Podcasts about Best Work

In this episode we continue our sermon series, Summer in the Sand: learning from wilderness journeys in the Bible. For this sermon, our ministry resident Gabe Solis preaches about Israel's wilderness wanderings in the sand as described in the Old Testament book of Exodus. After rescuing Israel from slavery in Egypt, God didn't lead them straight to the Promised Land—instead, He led them into the wilderness. This was no accident. The wilderness was God's chosen place for transformation, where He would teach His people to trust Him fully and obey His voice. Away from the security of Egypt and the distractions of the world, Israel had to rely on God for everything—food, water, direction, and protection. In that barren place, God revealed His faithfulness and tested their hearts, not to punish them, but to grow their relationship with Him. The wilderness was where God shaped them into His people, calling them to walk by faith, not by sight. It sounds like things haven't changed. God continues to lead his people; you and me, into the "wilderness" so that He can shape us into His people. To discover what this can look like in your life check out Gabe's sermon, we know you'll find it to be helpful!

On this special episode of the Little Kids, Big hearts podcast, LKBH host Todd Loyd has a conversation with the actor and legend Judge Reinhold. Judge appeared on our podcast at the start of the month — exploring feelings of nervousness and practicing some ways to cope with four big-hearted kids.Now he's back to share his OWN experiences and strategies. It turns out that even having decades of experience as a famous actor doesn't make you immune from feeling anxious, and Judge says that's actually a good thing. He explains: "If you're not nervous, then you're not going to do a good job. And that's how you break down that nervousness and turn it into fuel. It's a good thing. It's going to drive you. Adrenaline can get away from you but it can also make you so sharp and make you better than you. That's that special thing that will make you better than you thought you were, that adrenaline. You have to make it your friend." Learn more about the episode: https://playsparkler.org/feeling-nervous/Or find more resources on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LittleKidsBigHearts

In this episode of the Good Brand Podcast, Stewart, Julie and Chris get stuck into the real reason your best work isn't cutting through. It's not a branding problem, it's a business problem. From product-led blind spots to muddled messaging, they unpack the "recognition gap" between what companies think they're selling and what customers actually value. Expect plain talk on why brand is often misunderstood, why internal bias wrecks clarity, and how to close the gap with positioning that drives real, measurable value. If you're still leading with technical specs and calling it strategy, this one's for you.Read the original article: https://goodbrandconsultants.com/articles/why-your-best-work-isnt-winningGood is a brand consultancy that helps complex organisations solve business problems through brand.

I'm giving you permission to pivot!As I often say, marketing is testing. To test we need to put something out in the world and see if it's attracting the right people into our space,and that we're attracting them into whatever offer or promotion that we're creating in the future.While you're doing that testing, make sure you give yourself permission to pivot if you need to. Don't be emotionally attached to everything you put out there. Don't expect it to be a home run every time. It doesn't have to be perfect.Remember marketing is testing and it is okay to pivot.

Podcast Notes Episode 463 Your High Performance Patterns Are What Drive Your Best Work Hosts: Brian Miller, PCC and Chad Hall, MCC Date: May 1, 2025 In this episode of the Coach Approach Ministries Podcast, Brian Miller and Chad Hall revisit the concept of High Performance Patterns (HPP)—a foundational tool in CAM's coaching philosophy. Originally developed by Dr. Jerry Fletcher, HPPs help individuals identify personal conditions that lead to better-than-expected results. Brian and Chad reflect on their own patterns, explore the importance of partnership, time-bound projects, and how performance is shaped by context. They also introduce CAM's updated High Performance Patterns eCourse, now available at a discounted rate for May 2025.   Key Highlights: Origin of High Performance Patterns Dr. Jerry Fletcher's research at Harvard shifted the focus from imitating top performers to identifying unique, individual patterns that consistently lead to high achievement. Defining High Performance High performance is defined by results that exceed your own expectations—not necessarily what others think or external benchmarks. Brian's Key Pattern: Partnership Brian performs at a high level when working with an equal partner. He shares how recognizing this has transformed how he approaches opportunities and collaboration. Chad's Key Pattern: Time-Bound Projects Chad thrives on projects with clear time limits. Long-term maintenance roles tend to drain his performance, while defined deadlines enhance focus and execution. Using and Refining Your Pattern Over Time High Performance Patterns aren't static. Through reflection and story-based assessment, individuals can refine and apply their patterns more intentionally over time. Takeaways: Everyone has a unique pattern for peak performance.  Identifying yours can help you replicate success more intentionally. Look to your own stories HPP discovery is narrative-based—collect stories where you exceeded expectations to find common threads. Partnership may be critical—but only the right kind. Equal investment and mutual respect are essential for collaborative patterns to work. Not all work suits all patterns. Understand the kind of environments (e.g. time-bound, collaborative, solo) that enhance or diminish your performance. Your pattern evolves. The more you reflect and apply what you learn, the more precise and useful your HPP becomes.   High Performance Patterns eCourse Available for $79 (normally $129) during May 2025 at coachapproachministries.org/hpp    Stay Connected: Website: coachapproachministries.org Email: info@coachapproachministries.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/company/coach-approach-ministries Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coach.approach.ministries Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@coachapproachministries7538 Follow us on social media for updates and resources!

Ceri talks about something that’s essential for every artist, how to spot your best work and see it objectively. She talks about why it is so important for your artistic career and how you can learn to make choices about your work, from submitting your work to group exhibitions. KEY TAKEAWAYS Step back and create distance. If you are too close to your work then you will never be able to see it objectively. Time separation is a great way to practice this, put your work away for days or even weeks before you look at it again. You can also separate yourself by creating distance, hanging it up for example or seeing it in a different context. Look at your work as an image first. View your work as an image on a screen as in most cases this will be the first way people will see your work. Flip the question, what is the work trying to do? Ask yourself, What’s it really about? Where does the energy sit, where do your eyes go first? Does it surprise you, or does it feel predictable?Are you holding onto this piece because it’s genuinely strong, or just because it was a nightmare to make? Get clear on your core line of enquiry. If your work doesn’t align with what you care about most, it’s probably not your best! Ask for feedback and be realistic about it. Don’t just ask friends or people you know already like your work, ask people who will give honest and real feedback you can work with. Use your own best work to compare with. Stop comparing yourself to other artists. Your goal should be to keep pushing your own boundaries, rather than measuring up to someone else. Trust your body’s response, your instincts often know more than your rational brain, so don’t ignore them BEST MOMENTS "When you’re too close to your work, it’s impossible to see it objectively.” “People are seeing your art as a digital image before they ever encounter it in person” “If your work is driven by rage at the destruction of nature but it comes across as calm and decorative, it’s not hitting the mark.” “You don’t need endless opinions that send you round in circles. But you do need to be prepared to hear something that challenges your assumptions.” “Be ruthless with yourself, not in a self-critical way, but in a strategic way. You’re not just making work to tick boxes; you’re making work to move your practice somewhere new, somewhere you haven’t been before. That’s where the real progress happens.” “Your body doesn’t lie. Even when your brain is trying to rationalise and talk you into liking something, your body’s reaction cuts straight through that noise.” EPISODE RESOURCES PODCAST HOST BIO With over 30 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci.

What if the America you've been taught about isn't the America that actually existed? In this eye-opening exploration of our nation's Christian foundations, Jesse Cope presents compelling historical evidence from Supreme Court Justice Joseph Story that directly contradicts modern secular narratives about American history.The podcast begins with a challenging look at our personal priorities. "What you spend your time and energy on, that's your priority," Jesse states, confronting us with an uncomfortable truth: many of us claim God is important while dedicating hours to entertainment and mere minutes to prayer. Our calendars reveal our true values more honestly than our words ever could.The centerpiece of this episode is the forgotten testimony of Justice Joseph Story, appointed by President Madison and the youngest Supreme Court justice in history. His unanimous 1844 Supreme Court opinion explicitly declared America "a Christian country" where schools promoting non-Christian beliefs were "not to be presumed to exist." Even more revealing is Story's commentary on the First Amendment's true purpose: not to separate God from government, but to prevent the government from favoring one Christian denomination over others.Perhaps most startling is the 1992 Kentucky statute that had to be passed just to allow teachers to post historical documents containing religious references in schools. "It tells you that our history is so tied up with God and Jesus Christ that if you really want to teach history, you have to talk about God and Jesus Christ," Jesse explains.Woven throughout these historical revelations is a deeply personal message about trusting God through difficult seasons. When prayers seem to go unanswered for years, we might be missing God's greater purpose. Your faithfulness during trials may be setting an example that saves someone else's soul.Whether you're interested in American history, constitutional interpretation, or finding spiritual encouragement during challenging times, this episode offers profound insights that challenge conventional wisdom and inspire deeper faith.Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribe

Setting timers. Downloading apps. Standing desks. Getting up at 5am. A new week, a new productivity ‘hack'. But is chasing productivity actually helping us to get more done? Or simply giving us more to do? Feeling productive can mean different things on different days. Sometimes it's flying through our to-do list. Sometimes it's spending hours thinking of an idea that will go on to change everything. But do we value one type of productivity more than the other? And could doing so be holding us back? Solving the productivity puzzle seems like it could benefit everyone, so how do we do it? Does getting more done really come down to where and when we work? What role can AI and technology play in boosting productivity? How does company culture affect our output? And where can businesses and leaders invest their resources to help improve productivity in a way that works for all of us? That's what we're exploring with guests Professor Michael Clinton, Professor of Work Psychology at King's College London and Deloitte partner, Shivani Maitra, in this episode of The Green Room, as we ask: What's the secret to doing our best work?   Tune in to find out: What we need to understand about ourselves to be more productive  The difference between performance and productivity  How we can ‘craft' our roles – while doing them  What leaders can do to help their teams get more done   Enjoyed this episode?

Tank, is an American R&B singer, songwriter, and record producer. He began his career as a backing vocalist for R&B singers Aaliyah and Ginuwine, and signed a recording contract with the former's record label, Blackground Records as a performing act in 1998. His 2001 single, "Maybe I Deserve" peaked within the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100 and led his debut studio album, Force of Nature (2001). It peaked within the top ten of the Billboard 200, while his second album, One Man (2002), peaked within the top 20 and was met with mixed critical reception. Following a five-year hiatus, he entered a joint venture with Motown to release his third album, Sex, Love & Pain (2007). Met with his furthest commercial success, it peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 and was preceded by the Billboard Hot 100-top 50 single, "Please Don't Go". He parted ways with the labels in favor of Atlantic Records to release his following albums: Now or Never (2010), This Is How I Feel (2012), Stronger (2014), Sex, Love & Pain II (2014), and Savage (2017), the latter of which spawned the platinum-certified single "When We". Following his ninth album Elevation (2019), his tenth album, R&B Money (2022) was announced as his final due to hearing loss in his right ear, which hampered his musical ability.[3] In 2007, he formed the R&B trio TGT with contemporaries Ginuwine and Tyrese, with whom he released one studio album (2013). Along with recording, Tank has been credited with songwriting and production for other artists including Kelly Rowland, Chris Brown, Monica, Jamie Foxx, Omarion, LeToya Luckett, NLT, and KeKe Wyatt. His other ventures include his record label R&B Money, which has signed frequent collaborator J. Valentine; the two began hosting a namesake podcast in 2022, which enlists prominent figures in the genre as guests. Tank has been nominated for four Grammy Awards, a Soul Train Music Award, and his podcast was nominated for Best Work of Music Journalism - Multimedia at the 2023 International Music Journalism Awards.

Hey #AmWriters, Jennie here. I'm excited to welcome editor and publishing strategist, AJ Harper to the show to talk about the art of helping writers do their best work. AJ helps nonfiction authors write foundational books that enable them to build readership, grow their brand, and make a significant impact on the world. She was part of the writing coaching team for TEDx Cambridge, one of the largest TED events in the world. As a ghost writer and a developmental editor, AJ has worked with business writers of all kinds, guiding them to bestseller lists and to many millions of copies sold. She's worked on 10 books with business writer Mike Michalowicz, including Profit First: Transform Your Business From a Cash Eating Monster to a Money Making Machine. Her own book on writing came out in 2023. It's called Write A Must Read: Craft a Book That Changes Lives, Including Your Own. This book is one of the best books on writing nonfiction I've ever read and it's one of the best books on writing period, which is why I wanted to have AJ come on and talk to us. Our conversation will be incredibly helpful for anyone writing nonfiction, but also for people writing fiction and memoir. AJ is just really smart about story structure, thinking about the reader, and fine tuning your ear for good writing. Her story about how she stepped out from behind the ghostwriting curtain to raise her own voice and claim her own authority is riveting.Books mentioned in the episode:Little Women, Louisa M. AlcottThe Trumpet of the Swan, E.B. WhiteCaddie Woodlawn, Carol Ryrie BrinkHey readers—KJ here. This episode of #AmWriting is brought to you by my latest, Playing the Witch Card. I wrote this at a moment when I needed more magic in my life—but it turned out to be a book about how until we know who we are and what makes us happy, even magic doesn't help. My main character, Flair, is a total control freak who fears the chaos created by her family deck of Tarot cards and the cookies it inspires her to make until she decides that she can harness their power to control the world and people around her—but that's not what the cards are for at all. I was inspired by what I see as the real magic of Tarot cards—and tea leaves and palm reading and every form of oracle: they help us to see and understand our own stories. As someone for whom stories are pretty much everything, I love that. You can buy Playing the Witch Card on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Bookshop.org and my local indie—and I hope you'll love it too.

How is your posture right now? If your shoulders are slouched, you are sending a message to others that you probably don't want to send. I start this episode by discussing how your posture speaks volumes – good and bad. https://www.jnforensics.com/post/what-the-shoulders-say-about-us Why do dogs seem so picky about where they poop? Can cats tell what you are feeling? Does a goldfish memory last only 3 seconds? While we pet owners love our pets, there is a lot we don't know or understand. Here to reveal many of these mysteries is Eleanor Spicer Rice. She is an entomologist and the author of several nonfiction books, one of which is called Your Pet's Secret Lives : The Truth Behind Your Pets' Wildest Behaviors (https://amzn.to/3BblxB3). Your brain is on its own schedule. It does some kind of work better in the morning and other work better later in the day. It's important to understand this because you may not be scheduling the type of tasks you are doing to coincide with when your brain is at its peak for that kind of work. Joining me to explain how this works is Dr. Mithu Storoni. She is a physician, neuroscience researcher and ophthalmic surgeon who also advises multinational corporations on mental performance and stress management. She is author of a book called Hyperefficient: Optimize Your Brain to Transform the Way You Work (https://amzn.to/3TAAOSd). It sort of stands to reason that if someone has a big head, they would have a bigger brain and therefore be smarter. But what does the research say about that? Listen as I explore this. I think you will find that the answer is more interesting than you might imagine. https://odditiesbizarre.com/people-with-big-heads/  PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS!!!
