In this episode, Christina shows up at the end of a long day—post-walk, unfiltered, and debating whether she should even hit “upload.” But the story behind why she almost didn't post this one is worth the listen.She also pulls back the curtain on a behind-the-scenes disaster that nearly pushed her over the edge this week. Let's just say it involves a 35-minute recording, a message from her assistant, and a very real “I might cry” moment. Christina doesn't reveal every detail here… but when you hear it, you'll feel it.From there, she shares how her best podcast ideas actually come together—and why next year's episodes are about to look very different.

Floris Gierman is a 2:44 marathoner, cofounder of Path Projects, 100-mile ultramarathon finisher, and author of the new book Running Breakthroughs. He's done something rare: interview the world's best runners (like Eliud Kipchoge, Courtney Dauwalter, and Killian Jornet) and put all the best lessons, insights, and wisdom into his new book. You'll learn what keeps the most competitive runners going, how they train, and their best advice to excel. Pick up your copy here. I wanted to know: What has he learned from hundreds of conversations with such amazing athletes? What sets them apart? What makes them similar to us? From all he's learned, what would he recommend are the most important pieces of advice for a new runner? What about an experienced, advanced runner? We're going to discus what he's changed his mind about, what's been most surprising, and who he's learned the most from. You can also watch this conversation on the Strength Running YouTube channel here. Thank you Previnex!

We walk through four “better” choices that transform how we navigate an unpredictable world: contemplate your casket, choose your companions, cultivate your character, and consider your Creator. Along the way, we uncover why a good name outlasts surface impressions, why rebuke is a gift, and how nostalgia steals the chance to glorify God today.We share candid stories, practical examples, and Scripture-saturated insights to help you trade the crackle of temporary thrills for the steady warmth of wisdom. You'll hear how flattery dulls growth, why cutting corners backfires, and how patience outlives pride. We tackle the lure of the “good old days,” the danger of unmanaged anger, and the reality that wealth without wisdom often destroys what it promised to secure. Rather than offering quick fixes, this conversation builds a framework for making slow, strong choices that endure.Most of all, we lean into humble trust. God authors the crooked stretches as well as the straightaways, the bright days and the hard ones.

Today we have a returning guest to the podcast. Leigh joined us back in Season 2 Episode 7 and today she's back to share some advice on how you treat the people around you.
Today's quick episode is all about the one thing most high achievers avoid but desperately need: space to think.So many of us stay busy out of habit, even when we say we want change. But your next level doesn't come from doing more—it comes from creating room for clarity, intuition, and the ideas you can't access when you're running nonstop.I'm sharing a powerful question I'm giving all my clients for 2026:If a billion-dollar CEO took over your business and life, what are the first three things they'd remove from your plate?To grow, you need four things: clarity, confidence, space, and delegation. And if you think you don't have time for any of this—I promise, your screen time says otherwise. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn!
In today's mini-episode, our guest leader talks about career patience and taking feedback to the next level.
Ever wonder why your best advice falls flat? Or why it's hard to give good feedback successfully? If you've ever struggled with giving feedback that doesn't stick, managing teams that feel disconnected, or making decisions with incomplete information, this episode offers a mindset shift that transforms not just conversations, but organizational culture itself.You've been there: a colleague asks for help, you offer your hard-won wisdom, and it lands like a lead balloon. They've already tried it. Or worse, they nod politely and do nothing. Or you offer mentorship to help a new team member or someone earlier in their career avoid the mistakes you made. You thought you were doing them a favor but instead, it felt unappreciated. The problem? You diagnosed and told before you understood.Peter Schein—consultant, author, and collaborator with his late father, legendary MIT Professor Ed Schein—joins me to explore Humble Inquiry, a deceptively simple practice that transforms how leaders navigate complexity and improve organizational effectiveness. This isn't about active listening techniques you learned in your last training. It's about fundamentally shifting a culturally-embedded mindset from transactional, efficiency-focused exchanges to one that requires the art and attitude for greater human effectiveness.We dive into why efficiency often sabotages effectiveness, how AI and remote work make this skill more critical than ever, and what types of conversations unlock breakthrough thinking.***ABOUT OUR GUEST:Peter Schein is a consultant, author and keynote speaker based in Menlo Park, CA. Following a 30 year career in Silicon Valley, Peter teamed up with his father, renowned MIT Professor Ed Schein to start the Organizational Culture and Leadership Institute. Over eight years together Peter and Ed published seven books and numerous papers on Humble Inquiry, Organizational Culture, Careers, and Humble Leadership. Peters continues the work following his father's death in 2023 with the recent release of Humble Inquiry 3rd Edition. Peter has a BA in Social Anthropology from Stanford and an MBA from Kellogg/Northwestern.***FIND OUR GUEST HERE:www.ocli.org***IF YOU ENJOYED THIS EPISODE, CAN I ASK A FAVOR?We do not receive any funding or sponsorship for this podcast.

Christina opens up about what it's like to feel misunderstood in your work, why certain words can trigger old insecurities, and how to move through emotional reactions instead of letting them define you.She shares the inner work she had to do: realizing where the anger came from, why proving herself mattered so much, and how she reclaimed her voice and confidence in the consulting space. This episode is for anyone who has ever felt misjudged, underestimated, or boxed into a version of themselves that didn't feel true.If you're in a season of redefining yourself, this conversation reminds you that growth is rarely clean — but always worth it.
