Podcasts about career growth

About Tam Lawrence: I built my career in public relations before I built media infrastructure. After more than two decades working across brand communications, publishing, and executive visibility, I recognized a structural breakdown in how communities access trustworthy media. Local journalism was collapsing. Civic participation was declining. Digital platforms prioritized algorithms over accountability. That observation led to the creation of PIQSTAR INC., a public benefit corporation engineered to restore civic mass media infrastructure through streaming television. As Founder of PIQSTAR INC. and CEO of Exposure Plus TV, I have invested millions to launch a platform reaching over 1.3 million interested viewers and more than 264,000 loyal subscribers. Our model integrates OTT/CTV distribution with equitable labor frameworks designed to revive displaced journalists, empower local content producers, and create sustainable monetization ecosystems. Our flagship application, Economic Relief for Content Creators, establishes a structured pathway for community-based filmmakers, daytime television producers, and independent journalists to generate revenue through aligned partnerships and fixed-placement media models. This is not simply a streaming platform. It is a civic utility. We are rebuilding local journalism, restoring public access to government proceedings, and creating a media infrastructure that places community ownership at the center. My work sits at the intersection of: Civic engagement. Media innovation. Economic liberation for creators. Public benefit governance. If you are building the future of trusted media, I welcome the conversation.   https://www.piqstar.com/ https://www.exposureplustv.tv/ https://canyouhearmepod.beam.ly/ Thank you for listening to "Can You Hear Me?".

Why being true to yourself enables you to show up better for others.From the way you communicate, to the way you build your life and career, Graham Weaver, MBA '99, says it's about “giving yourself permission to fully be yourself. You can never go wrong when you're saying your truth.”Weaver is a lecturer in management, a GSB alum, and the founder and a partner of Alpine Investors. He stresses the importance of direct communication, highlighting how avoiding it can lead to wasted time, energy, and even financial losses. Reflecting on his own experiences in private equity, Weaver admits to struggling with being conflict-averse and not speaking his truth directly, which resulted in getting into bad deals and big losses for his company. “People think that by being indirect, they're being kind, but all they're doing is creating confusion,” he says. “Clarity is compassionate. Even if it's not what they want to hear, the more direct and clear you can be, the more compassionate that is for the other person.”In this Rethinks episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Weaver and host Matt Abrahams explore how being true to oneself not only fosters personal fulfillment but also enables us to show up better for others. Authenticity and self-belief lay the foundation for effective communication, leadership, and ultimately, success.Episode Reference Links:Graham WeaverConnect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (03:56) - Direct Communication & Limiting Beliefs (07:06) - The Internal Game (08:11) - An Asymmetrical Life (13:23) - Taylor Swift & Grit (16:17) - Pursuing Enlightenment (20:31) - The Final Three Questions (27:28) - Conclusion   ********Thank you to our sponsors.  These partnerships support the ongoing production of the podcast, allowing us to bring it to you at no cost.This episode is brought to you by Babbel.

In Episode 92 of The EA Campus Podcast, we explore how AI is changing inbox management for Executive Assistants in a practical, day-to-day way. If you support one Executive or several, you already know how quickly inboxes can take over the rhythm of your day. Constant checking, forwarding, reacting, and chasing can easily become the default way of working. In this episode, we walk through what a typical EA day actually looks like and talk honestly about how we can build a clearer structure around email, rather than letting it dictate everything.We start by looking at why inbox habits matter. As EAs, we handle a significant volume of communication, and the way we process email shapes expectations around response times and availability. When we are constantly checking and escalating messages in real time, we create a pace that is hard to sustain. Research shows that task switching reduces focus, and email is one of the biggest contributors. So we explore how triage creates structure, and how AI tools such as Microsoft Copilot and Google Gemini can reduce the time spent reading and drafting without removing our responsibility to think and decide.From there, we move into the morning pre-triage stage. This is where we use built-in summary features in Outlook and Gmail to scan long threads, extract key decisions, and identify open questions before replying. Instead of reading every message line by line, we generate a structured overview and then sense-check it. We revisit the 4 Ds framework. Do, Delegate, Defer, Delete or archive. Every email needs an outcome. AI can assist by drafting routine responses and suggesting meeting confirmations, but the decision about what happens to that email remains with us.We then look at how AI supports your dedicated processing block. Drafting replies in your Executive's tone using Copilot or Gemini, suggesting meeting times using calendar data, and converting emails into tasks through Microsoft To Do, Planner, or Google Tasks. The shift here is simple. The inbox is where requests arrive. Your task manager is where work is tracked. For EAs who are newer to this way of working, the advice is to start small. Choose one integration and use it consistently so that the system becomes habit rather than another layer of admin.Midday, we focus on decision support and meeting preparation. Before a one-to-one or board meeting, you can prompt Copilot or Gemini to summarise recent email exchanges with a specific stakeholder, extract unresolved questions, and list commitments made. That gives you a working briefing note in minutes. We also cover how to draft structured follow-up emails with next steps, owners, and deadlines, then refine them so they reflect how your Executive communicates. Over the course of a week, those small time savings add up and allow you to focus on clarity and preparation.Finally, we cover follow-ups, accountability, and the end-of-day reset. Many inbox tools allow you to set reminders for unanswered emails so that important threads do not disappear. We also talk about bulk archiving in Gmail and Outlook to reset an overgrown inbox while keeping everything searchable. The episode closes with a reminder that AI can reduce reading time, assist with drafting, surface unanswered threads, and support meeting preparation. It does not replace your role in prioritising, protecting sensitive information, and managing your Executive's time with intention. The EA Campus

In this episode of Programmatic Digest, Hélène sits down with Tiffany Wade, Media Director at Hunter Blue, for a grounded conversation on community building, mentorship, and leadership as a woman in programmatic and ad tech. Tiffany shares her path into media, from a psychology background and early career pivots to finding her footing through curiosity, asking better questions, and building relationships that opened doors. They talk about what it feels like to be "the only one" in the room, how to stay brave while navigating discomfort, and why finding your community matters, even if you have to build it or move toward it. The conversation also breaks down what mentorship really is, how to approach mentors with clarity, and why mentorship is a two-way exchange. Tiffany explains her servant-leadership approach to mentoring, how she helps mentees get self-aware about their goals, and why networks, resources, and honest feedback can accelerate growth. They close with encouragement for anyone feeling drained by work and life pressures, and Tiffany's reminder to protect your peace by understanding what actually replenishes you, not what self-care is "supposed" to look like.

Is workplace culture just perks and pizza… or is it how your team feels on Sunday night before Monday morning?In this episode of The STL Bucket List Show, Lucas Farrell sits down with Jamal Cornelious — executive coach, leadership strategist, and host of Gateway to Growth — to talk about what it really takes to build meaningful careers and stronger workplace culture in St. Louis.From navigating career pivots to launching Mission Defined, Jamal shares how leaders can create environments where people actually want to show up — and why culture isn't a slogan, it's a standard.They discuss: - Why “culture” is more than office perks and team happy hours - The Sunday night test: how to measure if your workplace is healthy - The reality behind career growth (and why social media isn't real life) - How St. Louis professionals can build influence in a relationship-driven city - The Show-Me State mindset — and why credibility matters hereThis conversation goes beyond business strategy — it's about leadership, identity, accountability, and building something that lasts in St. Louis.Whether you're an entrepreneur, a mid-career professional, or leading a growing team, this episode challenges you to rethink what culture actually means.Check out the Gateway to Growth Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/5fnkGXd8OAH9GZjX3txQKl

This is our first episode recorded live in Sweden, here at Fotografiska Stockholm. And I couldn't imagine a better guest to open this chapter.In this episode, I get to interview the brilliant Keika Lee, Director of Global Public Affairs at IKEA.Keika grew up in Sweden with Korean heritage, in a family where discipline and hard work were part of everyday life. She was on her way to becoming a classical pianist, with auditions at Juilliard and the Conservatoire in Paris, and then she made a decision that surprised many: she walked away.What followed wasn't a straight career path, but years of trial and error. Keika tried many different roles: from bartending and working airport security to studying political science, building a fashion brand with her sister and working in consultancy. From the outside, It might look scattered, but it became one of her biggest strengths: learning how people behave and how to read the room.This episode might make you pause and ask yourself whether what you're building is actually aligned with who you are, and remind you that nothing you try is ever wasted.Read more about the Women Authors of Achievement (WAA) Podcast via waa.berlin/aboutFollow us on Instagram & find us on LinkedInSubscribe to our newsletter via waa.berlin/newsletter ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

In this episode of The Nursing Strategies for Success Podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Emily Knife, MSN, RN, CYT, CMT for a powerful and forward-thinking conversation about Nursing, growth, and creating meaningful impact in today's healthcare environment. ✅Emily shares insight from her professional journey and discusses what it really takes for Nurses to step into higher levels of influence, responsibility, and confidence. We dive into the importance of intentional career development, building credibility, and positioning yourself as a solution-driven leader rather than simply reacting to the daily demands of the system.One of the strongest themes throughout our conversation is the power of preparation and perspective. Emily emphasizes that Nurses who seek to grow must be willing to expand their skill sets, understand operations beyond the bedside, and communicate their value clearly in rooms where decisions are being made. From leadership development to navigating organizational structures, she offers practical strategies that Nurses at any level can begin applying immediately.We also discuss the realities of working within complex systems and how shifting your mindset — from overwhelmed to strategic — can open doors to opportunities you may not have considered before. When Nurses strengthen their knowledge, refine their voice, and align themselves with growth opportunities, they don't just advance their careers — they elevate the profession.If you are ready to move with intention, grow beyond your current role, and develop strategies that position you for long-term success, this is a conversation you don't want to miss.

In The EA Campus Podcast Ep 90, we sit down with Alicia and Yvette, the creators of the EA Salary Survey, to explore how the report came to life and why having a large, representative dataset really matters. We talk about the difference between small, skewed reports and meaningful data, and why transparency around respondent numbers is essential when you're making career decisions.We unpack the key findings from 2024 and 2025 across the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. EA salaries are above regional averages in most areas; education does not automatically determine earnings; and only two specific benefits in each country truly move the needle on job satisfaction. Career progression, however, consistently impacts whether people plan to stay or leave.We also discuss hybrid versus remote working, peak earning years, and the gap between actual salary and salary satisfaction. One of the most important insights is that perception and progression often matter more than headline figures. Context is everything. Location, industry, and experience all play a role.Finally, we share practical advice on how to use the report properly. Read it carefully. Compare like-for-like. Use it as part of a strategic business case rather than a blunt instrument. This episode is about perspective, evidence, and helping you make informed decisions about your career. The EA Campus

Do you remember the early days of your career? You likely spent hours coding late into the night, fueled not by a paycheck, but by the sheer joy of building. But somewhere along the way, that intrinsic fire faded, replaced by the extrinsic motivators of Jira tickets, performance reviews, and ultimately the almighty dollar.In this episode of the Career Growth Accelerator, I explore why this shift happens and how it might be the very thing keeping you stuck. We discuss the "Overjustification Effect"—how getting paid for your passion can actually degrade your performance—and how to reclaim the autotelic personality required to enter a flow state and accelerate your career.• The Overjustification Effect: Learn why introducing extrinsic rewards (like a salary) for a task you inherently enjoy can weaken or completely replace your intrinsic motivation, eventually making the work feel like a chore.• The Loss of Flow: Discover how moving from hobbyist to professional changes your relationship with the work, often stripping away the conditions necessary for "flow state," such as risk-taking and immediate feedback.• Autotelic Personality: Understand the concept of being "autotelic"—doing something for its own sake—and why this trait is critical for high-quality, creative work that pushes your career forward.• The Stagnation Trap: Recognize that if your only motivation is doing what is required to get paid, you are unlikely to take on the voluntary challenges necessary to grow to the next level.• Reclaiming Your Drive: I discuss how finding pockets of intrinsic motivation—even if they are ancillary to your main job—can reignite your ability to enter flow, improve your work quality, and break through career plateaus.

You're disciplined. You're committed. You show up every day and put in the work. But what happens when effort and motivation aren't delivering the results you know you're capable of? Santiago Brand is an international educator and consultant in brain mapping and neurofeedback who uses real brain data to reveal what's actually happening when people perform, stall, or burn out. Trained as both a sport and clinical psychologist, Santiago has spent over 17 years across more than 26 countries helping leaders and high performers improve focus, recover faster from stress, and perform with greater consistency—not by grinding harder, but by understanding the brain that's running the show. In this conversation, Santiago reveals why even the most driven individuals hit invisible walls. You'll discover how trauma markers and emotional dysregulation show up in brain maps, why high performers resist the truth about their own humanity, and how quantitative EEG technology turns invisible obstacles into something you can finally work with. Because once you see what your brain is doing, you can't unsee it—and that's when real transformation begins. If you've ever felt like you're doing all the right things but the breakthrough still hasn't happened, this episode shows you exactly where to look next.

This episode is a replay of a powerful livestream focused on growing your career after hard times. I emphasize the importance of feeling your feelings, giving yourself credit for everything you've accomplished, and choosing one area of your career where you can take small but concrete steps towards your goals. I share my personal experiences with mental health challenges, burnout, and the significance of advocating for yourself at work. Lastly, I answer audience questions about interviewing, salary negotiation, and navigating shame in your career journey. Resources and Links6-Month 1:1 Coaching: https://calendly.com/thefirstgencoach/discovery-callApply for On-Air Coaching: https://forms.gle/JshV6Z6TfUw6BBnk6Download your⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠FREE Resume Guide and Template⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow @⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CarlaTheFirstGenCoach⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Grammy winning country pop star Maren Morris has made her way to New Zealand as a headlining act. After starting at just 15 years old, her 20 year career has seen her break boundaries, win numerous awards, and producing multiplatinum and gold certified music. Morris is a few shows into her ‘Dreamsicle' tour, having performed in Australia and Auckland, with one more show in Christchurch before she hops over to the States. She told Mike Hosking headlining her own tour has been incredible. “We've only done a handful of shows, but the crowds are so energetic, and they're also a listening crowd,” Morris explained. “They really want to hear the stories behind the songs and how they were written ... it's a great balance of like, y'know, they want to hear the backstories, but they're also having fun and dancing.” “It's a perfect crowd.” Morris' career started early, but that doesn't mean her success came early as well, which she says made the transition easier to handle. “Nothing of my career has happened overnight, or has been like, too quick to digest.” “The saying in Nashville is that it's a ten-year town, so it takes ten years for most of the successful people to even have a song or album that resonates,” Morris told Hosking. “I think there's obviously with any big success, there is a dose of timing and luck, all of those things.” “You just have to keep going and keep your eye on the target because it is ever moving.” LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Many people think I'm a negotiation coach, but I'm really a practitioner of change working at the intersection of ancient Eastern philosophy and modern Western neuroscience.The Science: Quantum physicists like David Bohm and Zen masters in the mountains agree: Everything you think is "solid" (your desk, your body, your obstacles) is actually 99.9999999% empty space. Similarly, neuroscientists like Michael Gazzaniga have found that there is no singular, fixed "I" in your brain. You are a "Society of Mind," an aggregate of different parts negotiating conflicting and inherently empty impulses in real-time. The Philosophy: In Zen, this is encapsulated in a single character: Mu (無). It often gets translated as “empty,” but it can also reference a kind of boundlessness.The Intersection: When you realize matter is mostly space, the "solid" walls in your mind begin to soften. You realize you are not your self-talk, the very thoughts that lie at the root of professional stress. Instead, you are the boundless potential behind the action. What you'll learn in this episode: 02:15 – The Humble, Good News: Why you don't need a PhD or to become a monk to benefit from these fundamental truths04:30 – Your "Society of Mind": How the illusion of being a fixed, singular "I" is dismantled by both modern neuroscience and ancient wisdom. 06:50 – Tyranny of Self-Talk: Getting to the root of all professional stress when external circumstances don't seem to go your way. 07:45 – The Liberation of "Mu": What becomes possible when new perspectives enable new ways of thinking, feeling, and responding to circumstance beyond our control. 09:30 – The 3 Stages of Change: A roadmap through Dissolution (of negative self-talk), Mental Rehearsal, and Embodied Brave Action.11:00 – The Fortress of Trust: Why true trust comes from realizing your "self" is not a fragile, solid thing that can be broken.12:15 – Creator & Masterpiece: When tangible results like getting promoted and better paid are the byproduct of accessing a deeper truth of who you really are. To learn more about working with me 1:1, come on over to https://www.jamieleecoach.com/apply Text me your thoughts on this episode!Enjoy the show?

In this episode of The EA Campus Podcast, we're talking about how to decide which AI tools are actually worth your time as an Executive Assistant, and which ones you can safely ignore.If you've felt pressure to keep up with every new AI release, or you've tested tools that looked promising but never quite fit your day-to-day work, this episode is for you.I'm sharing how I make decisions about AI from an EA perspective. Starting with the work we're responsible for, not the features being promoted. We'll talk about inboxes, calendars, executive prep, documents, events, and decision support. The real work EAs are doing every day.This isn't a tool roundup or a comparison episode. It's a practical conversation about judgement, focus, and choosing tools that reduce mental load rather than add to it.If you want a calmer, more realistic way to approach AI in your role, this episode will help you think it through.

It is review season, and you might be finding yourself confused: you received high ratings and "exceeded expectations," yet the promotion you expected didn't happen. In this episode of the Career Growth Accelerator, I break down exactly why high performance doesn't always lead to promotion, helping you identify the structural roadblocks and strategic shifts necessary to move from senior individual contributor to staff, principal, or leadership roles,.• Understand why your performance review is never conducted in a vacuum and why your manager's peers—not just your manager—are the "voters" you need to convince with clear evidence,.• Learn why high ratings often fail to translate into a promotion if you haven't demonstrated specific impact on the company's strategic goals rather than just your own deliverables.• Discover the first major roadblock: Structural limitations where the role you want simply doesn't exist because the business context or organizational pyramid doesn't currently support it,.• Explore the concept of "Outer Layers" of scope—moving from self-focus to team-focus, and finally to business-strategy focus—to unlock the next stage of your career,,.• Identify the "indispensable trap" where performing too well at your current inner-layer responsibilities makes you terminal in your role rather than promotable.

In this episode, Monique explores a moment so many high-achieving women experience. That moment an opportunity appears and you quietly start building a case for why you shouldn't take it.Using the launch of her new YouTube channel as a real-time example, Monique shares what it looks like to move forward without waiting to feel “ready.” She unpacks the familiar fears that often surface when visibility increases, such as What if it flops? What if people judge me? What if I'm not enough? and offers a grounded reframe.For anyone sitting on a pivot, a transition, or a new chapter, Monique encourages you to shoot the shot, stop self-disqualifying and see what happens. LINKSJoin Monique's NewsletterApply for her upcoming Retreat March 1-4, 2026 in Palm Springs, CAGEMS DROPPED“​Don't ​count ​yourself ​out ​before ​​you ​give ​it ​a ​shot.”“We ​have ​this ​​very ​interesting ​relationship ​to ​our ​achievements ​as ​high ​achievers ​where ​it's ​like ​as ​soon ​as ​you ​achieve ​something, ​you ​write ​it ​off. ​It's ​just ​like, ​okay, ​on ​to ​the ​next.We ​have ​just ​been ​dismissing ​over ​and ​over ​and ​over ​again, ​not ​enoughing ​over ​and ​over ​and ​over ​again. ​Through ​every milestone, ​every ​point ​of ​new ​expansion, ​every ​big ​lesson ​learned, ​or every ​iInternal ​shift.
