It takes a closer look at some of our cultural myths, preconceptions and superstitions. It examines some of the "young wives' tales" that sneak, via parlance, into the fabric of our understanding of our world - that world that our perceptions have, often while we were looking the other way, fashioned into being 'the real world'.

Lamplighters are known by their light. In the 1800's, streets were illumined by lamplighters. They would walk down the street, lighting lamps one by one. As the sun would set, you would lose sight of them, and you would only know they were there because the lights would continue to be lit, one by one. The Lamp Lighter Effect is a collection of 12 leadership principles that allow you to share your light with the world, create a successful business, and be known by your long term impact. This is a podcast for leaders. This podcast begins with 12 episodes outlining each of the 12 principles.
