Psalms 25:9True of false? Experience is the best teacher. Experience is a good teacher, but guided experience is the best teacher. We need people to come alongside us; people who care enough to confront us when we're off base. And when we're confronted, we need the humility to learn from it.

What does it truly mean to make a difference in someone’s life? According to Christopher Lochhead, Category Design pioneer and author, the answer is surprisingly simple: you have to be different. On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, Danny Bauer, founder of the Ruckus Maker Club and Better Leaders Better Schools, and Christopher unpack why the education system often functions like a manufacturing process and what teachers, school leaders, and educators can do to break free from that mold. Together, they explore the new American digital dream, the power of reputation capital, and why giving young people permission to design their own lives might be the most radical gift an educator can offer. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go. Being Different Is the Prerequisite for Making a Difference Christopher Lochhead opens the conversation with a provocation that cuts straight to the heart of teaching: if you want to make a difference, you have to be different. More of the same is simply more of the same. The teachers who leave lasting impressions are not the ones who blended into the background. They are the ones who stood out, who were remarkable, interesting, and unmistakably unique. Christopher shares a personal story about Mr. Ross Russell, the teacher who redirected him toward the arts when subjects like math and science were shutting down due to his learning differences including dyslexia, dyscalculia, and ADHD. Decades later, Lochhead tracked down Russell through Facebook and sent him the letter every teacher hopes to receive. The memory of that teacher had never faded, and that staying power is precisely the point. Reputation Capital Is Everything for Schools and Educators Danny Bauer raises a compelling challenge that many school leaders overlook: educators are in the outcomes business whether they realize it or not. Reputation, defined as what gets said about you when you are not in the room, shapes everything from student enrollment to staff recruitment. Christopher Lochhead draws a sharp parallel between a great school and working at Nvidia, arguing that the most successful institutions become places where everyone wants to work. The conversation turns to a pattern Bauer sees repeatedly in education hiring, where schools post desperate job listings that inadvertently signal dysfunction rather than opportunity. Christopher compares this to walking up to an empty restaurant and assuming the food must be bad. The unspoken message undermines the intended one entirely. Bauer shares that when school leaders shift their language and clearly define what makes their campus different, the results are dramatic. One charter school leader went from struggling to fill positions to having more applicants than he could handle. Designing Your Life Is the Most Radical Lesson You Can Teach One of the most resonant ideas in the conversation comes from a quote in Christopher Lochhead’s book, Creator Capitalist: nobody sits you down as an adolescent and tells you that your life is yours to design. Christopher argues that this permission is the foundation of the American dream, and that education has a unique opportunity to offer it early. He speaks from personal experience as an immigrant who arrived in the United States at 28 with no GED and thin on all four capitals, yet went on to build an extraordinary life. Danny Bauer connects this to the work he does with school leaders, encouraging them to tell students they can create and design the kind of life they want to live. Christopher adds that this message is not only for the young. A woman with a PhD in education and organizational design shared that she read Creator Capitalist at 54 and finally understood why she had felt out of place in knowledge worker roles her entire career. The lesson is clear: it is never too early or too late to design the life you want.

The man who co-created category design — the strategic framework behind companies like Salesforce, HubSpot, and Drift — has a blunt message for principals: your recruiting ads are announcing that nobody wants to work at your school. Christopher Lochhead is co-author of Play Bigger, Niche Down, and Category Pirates, the wildly popular business newsletter read by some of the sharpest operators in tech and venture. His latest book, Creator Capitalist, makes the case that the creator economy isn't a trend — it's the future of every career, including the ones you're trying to build on your campus. Most principals spend their careers trying to fix a reputation problem they don't realize they have. This conversation with Christopher Lochhead lands like a two-by-four: your school's reputation is built entirely by what people say when you're not in the room, and most of the signals you're sending are saying the opposite of what you intend. The connection between category design, teacher recruitment, AI in education, and what it means to do school different turns out to be a single through-line — and it starts with the courage to be different.

Who said that experience is the best teacher? Well, just about everyone who has ever taken a class on a subject and who later struggled to apply the content. In fact, one of the reasons why we attract so many people to our leadership classes is that we understand that people learn by doing.When a teacher or coach gives us instructions, their words are just theoretical knowledge. However, when we put those words into practice and experience success, the words become very practical. So, this statement is absolutely true that when you consider how the repetition of new experiences builds confidence in a skill.But there are certain things that experience can't teach you, and a couple pitfalls relying on experience can send you down. Stick around and find out why experience isn't always the best teacher and how you can make it all it's hyped up to be!Show Notes: Experience is the Best Teacher, But Only If You Do These 3 Things(https://www.leadersinstitute.com/experience-is-the-best-teacher-really-maybe-not/)
Another Q&A episode and this one has plenty to get stuck into. Dylan and Hayden answer your questions on some topics that clearly struck a nerve.First up, a heartfelt question from an ECT who has been quietly doing an entire subject leader role under the guise of "shadowing." Dylan and Hayden call it out for exactly what it is, and offer some genuine advice on how to advocate for yourself without burning bridges.Then things get warmer. The boys share their career highlights from inside the classroom and it turns out the moments that stick are never about data. Think handwritten notes from kids, a half court basketball shot that somehow went in, and one girl who ran across a shopping centre years later just to say hello.There is also a brilliant discussion about phones in schools and whether Ofsted should be marking a school down for a single student having their phone out. Plus, a slightly awkward question about SLT leaders who have their own private fridge and kettle so they never have to enter the staffroom.They round things off with what they have genuinely enjoyed since leaving the classroom. Turns out, not feeling absolutely exhausted every weekend is quite nice.Funny, honest, and never dull. This is Teach Sleep Repeat.
I almost learned the hard way that entrepreneurship rewards action, but it also demands humility.Liz Faircloth, real estate investor, entrepreneur, and co-founder of the Real Estate InvestHER community, talks about the moments that shape an entrepreneur's journey—the mistakes, the risks, and the lessons you can't learn from a textbook.Liz shares the story of how she missed two mortgage payments because she refused to hire a $200/month bookkeeper, and how that painful moment forced her to step back, fire herself from the role, and build the team that ultimately helped scale her real estate business.We also dive into:- How a $30,000 loan from her father launched her first real estate investment- The impact of Rich Dad Poor Dad on her financial mindset- Why failure is often the fastest path to growth- The terrifying moment when $10 million in investor funds was stolen by a 1031 custodian- How she rebuilt trust and protected her investors- What it's like building a business with your spouse- Why she created InvestHER, a global community helping women build wealth through real estate- How entrepreneurs can turn fear into opportunityFor me, the biggest takeaway is simple: you can't avoid pain in business—but you can decide whether you learn from it.Connect with Liz Faircloth: https://www.linkedin.com/in/liz-faircloth-36783/Follow Invest HER: https://www.instagram.com/therealestateinvesther/Learn more about Invest HER: http://www.linktr.ee/investherTimestamps:00:00 The $200 mistake that changed Liz's business01:05 Why entrepreneurs need failure to grow02:21 How Rich Dad Poor Dad changed Liz's life08:42 Why you'll never feel 100% ready to invest09:17 Lessons from Wharton and entrepreneurial thinking10:23 “Burn the boats” — the mindset of real entrepreneurs11:21 What it's really like building a business with your spouse14:21 The biggest real estate scare of Liz's career18:00 The responsibility of managing investor capital19:57 Protecting investors and rebuilding trust22:26 Navigating real estate during COVID25:24 The birth of the InvestHER community31:56 Why purpose matters more than profit33:00 Final thoughts on leadership, growth, and impactLike this episode?

Reading the Bible can feel intimidating, especially when we try to understand it on our own. Emily Rose Massey reflects on her own journey of faith, realizing that the Holy Spirit—our Helper and Teacher—guides believers into understanding God’s Word. With the Spirit’s illumination, scripture becomes more than words on a page; it becomes life-giving truth that shapes our hearts, transforms our minds, and draws us closer to God. Highlights The Bible is a gift from God, meant to guide us in knowing Him and living faithfully. Spiritual understanding comes through the Holy Spirit, not human effort alone. The Holy Spirit brings scripture to remembrance and illuminates its meaning over time. Consistent Bible reading allows God’s truth to take root in our hearts. Even with distractions and intimidation, the Holy Spirit helps us comprehend God’s Word for deeper worship and life transformation. This episode is sponsored by Trinity Debt Management.

In high school, I was gifted a Bible when I became a member of my new church. I was so excited to start reading it and learn more about God, but as time went on, I became more and more intimidated by its pages. Where do I begin? Do I start in Genesis and just read through it beginning to end? Do I need to spend time memorizing what I’m reading? What does this word mean? These thoughts circled my teenage mind, and I was so hesitant to even dive in for fear that I wouldn’t understand what I was reading. It didn’t take long for schoolwork and all of the extracurricular activities I was involved in to crowd out any downtime to make space to read my Bible. Soon enough, that Bible would find a permanent home on my bookshelf, left untouched. I hate to admit it, but the intimidation and distractions would follow me all through college as well. When I was stressed out, I would glance at my neglected Bible and randomly open it and try to soak up some hope for my weary soul. Although I heard the gospel as a teen and was a professing Christian for six years, it wasn’t until after I graduated from college that God granted me genuine repentance from my sin and rebellion and gave me the faith to fully surrender my life to Christ and trust Him completely. One Sunday, I stepped foot in a church service for the first time in a few years, and I believe I was born again that day, as the reality of offending a Holy God and my desperate need to turn to Jesus, take up my cross, and follow Him overwhelmed me for the first time in my life. After that moment, my whole world changed, and I suddenly had a deep desire to read my Bible and obey God. I look back and see the difference between my high school and college days was that I was trying to understand what I was reading without the help of the Holy Spirit. Once I became born again at the age of twenty-two, I was given the gift of the Holy Spirit- Jesus describes Him as a Comforter as well as a Helper and Teacher in John 14: “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I have said to you” (John 14:26, ESV). Intersecting Faith & Life: As born-again believers, when we open the pages of scripture, we are not left on our own to understand what we are reading. We have a Helper and a great Teacher, the Holy Spirit, to guide us in our pursuit of growing in the knowledge of the Lord. He illuminates the truth to us over time and will bring what we have read to our remembrance. This is why it is so important to consistently be reading our Bibles, so that we can store what we are studying in our hearts. The Bible is a gift from God to help us in our daily lives- to be able to learn of God’s ways and learn who God truly is so that we can grow closer to Him and worship Him rightly. I have to admit that I sometimes still struggle with intimidation and distraction when it comes to reading my Bible, but after walking with the Lord for over fifteen years now, I know that I am not left alone on this journey. I have a Helper who guides me into all truth and supernaturally helps me understand the words I am reading- words that are spirit and life (John 6:63). He is always with me, and I can always ask Him for help. Dear Christian, let us thank the Father for the gift of the Holy Spirit. The One who convicts us of sin when we daily fall short. The One who is our ever-present help in times of need and who guides us into all truth. If you are struggling to study the Bible or are intimidated by it, He will supernaturally illuminate what you are reading and give you the ability to comprehend, not just for head knowledge, but ultimately, to help you know God more deeply so that you can worship Him more fully. Oh, what a wonderful gift from above!

Join Ned as he sits down with entrepreneur and father of four, Garr Russell, for a raw conversation about what really matters in fatherhood. Garr shares his unconventional approach to raising kids—from buying a restaurant so the whole family could work together, to full-time RVing for five years, to navigating his daughter's most vulnerable moment. They dive deep into the power of physical touch, why we need to stop rescuing our kids from pain, and the critical importance of maintaining heart connection above all else. Garr reveals how one word from his own father marked him for years, and why he's fighting to create a different legacy. This isn't your typical parenting advice—it's about building grit, hearing God's voice, and preparing your kids for their calling. Whether you homeschool or not, whether you work 12-hour days or own a restaurant, the principles Garr shares will challenge you to show up differently for your family.Guest Links:WebsiteLinkedIn---------Transform Your Body with Ned & RUK Fitness: RUK FitnessThis episode is sponsored by The Adventure of FatherhoodOrder The Adventure of Fatherhood children's book hereCheck out the TEDx----------Want to learn more about The Adventure of Fatherhood?https://www.adventureoffatherhood.com/https://www.rebelandcreate.com/Each week Ned sits down with a dad and asks him to open up his field notes and share with other men who find themselves on the Adventure of Fatherhood.

Indie Game Movement - The podcast about the business and marketing of indie games.
Game development is usually focused on execution, building systems, solving problems, and moving forward. But without stepping back to examine what the process itself teaches us, teams can miss why projects succeed, where collaboration falters, or why feedback loops lose momentum. This episode explores how creating games naturally develops strategic thinking, teamwork, feedback cycles, and storytelling instincts, skills that extend far beyond any engine or genre. By viewing game development as a learning system, the conversation reveals how developers can sharpen their craft, align more effectively, and make better decisions by understanding why the process works.

In 1997 Shannon Bros came out as a transgender woman to students and colleagues. “When I transitioned, everything stopped,” says Bros of her research career. “I had a huge friend base by that time. I was confident, you know, what I was doing. Everything collapsed overnight.” Bros, an emeritus ecologist at San Jose State University in California, describes the personal pressures that led to the decision and the reservations she had at the time. "I had a perfect life. I had a fabulous marriage. I had kids. I have always been respected in my department. The last thing I wanted to do was transition.” She describes the support she received, from female colleagues in particular, as she rebuilt relationships. “I spent a lot of energy saying, 'Don't worry about pronouns, just get to know me again. I'm pretty much the same person.'” As a result, she adds, “I became the best teacher I've ever been. I became a fabulous advisor.” Bros is joined by Kihana Wilson, a computational physics PhD student at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor. Wilson describes the “invisibility/hypervisibility paradox” faced by Black queer female scholars like her, who work in predominantly white, male disciplines. She adds: “My hope is that the way that we think about how science and academia should be organized, the ideas we have about who are true scientists, and how scientists should look and fit into academic spaces, evolves and expands.” Off Limits is a podcast series exploring topics that are often perceived as taboo in the academic workplace.

In this episode of The Aspiring Psychologist Podcast, we explore how travelling can genuinely make you a better psychologist by building empathy, perspective, flexibility and emotional intelligence in ways that classrooms cannot. I speak with Ben, an aspiring psychologist currently travelling in Chile, about backpacking across Canada and South America, using Workaway to combine voluntary work with travel, and taking on a remote research role while on the road. We discuss letting go of rigid timelines to qualification, managing internal pressure, funding trips on a shoestring, the role of privilege and safety nets, and how uncomfortable journeys can become powerful stories and sources of resilience. I also share my own experiences of extended travel after my undergraduate degree, shorter UK breaks during clinical training, and how nature, awe and time away from traditional routes can support aspiring and qualified psychologists to live in line with their values and return to their careers more grounded and reflective.Highlights00:00 – Why travelling can shape you as a psychologist as much as formal training00:51 – I introduce Ben, an aspiring psychologist currently travelling in Chile01:34 – We discuss releasing the pressure to qualify quickly and follow rigid timelines02:31 – Ben on career expectations, presence and learning to slow down05:27 – Finding relevant psychology experience while travelling, including Workaway08:02 – My own six-month trip around the world and how I funded it10:35 – Coming home with £20 and jumping straight into work and training13:02 – Standout travel memories and how uncomfortable journeys build resilience17:19 – Sleeper trains, ferries and why challenging travel experiences matter18:13 – Travel doesn't need to be expensive or international to be meaningful22:00 – We reflect on privilege, safety nets and the ability to take time out24:18 – How family support, grief and life experiences shape perspective26:01 – Travel as exposure therapy and confidence building29:20 – Nature, awe and using time away to support mental health33:22 – Leaving space for uncertainty and choosing your own career timelineLinks:

Have you ever had that sinking feeling when one of your favorite teachers sits down in your office and tells you they're thinking about leaving? In this episode, Noelle shares the wake-up call conversation that completely changed how she approached culture at ScribbleTime—and how you can avoid the same mistakes that almost cost her an amazing teacher.

Tina Bakehouse is living proof that even the best teachers are always learning. As an intuitive communication coach, she's built a reputation for helping others communicate with confidence and authenticity. But as she shares in this conversation, her early days in business were filled with valuable lessons—especially about getting clear on her offers. Like many of us, Tina learned that trying to be everything to everyone only leads to confusion. It's a little like showing up at a potluck with five half-baked dishes—your guests won't know where to start, and chances are, nothing gets devoured. Here are some key insights from Tina's journey: The Power of One Clear Offer: When Tina launched her first five-day workshop, she tried selling both group and individual coaching simultaneously—at the same price. The result? Mixed signals and fewer sales. Her big takeaway? Pick one lane, get crystal clear on your ask, and make it easy for people to say yes. Align Offers to the Audience and Platform: Tina now tailors her approach depending on the audience—whether it's small business owners, corporate teams, or C-suite executives. It's about tuning in and delivering what feels right for the moment. Seasonal Strategy: Business has rhythms, just like nature. Tina takes a softer approach in the summer, reserving her high-energy keynotes and workshops for colder months. That shift keeps her inspired and energized throughout the year. Stay True to Yourself: Above all, Tina believes in showing up authentically. By leaning into her identity as an intuitive communication coach, she naturally draws in the right clients and builds meaningful connections. For business owners juggling multiple products or services, Tina's journey is a reminder that less is often more. Get clear on your offer, tailor it to the moment, and align your work with what fuels your energy. When you do, success stops feeling like a chaotic balancing act and starts to flow naturally. Tina Bakehouse is passionate, experienced, intuitive communication consultant & coach, storyteller, creative, and NEW AUTHOR of the book Discovering Our Magnetic Speaker Within.

The greatest obstacle to productivity isn't a lack of time, skill, or effort—it's the invisible weight of doubt, stress, and worry. We grind ourselves down, convinced that success comes from doing more, when in reality, true effectiveness begins with thinking better. In this episode of the Productivity Smarts Podcast, Gerald J. Leonard sits down with retired pediatrician Dr. Ron Schneebaum to uncover a truth that could transform the way you approach work, relationships, and life. Together, they explore the powerful connection between emotional health, happiness, and productivity. Dr. Schneebaum shares his transformative journey in medicine, where he adopted a holistic approach to patient care—treating the whole person, not just their symptoms. He reveals how compassion, love, and empathy are essential for not only healing but managing stress and thriving in all aspects of life. The conversation delves deeper into childhood trauma's lasting effects and the importance of addressing emotional wounds for personal growth. One of the episode's most impactful moments is Ron's morning reflection routine, a practice that grounds him and helps him face challenges with calm and purpose. If you're ready to shift your mindset and live with more intention, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to learn how nurturing your emotional health can unlock your full potential—both at work and in life. What We Discuss [02:02] - Introduction to Dr. Ron Schneebaum [08:03] - Learning effective study techniques [11:06] - Building personal connections in medicine [14:49] - Lessons learned from illness [17:14] - Introduction to Ron's book [19:05] - The impact of COVID-19 on work life [21:55] - Managing stress in the medical field [23:10] - Morning visualization techniques [25:04] - Reviewing daily interactions for growth [28:25] - The magic of consistent practice [32:26] - Healing childhood wounds and making progress [39:25] - The influence of role models in adolescence [43:45] - Conclusion and additional resources Notable Quotes [07:48] "When I saw medicine as a possibility of it being intellectually challenging and having this interpersonal side, I said that's what I wanted to do." — Ron [20:00] "At the end of the day, no one ever sits on their deathbed and talks about the hours they spent in the office. They talk about the loved ones they spent time with, the people they helped, the memories they created, the things that they did that made a difference in other people's lives." — Gerald J. Leonard [21:18] "When you care more about the person than just about getting the job done, the job will get done, but the person will be engaged." — Ron [23:10] "One of the ways that I find is a great stress reliever, and this is available for everyone, is to set your alarm clock for about 10 or 15 minutes earlier than you need to get up and visualize your day ahead." — Ron [29:05] "Think of somebody in jazz, like the greats doing their solos, or Ella Fitzgerald doing her scat stuff where she ends up back where she started. It didn't come out of her never having practiced it; she really worked at it." — Ron Our Guest Dr. Ron Schneebaum is a retired pediatrician with over 40 years of experience in the medical field. A Diplomate of the American Board of Pediatrics and a fellow of the American Academy of Pediatrics, he served on the clinical faculty of Dartmouth College's Geisel School of Medicine. There, he founded the "Fresh Perspectives" program to support children and teens with behavioral, emotional, psychological, and academic challenges. Renowned for his teaching, Dr. Schneebaum was voted Best Teacher in Pediatrics by Dartmouth medical students. After retiring from clinical practice, he shifted his focus to helping individuals live happier, more fulfilled lives. Through his book, Bigger Hearted, and his podcast, On Being Happier: Thinking with Heart and Mind, he shares valuable insights on emotional well-being and personal growth. Outside of his professional work, Dr. Schneebaum enjoys organic gardening, hiking, woodworking, photography, and cooking, while continuing to advocate for mental and emotional well-being.
