Arroe Collins View From The Writing Instrument

-Missed Opportunity- I love sharing conversations.  Hosting requires show prep.  My podcasting platforms feature thousands of guests.  What you don’t have access to are the missed opportunities. The show prep was completed.  The conversation didn’t happen.  I keep all my notes! Paths will cross again.  Let me explain Missed Opportunity.  It’s my questions and statements without their answers.  I’m leaving open enough space at the end of each question hoping they’ll download the talk and insert their answers.Missed Opportunity is a lost piece of history.  Like a message in a bottle tossed out to sea. I hope to loca...

Do you believe in resurrections?  They happen every day.  But are you willing to listen, to participate, to explore and find newer ways to understand your personal journey? This podcast isn’t about what we study and see through the eyes of religion. My Boy Boy Ernie spoke with me every chance we had together.  But this isn’t about resurrecting a spiritual brother of nearly 34 years.  This resurrection is that of a writing instrument. Verbal documentation of what some may call a vision quest.  Trusting the great mysteries of life.  Tools are handed to us to carve out each expectatio...

53% of singles report dating burnout, and 32% have deleted the apps entirely, but the women most affected aren't passive or disengaged. They're the ones doing everything: initiating, overgiving, showing up, and still watching him pull away. Kelsey Gaudreault's debut book From Chasing to Chosen (launching April 25, 2026) challenges the premise of nearly every dating framework on the market. After coaching 700+ high-achieving women, Gaudreault argues that chasing isn't about who texts first. It's an unconscious wound rooted in the belief that love must be earned.Here are a few angles that may resonate with your readers:Overgiving is manipulation in disguise - because giv...

I’m always asking questions.  The fun begins when you start researching for answers. Such as…   When parents transition…should the surviving children bury their indifferences?  Plus…do shoppers at grocery stores feel guilty about hoisting $300 to $500 worth of product to a cash register?    I’m Arroe…  I am a daily writer.  A silent wolf.  I stand on the sidelines and do nothing but watch, listen study then activate.  I call it The Daily Mess.  A chronological walk through an everyday world.  Yes, it’s my morning writing.  As a receiver of thoughts and ideas, we as people tend to throw it to the side and d...

In radio, we save our airchecks. It's the best way to measure personal growth and outreach. Why don't other businesses do the same for their employees?

Aircheck your staff and win!

Joanne Redding tells her story of suffering heartbreaking loss at the age six and the years of neglect and damage that followed.  Hours after her father went missing, the doorbell finally rang. Her mother thanked the police officer and then shared the news with Joanne and her two siblings, Thomas, age eight, and Peggy, twelve: “Your father was driving across the bridge and had a car accident. He is dead.” Her voice was flat. She shed no tears. And she offered no comfort to her three children—not then, not ever. A few days later, Joanne’s childhood truly ended. Her mothe...

Welcome back to the studio.  This is My Day of Play, where you’re taken into the real events and actions of how it happens long before the process of editing or cleaning up.  The original purpose of these episodes was to give my broadcasting students something to edit, to practice with and to call their own.  Then I realized that you are just as important.  Share the reality of how it really went.  We begin things with Tommy Shoemake who originally formed Katfish as an acoustic duo that performs a variety of Outlaw Country, Southern Rock, contemporary and clas...
