Scott and I dive into practical strategies that help identify burnout's root causes, often hidden in misalignment with personal values or toxic environments, and offer actionable advice on mitigating its effects. For those skeptical about mindfulness, we share simple practices to integrate reflection into daily life, helping build resilience and safeguard mental health amidst chaos.As the world of work evolves, the conversation shifts toward the future, where skills like collaboration and communication become indispensable.

The Key to Feeling Productive (Without Adding More to Your Plate) with Guest Expert Penny Zenker Do you end your days frustrated because your to-do list isn't any shorter? Like you worked hard all day but somehow didn't get the important things done? Maybe you're constantly putting out fires while your big goals sit untouched. You're crossing things off your list but still feeling unproductive because the work that actually matters keeps getting pushed aside. You know you need to focus differently, but everything feels urgent. The problem isn't that you need better time management apps or more discipline. This is about understanding that focus is more than attention – it's strategic alignment.  In this episode with guest expert Penny Zenker, aka "The Focusologist," you'll discover why productivity is actually a feeling, not a metric. You'll learn daily reset practices that will help you reduce overwhelm and improve your focus on what actually moves the needle. Plus, you'll walk away with strategies to overcome leadership overwhelm without working longer hours.   Episode Highlights Why Your To-Do List Feels Endless  [09:17] - Our addiction to distraction & false urgencies [10:48] - Why crossing things off doesn't create satisfaction [11:29] - The 80/20 trap: Spending energy on the wrong 80%  The 135 Rule: Daily Reset Practices for Focus  [12:38] - The "four-hour workday" exercise that forces intentional choices [16:52] - One long-term goal action, three midterm milestones, five truly urgent tasks [18:36] - How to improve focus while still handling life's realities  Three Gatekeepers to Reduce Overwhelm  [23:04] - Rules: Boundaries that create freedom from decision fatigue [26:45] - Filters: Strategic focus through clear priorities & better questions [28:05] - Environment: Reset habits that support clarity over chaos  Daily Reset Practices for Leadership  [29:40] - Adaptability as the antidote to overwhelm [33:11] - Moving from perfect plans to real-time strategic focus [37:21] - Step back, get perspective, realign: Your daily reset framework   Powerful Quotes “Productivity is a feeling. It's like happiness. We're human you know, we're not machines. You can prove if a machine is productive. But how do you prove that we're productive? It's usually how we feel in making progress.” -Penny Zenker  “What I have seen over and over again is that the unknown is the possibility and the opportunity.” -Blake Schofield  “With leaders there are patterns; behavioral patterns, belief system patterns, or conditional patterns that actually are what's driving a significant amount of distraction.” -Blake Schofield “Make more reset moments. That's how we create the space that we need throughout the day. And what if it was like a football game, you get three timeouts in the first half and three timeouts in the second half. So make more reset moments, give yourself six timeouts a day.” -Penny Zenker  Resources Mentioned LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pennyzenker/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pennyzenker/ Distraction Quiz: https://pennyzenker360.com/distractionquiz/     Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

Welcome to A Change Question — a special mini-series from The Inner Game of Change.In each short, solo episode, I bring you one question worth sitting with — the kind that can spark both personal and professional shifts. In this episode, I explore a question many of us face when change arrives uninvited: What can I control when change is already on its way?From restructures to new technology, change often shows up before we're ready. The 3 P's — Place, Proximity, and Posture — offer a way to regain agency, even when the storm is already here.Drawing on neuroscience and lessons from history, I unpack how small, deliberate choices shift the brain from threat to action — and why missing those choices, like Kodak or the Maginot Line, can cost us dearly.

Be ready, stay grounded, and communicate clearly — no matter what's at stake.Communicating under pressure isn't just a useful skill — it can be the difference between escalation and resolution. For Chris Voss, former FBI hostage negotiator and CEO of The Black Swan Group, it's a daily discipline built on empathy, self-regulation, and intentional listening. In this expanded conversation from our Spontaneous Speaking miniseries, Voss offers a rare window into the mindset and methods that helped him show up calm, focused, and adaptable when the pressure is sky-high.“Emotional intelligence is an insane accelerator to outcomes,” Voss shares, explaining how empathy, tone, and timing can shift the direction of any conversation. He breaks down techniques like labeling and mirroring, explores how to use silence and word choice strategically, and explains why overthinking can be just as risky as acting too fast. From gut-level pattern recognition to tactical use of voice, Voss shows how communication becomes more impactful when we're not trying to control — but to connect.In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Voss and host Matt Abrahams dive into how negotiation techniques developed for life-or-death situations can be applied far beyond them — offering powerful takeaways for anyone who needs to think clearly under pressure, stay agile in the moment, and communicate effectively when it matters most.Episode Reference Links:Chris Voss Chris's Book: Never Split the Difference Ep.197 Prep or Perish: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (1 of 3)Ep.198 Pause and Effect: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (2 of 3)Ep.199 Blunder Pressure: Mastering In-the-Moment Communication (3 of 3)Ep.203 No Script, No Problem: Final Secrets to Speaking Under Pressure (Bonus)   Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (02:50) - Path to Hostage Negotiation (03:42) - Power of Emotional Intelligence (05:00) - Staying Calm Under Pressure (06:10) - Mental Prep & Mindset (07:18) - Trusting Your Gut (07:58) - Avoiding Overthinking (09:01) - Flexibility in Negotiations (10:15) - Listen More, Talk Less (10:31) - Labeling & Mirroring (12:51) - Tone Shapes Impact (14:06) - The Final Three Questions (19:37) - Conclusion  *****Thank you to our sponsors:Strawberry.me.

Learn how Melanie Mooney climbed the invisible ladder to the top of her profession.

We all want to live as long and as well as possible. Diet and exercise are crucial, but how can we make sense of the flood of information, which sometimes seems to contradict itself? More importantly, how can we adapt the information in ways that work for us as individuals?Know thyself, answers Duke University Professor Herman Pontzer, PhD '06. Every body has a story, he asserts in his new book, Adaptable. So does every part of our body. The main characters are our organs and systems. The themes and plot are a mishmash of genes and our environment. The result is an astonishing amount of diversity across humanity, united by our common ability to adapt over time and place. Pontzer says that a deeper understanding of how our bodies evolved and how that process shapes our biology can help us better take charge of our health.

Podcast Notes   Episode 481 Choosing What (and What Not) to Adapt To Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: September 4th, 2025 In this episode, Brian and Chad explore the theme of adaptability. Prompted by Brian's personal story of recovering from a four-wheeler accident that left him with a broken collarbone, the conversation unpacks how we experiment, adjust, and decide when to adapt—or not—in both personal life and leadership. They also connect these ideas to broader challenges such as incorporating AI, navigating societal changes, and discerning when adaptation aligns with one's guiding principles. Key Highlights Brian shares his accident experience and how his recovery forced unexpected adaptations in everyday tasks. Adaptability often comes through experimentation—trial and error with temporary vs. permanent solutions. A catalyst (urgency or opportunity) usually pushes people to adapt; without it, many resist change. Adaptation is not always universal—leaders must discern what truly matters and align with a “North Star.” The tension between adapting to everything vs. choosing intentional limits, especially around technology, AI, politics, or social media. Takeaways Adaptability is less about convenience and more about resilience: finding creative solutions when circumstances shift. Temporary adaptations can carry us through transition periods without needing to define a permanent “new normal” too quickly. A guiding principle (your “North Star”) helps determine when to adapt and when to resist changes that distract or harm. Effective leaders adapt selectively—embracing necessary change while staying anchored to core values and priorities.

In this episode of the Truth From The Stand podcast, I sit down with Alex Chopp to talk mobile and travel hunting. We dig into how early experiences and family shaped our approaches, the importance of staying adaptable in the field, and why mindset matters just as much as gear. Alex and I cover everything from learning hard lessons through failure to the freedom that comes with being mobile, reflecting on how success in the deer woods often comes down to presence, persistence, and the willingness to keep moving. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM PODCAST 456 Hunting is about the process, not just the outcome. Early lessons shape your expectations and mindset in the woods. Adaptability and presence are key to consistent success. Every hunter develops a style that matches their personality. Mistakes and risk-taking create the best learning opportunities. Gear matters, but mindset carries more weight.

Reinventing your life or career starts with reflection and conversation. Making the leap — to a new career, to the next stage of a relationship, or to a different version of yourself — requires honest communication. For Ilana Golan, being “leap-ready” requires that we answer three questions: Why me? Why this? And why now?Golan knows all about these leaps, as her career spans corporate executive roles, entrepreneurship, and even F-16 flight instruction. As the founder of Leap Academy and host of the Leap Academy Podcast, she helps equip others to navigate their own personal and professional reinventions. As she says, “It's really about communicating from the vision,” which starts as an inside job. “Why is this the right thing for me right now? You convince yourself first, because when you're [at] peace with what you're trying to do, it's a lot easier to convince others.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Golan and host Matt Abrahams explore how honest communication shapes every stage of reinvention, whether that's listening to the signals your mind and body are sending you — like “sleepwalking through life” and imagining something more — or articulating your pivot in ways that create understanding rather than resistance. Wherever you hope to leap, Golan's insights show how to communicate through change with confidence and clarity.Episode Reference Links:Ilana GolanLeap Academy Podcast | Leap AcademyEp.187 Experimenting, Failing, and Finding Your Job Fit - Catalyze Your CareerEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be  Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (01:39) - Breaking Barriers & Career Patterns (02:18) - Waking Up to Change (03:42) - Signs It's Time for a Pivot (06:45) - The Rise of Portfolio Careers (10:17) - Communicating Career Leaps (13:29) - Finding Clarity in Reinvention (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (22:56) - Conclusion  *****Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you for free.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

Briar Rose Penney, the steward and CEO of Inner Space KC, exemplifies this philosophy. During today's episode, Briar Rose shared how their unique yoga studio and community space blends wellness, creativity, and collaboration in a way that has not only grown their business but strengthened the bonds between diverse groups in Kansas City.Inner Space KC operates as more than a yoga studio. It's a thriving ecosystem where martial arts, dance, qigong, and tai chi classes meet creativity and collaboration. “We have 12 commercial tenants that rent with us,” Briar Rose explained. “Their rent directly subsidizes our programming and stabilizes our finances. But also, we all kind of would only be here because of each other.” This symbiotic relationship allows the space to host everything from art markets to activism events, creating a vibrant hub where personal care and creativity intersect.One key to this success is Briar Rose's emphasis on building community through intentional care. Volunteers, or “caretakers,” play a vital role in maintaining the space's welcoming atmosphere. “Touch everything—even if it's something that no one is going to notice,” Briar Rose said, underscoring the importance of attention to detail. “The feeling of it being connected with and touched and attended to does translate. People can feel that when they walk in the space.” This meticulous care has contributed to Inner Space KC's remarkable 30% revenue growth over the past year.Briar Rose's approach also underscores the importance of staying true to the values that make a business unique. After a period of trial and error, they found that leaning into their studio's distinct offerings—rather than imitating others—created the consistency and growth they needed. “We had to come back to what was already working and let that show us, ‘Oh, this is how we grow.'”Inner Space KC is currently raising capital through a regulated investment crowdfunding campaign on Honeycomb Credit, marking their second successful foray into alternative funding. Briar Rose emphasized how this approach has opened doors where traditional financing fell short. “Banks really just don't see you,” they said. “The Honeycomb thing was a really cool expansion of my horizon. There are alternative sources of capital out there—you just have to open up to them and look.”By blending business with community-building and creativity, Briar Rose is helping redefine what success can look like. Inner Space KC is proof that fostering connection and care can lead to both financial growth and meaningful impact.tl;dr:Inner Space KC blends yoga, martial arts, and creativity to foster community and collaboration in Kansas City.Briar Rose Penney embraces volunteers as a cornerstone of Inner Space KC's welcoming, thriving environment.Adaptability and a willingness to pivot have been key to the studio's 30% revenue growth.Alternative crowdfunding has enabled Briar Rose to bypass traditional financing and expand Inner Space KC.By building a business rooted in care, Briar Rose proves that community and profit can coexist.How to Develop Adaptability As a SuperpowerBriar's superpower is adaptability—the ability to pivot, learn, and grow through challenges. They describe this skill as a willingness to “try things and recognize that not everything you try is going to work,” adding, “You really just have to be willing to pivot without drama or ego or blame.” Briar Rose's openness to experimentation and their capacity to let go of rigid ideas have allowed them to navigate the complexities of running Inner Space KC with grace and resilience.Illustrative Story:Briar Rose shared how they initially focused on growing memberships and increasing foot traffic at Inner Space KC, believing this was the key to success. However, the strategy didn't yield consistent results. Instead of doubling down, Briar Rose reflected on what the business truly needed. They realized their community valued the studio's unique, niche offerings rather than uniform programming. By leaning into these strengths, they saw class attendance and memberships grow organically, highlighting the power of adaptability in business.Tips for Developing Adaptability:Embrace Experimentation: Be open to trying new approaches, even if you're unsure of the outcome.Learn from Failure: View setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than reasons for discouragement.Seek Feedback: Surround yourself with peers and mentors who can offer constructive criticism and guidance.Stay Curious: Cultivate a mindset of curiosity to continuously explore new possibilities.Let Go of Ego: Avoid attaching yourself to rigid plans or ideas; be willing to pivot as needed.By following Briar's example and advice, you can make adaptability a skill. With practice and effort, you could make it a superpower that enables you to do more good in the world.Remember, however, that research into success suggests that building on your own superpowers is more important than creating new ones or overcoming weaknesses. You do you!Guest ProfileBriar Rose Penney (they/their):CEO / Steward, Inner Space KCAbout Inner Space KC: Inner Space is a community movement, yoga and healing arts center in midtown Kansas City, MO.

“Take more risks. Take them early and often.” “I think a generous leader is someone that looks at you for the long view and they see you.” “Generosity is having the courage to also have that moment when you have to deliver that moment that isn't inspiring, the honest truth that we all sometimes need to hear as well… and encourage them along the way.”   Episode summary | In this episode of ROG, Shannon Cassidy speaks with Gemma Toner, founder and CEO of Tone Networks, about her journey from being an immigrant in the U.S. to becoming a leader in the tech and media industries.

Leadership is the single most important factor in a sales team's success. You can have talented reps, strong products, and a solid sales process, but without effective leadership, performance stalls. As Duff Tucker, Sales Trainer, puts it on this episode of the Sales Gravy Podcast: "You have to model the behaviors that you want your team to live out. When you model those, you get a lot of credibility. You have respect. You have influence.” In today's hyper-competitive sales environment, your team has choices. Top performers can work anywhere. Average reps will coast if you let them. But the teams that consistently crush quotas, retain top talent, and create cultures where everyone wants to win all have one thing in common: a leader who has mastered the fundamental skills that turn potential into performance. Here are five leadership skills every sales manager must master to drive their team to the next level.  1. Clear Communication: No Confusion, No Excuses Sales teams don't fail because of a lack of talent—they fail because of unclear expectations. Leadership starts with communication. If your reps don't know exactly what you expect, how you measure success, or where they're falling short, you're setting them up to miss the mark. Clarity means: Defining priorities: What activities matter most (calls, meetings, proposals) and why. Eliminating ambiguity: No mixed signals, no “read between the lines.” Giving feedback in real time: Don't wait for quarterly reviews to correct course. Practical tip: After every meeting, send a short recap of agreed actions and timelines. It reinforces expectations and removes excuses. Vague leadership creates vague results. 2. Goal Setting & Vision: Building Direction, Not Just Numbers A sales leader isn't just a scoreboard watcher. Your job is to give your team something bigger to aim at than just “hitting quota.” Without a clear vision, teams drift into reactive mode and lack initiative. People perform better when they're chasing a clear, meaningful vision.  Effective goal setting requires more than revenue targets. It's about: Tying team goals to organizational strategy. Breaking big objectives into manageable activity benchmarks. Painting a picture of what winning looks like so reps can see themselves in it. Practical tip: Start every month by walking your team through why their goals matter and how success impacts the company, the customer, and their own careers. When reps buy into the vision, they push harder to achieve it. 3. Coaching: From Boss to Builder Micromanagers kill momentum. Coaches create it. Leadership in sales means shifting from telling people what to do to building people who can do it themselves. Great sales coaching involves: Observation: Ride-alongs, call reviews, pipeline inspections. Targeted feedback: Specific, actionable, focused on behaviors, not personality. Development mindset: Every interaction is a teaching moment. Practical tip: Block weekly one-on-one coaching sessions that focus on skills and pipeline health. Ask questions that uncover roadblocks instead of delivering lectures. Consistently coached reps outperform those left to figure it out alone. 4. Adaptability: Leading Through Change Markets shift, customers evolve, and strategies that worked yesterday won't guarantee tomorrow's success. The best leaders view challenges as opportunities. Adaptability looks like: Adjusting sales strategies with confidence. Staying ahead of industry trends, not reacting late. Modeling resilience when things don't go according to plan. Practical tip: Hold monthly “market pulse” sessions where you and your team discuss shifts in buyer behavior, competitor activity, and emerging tools. This keeps your team agile and ready to move, rather than stuck waiting for direction. 5. Accountability & Recognition: The Performance Balance Leadership is about balance, not being a cheerleader or tyrant.

In today's episode, delve into the root causes of anxiety through the lens of both modern science and Ayurvedic wisdom.

Dr. Vignesh shares how Ayurveda views anxiety as an imbalance of Vata dosha, and how misdirected creative energy can spiral into worry and fear.Through practical tools and Ayurvedic insights, you'll learn how to reframe anxiety into resilience and curiosity, cultivating clarity and balance in everyday life.Get free episode abstract: https://vigneshdevraj.comThe details of our upcoming course on healing from anxiety will be announced shortly on our Instagram page.
