Rhonda and James tackle some controversial topics currently challenging organisational culture discussions, starting with organisations changing their Australian Day holiday, and that maybe, work should be hard. Later on in the episode, they discuss the flood of HR-built policies and urge organisations to move the discussion away from HR policy-dictated sympathy and more towards leader-led empathy and care.

*This episode is a serious one since there will be no background music* Imagine yourself as a Stock. Your name is the ticker, your physical/mental self as the brand, and the people around you and the habits you do in life will determine whether your stock will rise or crash. The way how you make sure your stock will rise or crash is by the executive decisions you make in life. Which makes you the CEO of your own life. It is time to make "tough executive decisions" in your life in order to take power back into your own hands just like a CEO would for their own business except this time it is you in charge of your own life. It may seem tough in the beginning; but in the end your stock will be bullish for a very long time. It is time to take a deep look into your friend group, the habits/activities you partake in, and the way how you treat yourself. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/david-claros/message

It been a long time coming but I am finally back for good into the world of podcasting. First and foremost I hope all of my listeners have been kicking life's ass and continuously striving day in and day out. Life has been a transition for me from getting educated by professors to now "life" being my permanent teacher in this game of life. For today's episode I would love to fill you in the things going on in my life and the drastic changes from living on campus to living with my parents. We will also discuss how we must begin to seek validation for our own self instead of trying to get it out of your parents. I hope you all enjoy episode 56, and I will be publishing episodes bi-weekly on Wednesday's !!!! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/david-claros/message

You gotta make sacrifices in life and realize what's tremendously important. That's how I've been for the past few months in my relationship with school and my podcast. I hope everyone has been amazing and great; my life has only been involved in kicking school's ass for the very last time until I get out into the real world. As of today I finally had the privilege to make time for Rafael's Big Talks and for you guys as well. For today's topic, I will spend some time catching up with you guys and tell you how my life has been. Then talk about what it's like being 1st Generation Student in a university, I hope anyone in college can relate to this feeling because it has it benefits but then it also has pressures as well. You have the ability to break your families cycle and make it successful, but can you handle the pressure and the heat?!??! I hope everyone enjoys EP LIII and can relate as well. & as always, lets keep that chart going up^^^^ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/david-claros/message

When difficulties happen, Tricia believes that it is not an end, but rather a beginning.  Also, if our map changes, we should trust and believe where we are being led. In addition to working in the entertainment industry, Tricia Brouk applies her expertise as a director and writer for film, television and theater to the art of Big Talks and Keynotes. She nurtures speakers using the same techniques she does with actors by guiding them to become their most vulnerable selves in order to truly connect with their audience.

She's the Executive Producer of TEDxLincolnSquare has worked on Black Box on ABC, The Affair on Showtime, Rescue Me on Fox, and received a Golden Thumb award from Roger Ebert for her work John Turturro's Romance and Cigarettes, where she worked closely with James Gandolfini and Kate Winslet.

Christy Montes is back to chat about those BIG talks. Christy and I have had many talks with all of our kids over the years and thought you guys might benefit from hearing from us on this topic. We have done some things well, but we have messed up plenty. If you want to have […] The post How to Have Those BIG Talks with Your Kids with Christy Montes appeared first on Ultimate Homeschool Podcast Network.

Tricia Brouk is a performance expert, TEDx organizer, writer, director, choreographer, podcast host, and producer of theatre, TV and film. She hosts The Big Talk, a podcast series on iTunes and currently directs and dramaturges Big Talks and Keynotes. She is the current organizer of TEDxLincolnSquare – Risk Takers and Change Makers.  She has produced, directed or choreographed several award-winning theatre and TV/Film productions. Through her company, The Big Talk, she helps people identify, craft and deliver a life-changing Big Talk or Keynote.  Period in full time business and business background  She has owned a company for over 26 years. She moved to New York City from Missouri to pursue a dance career and had no interest in being a starving artist. She started Brouk Moves, an elite in-home personal training company where she hired people to work for her so that she could still make money even when she was on the road. The company has been going strong, has 15 trainers, 25 clients and recently started a personal chef service. The business has enabled her to pursue a creative life outside of business and also given her the opportunity to create a new business, The Big Talk.  Brouk Moves has been her primary income for the last 26 years and has enabled her to pay all her bills, avoid the life of a starving artist and produce theatre. Her team works on the business full time so she can have time to pursue other things.  Starving artists  She says she sees this a lot in the industry and she has observed that artists feel unworthy of making money, because when they make money they then feel that they are selling out, and that they are not truly artists.  She says artists deserve to be paid for what they are worth, to have money and create art simultaneously.  Tip: You are not giving up your artist soul by taking a big fat pay check  First gig  In her first big European tour, she got a weekly pay check to do what she loves including touring, dancing, and being a full time artist. That was while Brouk Moves was still bringing in money because her team was doing all the work. That when she knew she could make a living as an artist in the long term while also making a living as a business woman.  Tip: Once you pursue and achieve what your goal is, do not let go of that business! Do not think that you have to choose. You can maintain them both equally  Getting into entrepreneurship  She decided early on that she would live the way she wanted without being poor or waiting for gigs to find her. She is proactive, mindful and kind in the way she runs her business. Her trainers take time off whenever they want and the rest sub for them.  Tip 1: Stop waiting for that big artist contract, start creating your art, start creating your business, because if you wait for someone else to do it for you, you will spend your entire life waiting.  Tip 2: Get busy, create art no matter where it is, no matter what it is. Keep your artist muscle flexing and find a way to make money on your own terms  The first months in the fitness business  She started by working very hard and personally training all the clients she had. She used to wake up at 4.30am and would do the client training while also dancing and performing. Once she realised that she could hire a team to take on some of the work, she created a system where she could always be involved but didn't need to be there. That enabled her to reduce her commutes, and her time was spent doing other things. When she hired other people, she had to trust them, let go, and make sure that she put systems in place to ensure the business would run efficiently.  Tip 1: If you are starting up, you have to dig in, roll up your sleeves and do the work  Tip 2: When starting out, you have to create a solid foundation first, then you can back off and do the other things that you want to do  Choosing personal training  She says personal training was very organically...
