Podcasts about bold when you need it most

I loved talking to Jonah Sachs. He is an author, speaker and viral marketing pioneer. His new approaches to digital media have been critical in bringing the ideals of social change — such as equity, empowerment, responsibility and transparency — to the forefront of business and popular culture. He had over 60 million views on his videos even before YouTube was a thing. His first book 'Winning The Story Wars' catapulted him onto the global speaking scene talking about storytelling for brands and causes and how to be heard in a world of media noise and clamor. He has a warmth about him which shows he cares deeply about people and the planet. He is also a deep thinker and strives to move beyond the comfortable and always into fresh and stimulating waters. His latest book 'Unsafe Thinking' How to Be Nimble and Bold When You Need It Most is a great example of this. I hope you enjoy the conversation, I am sure you will find it stimulating in many ways.

What is an idea or goal that you wake up thinking about? What resources exist in your network, whether that be people, experiences, skills, and projects, do you feel inspired by daily? How are you working towards building a life of impact? And how do you turn the fear of starting into a solid bet on your potential?In this episode, Deborah takes the time to explain the story of the creation of this podcast. It started as a suggestion from a friend a year ago, but the journey that it has taken to invest in the design and genesis of this community forced Deborah to take a bet on herself. Deborah recalls the people that she has meant along the way, her podcast sisterhood, coach Adrienne, and more. She breaks down the feeling of an idea being “good enough” and how powerful the follow button is on social media. Podcasting is a slow burn and just like any idea, if you want to explore and build a community, you have to take a chance on yourself first. In this episode, you will learn about the “why” behind the creation of the Voices of Disruption Podcast Community and how it will become a launching point for your ability to believe in your potential. If you're looking for a deep and thoughtful reflection on the power of “We vs. Me” and “Us vs. Myself” when leaning into the fear of starting something new, then this is the episode for you!Key resources mentioned:Book Cover Inspiration: Unsafe Thinking: How to be Nimble and Bold When You Need It Most by Jonah SachsAdrienne White, My Podcast Coach and Host of the She's So Cool Podcasthttps://www.fempowermedia.com/https://www.instagram.com/fempowermedia/.Podcast Sisterhood Shows: (check them out!)JungleRose Podcast with Marley and JaeConversations with KatySisters and Sonder Podcast with Tori and SammeeShe Talks White with SydneThe Yo Fly Aunty Podcast with KendraThe Parenting Cipher with GenieConnect with Deborah Olatunji on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/deb_olatunji/The Voices of Disruption Website: www.deboraholatunji.com/podcast

"There's this comfortable way of thinking that we're programmed by evolution to enjoy, which is thinking in patterns. That makes life so much easier and so much more approachable, when we rely on lessons we've learned in the past, when we observe other people and we do the things that they're doing, when we create predictability. It all just makes life easy to process. It's pretty good when the world stays still. The problem is, what feels safe is actually really dangerous if the world is changing around us." And that's what prompted Jonah Sachs, storyteller, author and entrepreneur, to write Unsafe Thinking: How to be Creative and Bold When You Need It Most. In this episode Jonah reveals how he went about researching the book by interviewing high-profile unsafe thinkers ("I realised if I wanted to get them to talk to me I'd have to say I was writing a book...") and explains how he uses stories to translate facts and findings into a narrative that readers will connect with, and therefore understand and remember more easily. There's some profound wisdom and practical tips for would-be business book writers, and some thoughts on what writing means for a 21st-century business owner. This is pure gold. Put the kettle on and listen up.
