In this solo episode, Shannon Jamail gets real about something every retreat leader needs to hear: failure isn't the enemy - it's proof that you're in the game. If you're not failing, you're not trying hard enough. Shannon dives into why "falling short" - whether it's your finances, your workshop, your attendance, or your execution - isn't something to avoid, it's something to learn from. You can hire the best coach, join the smartest program, and learn from the pros… and you'll still make mistakes. The difference? You'll fail faster and smarter. Shannon also shares how community is the real secret weapon for success - and how the Retreat Industry Forum is designed to bring that support, connection, and collective wisdom together for retreat hosts ready to grow. Key Takeaways If you're not failing, you're not stretching yourself enough. Failure doesn't mean your retreat "flopped" — it means something fell short and gave you data. The biggest mistake is waiting on the sidelines instead of doing the thing. Coaching and programs can help minimize expensive mistakes, but you'll still fail — that's how you grow. Community is what turns failure into forward momentum — and that's exactly what the Retreat Industry Forumis all about.

Struggling with costs in your healthcare organization? Reach out to Michael. Click Here for more info Episode Overview In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, Michael speaks with Michi McClure, Founder of Consivian, about her transformation from an “accidental leader” to a conscious architect of human and organizational growth. Michi shares how her firm evolved from its compliance origins into a full-spectrum business consultancy helping leaders and teams grow through authenticity, systems thinking, and self-awareness. Together, they explore what it means to build organizations that are not just compliant — but truly connected, conscious, and continually learning. Key Topics & Insights Authentic Connection as the Foundation of Growth Michael and Michi unpack how organizational health begins with authentic human connection. They discuss how leaders can create environments where people feel safe to speak openly, challenge ideas, and contribute meaningfully. Drawing inspiration from 3M's innovation culture and Amy Edmondson's research on psychological safety, the conversation highlights the power of balancing data-driven insight with genuine human empathy. The Power of Inclusion in Leadership Decisions Michael shares a story about a healthcare redesign initiative that excluded doctors from the planning process — a costly mistake that became a case study in why leaders must include all stakeholders. The story becomes a powerful metaphor for leadership humility, reminding us that sustainable change only happens when everyone's voice is invited to the table. Flexibility and Communication at Every Level Michi and Michael discuss how leaders can move beyond rigid structures and instead create flexible meeting formats, adaptive communication rhythms, and spaces for real-time problem-solving. They emphasize that leadership today isn't about following old rules — it's about being present, reflective, and responsive to what teams actually need. Visual Feedback and Leadership Awareness Michi shares her creative experiment with a “visual thermometer” on her office door, where her team could anonymously reflect how they perceived her leadership presence each day. This tool became a catalyst for self-awareness and emotional intelligence — qualities she believes are essential to modern leadership. Michael expands on the idea, encouraging leaders to “take their own pulse” after key interactions to assess connection and tone. Reflection as the Path to Personal and Organizational Growth Both Michi and Michael underscore the importance of reflective learning — recognizing blind spots, seeking feedback, and embracing discomfort as a teacher. Michi connects this process to burnout prevention, explaining how reflection and feedback re-energize leaders by aligning them more deeply with purpose. Creativity, Self-Care, and Sustainable Leadership In a discussion that blends philosophy and practicality, Michi advocates for leaders to give themselves “space and grace” to recharge creatively. Michael introduces the timeless “sharpen the saw” parable, illustrating how sustainable productivity requires rest, reflection, and recalibration. Together, they explore how Consivian helps leaders move from burnout to balanced, consistent performance — like the steady pace of a tortoise rather than the burnout-driven sprint of a hare. Navigating Organizational Change with Self-Awareness Michi dives into the challenges of change management, noting that many leaders attempt to “fix” others before examining their own systems. She encourages a shift toward self-inquiry, using feedback loops and system mapping to uncover invisible barriers that hinder transformation. Continuous Learning as a Business Imperative To close, Michi shares how continuous learning shapes the culture at Consivian — each client engagement becomes a new opportunity for insight, innovation, and growth. She invites listeners to explore more about her work and resources at consivian.com. Connect with Michi McClure & Consivian

Chain of Learning: Empowering Continuous Improvement Change Leaders
How often do you find yourself racing from meeting to meeting, rushing through tasks, or filling every silence with your own voice? In our doing-oriented culture, pausing feels uncomfortable—even counterproductive. Yet left unchecked, our instinct for action and answers can limit learning, development, and innovation.In this episode, I explore the power of the pause and why mastering it may be one of the most transformative leadership habits you can develop. Pausing with purpose—slowing down to create space for silence, reflection, and intentional action—actually accelerates your impact. It's in the pause—the space between our “doing”—that learning deepens, decisions improve, and people grow. Whether you're leading a team, coaching others, or developing your own learning mindset, this episode will help you discover the power of the pause to drive performance, engagement, and lasting change.YOU'LL LEARN:Why silence feels uncomfortable—and how our instinct to fill the space with our thinking limits growth, reflection, and learningHow embracing ma (間), the Japanese concept of “ meaningful space between”, creates the conditions for learning, understanding, and transformation The importance of intentional reflection (hansei) to cultivate a learning culture rooted in continuous improvementWhy mastering the pause creates ripple effects across your team, transforms your leadership, and leads to better resultsThree ways to develop the power of the pause as a transformational leadership habit to create clarity, ownership, and insightIMPORTANT LINKS:Full episode show notes with links to other podcast episodes and resources: ChainOfLearning.com/56 Check out my website for resources and ways to work with me KBJAnderson.comFollow me on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/kbjandersonTIMESTAMPS FOR THIS EPISODE:01:50 The benefits of mastering the pause 02:12 Why silence is uncomfortable making us want to keep things moving05:05 Katie's aha moment of the telling habit08:58 How to pause to create space for others to think10:16 How the pause is used in Japanese culture13:18 The meaning of ma (間) and how to apply this concept15:41 How reflection (hansei) is deeply rooted in Toyota's culture16:17 An example of how Agustín created pauses in the busyness of the usual work routines to give space for conversations17:47 Why the power of the pause is three-fold17:51 [ONE] Restore the PDSA (Plan-Do-Study-Adjust) cycle18:20 [TWO] Pausing gives others space to think18:46 [THREE] The pause shifts you from being reactive to proactive19:40 Three ways to practice the power of the pause19:44 [FIRST] Count silently to 10 after you ask an open question20:01 [SECOND] Schedule reflection and thinking time for yourself and for your team20:22 [THIRD] Practice the Intention Pause21:32 The benefits of holding back before sharing your idea

Join us for an enlightening conversation this week with Zorana Ivcevic Pringle, a senior research scientist at Yale University's Center for Emotional Intelligence, as she shatters the myth of creativity as a fixed trait. Her insights from "The Creativity Choice: The Science of Making Decisions to Turn Ideas into Action" guide us through redefining creativity as a choice, empowering us to intentionally cultivate it in all aspects of life. Whether you're an artist or a business professional, Zorana's wisdom will help you recognize and harness your creative potential.We explore the (often overwhelming) challenge of managing an abundance of ideas and the art of creative problem-solving. Learn practical strategies to overcome creative blocks, such as task switching and the innovative concepts of "problem finding" and "problem construction" that encourage redefining challenges for fresh solutions. Explore the vital role of psychological safety in fostering organizational creativity. We discuss how leaders can create an environment where diverse perspectives are welcomed, and emotions are seen as valuable datapoints for decision-making.

Episode #177: Join me, Kimberly Lovi, on an insightful journey as we explore the path to financial empowerment and personal growth in this episode of "In Studio." We'll begin by discussing the critical steps needed to expand your business and income. You'll discover the power of setting clear, specific financial goals rather than settling for vague desires. Together, we'll work backwards to assess where you currently stand and map out the steps needed to reach your desired financial future. By breaking down expenses and creating a concrete plan, we'll guide you towards achieving financial security. Next, we'll tackle the transformative shift from a scarcity mindset to one of abundance. It's essential to recognize money as a form of energy that fuels your ambitions and impacts the world around you. We'll talk about the importance of investing in your business and involving others in your vision to drive success. Letting go of limiting beliefs about money is key, and you'll learn how collaboration and financial investment in capable hands can elevate your endeavors. Finally, we'll highlight the significance of investing in personal growth and development. Drawing from my experiences with courses like Amy Porterfield's Digital Course Academy and a Harvard course on data science principles, I'll share how acquiring new skills can propel both your business and personal goals. We'll also emphasize the importance of setting ambitious goals, surrounding yourself with proactive individuals, and avoiding negativity. Plus, for those struggling with mindset barriers, I'll introduce my mindset course to help you gain clarity and overcome obstacles. As we wrap up, we'll reflect on the importance of accountability and invite you to connect and share your progress. Thank you for joining us, and we hope you leave inspired to take action toward your success.

This week, Traci sits down with Tan Moorthy, CEO of Revature and accomplished business leader with over three decades of experience in the global IT services industry.After 23 years with Infosys—where he served as Executive Vice President across multiple functions including Head of Delivery Operations for US, Canada, and LATAM, Group Head of HR, and Global Head of Education—Tan now focuses on bridging the talent gap through workforce transformation. He's also a champion of sustainable development, having led UN work groups defining corporate metrics for Sustainable Development Goals.Spoiler alert: That knowledge you're protecting isn't as proprietary as you think—and hoarding it might be the very thing keeping you from growing.Tan reveals why learning at the speed of change is the only way to stay relevant, how upskilling existing employees delivers faster ROI than external hiring, and the three-pillar framework (education, engagement, exposure) that builds true competence. Plus, he shares the career-defining moment when a failed proposal taught him that content without communication means lost opportunities.What We Cover:The proposal that changed everything – How losing a client deal due to poor communication skills sparked Tan's transformation into a lifelong learner and eventually led him to share a stage with Steve BallmerWhy comfort zones are career killers – The counterintuitive move from a successful business role into corporate HR that everyone warned against, and why it opened doors Tan never imaginedThe three pillars of competence – Breaking down how knowledge, skills, and attitude combine through education, engagement, and exposure to create lasting workforce transformationLearning at the speed of change – Why continuous learning isn't about getting ahead anymore—it's about staying in the same place you are nowThe upskilling advantage over external hiring – How investing in people who already know your systems, culture, and ecosystem delivers immediate productivity versus the ramp-up time new hires requireWhy knowledge hoarding backfires – The fundamental truth that if you don't share what you know, someone else will—and why giving more means getting more in returnMentorship as a two-way street – How working with Gen Z employees (or any generation different from yours) creates peer-to-peer learning that benefits both sides equallyThe innovation power of different perspectives – Why surrounding yourself with people who think like you guarantees stagnation, and how diverse viewpoints spark breakthrough ideasBuilding elastic teams that bend without breaking – How creating learning ecosystems helps organizations adapt through pandemics, economic shifts, elections, and technological disruptionKey Quote: "You've got to learn at the speed of change for you to stay in the same place that you are, let alone to run." – Tan MoorthyConnect with Tan Moorthy: LinkedIn: Tan Moorthy Company: RevatureConnect with Traci here: https://linktr.ee/HRTraciDisclaimer: Thoughts, opinions, and statements made on this podcast are not a reflection of the thoughts, opinions, and statements of the Company by whom Traci Chernoff is actively employed.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products or services.

How much and how often should I be paying myself from my private practice? How can I effectively manage my business expenses? How much money should I spend on personal development each year? How much should I set aside for taxes? These are some of the most common questions I help therapists solve when they join my signature course, Money Skills For Therapists, and are looking to gain clarity into their business finances and create stability in their practices. In this podcast episode, I offer an in-depth overview of the various jobs your money must do, no matter how much of it you're making or the size of your practice. But before we dive into the specifics of all these different jobs, the core concept that I want to leave you with today is that your money needs to take care of you.In our professions, we give so much time and energy to our clients. We're also natural caregivers to our children or our aging parents, or we're giving to our community and our friends in all these other ways. We tend to be very giving, self-sacrificing humans.What's important to remember is that when you build a business and start generating money, part of that business' job is to take care of you so that you can keep showing up in life - both professionally and personally - and do the incredible work in the way that only you can do it.Establishing Clear Boundaries: Fixed vs. Variable Business Expenses The first step to making your money work for you is to identify business non-negotiables like taxes, rent, software, utilities, and other expenses that are required for you to conduct business. Many practice owners find it useful to use multiple bank accounts – one for each large expense group like taxes, business expenses, and payroll – to help manage and visualize how much money goes toward each category.For variable expenses, like personal development, getting clear on your budget, being strategic and making informed decisions can help prevent overspending funds you might need for license renewals or other necessary expenses.And rather than swiping cash from the business to pay your mortgage or other personal bills just before they're due, you can begin to create stability and security in your personal financial life by having a clear and consistent amount deposited into your personal checking account each month as a regular, reliable paycheck that you and your family can depend on.(00:22:52) "What you can control is what you are doing with your money. We need to focus on what is in our control." - Linzy Bonham Optimizing Business Expenses for Private Practices (00:05:25) Separating Your Revenue into Necessary Expense Categories (00:07:17) Optimizing Business Expenses for Private Therapy Practices (00:10:35) Strategic Budgeting for Personal Development & Continuous Learning (00:13:37) Profit & Paycheck Systems That Create Financial Stability at Home (00:18:06) Establishing Expense Buffers to Sustain Your Practice During Rough Patches Action Steps for Therapists Who Want to Create Financial Stability with Their Private Practice: Establish a separate, dedicated bank account for tax savings or other large expensesIdentify variable and fixed business expenses and identify the amounts for these that is sustainable for your businessSet a clear professional development budget for the year so you don't overspendEstablish a regular paycheck system that allows you to have regular, reliable paychecks coming home each month for
Key takeaways from this podcast: The Power of Human Capital: The speakers emphasized that human capital is the most valuable resource in any organization, even in the age of AI. Importance of Trust and Comfort: Building a strong mentor-mentee relationship relies heavily on trust and comfort, allowing for open and honest communication. The Value of Structured Processes: Tools like Hogan assessments and 360-degree feedback, combined with structured frameworks like "stop, start, continue," provide valuable insights and direction for leadership development. Organizational Culture and Leadership: The Podcast highlighted the impact of organizational culture on leadership development, drawing examples from Tata Power and KEC International. Continuous Learning and Adaptation: Effective leadership requires continuous learning, adaptation to new environments, and a willingness to embrace change, including the integration of new technologies like AI.

Reinventing your life or career starts with reflection and conversation. Making the leap — to a new career, to the next stage of a relationship, or to a different version of yourself — requires honest communication. For Ilana Golan, being “leap-ready” requires that we answer three questions: Why me? Why this? And why now?Golan knows all about these leaps, as her career spans corporate executive roles, entrepreneurship, and even F-16 flight instruction. As the founder of Leap Academy and host of the Leap Academy Podcast, she helps equip others to navigate their own personal and professional reinventions. As she says, “It's really about communicating from the vision,” which starts as an inside job. “Why is this the right thing for me right now? You convince yourself first, because when you're [at] peace with what you're trying to do, it's a lot easier to convince others.”In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, Golan and host Matt Abrahams explore how honest communication shapes every stage of reinvention, whether that's listening to the signals your mind and body are sending you — like “sleepwalking through life” and imagining something more — or articulating your pivot in ways that create understanding rather than resistance. Wherever you hope to leap, Golan's insights show how to communicate through change with confidence and clarity.Episode Reference Links:Ilana GolanLeap Academy Podcast | Leap AcademyEp.187 Experimenting, Failing, and Finding Your Job Fit - Catalyze Your CareerEp.147 Disrupt Yourself: How to Innovate Who You Are and Become Who You Can Be Connect: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 (01:39) - Breaking Barriers & Career Patterns (02:18) - Waking Up to Change (03:42) - Signs It's Time for a Pivot (06:45) - The Rise of Portfolio Careers (10:17) - Communicating Career Leaps (13:29) - Finding Clarity in Reinvention (20:01) - The Final Three Questions (22:56) - Conclusion *****Thank you to our sponsors.
