Noticing the Extraordinary in the Ordinary Artwork

Wildcatdojo Conversations

Karate is for everyone. So, join us each week for a 20 to 25 minute conversation on all types of subjects. We go from managing the distractions of daily life, through martial arts history and people, and common sense concepts to add to your self defense armor. Plus we have interviews and so much more. After spending over 40 years discussing life's challenges in a dojo, (both as a student and as a teacher) I decided it would be fun to share the conversations with everyone. And it is! We're having a great time with our guests each week thinking, talking and very importantly sharing a laugh or two along the way.

Noticing the Extraordinary in the Ordinary

January 05, 2026 • Sensei Michelle • Episode 322

We' were so lucky to be joined by Shelby today to discuss this great Zen concept. We had a blast and hopefully you will too. Shelby has been on a few times. I think her first appearance may have been when we were celebrating our 25th episode! Here's the link:

Thanks Shelby.

Zen philosophy is behind the viewpoint we're tackling today. We've talked about it many times on the podcast. Here's one episode, from a couple of years ago:
