A Swift Kick In The Ass, is a podcast about the forces that motivate us to create positive personal change. Topics are intended to inspire and provoke thought and/or action that help the ordinary person achieve extraordinary change. The show was started in 2014 being hosted by lifelong friends John W. Curren and Tom Stewart. Tom died of brain cancer on 9/16/2020. John continues the quest to disrupt conventional thinking and find true freedom through living life on his terms.
Personal Growth and Lifestyle design can make a person feel like an ass. Some things we try to change fail no matter what we do. That is okay. So be strong. be bold. Learn how to adapt and carry the burden or stubbornly refus to carry the load! It is up to you. Be asinine!
Please like and subcribe. It really help this ass more than you could ever know.
