Welcome to the first episode of the Purpose to Impact Series here on Stories from the River.  In this episode, Charlie Malouf, Manny Rodrigues, and Heather Greenwood dive into their enriching experiences from a two-day workshop hosted by Broad River Retail and created by Nick Craig of the Core Leader Institute. The workshop, focusing on the Purpose to Impact program, brought together a diverse group of leaders from across the country and a few Memory Makers from Broad River for two days (October 22-23, 2024) in Fort Mill, South Carolina, and was led by Nick Craig along with Davin Salvagno.  Charlie, Heather, and Manny found the intimate setting and pre-work exercises beneficial for deep self-reflection. There were a dozen overall leaders who were then put into smaller cohorts of four people each.  The smaller group size facilitated candid sharing, enabled the participants to form strong bonds, and minimized passive participation. Each person was encouraged to explore significant life challenges and leadership successes, paving the way for meaningful discussions and authentic connections. Charlie, Heather, and Manny shared personal reflections and takeaways, underscoring the importance of fully engaging with the process. The effective facilitation by Nick and Davin allowed for impactful one-on-one sessions and cohort sharing.  The two-day workshop culminates in crystallizing your personal purpose statement.  Charlie, Heather, and Manny each revealed their own personal purpose statements that came about through this intensive and reflective workshop.  Heather's purpose statement, "To light the spark that ignites greatness in others," resonated with her belief in supporting and inspiring others.  Manny's purpose statement, "Illuminating the path one story at a time," echoed his commitment to understanding and sharing stories to help others.  Charlie's simplified purpose statement of "Play the game" defines his philosophy and approach to life.  The trio emphasized the value of forming deep relationships and the transformative potential of fully participating in the workshop, ultimately advocating for intentional living and continuous personal growth.

In this episode of Stories from the River, host Charlie Malouf wraps up the Ron Carucci series by welcoming special guests Marcus Benjamin and Davin Salvagno. Both guests provide insights into Ron Carucci's impactful talk delivered at Broad River Retail on Friday, September 20, 2024. Marcus Benjamin, CEO at Benjamin Strategy, and Davin Salvagno, founder of PurposePoint and the Purpose Summit, share their admiration for Carucci and his ability to inspire and educate his audience. Having collaborated with Carucci on numerous occasions, Davin describes Ron's talk as one of the best he has ever given, highlighting the impactful message of understanding not just who people are but "whose they are you." Marcus adds that Ron's stories and data-driven insights resonated well with Broad River's culture, emphasizing the importance of having robust "seams" within organizational structures to facilitate growth. Both guests reflect on the key takeaways from Carucci's talk, emphasizing the importance of self-awareness, vulnerability, and trust in fostering a healthy work environment.

In this episode of "Flourish or Fold," I am very excited to share my profound discussion with bestselling author and keynote speaker Davin Salvagno on themes that are near and dear to me, resilience and life purpose. This episode delves deep into the challenges people face and how these challenges can serve as invitations to discover and embrace their purpose. We discuss how life's challenges can serve as invitations to discover and embrace one's purpose. Davin shares personal experiences, including his recent move to Charlotte, North Carolina, highlighting that purpose is a continuous journey shaped by various moments. Davin emphasizes that resilience involves reframing challenges as growth opportunities. Below, we break down the key insights and actionable advice shared during this enlightening discussion.Understanding Purpose as a Continuous JourneyWe began by challenging the common notion that discovering one's purpose is a singular, life-defining moment. We reference a quote from Mark Twain, which states that the two most important days in a person's life are the day they are born and the day they discover their purpose. However, we both agree that this idea can be misleading.Key Takeaways:Purpose is Multifaceted: Purpose often manifests in multiple ways throughout our lives. It is not a single event but a series of moments and experiences that shape our understanding of who we are and what we are meant to do.Invitations and Signposts: Davin introduces the concept of "invitations" or "signposts" that guide individuals toward their purpose. These can be significant life events, challenges, or even subtle nudges that steer us in a particular direction.Actionable Advice:Reflect on Past Experiences: Take time to reflect on significant moments in your life. Identify patterns or recurring themes that may point toward your purpose.Stay Open to New Opportunities: Be open to new experiences and challenges, as they can serve as invitations to explore different aspects of your purpose.Reframing ChallengesDavin suggests a shift in mindset: challenges often happen for us, not to us. While some tragedies in life are inexplicable, most challenges can be reframed as opportunities for growth and learning.Key Takeaways:Growth Through Adversity: Challenges can serve as significant catalysts for uncovering our purpose. They often evoke deep emotions and lead us to want to help others facing similar struggles.No Pain is Wasted: Taryn resonates with this perspective, noting that every experience contributes to personal growth and character development.Actionable Advice:Reframe Your Challenges: When faced with a challenge, ask yourself what you can learn from the experience and how it can contribute to your growth.Seek Support: Surround yourself with supportive individuals who can help you navigate difficult times and provide perspective.Building ResilienceResilience is not just about enduring hardships but also about transforming those experiences into opportunities for growth and connection with others.Key Takeaways:Resilience as a Skill: Resilience can be cultivated through understanding that every experience contributes to our growth and understanding of who we are meant to be.Purpose Points: Davin introduces the concept of "purpose points," pivotal moments in life that shape one's character and understanding of purpose.Actionable Advice:Develop a Resilience Toolkit: Equip yourself with tools and strategies to build resilience, such as mindfulness practices, journaling, and seeking mentorship.Embrace the Journey: Understand that discovering your purpose is a continuous process. Embrace each moment and experience as part of your journey.Personal Challenges and SacrificesDavin shares his personal experience of moving to Charlotte, North Carolina, which he describes as one of the most challenging experiences of his life. This transition required significant sacrifices and brought about emotional struggles for his family.Key Takeaways:Prioritizing What Matters: Davin emphasizes the importance of being present for his family during this challenging time, allowing space for their emotions and struggles.Trust Over Clarity: He shares a quote from Mother Teresa, stating that she never had clarity, only trust, which resonates deeply with him during this season of uncertainty.Actionable Advice:Be Present: During times of transition, prioritize what is most important in each moment. Be present for yourself and your loved ones.Trust the Process: Even when the future is unclear, trust that your journey will reveal its purpose in time.Identifying and Combating Negative ThoughtsDavin discusses the concept of "thieves of purpose," which are thoughts that can rob individuals of their purpose and potential, such as comparison, fear, doubt, and the pursuit of success.Key Takeaways:Awareness of Negative Thoughts: Recognize and combat negative thoughts that undermine your sense of purpose.Success vs. Significance: While success can be fulfilling, it can also distract from the deeper significance of life, which lies in making a meaningful impact on others.Actionable Advice:Practice Self-Awareness: Regularly check in with yourself to identify any negative thoughts or beliefs that may be holding you back.Focus on Impact: Shift your focus from pursuing success to making a meaningful impact on others.This episode of "Flourish or Fold" serves as a powerful reminder that resilience and purpose are intricately connected. Listeners are encouraged to embrace their challenges as integral parts of their journey toward discovering and fulfilling their purpose. By reframing challenges, building resilience, and staying open to new opportunities, we can navigate life's transitions with trust and confidence.Final Thoughts:This episode is a treasure trove of wisdom and practical advice for anyone navigating their own path toward resilience and purpose. Whether you're facing a major life transition or simply seeking to understand your purpose better, Davin's insights will inspire and guide you.Embrace the Journey: Remember that discovering your purpose is a continuous process filled with various moments and experiences.Cultivate Resilience: Equip yourself with the tools and strategies to build resilience and transform challenges into opportunities for growth.Trust the Process: Even when the future is unclear, trust that your journey will reveal its purpose in time.By following these insights and actionable advice, you can navigate

Welcome back to the 12th and final episode of The Purpose Summit series on Stories from the River. Host Charlie Malouf interviews Kent Chevalier, the Team Chaplain of the Pittsburgh Steelers, at the Purpose Summit held at the NASCAR Hall of Fame Museum Gear Shop. Kent shares his backstory, highlighting his transition from a youth pastor to becoming an NFL chaplain.  Kent describes how a Steelers player, Vance McDonald, introduced him to the role after attending the church where Kent was a pastor. Initially unfamiliar with the concept of a sports chaplain, Kent was nonetheless intrigued and felt a calling that led him to take on this unique ministry. Working with Athletes in Action, Kent serves as the team chaplain and has access to the team.

Welcome to The Purpose Summit Series on Stories from the River! To kick off this 12-episode series with selected speakers from The Purpose Summit 2024, Charlie Malouf welcomes Davin Salvagno, Founder and CEO of Purpose Point and a return guest of the podcast. They sat down for this conversation at the NASCAR Hall of Fame Museum Gear Shop during The Purpose Summit 2024. A friend of The River, this episode marks Davin's fifth appearance on the podcast.  Davin shares the experience of bringing the 5th Purpose Summit to Charlotte, and he discusses the intricate planning and teamwork that goes into organizing The Purpose Summit.  Recorded in front of a live audience during the breakout sessions on day two of the Summit, Salvagno shares insights about the opening night of The Purpose Summit, where purposeful and positive speakers like Nick Craig and Jon Gordon set a high standard, delivering messages that were both inspiring and transformative for attendees. He describes the first night as a microcosm of the Summit's larger objective, emphasizing the importance of stopping to follow others' maps and instead becoming map-makers. The Purpose Leadership Awards also shone a spotlight on organizations exemplifying purpose from three different areas (for profit, non profit, and faith-based). The discussion moves to the events of the following morning with presentations by Ron Carucci and Mark Whitacre, both delivering impactful content that challenged and inspired participants. Davin reveals that this year's feedback was particularly positive, noting a stronger emphasis on actionable "how-to" advice compared to previous summits.  He addresses the demanding nature of organizing the Summit, sharing his motivation drawn from the high percentage of disengaged workers and the transformative potential business holds. Both Charlie and Davin underscore the significance of the event for attendees and organizations like Broad River Retail. Looking ahead, The Purpose Summit is set to return to Charlotte in 2025, with Salvagno expressing hope for the Summit to continue its impact and possibly establish a long-term home in Charlotte.

The Beginnings of Purpose (ft. Davin Salvagno)The inaugural show of Season Two of Playmakers introduces our central mission: to live on purpose.OPENING QUOTE:“If each of us could see the difference and the impact we make every single day through the work that we— not have to do, but the work that we get to do— then we would never work a day in our life.”—Davin SalvagnoGUEST BIO:Davin Salvagno is the founder and CEO of PurposePoint, having previously served in leadership roles at Costco, Macy's, and CVS Health. He is also the co-founder of the Purpose Summit, the world's largest purpose-centric event which this year will be held in May at the University of Notre Dame football stadium. Davin is also a thought leader whose book Finding Purpose at Work is essential reading for anyone who wants a career and life filled with purpose and intention.Show Links:PurposePoint BioLinkedInInstagramFacebookBookCORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[5:44] - Defining ImpactDavin gives us a clear, concise, and memorable definitionDavin defines impact as ‘when your life in some way, shape, or form enters the life of another in an indelible way.' Indelible means your impact cannot be expunged, cannot be erased. When thought of this way, impact takes on a massive sense of responsibility.[10:31] - Be Before You DoLeaders start with who they are, not what they wantDavin says that “Great leaders be before they do.” That means that before leaders begin making requests and moving resources, they first must live their purpose, embrace their gifts and talents, and find their ‘why.' Without that, they're just managers— not true leaders of others or even themselves.[24:44] - Lessons from RockyLessons on moving forward from our favorite fictional boxerIn a recent installment in Sylvester Stallone's Rocky franchise, Rocky Balboa tells his son, “It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.” What could we accomplish in our lives and careers if we got back up just one more time after being knocked down by circumstances or mistakes? When we find our purpose, we have the inspiration to find out.[31:10] - What Good Looks LikeA powerful North Star to followDavin Salvagno has spent his entire career on the hunt for ‘what good looks like'— so much so that he named his podcast after that search. When we look around us for true acts of goodness, whether in our personal lives or in the behavior of great organizations, we discover guiding principles we can follow to transform our lives and the lives of others for the better.[36:03] - The Purpose of Every CompanyHint: it's not making moneyIf you want to launch or grow an organization around purpose, ask yourself these questions— how is it making a difference? How is it altering the course of people's lives or moods in some positive way? As Patrick Lencioni says, ‘The purpose of every company is to improve the quality of human life in some way.' If you focus on that first, other important measurements like profits, growth, and more will follow— and you and your organization's members will be more fulfilled along the wayRESOURCES:[1:14] Purpose Point[1:22] Purpose Summit[13:54] The Power of Playing Offense[29:50] Writing of Marcus Buckingham[31:10] What Good Looks Like, Podcast by Davin SalvagnoFollow Davin:PurposePoint BioLinkedInInstagramFacebookBookFollow Paul:Playmakers PodcastThe Power of Playing OffenseLinkedInFacebookTwitterInstagramYoutubeSHOW PARTNER:The WHY InstituteAre you ready to find your ‘why'?

Why are you working? It's a simple question with a complex answer. It needs to be more than just making money or you won't last long in this business. Today's guest explains how to find the motivation to do great work by recognizing your power to create positive impacts. Key Takeaways Instead of asking customers what they want you to create for them, ask them how they want people to feel after seeing their videos. The work that you do should have purpose not just for your client, but for yourself. This is what is needed to keep you motivated to continue to produce great work. To identify your purpose in your work, think about who inspired you to do this work and why. Then look at your unique abilities, gifts, and talents and how you use those to serve others. About Davin Salvagno Davin Salvagno is the Founder & CEO of PurposePoint, the author of Finding Purpose at Work, and co-founder of The Purpose Summit.

The Impact You Have in the Work You Do Everything that you do has an impact. Whether it's big or small, you have an effect on other people. Davin talks about how we should be reflecting on what type of impact that is and learn to recognize it when it happens. He explains how following the “impact trail” shows you just how much bigger your influence is than you might have imagined. Approaching Experience as a Commodity Davin also explains how you can provide more for your clients by focusing on the experience that you provide and how you can transform what they do. Rather than relying purely on your products and services, emphasizing how you make them feel will often be enough to create loyal repeat clients. This type of approach will not only help your clients make a bigger impact, but it will also give you and your work more purpose. It will motivate you to keep working as you create positive impacts. As you utilize your talents and abilities to positively transform how other people feel, you'll find that there is no limit to the impact that you can create. What is a purpose point in your life?
