I reconnected with Evan Worsley this spring, when I dropped him a note on LinkedIn, in congratulations of 9 years in business and what I'd seen as steady growth in the numbers of Conduct All Electric trucks around the region.  Turns out, I had helped him register his LLC and obtain his EIN at the Small Business Development Center those 9 years before, and though the name was familiar, it was easy to remember Evan once we sat down over whiskey in the podcast studio. From humble beginnings, out of his garage and with half a paycheck from his previous employer in the bank, Evan took every small job he could land, and in a year and a half, hired another electrician and some admin support and moved up to a storage unit, and hired more and moved up to a larger storage unit, and today he owns his own real estate and employs a team of about 45.  Steady growth throughout, and Evan has sat in every seat in the business over time.  Evan's journey is one of building a loyal team, developing consistent processes, and investing in his own leadership and team skills along the way.  He's a good ol' boy type, and an easy conversation, so please join me in getting to know Evan Worsley, President and Founder of Conduct All Electric, Inc.  The LoCo Experience Podcast is sponsored by: Purpose Driven Wealth Thrivent: Learn more

Conducting a fascinating exploration into the origin of The Beatles and the role of "dumb luck" in history, McKay demonstrates the power of expectations. Along the way, he reveals how the gap between expectation and reality is a key source of our happiness and offers a framework for harnessing this power to shape a better future.Our host goes on to explain that happiness depends less on our circumstances and more on their alignment with our expectations. He illustrates this with The Beatles' story and fascinating historical examples of "dumb luck," such as a change of wind saving George Washington's army. Citing that the core solution is to actively shape our reality by setting powerful expectations, McKay reveals how visualizing our "best possible self" creates new neural pathways in the brain, making success more likely. And referencing studies on rats and mentally-practicing basketball players, he shows that what we truly expect, we tend to create.Main Themes:Our level of happiness is determined by the gap between our expectations and reality.Random chance and "dumb luck" play a significant role in life's outcomes, so we must be flexible.What we expect, we unconsciously work to create; our expectations directly influence our actions and results.We can consciously harness the power of expectation by vividly imagining and defining our "best possible self."Visualizing success creates neural pathways that can make achieving goals more likely than physical practice alone.Setting high expectations for yourself and others is one of the most powerful catalysts for growth.Top 10 Quotes:"Happiness is less about the reality of life and more about the alignment or misalignment between what we anticipate and what we encounter.""Dumb luck is a bigger part of our life than we think.""When we expect something, we change our behavior, even if we're not consciously aware of those changes.""When you imagine yourself doing something, you create a neural pathway.""In your mind, you never miss a shot. This is the power of expectation.""The ‘future you' is found in a belief window full of expectations.""If you don't have an expectation, a destination, you really have no reason to make plans.""Whatever you can do or dream you can do, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.""There is no passion to be found in playing small, in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.""You and I were not put here on this earth to just get by or tread in the waters of unfulfilled thoughts or lack of expectations."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

In the first half of our conversation with Adam Malone, founder of The Tenacious Operator, we explore the Power of Trust — how it drives leadership, strengthens teams, and turns potential project failure into growth. From large-scale ERP rollouts to everyday collaboration, Adam shows that the Power of Trust is what truly separates good teams from great ones. Why the Power of Trust Matters Adam begins with a story familiar to many project leaders: a major ERP implementation where everything looked perfect on paper. All dashboards were green, metrics were solid, and executives were confident. Yet almost overnight, the project unraveled. The root cause? A loss of trust. Team members stayed silent about risks. Operations fixed issues without communicating them. The requirements were “complete,” but in reality, they were incomplete. When trust fails, clarity disappears — and even the best teams lose momentum. When everyone claims “we're on track,” but no one feels safe to speak up, the Power of Trust has already broken down. The Power of Trust in Psychological Safety One of the key insights Adam shares is how psychological safety amplifies the Power of Trust. Proper safety allows people to say, “I'm concerned,” or “This might fail,” without fear of backlash. He recommends creating space for negative feedback through deliberate questions: “How could this project fail?” “What are we not seeing yet?” Conducting a reverse post-mortem helps uncover weak points before they become disasters. This proactive honesty fuels progress and strengthens the Power of Trust across the entire team. Seeing Work Clearly: The Power of Trust in Transparency Drawing from Toyota's famous Gemba concept — “go to the actual place” — Adam urges teams to physically and mentally visit where value is created. In manufacturing, that's the factory floor. In software, it's the analyst's spreadsheet, the developer's codebase, or the tester's environment. When teams observe each other's real work, they develop empathy and shared understanding. That transparency reinforces the Power of Trust — helping communication thrive where silos once stood. Disagree and Commit: The Power of Trust in Alignment Conflict doesn't destroy trust; it refines it. Adam calls this the disagree and commit principle — a hallmark of mature teams. Healthy disagreement surfaces risks, values, and differing priorities. Once discussed openly, the team commits to the final decision together. No finger-pointing, no second-guessing. This habit embodies the Power of Trust by turning friction into forward motion. The Power of Trust isn't about avoiding conflict — it's about using it to align around shared goals. Guiding Principles: Building Systems Around the Power of Trust Before a project begins, Adam recommends defining guiding principles — the rules of engagement that sustain the Power of Trust. Examples include: “Customer satisfaction must stay above a 4.0 rating.” “Average call time can rise by no more than 10 seconds.” “All initiatives must deliver ROI within two quarters.” When these principles are written down, decisions become consistent and fair. Trust grows because everyone understands how success will be measured and maintained. Leading Through the Power of Trust For leaders, the Trust means striking a balance between empathy and accountability. Adam suggests two types of sponsors for every major initiative: An executive sponsor who clears political obstacles. An operational sponsor who stays close to day-to-day work. Add in a skilled project manager who encourages honest conversation, and the Power of Trust becomes the foundation of performance — not just a talking point. Key Takeaways from Part 1 The Power of Trust transforms fear into feedback and silence into success. Psychological safety isn't soft — it's how great teams stay sharp. Transparency fosters empathy, and empathy in turn builds trust. Healthy conflict strengthens alignment when teams disagree and commit. Guiding principles establish a framework that fosters trust.

Things aren't quite as sunny on the environmental front as some recent guests suggest. According to the award winning science writer Peter Brannen, our planet is in an unprecedented crisis. We're burning 500 million years of the earth's history in a few decades, Brannen warns, so we should all quit pretending that our recycling will miraculously save the planet. That said, though, his latest book, The Story of CO2 is the Story of Everything, is the complex narrative of how carbon dioxide (CO2) both made and might unmake our world. So CO2 is simultaneously the good guy and the villain in our environmental story. Without carbon dioxide, Brannen warns, Earth would freeze into an uninhabitable ice ball. But too much creates a Venus-like greenhouse hell in which all life would be quickly extinguished. We hang in a delicate sweet spot that took nature millions of years to manufacture —and we humans are now disrupting this ecological balance at breakneck speed. The result is what Brannen calls a terrifying planetary experiment with no safety net. So stop pretending your recycling will save the earth, he warns. Fixing the planet will require more than a new Tesla and regular trips to Whole Foods. 1. CO2 is Earth's Essential Paradox Carbon dioxide both enables life and threatens to destroy it. Without CO2, Earth would freeze into an uninhabitable ice ball within decades. But too much creates a Venus-like greenhouse hell. We exist in an extremely narrow window that took millions of years to establish.2. We're Conducting an Unprecedented Planetary Experiment Humans are burning 500 million years of stored solar energy (fossil fuels) in just a few decades, releasing ancient CO2 at a rate 100 times faster than natural volcanic processes. This speed overwhelms Earth's natural ability to rebalance the system.3. Individual Consumer Actions Won't Save Us Recycling, driving electric cars, and other personal choices create demand for better technologies but won't solve a problem of this scale. The focus on consumer responsibility was actually a strategy pushed by fossil fuel companies to deflect from systemic change.4. Technology Offers Hope, But Carbon Removal is Fantasy Solar power costs have plummeted dramatically, offering genuine reasons for optimism. However, carbon capture and removal technologies are thermodynamically expensive and cannot scale to meaningful levels—they're "basically useless" if we don't first cut emissions to nearly zero.5. Democracy May Be Too Slow for Climate Action International climate treaties produce "mealy-mouthed press releases" while missing targets. Brannen suggests the most realistic path forward is that clean energy becomes so economically superior that countries adopt it regardless of political will, potentially leaving the U.S. behind if it doesn't adapt.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

Today, we are replaying one of my favorite conversations with Sam Hinkie. Sam worked for more than a decade in the NBA with the Houston Rockets and then as the President and GM of the Philadelphia 76ers. And now, after years of personal investing, he has launched his own venture capital firm, 87 Capital. Every conversation I have with Sam is alive with insight, and this one is no different. We explore the idea of studying the "breadcrumbs" that someone leaves behind as a way to track their progress and trajectory, finding and attracting the right people into one's orbit, and the lessons from the NBA that most shape his investing career. Sam has taught me the most about the topic of building trust, which we cover here as well. I am excited to share my conversation with Sam with all of you. Please enjoy!

This episode provides a powerful and practical 3-step framework for building unstoppable habits to create your dream life. Inspired by the wisdom of Jim Rohn, Randy explains that the secret to having more is becoming more, and the key to becoming more is mastering your daily habits. He breaks down a simple yet effective system for eliminating bad habits and stacking good ones. Listeners will learn the "Zero Day Mindset" to ensure daily progress, the importance of conducting an "Environment Audit" to remove distractions and set yourself up for success, and how to create a "Reward Loop" to make new habits stick. This is a concise, no-fluff guide to transforming your life by transforming your daily actions.   Key Takeaways: The foundation of building your dream life is mastering your daily habits. Step 1: The Zero Day Mindset. Commit to making at least some progress on your new habit every single day, no matter how small. Never let a day end at zero. Step 2: The Environment Audit. Proactively design your surroundings to make good habits easy and bad habits difficult. Remove distractions and set up visual cues for success. Step 3: The Reward Loop. Attach a meaningful, personal reward to the consistent practice of your new habit to reinforce the behavior and make it enjoyable. Habits are stackable; mastering one good habit (like journaling) makes it easier to build others in different areas of your life, such as health and productivity. Don't beat yourself up if you fall backward or miss a day. Acknowledge it, learn from it, and get right back on track without self-judgment.   Questions Answered in This Episode: What is the secret to building habits that actually stick? How can I achieve my biggest goals faster and with more ease? What is the "Zero Day Mindset" and how can it guarantee daily progress? How does your physical environment affect your ability to build good habits? What are the best ways to design your environment for success? What is a "Reward Loop" and why is it essential for habit formation? How do you stay motivated when building a new habit that feels difficult? What is the one simple habit that can change the entire trajectory of your life?   Key People, Concepts, & Terms: People: Randy Wilson, Jim Rohn.

For many artists, an art career takes many twists and turns—an adventure shaped by different mediums, jobs, and ways of sustaining creative work  while at the same time, educating oneself with the histories of your chosen path.  On this episode of The Unfinished Print: A Mokuhanga Podcast, I speak with printmaker Charles Spitzack. We talk about his discovery of mokuhanga and how it connects to his broader printmaking practice. Charles shares his early experiences making mokuhanga, his teaching methods, and how his understanding of the medium developed through a Western American perspective. He also speaks about his time at the Mokuhanga Project Space, and his thoughts on the differences between oil-based and water-based mokuhanga.

More info can be found, here.  Mokuhanga (木版画) - is a Japanese word meaning "wood" and "print." Traditionally, it refers to a relief printing method using woodblocks, water, natural handmade papers, and water-based pigments. With the rise of the sōsaku hanga (creative print) movement in the early to mid 20th century, mokuhanga expanded to include works made with Western oil pigments as well. Today, mokuhanga can be difficult to define, as many artists experiment with new approaches while others remain dedicated to traditional water-based methods. This balance between innovation and tradition shows that mokuhanga is limitless, continually evolving while still grounded in its past. sōsaku-hanga - or creative prints, is a style of printmaking which is predominantly, although not exclusively, prints made by one person. It started in the early twentieth century in Japan, in the same period as the shin-hanga movement. The artist designs, carves, and prints their own works. The designs, especially in the early days, may seem rudimentary but the creation of self-made prints was a breakthrough for printmakers moving away from where only a select group of carvers, printers and publishers created woodblock prints.  Stephen Hazel (1934-20120 - was a painter and printmaker based in the Pacific Northwest. He created works on paper, and educated upon the subject. More info can be found, here.  Beautiful Display 10: Beauties of Chinatown (1977) 24" x 17 11/16" Katheleen Rabel - is an American printmaker, painter and sculptor.

Unlike most printmaking methods, where multiple copies of the same image can be produced, a monotype typically has a single, one-of-a-kind image. It's called a "mono" type because it is not part of an edition like traditional prints (e.g., lithographs, etchings), where you can make multiple copies.  Mike Lyon  -  is an American artist. His medium has varied throughout his career such as "square tiles," or "pixels," through to making mokuhanga, monoprinting, and machine-assisted etching, drawing and mezzotint.

Inspired by the ideals of John Ruskin (1819-1900) and William Morris (1834-1896) in Britain, the movement in the United States was closely tied to architecture, furniture making, and decorative arts, promoting honesty and a functional beauty.  There was a link with social reform, criticizing modernity and industry and fostering communities of makers across the country. In Japan this folk movement was explored in the mingei movement of the early 20th Century.  William S. Rice (1873-1963) - was a painter, educator and woodblock artist from the United States.

Phillips (1884–1963) - was a British-Canadian printmaker who began his career as a commercial artist. After moving to Canada, he produced etchings, watercolors, and color woodcuts.
