In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Christina Martini discuss:How Tina pivoted from engineering to legal. Selling big law by increasing the stickiness factor through cross-selling.Minding your assets in networking and cross-marketing. Building your book of business authentically. Key Takeaways:The practice of law is not that different from having and nurturing the relationships in your life. Everything is all about relationships which are dynamic and require proactivity. Good business development, whether in a solo firm or in big law, requires a multi-pronged approach. Leverage existing clients, leverage your network, and talk to your peers. The right work for you is out there, but you've got to ask for it. Be prepared and have dynamic conversations with your potential clients. It will help build and nourish the relationship, but it will also create opportunities. As a woman, embrace who you are, embrace your femininity and who you want to be in the world when you go to market. Be authentic in your relationship building and in building your book. "The rubber really meets the road when you cross-sell your clients into areas that are completely unrelated to yours. That's how you institutionalize clients. That's how you increase the stickiness factor." — Christina MartiniFind out more about the 10 Easy-to-Execute Hacks to Unlock Your Full Potential at: fretzin.com/events Thank you to our Sponsors!Lawmatics: lawmatics.com/bethatlawyerGet Staffed Up: getstaffedup.com/bethatlawyerGreen Cardigan Marketing: greencardiganmarketing.com Episode References: Strategy and the Fat Smoker: Doing What's Obvious But Not Easy by David MaisterEmotional Intelligence: Why It Can Matter More Than IQ by Daniel Goleman About Christina Martini: Christina L.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Kass Thomas discuss: Kass's newest book, Dancing with Riches. Finding joy and happiness in our lives. Generosity of spirit for yourself and others. Being present in all things and all places. Key Takeaways: You do not have to do anything specific to achieve joy and happiness. It is about being yourself. Recognize and acknowledge what it is in your life that is so vital that without it you wouldn't be happy. Acknowledge what it is that brings you joy. COVID is inviting flexibility, alterations, creative capacities, and risk taking, not to get sick, necessarily, but taking risks to see not how you might fail, but how you not only survive, but you can thrive. Don't sweat the small stuff…and it's all small stuff. This too shall pass. "If you're willing to acknowledge what your gifts are, then your relationship with yourself, with your body, with other people, with money, with business allows you to not seek a purpose in life to reach a goal until you live your life purposefully." — Kass Thomas About Kass Thomas: Kass Thomas is a successful business entrepreneur, motivational speaker and empowerment coach. The depth and range of her life and career experiences inspires people to explore more choices and find the changes they are looking for. It is her mission in life to strengthen the unity of choice and change. She inspires clients to discover their unique brand of magic. A best-selling author, Kass Thomas has released her latest book, Dancing with Riches, as a self-empowerment manual, to encourage readers to change tracks if the journey they are on is not working for them. Within the pages of this book, readers will find a guide to transform negative into positive, and to come through a winner, even in limiting situations. Lively, anecdotal, and many times satirical, Kass' eclectic style of humor is evident. Her non-judgmental demeanor creates a safe space for many to express themselves with ease. She is a catalyst for multicultural inclusion. An unstoppable pioneer: when people say it cannot be done, she always finds a way. Kass believes there is so much more that unites us than separates us.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Kass Thomas discuss: How Kass's background has affected her personal and professional lives. Access Consciousness to know that you know. Kass's Seven Steps to Flawless Communication (her book has been translated into 20 languages). Authenticity, genuineness, and vulnerability. Key Takeaways: Be aware of what people are willing to hear and understand how to speak in a way that is not offensive to those people. Allow space and time for repositioning and finding who you really are. Each and every person in this world is vital to this planet. Don't let your business run you. You have to fill your own well before you can gift yourself to others and help to fill other people. "If you are really willing to honor yourself and to take care of you, fill your cup up with water, let your cup of water overflow, then you will always have more to give to other people." — Kass Thomas About Kass Thomas: Kass Thomas is a successful business entrepreneur, motivational speaker and empowerment coach.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Venus Castleberg discuss: Giving and receiving to your business. The relationship between your business and your life. Finding the right relationships in your life and business. Regular rewards as momentum for creating the life you want to live. Key Takeaways: If you are considering a career change, first write down and understand what you want your life to be like. Whatever brings you joy doesn't have to be big. It starts with the little things that bring you happiness and joy. Choose relationships (business or personal) who make you feel better when you leave their presence. Give yourself 1 hour per day, and 1 day per week to do something that recharges you. — Venus Castleberg Connect with Venus Castleberg: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adventureswithvenus/ (https://www.instagram.com/adventureswithvenus/) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/venuscastleberg (https://www.facebook.com/venuscastleberg) Website: https://venuscastleberg.com/ (https://venuscastleberg.com/) Book: https://venuscastleberg.com/here-forever/ (https://venuscastleberg.com/here-forever/) Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-naked/id1540604996 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-naked/id1540604996) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClDEDcWlKQ-8puDA8wo91JA (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClDEDcWlKQ-8puDA8wo91JA) Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cf_venus_castleberg (https://linktr.ee/cf_venus_castleberg) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Venus Castleberg discuss: Living with gratitude for everything, even the trials and the struggles. Asking for what you want. Trying without fear of failure to develop your why. Getting out of our own way. Key Takeaways: Nobody wants to think they are broken, nobody wants to think they need help. Judging kills, it stops what is possible, and it stops creation and growth. Everything you are looking for is already within you, if you just look. You choose what you want to create based on the thought patterns and beliefs in your brain. "What and why comes from living your life. It's not that you necessarily know everything that you want upfront, you start to discover that as you're living your life." — Venus Castleberg Connect with Venus Castleberg: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adventureswithvenus/ (https://www.instagram.com/adventureswithvenus/) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/venuscastleberg (https://www.facebook.com/venuscastleberg) Website: https://venuscastleberg.com/ (https://venuscastleberg.com/) Book: https://venuscastleberg.com/here-forever/ (https://venuscastleberg.com/here-forever/) Show: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-naked/id1540604996 (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/being-naked/id1540604996) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClDEDcWlKQ-8puDA8wo91JA (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClDEDcWlKQ-8puDA8wo91JA) Linktree: https://linktr.ee/cf_venus_castleberg (https://linktr.ee/cf_venus_castleberg) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Brendon Watt discuss: Choosing what is true to you. Finding awareness of your thoughts and their correlation to your life. Brendon's journey in discovering and teaching. Keep creating and keep wondering. Key Takeaways: Everything you are today is a result of the choices that you made in your past. Things don't happen to you, you always have a choice. Add kindness to your life, not just toward others, but also toward yourself. Don't try to figure out your whole future. Be present in your life and enjoy it. "We have choice. We can either be unhappy and negative and judge ourselves, or we can choose to actually have more joy in our lives and create a different world, create a different space where we can actually thrive, and move forward to something we'll all be a lot more proud of." — Brendon Watt Connect with Brendon Watt: Website: https://www.brendonwatt.com/ (https://www.brendonwatt.com/) & https://www.accessconsciousness.com/ (https://www.accessconsciousness.com/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqUIwd0enUwbkFgE0yUkQEg (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqUIwd0enUwbkFgE0yUkQEg) SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/brendonwatt (https://soundcloud.com/brendonwatt) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/accessbrendonwatt/ (https://www.instagram.com/accessbrendonwatt/) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brendonwattcfmw/ (https://www.facebook.com/brendonwattcfmw/) Books: An Anonymous Guide to Parenting: https://www.brendonwatt.com/anonymous-guide (https://www.brendonwatt.com/anonymous-guide) Relationship.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Brendon Watt discuss: How Brendon was able to change his own life. Why New Year's Resolutions don't tend to work for most people. Understanding what is yours and what is not yours. Honestly looking at yourself and the choices you make. Key Takeaways: Get present with yourself. Understand what you are choosing at every moment. Question, question, question with everything. Don't just go to judgment, ask what is possible. You cannot change anything that is not yours. Your point of view is what is creating your reality. "As soon as you acknowledge something, you can change it...You are the driver of your life." — Brendon Watt Connect with Brendon Watt: Website: https://www.brendonwatt.com/ (https://www.brendonwatt.com/) & https://www.accessconsciousness.com/ (https://www.accessconsciousness.com/) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqUIwd0enUwbkFgE0yUkQEg (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqUIwd0enUwbkFgE0yUkQEg) SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/brendonwatt (https://soundcloud.com/brendonwatt) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/accessbrendonwatt/ (https://www.instagram.com/accessbrendonwatt/) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/brendonwattcfmw/ (https://www.facebook.com/brendonwattcfmw/) Books: An Anonymous Guide to Parenting: https://www.brendonwatt.com/anonymous-guide (https://www.brendonwatt.com/anonymous-guide) Relationship.

In this episode, Christina Martini, Octavian Pantis, and Captain Emil Dobrovolschi discuss: Managing risk and dealing with uncertainty. What we can learn from aviation when things don't go as planned. Learning from industry specific websites, not just social media. Wrestling with ethical issues. Key Takeaways: Don't postpone things, they only gather and the weight gets too heavy and overwhelming. When something goes wrong, it is never the fault of just one thing. There are always multiple factors. Do the right thing, at the right moment. Don't do everything at the last moment, even if you can usually accomplish it. The right thing is always the right thing to do, even when it is difficult. "If you can do it today, do it today. Don't leave it until the last minute." — Octavian Pantis Connect with Octavian Pantis: Website: https://octavianpantis.com/ (https://octavianpantis.com/) Book: https://darkcockpitbook.com/ (https://darkcockpitbook.com/) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/octavianpantis/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/octavianpantis/) Twitter: https://twitter.com/OctavianPantis (https://twitter.com/OctavianPantis) Connect with Captain Emil Dobrovolschi: Book: https://darkcockpitbook.com/ (https://darkcockpitbook.com/) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emil-g-dobrovolschi-a61b2b105/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/emil-g-dobrovolschi-a61b2b105/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( @TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini, Octavian Pantis, and Captain Emil Dobrovolschi discuss: How Emil and Octavian's backgrounds prepared them for and translate into a career focused on writing about and consulting on leadership. The bedrock of communication. Utilizing technology properly for the best outcome. Moving from copilot to captain. Key Takeaways: In times of change, people are looking for ideas and inspiration. As a professional, try to be prepared all the time, for every flight, not just for the exam. Just because we have the technology to do so, we should not try to be in 2, 3, or even 4 places at once. If you want your flight to be good, you need your crew to be with you - the same thing in business. If you want your product or service to be good, you need your team to be with you. "If you want to be a communicator, you need to be present in that conversation, whether it's on the phone or live and in person, whether you're on the sending side or on the receiving side." — Captain Emil Dobrovolschi Connect with Octavian Pantis: Website: https://octavianpantis.com/ (https://octavianpantis.com/) Book: https://darkcockpitbook.com/ (https://darkcockpitbook.com/) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/octavianpantis/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/octavianpantis/) Twitter: https://twitter.com/OctavianPantis (https://twitter.com/OctavianPantis) Connect with Captain Emil Dobrovolschi: Book: https://darkcockpitbook.com/ (https://darkcockpitbook.com/) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/emil-g-dobrovolschi-a61b2b105/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/emil-g-dobrovolschi-a61b2b105/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( @TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Amii Barnard-Bahn discuss: How Amii's Promotability Index can help you in your workplace as well as individually. The five key elements of promotability (and what you can do at any stage of your career). Creating a culture of consistent promotability within your company. The importance of mentors and allyship. Key Takeaways: There is a way to give feedback that is effective, and where people can hear you. Good presentation skills can be learned by anyone, you just have to practice. It is important to invest in relationships and understand how you are perceived and your impact on those in your team and in the leadership. If you don't have a good boss that is giving you the feedback you need, you can try and get it from the other people.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Pat Milhizer discuss: Hardball questions and crisis communication. Navigating tricky waters with customers and the media. Developing relationships with reporters and other news outlets. Repurposing social media for other opportunities. Key Takeaways: You should take a holistic approach to everything, especially a crisis, to not just cope with the crisis, but also to find clarity and answers. Having a personal approach, where you're not being too combative, can often work best when working with reporters. You make your own luck - pick the right spot and be ready for any opportunity to get in front of the public. Never say (or write) something to a reporter that you wouldn't want to see on the front page of the newspaper. "If you want good press, you've got to make time for your PR reps." — Pat Milhizer Connect with Pat Milhizer: Twitter: https://twitter.com/patmilhizer?lang=en (https://twitter.com/patmilhizer?lang=en) Website: https://www.milhizerpublicrelations.com/ (https://www.milhizerpublicrelations.com/) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/pat-milhizer/ (https://www.linkedin.com/in/pat-milhizer/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Pat Milhizer discuss: The art of media relations. Controlling the elements of the pitch to get the story that you want. The relationship between risk and control. The crucial role of preparation in media relations. Key Takeaways: Your experience is your strength. Those things that you have seen and experienced as you grow in your professional career are what give you strength now. The only people who control the media are those who work in the media. You have news the audience wants. The audience wants to hear good things. Skipping prep can spark regret. It is worth the 30 minute practice to keep the positive event positive.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Steve Vincze discuss: Understanding what is important to you down in your core. The fear of the unknown and its relationship to compliance. The goal of risk assessments and managing the good, the bad, and the indifferent thoughtfully. Leading with principles and values. Key Takeaways: Knowledge is power. If you know where the risks are and have navigated the path, you can be aggressive in your forward momentum. It's all about inspiring and motivating people to be something to be a part of something greater than just their own self interest We can all be better. By recognizing what is broken, we can only move forward and grow. Be selfless. Care about those around you. Compliance isn't about you being compliant, it's about what your actions do to affect others. "It's about inspiring and motivating others for a cause that's greater than yourself." — Steve Vincze Connect with Steve Vincze: Website: https://trestlecompliance.com/ (trestlecompliance.com) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevevincze/ (linkedin.com/in/stevevincze) Email: svincze@trestlecompliance.com Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Steve Vincze discuss: Building bridges between law, business, science, medicine, and government. Steve's journey through COVID and how it has changed his perspective on business and humanity. Refreshing how we look at compliance today. What to do now with your business's compliance. Key Takeaways: Compliance isn't a negative thing. It enables you to navigate risks with confidence and allow your business to succeed. As businesses, we must adjust and take the new technology usage into account, take a plan of action, and execute on that plan. The new generation of leaders are wanting to be proactive and take steps to comply as compared to 20 years ago. The sooner you act, the sooner you nip the problem in the bud. "Take the assessment, know where you are as a baseline so you can measure against it. Once you have that assessment, develop an implementation plan that scales up against those risks that are commensurate with your business. Then execute against that plan." — Steve Vincze Connect with Steve Vincze: Website: https://trestlecompliance.com/ (trestlecompliance.com) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/stevevincze/ (linkedin.com/in/stevevincze) Email: svincze@trestlecompliance.com Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Leo Bottary discuss: The ladder of inference. Being open to other people's ideas and opinions in any group or team. The power of me, the power of we, and the relationship between the two. Seeing teammates as fellow human beings and creating a sense of belonging. Key Takeaways: You can't be a team unless you bridge the gap from me to we. We are capable of doing so much more when we work together. In any team, you matter because nobody but you can bring what you bring to the table. We are not just fellow employees, or teammates. But rather, we are fellow human beings. "When we look at assessments, not only for ourselves, but when we start sharing our results with other people and start looking at theirs, we can start appreciating people's differences as real gifts. They are gifts to the team, that they see the world differently, that they have different talents, that they have different ways of contributing to the team. Because we need one another." — Leo Bottary Connect with Leo Bottary: Website: https://leobottary.com/ (leobottary.com) Show: https://leobottary.com/subscribe-to-podcast/ (leobottary.com/subscribe-to-podcast) YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/leobottary (youtube.com/user/leobottary) Twitter: https://twitter.com/leobottary (twitter.com/leobottary) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leobottary (facebook.com/leobottary) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leobottary/ (linkedin.com/in/leobottary) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leobottary/ (instagram.com/leobottary) Books: Peernovation: https://leobottary.com/peernovation/ (leobottary.com/peernovation) What Anyone Can Do: https://leobottary.com/what-anyone-can-do/ (leobottary.com/what-anyone-can-do) The Power of Peers: https://leobottary.com/the-power-of-peers/ (leobottary.com/the-power-of-peers) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Yonason Goldson discuss: The crisis of ethics facing the world today. Treating others fairly without unreasonable expectations. The onset of COVID and how it has added to Yonason’s message personally and professionally. Supporting and lifting one another through struggles and life. Earning trust before demanding trust. Key Takeaways: When it comes to ethics, the first place to start is with ourselves. There have to be consequences and uncomfortable conversations when performance does not meet standards, however, there should be incentives for good behavior, not just punishment for bad behavior. We are all having different challenges - we need to find ways that we can lift and support one another. Let others speak, hear their points of view, and ideas will often emerge from unlikely sources or people who would not have been heard otherwise. "If employers would say to their employees, ‘Listen, we understand this is difficult. We want to support you as much as possible. We need you to take more responsibility for yourselves. And we're going to trust you to do that until we have a reason not to.’ Well, when you speak to people that way, it tends to encourage them to hold themselves more accountable." — Yonason Goldson About Yonason Goldson: Yonason Goldson is director of Ethical Imperatives, LLC, teaching leaders how good ethics is good business and the benefits of intellectual diversity. He’s a keynote speaker, TEDx presenter, and community rabbi, as well as a repentant hitchhiker, recovered circumnavigator, former newspaper columnist, and retired high school teacher in St. Louis. He’s authored hundreds of articles applying ancient wisdom to the challenges of the modern world, and five books including “Fix Your Broken Windows: a 12-step program for promoting ethical affluence” and “Proverbial Beauty: secrets for success and happiness from the wisdom of the ages.” Connect with Yonason Goldson: Website: https://www.yonasongoldson.com/ (YonasonGoldson.com) Books: http://yonasongoldson.com/books (YonasonGoldson.com/Books) - Grappling with the Gray and More!

In this episode, Christina Martini and Yonason Goldson discuss: Yonason’s journey to keynote speaking, including teaching, hitchhiking, and living in Israel. Understanding both sides of an argument or a position to better understand your position. The value in giving and receiving and creating a culture of trust. The mindset of ethical decision making. Key Takeaways: You will hear more if you listen without the intent to reply. You will learn more about them and about yourself. The more we understand people, the more we understand our place in the world. It is fashionable to seek the truth, but it is not fashionable to find the truth. No culture can thrive, or even survive, without trust. Compliance is the starting point. It's not the endpoint. Compliance is often the enemy of ethics. "The ability to understand where someone else is coming from, to see an issue from their side, makes it much easier to actually have some kind of constructive disagreement, which leads to finding common ground, which leads to developing solutions, and then ultimately leads to working together and creating a sense of community even when we may see issues differently." — Yonason Goldson About Yonason Goldson: Yonason Goldson is director of Ethical Imperatives, LLC, teaching leaders how good ethics is good business and the benefits of intellectual diversity.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Leslie Zane discuss: The Brand Connectome. Cracking the code on brand growth. Common misconceptions and misperceptions about branding. Differences between new brands and established brands. Key Takeaways: A Brand Connectome goes beyond what the company puts out, and goes into what we, as consumers, put into the brand individually. Perceptions drive everything, not price or differentiation. Your brand is not stuck where it is. Brands are dynamic and resilient when managed properly. Established brands can grow quickly and with new waves of growth as they get rid of old, negative associations. "If you want to grow your brand in the marketplace, you first have to grow your brand in the subconscious." — Leslie Zane Connect with Leslie Zane: Website: https://lesliezane.com/ (lesliezane.com) & https://triggers.com/ (triggers.com) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lesliepicotzane/ (linkedin.com/in/lesliepicotzane) Twitter: https://twitter.com/Leslie_Zane (twitter.com/Leslie_Zane) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leslie.zane.9 (facebook.com/leslie.zane.9) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( @TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Leslie Zane discuss: Leslie’s earlier career and how she learned to implement her own vision and philosophy of how brands should be marketing themselves. How Leslie defines a brand and how a brand is its most effective. The beginning and growth of Leslie’s company, Triggers. Making your brand the dominant, instinctive choice to consumers. Key Takeaways: A brand is a collection of associations, both positive and negative, in our memories and our subconscious. There is more to branding than what you see in research. There are powerful codes and queues that ignite our memory and draw a connection out of us. You can use these ideas that already exist to become a way to leverage your brand growth. Everything is about brand and has the potential to be thought about as a brand. "Brands exist in the minds of consumers, and that is really how we need to be thinking of them." — Leslie Zane Connect with Leslie Zane: Website: https://lesliezane.com/ (lesliezane.com) & https://triggers.com/ (triggers.com) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lesliepicotzane/ (linkedin.com/in/lesliepicotzane) Twitter: https://twitter.com/Leslie_Zane (twitter.com/Leslie_Zane) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/leslie.zane.9 (facebook.com/leslie.zane.9) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Rhiannon Rees discuss: Teaching and working with people from all walks of life. Working on yourself to find freedom in all other aspects of life. Change coming from adversity. Fostering goodness every single day. Key Takeaways: Just because you don’t believe, doesn’t mean it isn’t real. Keep your mind open to more possibilities than you know now. Self-worth equals net worth. We are creatures of habit - it is when life is not good that we are forced to do something about the things that were simmering under the surface and we were ignoring before. Life is about enjoying this moment and this day as nobody knows what is on the horizon. "Your life is determined by the quality of the questions that you ask yourself, and the way that you live your life is determined by what you will allow yourself to receive, based on what you think you deserve." — Rhiannon Rees Connect with Rhiannon Rees: Website: https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/ (ConsciousCoaching.Coach) Twitter: https://twitter.com/inspirationalli?fbclid=IwAR0_sXNI5wTsBY0302eJv4pylgvqJStP0ptdmFK-ugYwb9DQihlL7bX9iYY (@Inspirationalli) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CCC.Rhiannon.Rees/ (Conscious Coaching Collective - Rhiannon Rees) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rhiannonreescoach/?fbclid=IwAR0_sXNI5wTsBY0302eJv4pylgvqJStP0ptdmFK-ugYwb9DQihlL7bX9iYY (@rhiannonreescoach) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cccrhiannonrees/ (Rhiannon Rees) Book: https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/product/how-to-climb-mount-everest-in-sandals/ (How to Climb Mount Everest in Sandals) & https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/product/ebook-life-is-a-choice-and-the-choice-is-yours/ (Life is a Choice and the Choice is Yours) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( )https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor (@TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( )http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ (www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( )https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini (Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( )https://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ (Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Rhiannon Rees discuss: Rhiannon’s inspirational story from losing everything in a short period of time to a wildly successful coaching career. Getting out of your own way to find ways to help others. The fundamental aspect of intuition in every aspect of our lives. Energy, consciousness, and quantum physics. Key Takeaways: When you start to make bad decisions, that's when you need to stop and reassess. There’s no such thing as a problem - problems are illusions, we just don’t have the skillset to solve it yet. We are emotional beings having a physical experience - words are only 7% of communication, the other 93% happens in tone, gestures, and breathing Absolutely everything is energy first and you can't destroy or create energy - energy is a constant. "it's about finding what makes people tick and unlocking the shackles that bind them mentally and emotionally. And when you do, they can achieve anything." — Rhiannon Rees Connect with Rhiannon Rees: Website: https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/ (ConsciousCoaching.Coach) Twitter: https://twitter.com/inspirationalli?fbclid=IwAR0_sXNI5wTsBY0302eJv4pylgvqJStP0ptdmFK-ugYwb9DQihlL7bX9iYY (@Inspirationalli) Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CCC.Rhiannon.Rees/ (Conscious Coaching Collective - Rhiannon Rees) Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/rhiannonreescoach/?fbclid=IwAR0_sXNI5wTsBY0302eJv4pylgvqJStP0ptdmFK-ugYwb9DQihlL7bX9iYY (@rhiannonreescoach) LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cccrhiannonrees/ (Rhiannon Rees) Book: https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/product/how-to-climb-mount-everest-in-sandals/ (How to Climb Mount Everest in Sandals) & https://www.consciouscoaching.coach/product/ebook-life-is-a-choice-and-the-choice-is-yours/ (Life is a Choice and the Choice is Yours) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor ( @TinaMartini10) Website:http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/ ( www.paradigmshiftshow.com) LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini ( Christina Martini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byhttps://www.turnkeypodcast.com/ ( Turnkey Podcast Productions.)

In this episode, Christina Martini and Simone MIlasas discuss: Trusting in yourself and what you know. Knowing where you are heading without allowing others to stop you. How COVID has allowed us all to look at our lives and determine what we really want. Creating what you can, notwithstanding outside limitations. Key Takeaways: What if the purpose of life was to have fun? What brings you joy today? Judgment is not real and it never creates something greater. It only ever creates separation and creates something less than. You have to make the choice to change whatever it is in your life that you want to change. Don’t play games and stop lying to yourself. Be free, even if it means you are not right. "The change that people realize they can have and be is so rewarding." — Simone Milasas Connect with Simone Milasas: Website: AccessJoyofBusiness.com (http://accessjoyofbusiness.com/) Twitter: @accessConscious (https://twitter.com/accessConscious) Facebook: Access Consciousness (https://www.facebook.com/accessconsciousness) Book: Relationship.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Simone Milasas discuss: Simone’s professional and personal journey to where she is today with Access Consciousness. Deciphering your thoughts, feelings, and emotions from those that are not yours. Searching for the questions, not the answers. Key Takeaways: If your life is not getting better and better, you get to change something. You get to choose something different. You know so much more than what you have been willing to acknowledge. If you come out of judgment, what can you create? When you go into question, then more can show up. Choose what makes you happy and your life will be much easier. "The world has changed, and it's not going back to what it was.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Megan Belcher discuss: Investing in relationships with the C-Suite and the Board. Navigating the disruption of COVID-19. Relationships with outside counsel. Making a difference now with the privilege you have. Key Takeaways: It is critical to approach working through issues by looking at the lens that you know each of your individual humans will bring to the table. Successful relationships don’t have to be complicated, but they do take hard work. Meet your commitments, provide exceptional legal services, and pitch in during difficult times to find creative solutions. Mistakes will happen, lawyers are not robots, but accept accountability when they do happen. Think about how you can be reaching out to support and help others. "Don't underestimate the potential place of privilege that you might come from, and think about how you can extend that privilege to others right now, during a pretty dynamic time for our country and really around the world." — Megan Belcher Connect with Megan Belcher: Email: MBelcher@Scoular.com (mailto:MBelcher@Scoular.com) LinkedIn: Megan Belcher (https://www.linkedin.com/in/meganbelcher2/) Website: Scoular.com (https://www.scoular.com/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:@TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website:www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn:Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byTurnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Megan Belcher discuss: Megan’s practice when she was in BigLaw and her journey to the General Counsel’s office. How the General Counsel’s role has evolved during this COVID-19 pandemic. Creating a fulfilling, rewarding career, while staying on a positive, forward-moving trajectory. Key Takeaways: If you are willing to make the investment, you can achieve your dreams. Growth is difficult and uncomfortable, but that is where your best career opportunities and learning experiences will come from. Thriving as a general counsel requires a lot of agility, personal growth, stretching yourself and hard work, which will be rewarding for your career long term. Self-awareness and authenticity are key to a successful career. "Trust, especially in the lawyer-client relationship, is essential. And, even more importantly, when you're in-house and looking to maximize your impact with the smallest amount of resources possible, it’s so critically important because that trust enables you to move with significantly more speed and to leverage your resources in the best way possible." — Megan Belcher Connect with Megan Belcher: Email: MBelcher@Scoular.com (mailto:MBelcher@Scoular.com) LinkedIn: Megan Belcher (https://www.linkedin.com/in/meganbelcher2/) Website: Scoular.com (https://www.scoular.com/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:@TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website:www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn:Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Debbie Vyskocil discuss: The impact of personal stress on your team. Moving past the stigma of asking for help. High-performance coaching of the brain. Scheduling self-care or tying it to something that is already a habit. Key Takeaways: It’s a matter of being happy and better, not just being fine. Asking for help to get there is going to make things so much better. Resiliency is one of the greatest strengths that a person can have. The way we talk to ourselves is incredibly important. You would never talk to a family member or business partner in the same way you talk to yourself. Finding the tools that work best for you and turning those into habits will help get your brain to an optimal place and be able to bounce back to that place when things get stressful. "Duke University just recently came out with some data showing that just silence develops new cells in your hippocampus...They're showing that the brain functions better when you just take a couple of minutes of silence in the middle of your day. But how many of us do that?" — Debbie Vyskocil About Debbie Vyskocil: Debbie Vyskocil leverages her expertise in neuroscience to coach audiences and clients to reach peak levels of achievement.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Debbie Vyskocil discuss: How to help heal ourselves with our minds. What biofeedback is and how the data collected enables you to take your performance to your highest level. Debbie’s switch from engineering to coaching with an expertise that is based in neuroscience. Stress and resilience and our relationship with sleep. Key Takeaways: It is about repetitive learning, the more you fire what you want to, your brain will start to hardwire itself that way. A high performing brain is about a brain that is balanced. You have control. Having your head in the right space is key in everyday life as well as in high stress situations. Sleep is critical for your well being in every aspect of your life. 7-9 hours of sleep for an adult is key to function. "Our brain cleans all the extra gunk out of it during the night. All those extra residual things that are happening in our brain that we don't need are cleaned out at night. We need to be able to have that sleep time just to be able to get rid of that." — Debbie Vyskocil About Debbie Vyskocil: Debbie Vyskocil leverages her expertise in neuroscience to coach audiences and clients to reach peak levels of achievement.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Simon Townsend discuss: Security issues that working from home presents to organizations. Security tips for work from home users. Developing a home setup for the best work environment for long term sustainability. Disaster recovery and what that looks like for the future. Key Takeaways: Ransomware has not gone away and, in 2020, there is an increase in ransomware in part due to the vulnerability of an individual working away from the unsecured networks of an office environment. Make sure you are running the latest, most recently updated version of the technology products you are using. Having one day that is a no video conference call day will make your teams more productive and focused during that time. We don’t know yet how quickly we will be returning to work, whether we will be returning to work, or what will be coming in the future with the pandemic. With the uncertainty, a mobile work strategy is required. "This pandemic is going to teach us is that people do not need to go to work to get work done. And going to work, while will have some benefits, the office that you go to might just be one of the places in the future that you go to get your work done. Any solution from this point forward should really look at how it can accommodate mobile working and deliver the best security, the best performance, and the best way of allowing our employees to continue to be productive regardless of where they are." — Simon Townsend Connect with Simon Townsend: Twitter: @Simon_Townsend (https://twitter.com/simon_townsend?lang=en) Website: igel.com (https://www.igel.com/) LinkedIn: Simon Townsend (https://www.linkedin.com/in/townsendsimon/) Watch a video from Vicki Norris with a number of tips and tricks for all around working from home and Enter NOW to win a complete Home Workspace Makeover with IGEL’s Workspace Coolspace here: (https://www.igel.com/workspacecoolplace/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter:@TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website:www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn:Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production byTurnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Simon Townsend discuss: How Simon combined his degrees in Technology and Marketing to great success. How technology is driving business growth. The effect of COVID-19 on working from home and the future of the working environment. Home working and workforce culture. Key Takeaways: In many parts of the world, there has to be a mindset shift to moving to a work at home model. As work at home has moved from a very temporary measure, there is a shift to a more long-term work from home strategy as the current situation continues and thoughts to future situations arise. Creativity is different in person than it is on a Zoom or other video call. Find ways to give the person you are talking to all of your attention rather than sitting in front of your emails and monitors. "Don’t feel that because you are working from home that everything has to be done in front of a laptop or a PC and on a Zoom call. There are still other ways in which we can communicate." — Simon Townsend Connect with Simon Townsend: Twitter: @Simon_Townsend (https://twitter.com/simon_townsend?lang=en) Website: igel.com (https://www.igel.com/) LinkedIn: Simon Townsend (https://www.linkedin.com/in/townsendsimon/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter: @TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website: www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn: Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Sonya Sigler discuss: What makes a great leader and what makes great leadership manifest. Authenticity and what it means to be authentic. Unique challenges as a result of the current pandemic environment. Remembering the humanity of your employees first. Key Takeaways: Hold on to those things that are your stress relievers and keep them active in your life. You don’t have to give up the aspects of your life that you care about just because you are going up the professional ladder. If you don’t live true to yourself, what are you telling yourself and telling others? Crisis provides an opportunity to shine, to make changes, to make better, and to show good leadership skills. If we get the same results, how we get there shouldn’t matter. We have an opportunity to redefine normal going forward. "Finding your own style, and embracing it, especially as you take on a leadership role and more responsibility, is important." — Sonya Sigler Connect with Sonya Sigler: Twitter: @sonyasigler (https://twitter.com/sonyasigler) Facebook: Worthwhile Coaching (https://www.facebook.com/worthwhilecoaching/) Website: SonyaSigler.com (https://sonyasigler.com/) Email: Sonya@SonyaSigler.com (mailto:Sonya@SonyaSigler.com) Blog: (http://www.iampractigal.com/) Free Book: Welcome to the Next Level - 3 Secrets to Become Unstuck, Take Action, and Rise Higher in Your Career (https://sonyasigler.com/book/) Instagram: @sonyasigler (https://www.instagram.com/sonyasigler/) LinkedIn: Sonya Sigler (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonyasigler/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter: @TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website: www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn: Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Sonya Sigler discuss: Sonya’s journey to becoming a lawyer and what she learned and accomplished along the way. Her work with mentoring and empowering women. The importance of having important role models. The need to be authentic, have an open mind and mentality of inclusivity. Key Takeaways: Sometimes you get to where you are meant to go by knowing what not to do. There is a time and place for formal mentoring, but sometimes the most valuable mentorship can happen more organically. Don’t dismiss men as role models or mentors. Reach out to someone you admire, let them know why you admire them, and ask them questions, you might just form a mentoring relationship that way. "We're all in this together and we have to support each other. You can't just succeed as a woman leader just by yourself or with the help of other women; it's going to involve men and women. Cultivating that support wherever it is, from a man, or a woman, or a well rounded group of people, is really important to keep in mind." — Sonya Sigler Connect with Sonya Sigler: Twitter: @sonyasigler (https://twitter.com/sonyasigler) Facebook: Worthwhile Coaching (https://www.facebook.com/worthwhilecoaching/) Website: SonyaSigler.com (https://sonyasigler.com/) Email: Sonya@SonyaSigler.com (mailto:Sonya@SonyaSigler.com) Blog: (http://www.iampractigal.com/) Free Book: Welcome to the Next Level - 3 Secrets to Become Unstuck, TAke Action, and Rise Higher in Your Career (https://sonyasigler.com/book/) Instagram: @sonyasigler (https://www.instagram.com/sonyasigler/) LinkedIn: Sonya Sigler (https://www.linkedin.com/in/sonyasigler/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter: @TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website: www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn: Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Erin Wilson discuss: Relationships and interactions with C-Suite and the board. The power of clear, intentional communication. The similarities between being a GC and being the lead singer in a rock band. Working with outside counsel for an alignment of goals. Key Takeaways: You have to recognize the communication styles of those you work with and know your audience. There will be times you have to say “I don’t know, but I will find out for you.” There are nuances to what different outside counsels can offer. Be willing to shop around to find the right fit for your company and needs. Be as forthright as you can, but be a human being. "There are times you must trust your gut - you’ve got to go with the internal. If something’s telling you it’s not right, look into it. Keep checking." — Erin Wilson Connect with Erin Wilson: Email: erin.wilson@cudirect.com (mailto:erin.wilson@cudirect.com) LinkedIn: Erin Wilson (https://www.linkedin.com/in/erin-wilson-9266333/) Professional Bio: Erin Wilson (https://www.cudirect.com/team/erin-wilson/) Music Album: Kungle Bungle (https://erinwilson.hearnow.com/) Connect with Christina Martini: Twitter: @TinaMartini10 (https://twitter.com/TinaMartini10?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor) Website: www.paradigmshiftshow.com (http://www.paradigmshiftshow.com/) LinkedIn: Christina Martini (https://www.linkedin.com/in/christinamartini) Email: christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com (mailto:christinamartini.paradigmshift@gmail.com) Show notes by Podcastologist: Chelsea Taylor-Sturkie Audio production by Turnkey Podcast Productions.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Erin Wilson discuss: Erin’s professional journey to her current role as in-house general counsel. A day in the life of Erin as GC. The art of time-management and refining your approach to tasks. The rewards and challenges of being general counsel. Key Takeaways: Even when the days are packed and busy, working with great people can make everything that needs to happen. Having a mentor can help to give you direction and guidance along your path. GC can help to streamline aspects of the business to minimize risks if you allow them to do so. Communication is key - get to know those you work with and be personable with them. If they are scared to reach out to you, you cannot do your job effectively.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Amii Barnard-Bahn discuss: Becoming aware and creating coping strategies of your personal derailers. Assessing your career in a time of uncertainty and what to focus on during your self-assessments. Pivoting, developing, and growing through the journey to creating the life you love.

Luck is preparation meeting opportunity. Now is the time to prepare. "I would recommend to everyone, periodically in your career, pause, step back, and take a 50,000 foot view of where you have been, where you are going, what you have learned, and what patterns begin to emerge around the decisions you’ve made, both good and bad.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Amii Barnard-Bahn discuss: The impact of COVID-19 and how it is affecting individuals and businesses and the roles leaders play at this critical juncture. The transitions, fluctuations, and shifts that are happening in the current environment for employees and leaders. What great leadership looks like to external stakeholders. Key Takeaways: Have a decision-making model that is focused on the long term. Don’t allow fear to control the decision-making process. Now, more than ever, it is important to check in with your employees and make sure that nobody is falling into a void and is still understanding their purpose and feeling safe. Think about sustainability of success, not just short term survival. Don’t take bad short cuts that could hurt your business later.

"It's easier to change the world with money...Ideas are out there...the trick is in the execution. It's not always the best technology that works…Be persistent." Julie Lenzer on Green Connections Radio podcast Having a great idea for a new technology or new business model that you think can change the world is terrific. But it will only make that change if it succeeds in the marketplace, which is very tough. The success stories we hear about in the media make it sound easier than it is. We do not hear about the thousands of others that do not thrive – but those can offer lessons too. Listen to Julie Lenzer, Chief Innovation Officer at the University of Maryland and serial tech entrepreneur, tell Green Connections Radio podcast host Joan Michelson what it really takes to be a successful entrepreneur and where to find those resources, including funding. You'll hear (take notes!): Why personality makes a difference in entrepreneurship and how to manage yours. What the UMD Conscious Venture Lab – or “Do Good Institute” – is and how it could help you. How to find or build the ecosystem your business needs to succeed – especially as a woman entrepreneur with a purpose-driven business. About UMD’s all-female hackathons that attracted 900 students from K-12 to college, the largest in the U.S. Insightful career advice too … and much more! Read my Forbes blogs on my interview with Julie too. “Don’t be shy about…your accomplishments. Humility will only get you so far and there’s a way to humble brag.

In this episode, Christina Martini and Dave Kenney discuss: Dave’s career journey and his neuroscience and psychology studies. The importance of brain health – not just mental health - on your well-being and leadership success. The impacts of stress, anxiety, and depression on brain health and what leaders need to know about brain health. Key Takeaways: You have to have a brain first approach to your health in all respects, including food, sleep, and physical activity. While some stress may be productive, there is a point where it becomes counterproductive. Once sleep is lost, it cannot be regained. You can always have a younger brain if you commit to it.
