    Today on the program, a trip into the archive and a return to Episode 396, my conversation with Margaret Malone. We were talking about her debut story collection, People Like You (Atelier 26 Books). It was a finalist for the PEN / Hemingway Award for First Fiction, and it won the 2016 Balcones Fiction Prize.   Air date: January 13, 2016. A recent MacDowell Fellow, Margaret's writing has appeared or is forthcoming from BOMB, The Missouri Review, The Rumpus, Oregon Humanities, Paper Darts, The Masters Review, and elsewhere. She is a graduate of Randolph's M.F.A. program (the best in the country in her opinion), and Humboldt State University where she received a B.A. in Philosophy. She lives with her husband filmmaker Brian Padian and two children in Portland, Oregon. Margaret has been a volunteer facilitator with the non-profit Write Around Portland and a co-host of the artist and literary gathering SHARE. She is the recipient of grants and fellowships from the Ford Family Foundation, the MacDowell Foundation, Oregon Arts Commission, the Regional Arts & Culture Council, and Literary Arts. She hosts the interview series & radio show Bust the Canon on XRAY.FM and teaches creative writing through Stanford's Distinguished Careers Institute and in Portland at Literary Arts.She also works with people individually through The Blue Wolf Writers, mentoring both established and emerging writers on their projects in person and online.  And, oh yeah, she started a Substack, too. A former member of the Dangerous Writers, in her heart she will always spend Thursday nights at the northeast corner of the table in Tom Spanbauer's basement. *** ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Otherppl with Brad Listi⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ is a weekly podcast featuring in-depth interviews with today's leading writers.

She explains why a “results list” can be more effective than a traditional to-do list by focusing on meaningful outcomes, recommends a digital brain dump for capturing ideas instead of relying on memory, and introduces the “someday list” as a place to write down the dreams and experiences you want to pursue... even when you have no idea how you'll achieve them yet. Rachel encourages listeners to spend less energy simply staying busy and instead create systems that help them make measurable progress, free up mental space, and stay connected to the future they want to build.*Friday Favorites are a collection of our all-time most popular episodes replayed for the newest members of the community and anyone who wants a relisten.

As the US and Britain increasingly govern through prohibition, austerity, and criminalization, the reach of policing and punishment has rapidly expanded—both inside and outside the prison walls. Vicky Osterweil, S. Lamble, and Beatrice Adler-Bolton will discuss the carcerality of the anti-trans panic, its centrality to health fascism, and what abolition can teach us about defending care beyond the limits of the state.

    Episode No. 776 of The Modern Art Notes Podcast features artist Mark Thomas Gibson and curator Ben Colman. The Tang Museum at Skidmore College is presenting "Mark Thomas Gibson: We Are a Constellation," a survey of Gibson's recent considerations of US history and the relationship between our past and our present. The exhibition was curated by Ian Berry in collaboration with the artist and is on view through January 3, 2027. Gibson's work is also featured in  "The Crossing: Picturing the American Revolution" at the Michener Art Museum, Doylestown, Penn. "The Crossing" looks at how artists have represented Continental Army commander-in-chief George Washington's crossing of the Delaware River on Christmas night, 1776. "The Crossing" is particularly interested in how artists have built on and often 'refuted' Emanuel Leutze's famed 1851 Washington Crossing the Delaware, which is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York. The exhibition, which was curated by Laura Igoe, is up through January 10, 2027. An exhibition of Gibson's recent work opens at Philadelphia's Fleisher/Ollman Gallery tomorrow, and remains on view through November 7. Among the institutions that have presented solo shows of Gibson's work are the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, The Library Company of Philadelphia, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit. Colman is the curator of "Georgia O'Keeffe: Architecture" at the Detroit Institute of Arts. Across about 35 paintings, the exhibition examines O'Keeffe's career-long interest in buildings and the built environment. It's on view through January 3, 2007. The DIA has published a catalogue that is available from Amazon and Bookshop for $32-34. Instagram: Mark Thomas Gibson, Ben Colman, Tyler Green. Air date: September 17, 2026.

    The Neighbor I Thought I Knew For twenty years, Irv lived directly across the street from Skip. They weren't strangers. They had shared meals. Shoveled snow. Looked out for each other during power outages. By any reasonable definition, they were good neighbors. Skip thought he knew Irv. Then, one late-summer weekend, a simple request for a fair gave him a reason to cross the street. In this short Skip's Quips wisdom story, Skip recounts what happened when he agreed to check on Irv while the rest of the family was away. What was supposed to be a quick visit turned into a long conversation, a walk through neighborhood history, a tour of Irv's garden—and several return trips across Parkwood Road. Along the way, Skip discovers there can be a surprising difference between knowing someone for a long time and actually knowing them. It's a story about neighbors, attention and the small distances we allow to remain between ourselves and people who are already part of our lives. Sometimes a little wisdom is waiting just across the street. Why This Story Matters It's easy to confuse familiarity with closeness. We wave. We exchange a few words. We know where someone lives, maybe a little about their family. And years can pass that way. In Skip's case, twenty of them did. Irv's story is a gentle reminder that knowing someone better rarely requires a grand gesture. Sometimes it begins by staying a little longer than you planned, listening when you could have kept moving, or accepting an invitation you almost declined. Where's the Wise Guest? What's a "Skip's Quip?" Every so often, The Main Thing Podcast does something a little different. Instead of a conversation with a wise guest, Skip's Quips gives host Skip Lineberg the microphone for a short wisdom story or reflection—usually in about ten minutes or less. We publish about four of these special episodes each year alongside our regular wisdom conversations. Think of them as small pauses in the usual rhythm of the show: one story, one reflection and a little wisdom worth carrying with you.

    What happens to your whole world when the king decides your faith is wrong? Richard Smith's new book, Beyond Where Words Can Go, follows two young Benedictine monks, a lord's youngest son and a foundling left on the monastery doorstep, through Henry VIII's dissolution of the monasteries and all the back and forth of the English Reformation. And it's told entirely in sonnets. Two hundred of them! Richard is a clinical psychologist in Washington, DC who started writing sonnets for his dog (yes, really), and I loved talking with him about what it felt like to live inside the old faith, where the monks went when their homes were pulled down, and why the sonnet turned out to be the perfect way to tell this story. Our friend Gerry joined us live with some great questions about the manuscripts lost when the monasteries fell. Find Richard at richardsmithwriting.com and on Instagram @richardsmithwriting.

(where she attended undergrad with former co-host Sofiya Alexandra!), and went on to study anthropology, as well as human sexuality at the Kinsey Institute—giving her a unique perspective on the differences between American and Belizean attitudes toward sex, relationships, gender, and culture in general.Lyra gets candid about what it's like to be sexually open in a conservative Christian culture, why kink and ethical non-monogamy largely stay underground, and how LGBTQ+ visibility in Belize has changed since she was growing up. We also talk about blended families and co-parenting, passport privilege and the hurdles Belizeans face traveling to the United States, drug trafficking and gangs, political corruption, feminism and traditional gender roles, and Belize's deeply homosocial culture—where men and women often socialize separately and even friendships across genders can be viewed through a sexual lens. Plus, Lyra explains why Americans can mistake a shared language for a shared culture, and what visitors and expats should understand about Belize before assuming they've got the place figured out.For more from today's guest, Lyra Spang:Take a tour with Taste Belize (highly recommend!) tastebelize.com/toursFollow Taste Belize on Instagram @tastebelizetoursBuy a copy of Lyra's book, Bite Yu Finga!: Innovating Belizean CuisineGet your copy of Girl Gone Wild from ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.Psst, Courtney has an 0nIyFan$, which is a horny way to support the show: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠onlyfans⁠.com/cocopeepshow⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Private Parts Unknown is a proud member of the Pleasure Podcast network.

    AI Can Reduce Symptoms. But Is That Therapy? Ted Faneuff on artificial intelligence, human connection, therapist burnout, and what technology can—and can't—replace. I'm gonna potentially anger some folks, but here I go: I understand that AI has become a moral issue (on top of being an environmental one). That said, while I agree with some of the concerns, the tech does offer major benefits. Don't @ me. You can find plenty of recent episodes where I wrestle with the pros and cons of using artificial intelligence in therapeutic spaces. Add this conversation with Ted Faneuff, LCSW, to that list.  Ted is the clinical operations leader at Upheal, an AI-powered platform that helps therapists manage progress notes, treatment plans, and other daily operations.  We dig into the questions shaping the AI debate and motivations guiding three distinct user groups: therapists who are firmly opposed to AI, therapists who are cautiously curious, and therapists who are already enthusiastically adopting the tech in their practices.  Where would you place yourself on this spectrum?

    The swan has carried more symbolic weight in European tradition than almost any other animal — beauty understood as divine since at least the Greeks, grace that the old stories treated as a kind of power in disguise. The Moon in Carolina host Shelby Bundy traces the folklore from Apollo's sacred bird to the Irish Children of Lir, through the belief that swans arrive from the Otherworld in the dark months of the year, and the quiet folk tradition that a person cannot die peacefully on a pillow stuffed with swan feathers.

How do bonded pairs communicate? Is the bond permanent, or can it be severed? How rare is it to bond with a creature? Do the creature and the human(oid) need some sort of training to work together?

    Do you believe it when other people say, “You're worthy just because you exist,” or do you simply grimace, pretend you agree, and move forward? It can be difficult to have a real sense of self-worth. Not the kind that we advertise on social media with our highlight reels, but the genuine sense of self-worth: the way you treat yourself and, in turn, how you treat others. If you're a member of our community, you probably understand this feeling – maybe you've suffered grief, loss, tragedy, anxiety, depression, etc… Digging past the performative self-esteem and accessing true understanding of your own self-worth can feel – let's face it – impossible, especially when you're trying to just keep your head above water. Today, Nora is joined by Dr. Marisa Franco to help us all understand what self-worth and self-esteem truly are and how we can access them authentically to show up for ourselves and the people around us.

Her forthcoming novel Upstate comes out October 27. Her books have been translated into eleven languages. After a career teaching writing at Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania, she now works at aån independent bookstore in Saratoga Springs, New York, where she lives with her partner, their rescue dog, and two feisty backyard chickens.In Fingersmith, Sue Trinder is an orphan, left as an infant in the care of Mrs. Sucksby, a "baby farmer," who raised her with unusual tenderness, as if Sue were her own. One day, the most beloved thief of all arrives—Gentleman, an elegant con man, who carries with him an enticing proposition for Sue: If she wins a position as the maid to Maud Lilly, a naïve gentlewoman, and aids Gentleman in her seduction, then they will all share in Maud's vast inheritance. But no one and nothing is as it seems in this Dickensian novel of thrills and reversals.Sarah Waters is the author of several novels, including the New York Times–bestselling The Paying Guests. She has been short-listed for the Man Booker Prize three times. Granta named her of their best young British novelists.

    What does it take to turn former farmland into a thriving wildlife corridor—and build a conservation movement where women, local communities, rangers, and global partners all have a role to play? About This EpisodeIn Episode 207 of the Adventures in Learning podcast, Dr. Diane continues the Wild Tomorrow series with Tori Gray, Wild Tomorrow's Development & Partner Relations Manager. Tori shares her journey from a 2017 intern to a conservation leader living and working in the bush in KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa. She takes us inside Wild Tomorrow's growing Greater Ukuwela Nature Reserve, where habitat restoration, wildlife protection, local employment, and meaningful partnerships work together to create space for a wilder future.This is a conversation about connection: connection to wildlife, to the land, to the people doing the daily work of conservation, and to the possibilities that emerge when we collaborate rather than compete. Tori reflects on the all-women Green Mambas restoration team, rhino protection and orphan care, the power of wildlife corridors, responsible conservation travel, and the advice she would offer young people hoping to build a career that protects the planet.Wild Tomorrow works to protect, restore, and connect habitat in KwaZulu-Natal—part of a globally significant biodiversity region—while partnering with local communities and conservation organizations to protect threatened wildlife and wild spaces.Chapters00:50 From intern to Development & Partner Relations Manager03:06 Growing a reserve: giraffe releases, land purchases, and rewilding05:00 The Green Mambas: conservation, community, and women's leadership07:54 Why conservation begins with connection to nature12:34 Stronger together: partnerships for rhino conservation13:54 Rhino orphan care, anti-poaching, and prevention18:04 From pineapple farm to wildlife corridor20:47 Removing 300 snares—and a wild dog's hopeful return22:51 Turning snares into stories, art, and awareness23:30 How a childhood love of elephants became a conservation career26:34 Brody, the conservation corgi27:08 What brings Tori hopeHighlightsTori began with Wild Tomorrow as an intern in 2017, shortly after the organization purchased its first 500-hectare property. Today, the Greater Ukuwela Nature Reserve has expanded to more than 5,000 acres of protected habitat.Wild Tomorrow's Green Mambas are an all-women habitat restoration team whose work includes removing invasive plants and helping restore grasslands, woodlands, and forest systems so native vegetation and wildlife can recover.Through restoration, rewilding, anti-poaching support, community partnerships, and conservation education, Wild Tomorrow is working to connect larger protected landscapes and create more room for wildlife to move and thrive.Tori reminds us that conservation needs many kinds of skills. Whether your strengths are in science, fundraising, communications, education, tourism, project management, art, or relationship-building, there is a meaningful place for you in protecting our shared planet.Links & ResourcesWild TomorrowWild Tomorrow: Protecting Threatened Wildlife and Wild SpacesMeet the Wild Tomorrow TeamVolunteer with Wild Tomorrow in South AfricaChildren's Book Creators for Conservation Bring a Splash of Color and Creativity (aka Dr. Diane's trip with Wild Tomorrow)Learn About the Green MambasCelebrating the Green MambasHabitat Restoration at Greater Ukuwela Nature ReserveWild Tomorrow Education FundSupport Wild Tomorrow's Community WorkListen to the Full SeriesExplore the complete Wild Tomorrow series on the Adventures in Learning podcast:Episode 189: From Boots to a Wildlife Corridor—The Wild Tomorrow Story with Co-Founders John Steward and Wendy Hapgood (Part 1)Episode 193: People, Preschoolers, and Planet—Community Conservation with Wild Tomorrow's Aphiwe Notshaya (Part 2)Episode 198: Rewilding, Restoration, and Hope—Kevin Jolliffe and the Wild Tomorrow StoryEpisode 199: Rangers, Resilience, and Hope with Sibiya Siyabonga | Wild Tomorrow, Part 4Episode 204: Hope in the Field—The Green Mambas of Wild TomorrowTake ActionIf this conversation inspires you, please share it with a teacher, librarian, young conservationist, wildlife lover, or friend who needs a little hopeful news.Subscribe to Adventures in Learning wherever you listen to podcasts.Listen to the full Wild Tomorrow series and meet the people restoring habitat, supporting communities, and protecting wildlife in South Africa.Visit Wild Tomorrow to learn, donate, follow their work, or explore an immersive conservation experience.Talk with the young people in your life about the issues and animals they care about.

    Leveraging Thought Leadership with Peter Winick
    Translating Academic Research Into Real Business Impact | Nathan Bennett | 738

    Leveraging Thought Leadership with Peter Winick

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 13, 2026 20:43


    What actually happens when academic research meets the boardroom?    Peter Winick sits down with Nate Bennett — professor of management and faculty director of the Executive MBA program at Georgia State University's J. Mack Robinson College of Business — for a candid look at the gap between what business scholars know and what business leaders actually use. Bennett has spent his career straddling three audiences: students preparing to lead, practicing managers looking for answers, and fellow academics who reward each other for depth over accessibility. He explains why so much scholarly work is, by design, written for a room of a handful of other researchers — and why that's not necessarily a flaw. The real skill, he argues, is knowing how to translate that work for people who don't have the patience for a slow academic build. In front of executives, you have to get to the punchline fast. But speed isn't the whole story: Bennett makes the case that curiosity and humility matter just as much as expertise, and that professors who walk into a room assuming they have nothing left to learn rarely land well. The conversation also turns to a subject on every thought leader's mind right now: AI. Bennett doesn't mince words about what's happened to platforms like LinkedIn, where he says the signal-to-noise ratio has collapsed under a wave of AI-generated posts. His take on the right way to use the technology is refreshingly practical — think of it as an invisible assistant, not a ghostwriter. He shares how he uses AI to reformat dense research into readable tables, and reflects on what schools should really be protecting when they worry about students using it to cut corners: not information recall, but the ability to think and read. This is a conversation for anyone trying to figure out where real expertise ends and real relevance begins — and what to keep, and what to let AI handle, along the way.   Three Key Takeaways: • Academics write for three different audiences, and confusing them is a common trap. Scholarly work aimed at moving other researchers doesn't automatically translate into insight a practicing manager can use — the two require different pacing, structure, and even goals. • Curiosity and humility outperform "having the answer." Entering a room of executives assuming you're there to fill them with knowledge shuts the exchange down; entering curious, and open to having your thinking shaped by the room, produces a far better session. • The best use of AI is invisible. Rather than publishing AI-generated takes, the more valuable approach is using AI behind the scenes — as a tireless research and formatting assistant — while what actually gets published still reflects the author's own thinking.   If Nate's take on translating dense expertise into ideas people actually act on resonated with you, that's exactly the terrain Peter Winick, Bill Sherman, and Naren Aryal cover in The Thought Leadership Handbook. Drawing on more than 700 conversations from this very podcast, the book lays out the same tension this episode explored — how to build ideas rigorous enough to hold up and accessible enough to spread — into a practical framework you can apply to your own thinking.   Order The Thought Leadership Handbook today on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Bookshop, or directly from Amplify, and learn more at thoughtleadershiphandbook.com.

    Leveraging Thought Leadership with Peter Winick
    Leading Through Uncertainty: What Crisis Really Reveals | Tom Kolditz & Mariana Khomitska | 737

    Leveraging Thought Leadership with Peter Winick

    Play Episode Listen Later Sep 10, 2026 28:33


    What separates a leader from someone who just holds a title? This episode goes looking for the answer with two people who've watched that question get answered under real pressure: retired Brigadier General Tom Kolditz, who spent 40 years building leaders at West Point, Yale, and Rice, and Mariana Khomitska, a Ukrainian leadership development expert who has spent the last several years watching leadership get tested in wartime. Their new book, Against the Storm: How True Leaders Prevail When the World Shakes, comes out September 15 — and this conversation gets at the "why" behind it. Mariana makes a distinction that reframes the whole discussion: leadership isn't about the title or the paycheck. It's what happens when someone can't stand aside. She shares a striking example from Ukraine's energy sector, where teams under shelling did "the job for three" — not because they were told to, but because leaders had built enough trust, presence, and transparent communication that people wanted to step up. Tom brings the counterpart to that: you can't build trust in the moment a crisis hits. You have to be putting "money in the bank" every single day, long before you need it. That idea — what he calls the time value of leader development — runs through the whole conversation, along with a candid look at how the book's structure came together: real crisis stories paired with the core leadership techniques Tom has taught for decades. This isn't a book only for executives navigating a market downturn. As Mariana puts it, everyone can find something useful here — for their team, their family, their community. It's a conversation about what authentic leadership actually costs, and why it's worth paying that cost before you're forced to. Three Key Takeaways: • Trust is "money in the bank" — you can't build it in a crisis. Tom Kolditz frames leadership preparation like a financial investment: leaders who build trust and communication habits daily are the ones who have something to draw on when uncertainty hits. • Authentic leadership shows up because it can't stand aside, not because of a title. Mariana Khomitska argues that crisis strips away the trappings of leadership (status, salary, formal authority) and reveals who leads simply because someone has to. • Leadership development compounds like an interaction effect. Tom explains that developing leaders in multiple areas — like communication and decision-making — doesn't just improve each skill in isolation; the skills interact and multiply each other's impact over time. This episode isn't just a conversation about crisis leadership — it's a live example of thought leadership in action, watching two experts take decades of lived experience and turn it into a book that can scale far beyond their own careers.  If you want the playbook behind that process, pick up The Thought Leadership Handbook: How the Experts Elevate Their Big Ideas—and How You Can Too, written by your hosts Bill Sherman and Peter Winick along with publishing expert Naren Aryal. Drawing on more than 700 conversations just like this one, it breaks down the frameworks experts use to move an idea from personal insight to lasting influence.  You can find it on Amazon, Bookshop.org, Amplify or wherever books are sold.

    The Revolutionary Roots That Inspired Tupac Shakur

    More To The Story: Last month, Duane “Keffe D” Davis was found guilty of first-degree murder in the death of rapper Tupac Shakur. The verdict came 30 years after Tupac was killed in a drive-by shooting in Las Vegas that for decades remained cloaked in conspiracy theory and mystery. It's impossible to overstate rapper Tupac's influence on music and culture in the 1990s. One of the era's bestselling musical artists, he helped define West Coast hip-hop through vulnerable, introspective lyrics and Black power politics. By his own admission, sports writer Jeff Pearlman is not the rapper's likeliest biographer. But as he waited for what he called “the big, fat biography” of Tupac, his impatience and long-standing fascination with the rapper got the best of him. So he set out to write it himself. On this week's episode, Pearlman talks about his book Only God Can Judge Me: The Many Lives of Tupac Shakur; discusses how Tupac's Black Panther mother, Afeni Shakur, shaped her son; and examines the nuance and mystery that surrounded Tupac's life and death for decades.This episode first aired in June 2026.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick | Digital producer: Artis Curiskis | Intern: Joni Binder | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al LetsonRead: The 24 Best Books We Read in 2025 (Mother Jones)Listen: Baltimore Mayor to Trump: Don't Send Your Troops (More To The Story)Read: Only God Can Judge Me: The Many Lives of Tupac Shakur (Mariner Books)Note: If you buy a book using our Bookshop link, a small share of the proceeds supports our journalism.

Luanne got the idea for her adult novelty business after finding herself single and wanting a vibrator—only to discover that she couldn't find the kind of quality sex toys she wanted in Belize. Recorded during our 2021 reporting trip, Luanne reflects on turning her personal quest for better pleasure into a business and becoming a trained sex educator along the way. We also get into the shame and secrecy surrounding sex toys and masturbation in Belize, why she was initially scared to put her face behind her business, why some men feel threatened by vibrators, feminism and women's sexual agency, birth control, LGBTQ+ inclusion, and Luanne's mission to get Belizeans talking more openly about pleasure.

She is listed as #3 on the list of Top Executive Coaches of 2026 by the Industry Leader and has spent over a decade coaching C-suite leaders across industries, and served previously as deputy director at the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. She is the author of Anchored, Aligned, Accountable: A Framework for Transcending BS and Transforming Our Lives and Work (Amazon, Bookshop)*. I have seen so many activities over the years to help leaders clarify their values. I have built some of them myself. And most of them, including the ones I've built, miss a big question: what do those values actually mean? In this conversation, Aiko and I explore that question in detail to help us all do a better job of staying grounded. Key Points In an era of information everywhere, it's more challenging than ever to engage our inner awareness. An anchor keeps a ship in place during the storm. Our values do the same for us as leaders. Values aren't just decorative. Simply naming a value doesn't tell us much about what it means. Explore the behaviors that come out of labels we use for values. Those behaviors help us better align with others – and ourselves. A value label may mean one thing to one person and something entirely different to someone else. Curiosity will help you uncover what really matters to people. Beware naming values that are simply aspirational. Instead, zero in on what is actually true for you.
