author/B001IQW792/about/


In a world filled with noise, what does it truly take to listen to the signal? My Wakeup Call with Dr. Mark Goulston explores the pivotal moments that fracture a person's reality, only to reveal a clearer path forward. Hosted by psychiatrist and author Dr. Mark Goulston, this podcast delves into conversations with individuals who experienced a profound, often jarring, personal catalyst. These are not simple anecdotes of change, but deep examinations of the instant when everything shifted. Listeners will hear raw, unfiltered stories about the events-frequently unasked for and deeply challenging-that ultimately redefined a person's sense of purpose and direction. The dialogue in each episode moves beyond the surface of the crisis itself to uncover the resilience and clarity that followed. It’s about the aftermath: how a single moment can dismantle an old life and compel the building of a new, more authentic one. This podcast lives in the intersection of mental fortitude and personal revelation, documenting the journey from being shaken to the core to finding a steadier, more intentional footing. Through these intimate interviews, the series offers a unique lens on human transformation, making it a compelling listen for anyone interested in the forces that shape our lives and character.
