My Testimonials

September 23, 2008
I have nothing but the utmost respect for this amazing fellow. Calm, funny, witty, creative, sexy, spiritual, amazingly deep, seasoned, down to earth and incredibly supportive--I truly have no idea why he's still single. (C'mon, Portland ladies--what the hell are you waiting for??!?) Al. I'm blessed to have met you. I only wish it had been before you left LA. I'd like to start a campaign to get you back here! Meanwhile, I am happy and proud to be your campmate and friend.

When I met Al, he was wearing a bear-skin cloat and antlers; he was strange and wonderful. The next time I met him, he was wearing a black shirt and jeans...and he was EVEN MORE strange and wonderful. Al Polito is a rare mix of laughter, spirituality, spontaneous fun and adventure! XO, Janea

you've been the instigator of many enlightened new paths for me.

The man, the myth, the legend. An engima wrapped in spicy secret sauce is the best way to describe Al Polito. A folk rocker with a mystic edge and aura. To meet Al, is to be charmed, to converse with him is discover that the well runs mysteriously deep and takes some unexpected turns. If I could tell Al anything it would be, "Thank you, for being weird." And I mean that as the highest form of flattery.

Also, the new songs are sounding awesome.

about me
I'm a dreamer in metaphors. I'm a songwriter, guitarist, I'm a leader, a lover, a fighter (for things I stand for), a man, a boy. I'm a friend, a coach, and at times a vulnerable ball of goo. I am open-minded. I'm looking for a way to contribute to you. Yeah you.

I perform concerts in people's homes. You invite your friends, set out some food, and I'll entertain and inspire you with fun, interesting, memorable songs. I'lll provoke your thoughts with my lyrics and commentary. I'll pour my life into every song, and you'll be energized.

I am a professional writer. You name it, and I can probably write it, and fast too. See thewritething.biz

I run a bootcamp for artists, called Jumpstart Your Art. See jumpstartyourart.net.

I'm a personal coach and spiritual director. I can help you with goal setting, or releasing goals!

My Blog

On October 8, just a few weeks ago, three people died and 19 others were hospitalized when self-help wealth and abundance guru James Ray “led” a sweat lodge at a “retreat” called “The Spiritual Warrior” in Sedona, Arizona. Prior to the sweat lodge, participants had just come off a 36-hour fast. There were supposedly more than 60 people in the lodge, and each had paid $9,000 for the experience. Ray was responsible for who left the lodge and when.

Not sure if I'll be able to harvest the data off it. Please email your phone number to me if you see this (I realize many don't check Tribe anymore) and would like me to have it.

Blessings on your day,

I’m proud to be offering a presentation called “Faith and Sex,” as part of ErosFestNW, Portland’s first-ever erotic arts festival happening Aug. 6-9. My event is at 10 a.m. until noon on Saturday. I’d love you to come.

During my presentation I’ll provide solutions for the disconnect people of faith, especially from the Christian tradition, have with their sexual selves. This one area probably causes more personal crises for people than any other area in one’s faith. It is time to stop view... read more

An editorial recently appeared on CNN.com. (www.cnn.com/2009/US/05/1...y/index.html) (Thanks Maple.) In it, Rev. Robert Barron argues for celibacy for priests, stating that the priest's fascination with "another world" sets him apart and makes him valuable to the community in a special way. I think he's full of it.

I wrote about in my blog (thelifeluster.blogspot.com/).

Briefly:

The fascination Rev. Barron speaks about is a dangerous thing, insofar as ... read more
