“Home isn’t a place, it’s a feeling.” – Cecelia Ahern About This Episode: “I feel like I’m home.” Many of us have said or heard this at one point in our lives, and it’s typically not to address the physical location, but rather a specific feeling. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about the 5 things (safety, belonging, pride, unconditional love, and being yourself) that make up the feeling of ‘home,’ why we all deserve to feel that way, and how we as leaders can give this feeling to others. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Intention, good or bad, is not enough.” – John Steinbeck About This Episode: One of the most profound shifts we can make in life is the shift from good intentions to intentional living. Good intentions are about desire and what you want; but intentional living is about what you do. It’s about figuring out your fundamental values, principles and beliefs, and then designing and living your life in that direction so that it has meaning. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about the difference between good intentions and intentional living, and offer guidance in how to make that lifechanging shift. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Every year should teach you something valuable; whether you get the lesson is up to you. Every year brings you closer to expressing your whole and healed self.” – Oprah Winfrey About This Episode: Today is the big 4-0 for me! Throughout my life I’ve kept an ongoing list of principles based on lessons learned from other people or from my own experience, which I try to live my life by. This milestone birthday inspired a lot of reflection for me, and so for this special episode, I put together a list of my top 40 principles that have had the most impact on me and that I think will provide the most value in sharing them with you. These principles are drawn from all different sources: some directly from other people, or are ones I’ve adapted, while others are ones I created. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Don't let your net worth determine your self-worth.” – Rick Warren About This Episode: Most people measure their self-worth in terms of personal achievements throughout their lives—but they’re using the wrong measuring stick. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about an important (and life-changing!) shift we can all make to measure the value of ourselves not based on what we achieve (our job title, the grade, the scoreboard, the bank account), but rather on what we OVERCOME. And since 2020 was a year in which we had to overcome a lot, we should be valuing ourselves at a high level right now. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com ***If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Guest Darryl Knudsen, Dartmouth '96, was technically a comparative literature major in college, but one could be forgiven for thinking he was a paddling major given the amount of time he spent on the water. Unsuprisingly, he began adult life as a river guide. But when he stood on the banks at one point and realized he didn’t have the tools needed to make the impact he wanted, he took a different course.He embarked on a career in human rights and business—one he needed to forge for himself as there was little in the way of corporate social responsibility in either grad school or businesses. Starting first with socially responsible investment funds, he then found his way into Gap, Inc. where he honed his skills over the next decade and then found himself working globally on everything from improving working conditions to curtailing child exploitation. And once he had the tools of negotiation in the human and environmental rights context, the rivers called him back.In this episode, find out from Darryl how picking the right path in the current—sometimes going with the flow and sometimes against it—while hard, can be transformative …on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley. About This Episode's GuestDarryl Knudsen is Executive Director of International Rivers, an organization devoted to protecting rivers and defending the rights of the communities that depend on them. The tailor-made role allows him to meld his love of rivers with two decades of experience in human rights and global corporate responsibility honed during his time at Gap Inc. and other experiences representing the interests of workers, communities, and environments. Also Mentioned in this EpisodeEstablished in 1920, Ledyard Canoe Club is a student-run organization at Dartmouth College that supports flatwater and whitewater canoeing and kayaking.

“Ten years from now you’ll laugh at whatever’s stressing you out today. So why not laugh now?” – Tony Robbins About This Episode: We’re living in a world where stress is at an all-time high. Stress not only affects us mentally and emotionally, but it can also manifest in physical signs that weigh us down. Over time, if we continually ping our bodies with stress, we can actually become addicted to the feelings associated with it. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about the hidden signs and impact of stress—and offer an antidote or vaccine that can shift us to a gratitude state and help us become a blessing to others. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Change is the only constant in life. One’s ability to adapt to those changes will determine your success in life.” – Benjamin Franklin About This Episode: It’s an understatement to say the world is fast changing all around us. Not being able to adapt can eventually hurt us. A recent family trip to see Santa reminded me of that. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about effective and practical ways we can manage change so that we can not only survive but thrive this next year. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Guest Rebecca Oettinger Feder, Dartmouth '96, knew enough about business after leaving college to know that she didn’t know enough. After a rotational program and an executive MBA, she realized she was drawn most to Human Resources, which she came to regard as more than just an enabling function to the businesses of which she was a part. Her roles supporting senior managers across the entirety of a business gave her an intimate look at all sides of the business and a courtside seat to how senior executives make decisions.But with the growth of her career—serving many business units within giant global companies that required more and more days on the road and away from family—she realized she needed to make a change. Luckily a decade before, when she was just contemplated motherhood, she had drawn up a business plan for her own HR consultancy. At the time, trusted advisors told her she needed more experience and connections, but when she brushed off the plan all those years later, she was on her way.In this episode, find out from Rebecca how sometimes it’s the combination of experience, connections, and timing that leads to the impact you are after…on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley. About This Episode's GuestRebecca Oettinger Feder is principal consultant at Princeton HR Insight, LLC. With extensive experience in HR management roles with global organizations, including as McMaster-Carr, Bristol Myers Squibb, and Tyco/Johnson Controls, she now advises clients in a range of industries through her own firm.

“Blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make yours shine any brighter.” – Unknown About This Episode: Progress is essential to getting the results we want, and I believe that a real desire to grow, move forward, evolve and pursue better will not only help us achieve our goals but actually enable us to enjoy the journey along the way. But, it is our approach to progress that matters most. We see all the time people trying to ‘get ahead’ in life or in business, usually in one of two ways: by tearing others or things down, or by building them up. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I break down these two approaches to their core, and talk about how tearing down might be used in the short-term, but it doesn’t last in the long-term. Building up, however, is about creation and can lead to long-term sustainability and positive impact. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com ***If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“You cannot always control what goes on outside. But you can always control what goes on inside.” – Wayne Dyer About This Episode: Even with so much uncertainty around us and negative news monopolizing our mind, there are things we can always control. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I break down three things we have complete control over: our input (what we choose to allow in), our output (what we put out into the world so that we’re not part of the problem), and what we can do in terms of actions to directly be part of the solution. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Guest Jonathon “Stew” Stewart, Dartmouth '96, set off to Hollywood immediately after graduation to become a writer and director in Hollywood. Without ready-made connections or a pre-determined path, he had to stumbled around in the beginning until a few observations of the sublime and the ridiculous within his own family made him take stock anew and recommit to the path he’d chosen. Embarking on a collaboration with fellow Dartmouth writer Eyal Podell ’97, he worked on a biopic script about a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright’s before taking the plunge into a similar project on Theordore Geisel. The Dr. Seuss script, though not without its barriers to an easy road to the box office, became the duo’s calling card around Hollywood and ultimately opened doors to animated film projects and other creative initiatives that require just the tricky balance of humanity the pair have continued to perfect.In this episode, find out from Stew how finding the human story--whether in a non-human animated character or the protagonist of a period biopic--is all about simultaneously seeing both the whimsy and drama of life…on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley. About This Episode's GuestJonathan Stewart is a screenwriter, director, and author, who—with writing partner Eyal Podell, Dartmouth ’97—has straddled big budget animation and period biopic projects, pulling both the humanity and whimsy out of such characters as Lightning McQueen, a protégé of Frank Lloyd Wright, and our own Dr. Seuess.

“Stop being afraid of what could go wrong, and start being excited of what could go right.” – Tony Robbins About This Episode: When was the last time you were ridiculously excited about something? I’ve found that life is just BETTER when you are EXCITED! But let’s be real: Sometimes we go through seasons of life that are challenging, and it can be really difficult to get excited about much of anything. My own experiences have taught me there are different kinds of excitement. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I share the four kinds of excitement I’ve experienced in my life: 1) no excitement, 2) excitement based on Vision, 3) excitement based on Results, and 4) excitement based on Faith. Tune in to learn more about each kind, and why I’m still working towards living in the fourth one. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Guest Justin Boyd, Dartmouth '96, may have been destined to practice dentistry with three generations of dentists on his father’s side preceding him. But as captain of the men’s lacrosse team, Justin realized his first job was to learn to juggle his role as a student-athlete (and fraternity member) with his pre-med studies.Knowing dentistry wasn’t the only game in town, he found himself seeking advice from a teammate’s father who was a prescient physician: He told him that it appeared that general medicine of the future was going to be in the hands of big insurance and that dentistry would remain rather insulated from that trend. At the same time, Justin looked around at the lifestyle that dentistry afforded his father—who could stop seeing patients in Manhattan at noon and still make a mid-week lacrosse game in Hanover to see him—and the path seemed clear.In this episode, find out from Justin how sometimes observing those closest to you can give you useful information about the life you should be living …on ROADS TAKEN...with Leslie Jennings Rowley.About This Episode's GuestJustin Boyd is among the fourth generation of Boyds to practice dentistry in the family business, a mainstay of dentistry in mid-town Manhattan since 1930. Though he may be on the sidelines or among the coaching staff at one of his five kids' games when you look for him, you can try to find him at drsboyd.com. BONUS EPISODE NOTE: Listen to the Roads Diverged bonus episode with Justin published on November 6 in which he discusses how his practice was shut down at the start of the Coronavirus, how he and his family used the time to rethink dental care in this modern age, and what the practice has felt like since reopening.

Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly. – English Proverb About This Episode: We’re in a time of shift! And, there’s enough time still left this year to shift our personal narrative. Yes, the year 2020 is all about change, change, change, but instead of “change,” I challenge us to instead use the word “transformation.” As the world is transforming around us, we will need to transform – or reinvent – ourselves. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I give 5 steps that will guide you in your own transformation so that you can create personal momentum and rewrite your narrative before the end of 2020. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong.” – Gandhi About This Episode: It seems like so many people today are too easily triggered, and then hold onto unneeded negativity for far too long. Bottom line: I think today we could all benefit from building our forgiveness muscle. Forgiveness is about setting someone free—not them, but YOU. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I share three thoughts on why and how we can learn to truly let go of things that hold us back. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

Guest Bio: Sebastian Terry (@seb100things ) is the Founder of 100things and Kindsum, a Keynote Speaker, a TV Host, an Author and a Philanthropist. He is known worldwide for pursuing an incredible list of 100 Things that he wants to achieve before he dies—a journey that has accidentally grown into a global movement of people chasing & achieving their dreams… and helping others do the same. About This Episode: Inspired by the death of a close friend, Sebastian Terry experienced a moment in his life when he asked himself a simple question: “Am I happy?” The answer was a resounding NO, which compelled him to create a list of 100 Things that he hoped would help him find happiness. Fast forward 10 years, after dropping everything in his life to pursue his crazy list, and Sebastian’s story has grown from a personal adventure into a global philanthropic movement that engages a growing tribe of hundreds of thousands of people to set meaningful goals, achieve one’s biggest dreams and help others in need. In this special episode, I have an enlightening and inspiring conversation with Sebastian about the personal journey to finding self and happiness, and how to really feel ALIVE at this time—starting from a list and then going much bigger. *** Mentions: Sebastian Terry website: 100things.com 100things podcast: 100things.com/podcast *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Values are like fingerprints. Nobody’s are the same, but you leave them all over everything you do.” – Elvis Presley About This Episode: If we dig deep enough, we’ll find that the things we want and the goals we set are really insights into what we value. If we ask ourselves what we value, we can often find other creative and unique ways to fulfill those values in the short-term with what we currently have. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I talk about what truly powers our desires, and how understanding this core can change how we design our lives every single day. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Doubt increases with inaction. Clarity reveals itself in momentum. Growth comes from progress. For all these reasons, BEGIN.” – Brendon Burchard About This Episode: We all know what it looks and feels like to be ‘crushing it’ in business or life. We’re ‘on fire’ or ‘in the zone’ – there’s an energy that moves us forward. I call that “personal momentum.” There is still plenty of time in 2020 to reassess your goals, figure out what you’ll focus on, and put yourself into a personal momentum so that you can attract what you want and then compound your results. In this #WalkWithMe episode, I share 5 simple steps we can take immediately to put ourselves into a personal momentum in our business, our career, and our life between now and the rest of the year. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.

“Once your mindset changes, everything on the outside will change along with it.” – Steve Maraboli About This Episode: 2020 is more than just the year of the career pivot; I believe it is the era of the entrepreneur. This time of major shifts is setting the stage for entrepreneurs to either get in the game or step up because we need new out-of-the-box creative approaches to solve today’s problems. Becoming an entrepreneur requires a different mindset than that of an employee. In this episode of “#WalkWithMe” I share 7 mindset shifts I’ve learned over the past two decades that can help somebody become a solo entrepreneur or raise their game. *** For show notes, visit alivebydesign.com *** If you enjoy the podcast, please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes.
