In this episode, we're discussing what it means to be "aptly available" in a marriage. I outline five keys that can help take a marriage to the next level for couples already present and engaged in their relationships. I emphasize the importance of intentionality, curiosity, vocalizing appreciation, time-blocking, and praying together. Plus, I'm sharing some personal anecdotes and practical advice to help couples strengthen their connection and move from being just available to being "awesomely attentive." **Key Points:**- The meaning of "apt" and how it applies to marriage.- The importance of intentionality in maintaining a strong marriage and avoiding complacency.- Staying curious about each other, vocalizing appreciation, and time-blocking to ensure quality time together. The episode ends with a powerful affirmation for prioritizing marriage intentionally and putting in the work to maintain a successful relationship.

Celebrated historian Dr. Nancy Koehn did not expect to write a book about crisis leadership. But as she studied many experiences of history’s transformational leaders, she discovered that so often great leadership is developed out of one’s ability to both learn from failure and to rise to inspire others.During this discussion, Koehn shares some of the critical crisis leadership lessons from her book Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times with host Gary Heil. Together they examine the similarities and circumstances that shape courageous leaders and how these lessons apply to leaders facing the tumultuous business landscape and ongoing global crises of today. Key takeaways: What courageous leadership looks like in action.How the best leaders are often forged through failure.Why leadership is more than choices: it's a reflection of who you are in crisis.The power of purpose in leadership: why meaning and value are critical.

The Learning Leader Show With Ryan Hawk Text LEARNERS to 44222 Full show notes can be found at www.LearningLeader.com #369: Nancy Koehn & Adi Ignatius Nancy Koehn is a historian at the Harvard Business School. She's the author of multiple books, her most recent: Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times. Adi Ignatius is the Editor in Chief of the Harvard Business Review. Previously, he was deputy managing editor for Time, where he was responsible for many of its special editions, including the Person of the Year and Time 100 franchises. Notes: Sustaining excellence = Leaders are made, not born "Crisis are great greenhouses to make great leaders" Resilience - It's a muscle built over time A unique combination - The ability to commit, married to that, but flexibility to the means to make it happen Empathy & Emotional awareness - How a leader shows up in service to the mission Convey conviction and confidence A real sense of how much impact a leader has. Humble and own the sense that they have great influence. They use it to help people overcome their own limitations Adi - Understand the long term. Need the ability to shift. Transparency - Direct reports should know where they stand at all times. Emotional discipline: Don't send email when you're mad. Think about the long term impact of what you do. JFK - White House discovered missiles in Cuba. Read: Guns Of August - How WWI Started Slow pace down Imagine what Khrushchev would do - Give him room, hold off... Use "calculated empathy" Standing up to others like Winston Churchill - He stood up to the opposition. Dunkirk - Leadership when everything changes Ernest Shackleton - He took 27 men to Antarctica How did he avoid mutiny in the midst of huge adversity? He had the trust of his men. They believed he cared about them. Emotional awareness - He addressed their fears - "What can I do to address their fears?" Extraordinary ability to toggle seamlessly between little things like the weather and the big picture. Zoom in and zoom out. Pay attention to the mundane - The daily work schedule. Stick to the routine. And also have a plan to solve the problem. How to lead a remote team: It's reassuring to have your leaders step up and speak the truth. "Here's what we're going to do..." False optimism doesn't help. Honesty is critical. Brutal honesty + credible hope... Share the team's capabilities, the history. "Nothing to fear but fear itself." Great leaders 'feed their team.' Leaders in crisis: Shackleton gave duties to each man. They regularly changed duties to stay fresh. Isolation feeds fear. It feeds the 'worst case scenario' in the minds of people. Shackleton combated that by forcing them to socialize. They told stories, had skits, made up games. He empowered his team. It's important to have rituals that bring you back to a good place. For Nancy: 1) Deep breaths 2) Classical music 3) Walks Adi: Meditates daily, 10 minutes of breath work. Connect, Connect, Connect with others. Say thank you. Shift places depending on the type of work. President Lincoln had no plans for winning the way. "I navigated from point to point." "Great careers are build on passion and the dedication to do the work." Gather years in every career. You do not always need to check off boxes. "Life is long. Don't burn bridges." The benefits of teaching: "It keeps you honest. You have to think like a chess player. You must stoke the fires of curiosity."
Stuck at home, but busier than ever? With the zoom meetings, homeschooling, cooking, cleaning, making sure everyone is healthy and safe, managing your business, making sure you don't run out of groceries or toilet paper. It's a lot? How are we handling it all? Are you handling it all? It's Ok if the answer is No. All of us are adjusting to this new world we live in there is no right way….just the way that works for you and your family. But while we know that in our heads, living it is a different story. I've been in action mode-how can I serve? How can I prepare? I've been busy serving my clients, recording relevant podcast episodes, updating my equipment for video keynotes, taking care of my kids, making sure my parents are safe and making sure I deliver as a leader. It's a lot. You probably have your own list……so today is a reminder to not get sucked into to this hamster wheel of productivity and stress. Give yourself grace and I will do the same. I recorded this episode with Dr. Valerie Rein last month before the world shifted, but her message is more relevant than ever and she shares simple tools that will help you through this time and in the future. "Our pain oftentimes opens gates to our mission in life." - Dr. Valerie Rein Why is it that many women feel stuck on the hamster wheel of achievement or to-dos' or we may look like we have it all together on the outside, yet feel burnt out or unfulfilled on the inside? My guest today, Dr. Valerie Rein wants to shift the conversation from 'how much can I bear?' to 'how good can it get?' A psychologist, women's mental health expert and business consultant, Dr. Valerie created “the only” science-backed system for helping women achieve their ultimate success, happiness, and fulfillment. Dr. Valerie's latest book is called Patriarchy Stress Disorder: The Invisible Inner Barrier to Women's Happiness and Fulfillment. She holds a Masters of Education in Psychological Counseling from Columbia University and a PhD from the Institute of Transpersonal Psychology. "We're so conditioned to think that there's something wrong with us. Again, that is a very patriarchal conditioning.” - Dr. Valerie Rein In this episode, we talk about how you can start thriving instead of surviving, why you may be feeling dissatisfied in spite of your achievements, and why it's not your fault. Dr. Valerie also shares about her journey as a young child growing up in Russia to moving to the US in her 20's striving to check off all the boxes of success until a pivotal moment in the ER led to this groundbreaking work to help women truly thrive. She talks about how she almost didn't write the book and shares tools to help you navigate when you're stepping into your next level work. She also gives you resources and tools to help you heal and discusses how this work also impacts men, our communities and organizations. "It takes stillness and desire to find that true calling." - Dr. Valerie Rein Show Notes: What are causes of stress for women The REAL STRUGGLE for high achieving women What is Patriarchy stress disorder How trauma gets passed down genetically Why women are struggling What is the first step to healing How your body remembers trauma How to rewire the nervous system What is success? The BUSY-NESS addiction How to find your true calling "Stop the madness of just spinning and running fast in the wheel of achievement when it's not bringing us any closer to fulfillment and happiness." - Dr. Valerie Rein 3 Pieces of Advice or Action Steps: Whatever you think is wrong with you. It is not you and there is nothing wrong with you. There are other factors at play. Recognize your preciousness and connect with others who people who can recognize your preciousness. Whatever it is that you need to stay happy, peaceful, and relaxed - do it! "You can be busy and fulfilled." - Dr. Valerie Rein Brand and Resource Mentions: Dr. Valerie's FREE 3 minute repower tool Dr. Valerie's Podcast Dr. Valerie's book Patriarchy Stress Disorder Patriarchy Stress Disorder resources Connect with Dr. Valerie Rein: Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | Dr. Valerie Rein Thanks for being a part of this bold and powerful conversation on The Power of The Only!

This week on the show, Anne Foster is BACK. One of our most popular shows last year on textiles, Anne Foster, founder of @Elkie & Ark is this time putting her environmental scientist/economist hat on and we discuss the climate crisis and the every day things you and I can work on to reduce emissions to 30% below 1990 - yep, you read that right! Anne takes us through the current research on reducing emissions and drawing down carbon, and we also spend time discussing personal changes we have on the cards or have struggled with, so that you get a good window into weighing up decisions and don’t feel quite so alone in the many changes we’re all feeling called to make in this intersection between the world where we did everything based on convenience and we now need to redefine convenience to include the care for our planet as a “successful performance” metric. I hope you enjoy the show and as always, you can find the show notes and supporter offer details on lowtoxlife.com/podcast

Nancy examined the lives of five of the greatest leaders of all time to better understand how they led through adversity and came out the other side stronger. These extraordinary individuals include: polar explorer Ernest Shackleton; President Abraham Lincoln; legendary abolitionist Frederick Douglass; Nazi-resisting clergyman Dietrich Bonhoeffer; and environmental crusader Rachel Carson.In her book, Forged in Crisis: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times, Nancy begins each chapter by showing her protagonist on the precipice of a great crisis: Shackleton marooned on an Antarctic ice floe; Lincoln on the verge of seeing the Union collapse; escaped slave Douglass facing possible capture; Bonhoeffer agonizing over how to counter absolute evil with faith; Carson racing against the cancer ravaging her in a bid to save the planet. Significantly, as we follow each leader’s against-all-odds journey, we begin to glean an essential truth: leaders are not born but made.

FORGED IN CRISIS The Power of Courageous Leadership In Turbulent Times by Harvard Business School historian Nancy Koehn For leaders in the 21st century, there is one pressing question: What set of skills is required to lead in crisis, and can history give us answers? Harvard Business School historian and professor Nancy Koehn has surveyed some of history’s greatest leaders and made an incredible discovery: courageous leaders are not born but made, and the power to lead resides in each of us. Forged in Crisis is the dramatic, insightful epic that can teach anyone how to develop remarkable leadership skills. We live in a time when faith and confidence in leaders—whether in government, business, or religion—is nil. People sense with growing unease that everything is at stake—long-formed international alliances, the economy, a unified Europe, even the fate of the planet—and yet the highest offices across the globe are occupied by the inexperienced and untested, those who lack the decency, decorum, and courage required of the positions they hold. We’re led by people we cannot fully trust and the pressing questions are great: what set of skills is required to lead, both in times of stability and of crisis? What traits must we seek in those to whom we hand our fate? How do we become the types of leaders the world needs right now? In her masterly new book FORGED IN CRISIS: The Power of Courageous Leadership in Turbulent Times, celebrated Harvard Business School historian Nancy Koehn delivers in-depth portraits of five of history’s most brilliant leaders, spotlighting the diverse skills they relied on to lead, especially in moments of crisis. Based on personal letters, diaries, archival material, and official records, Forged in Crisis presents the remarkable life journeys of polar explorer Ernest Shackleton; President Abraham Lincoln; legendary abolitionist Frederick Douglass; Nazi-resisting clergyman Dietrich Bonhoeffer; and environmental crusader Rachel Carson—united here in their struggle to transform from ordinary people into great leaders. Koehn begins each of the book’s five sections by showing its protagonist on the precipice of a great crisis: Shackleton marooned on an Antarctic ice floe; Lincoln on the verge of seeing the Union collapse; escaped slave Douglass facing possible capture; Bonhoeffer agonizing over how to counter absolute evil with faith; Carson racing against the cancer ravaging her in a bid to save the planet. The narrative then reaches back to each person’s childhood and shows the individual growing—step by step—into the person he or she will ultimately become. Readers observe the qualities that these icons draw on to not just meet but triumph over great challenges, in the process becoming real leaders. By examining how these qualities emerge, Forged in Crisis offers a remarkable template by which to judge the leaders of our own time. Koehn also delivers an inspiring and important reminder that great leaders are made, not born, and that ordinary people are capable of extraordinary things. In the vein of works by David McCullough and Doris Kearns Goodwin, Forged in Crisis is a compelling historical narrative and a repository of great insight. More than that, it is a book that matters, perhaps now more than ever. Ten years in the writing, Forged in Crisis stands as a towering achievement.
