Great talk with Dawn Riley, Former Mitch McConnell DC staffer, and George W. Bush staffer on why she left the Republican Party and has become a registered Independent. She worked for the most powerful Senate Republican first, and then was called back to DC to work for George W. Bush. Even before our conversation got to two great calls: one from another former McConnell staffer, and the other from another former Republican, Dawn was already talking about the "Big Tent" and the reasons why she so passionately had to put her country before her party.

Dawn Riley has done everything in the sailing world; from scraping by as a young sailor living in her van and making sandwiches to running an America’s Cup campaign. Along the way she has shattered a host of glass ceilings; Dawn was a part of the first all-female crew in the 89-90 Whitbread, the first full time female crew member on an America’s Cup boat and the only woman to head a Cup campaign. Truly a badass! Today she is the Executive Director of the Oakcliff Sailing Program, a unique school that is coaching future American sailors how to compete and win at the highest levels of the sport. Take a listen as Tyler and Carter talk to Dawn about her beginnings in the sport, breaking barriers and the future of American Sailing.
Right off the bat, we talk about Olympians, Americas cup winners, and a Crossfit games champion. The places Dawn brought me to were elite -- this time a fundraiser on Wall Street, the first time the New York Yacht Club, the next time her sailing facility for world-class athletes, Oak Cliff.Yet Dawn is as down to earth as anyone I've met -- scrappy, as she put it. She makes pickles for world-class athletes. She already reduces waste and tours composting facilities.So hear how someone like her, probably busier than you and I and responsible for people's hopes and dreams, takes on environmental challenges many people consider distracting. She makes it fun.On another note, I recommend learning to sail. You meet people like Dawn. Humans have been doing it for 7,000 years. In my case, it's brought everything flying did, of exploring the world, cultures, people, and so on.If you're think you're too busy to act on your environmental values, how many America's Cups have you won? Or led others to win? How many Olympians follow you?If you answered not as many as Dawn, maybe it will help you create in your life what Dawn created in hers.

Dawn Riley has sailed in 3 Americas cups, won around the world races, and led other teams. I wish you could see the context for our conversation. We're at the sailing center she runs to restart the elite level of American sailing.Before this conversation she sent me out to see Olympic medalists competing on the Long Island sound. Shortly after, they all came in for a barbecue -- Olympic medalists, a gold medalist, a Crossfit Games champion, and more.You'll hear these world-class athletes, trainers, organizers, and so one talking in the background over the course of the conversation. My top measure of leadership is who follows them. Dawn is surrounded by people who are themselves global leaders, and she is taking them to the next level.She leads athletes, business people, educators, parents, and more. I wish I could describe the force of nature she is in action. Her results speak for themselves. I hope this conversation shows the potential of leadership and cultural changeIf you didn't know, I met her because I'm learning to sail, which I'm doing to travel off North America without flying. Most people think of what they miss by giving something up, even to live by their values. What you replace it with matters more. When you replace something you devalue with something you value, you've improved your life.Sailing and meeting people like Dawn and her community are what others would fly to meet. When you live by your values -- that is, when you lead yourself with integrity -- you attract similar people. I guess if you live by "what I do doesn't matter," you'll also attract similar people. Your choice!Besides, I've spent far less money on sailing than on flying.What everyone says they don't have time for -- bothering with the environment -- Dawn does without a second thought. You'll hear in the conversation her visceral connection to the environment. I hope it rubs off. If as a world-class athlete, educator, and businesswoman, she can make stewardship an effortless part of her life, you probably can too.In the meantime, get out on a sailboat.
