The Glacier National Park Experience – A Minute in Nature

JMS ep 142 a minute in nature

You can’t change the whole world, but you can change your corner of it with something good.”

Not everything needs to lead to a sale. Some things just need to make someone smile.

In this episode, Jeff Noel and I are recording from the edge of a cliff in Glacier National Park with Swiftcurrent Glacier in the background. No Wi-Fi, no distractions, just two friends reflecting on something small but meaningful: my Minute in Nature videos.

If you’ve followed me on Instagram, you may have seen them. One-minute clips of birdsong, mountain streams, or wildlife. No branding. No pitch. Just a little quiet. These moments started as a personal experiment to offer something calm amidst the chaos of social media.

Jeff and I explore how it started, why I kept going even when I wasn’t sure it mattered, and how these simple videos have become meaningful to others—and grounding for me. We also talk about how doing something just because it brings joy can often resonate the most.
