In today's episode, Nick is thrilled to introduce a truly inspiring guest, Mauricio, a talented filmmaker with whom he's shares an intrinsic connection that transcends the typical creative bond. Mauricio and Nick first crossed paths on the film festival circuit, and we've been kindred spirits ever since. In this conversation, Mauricio opens up about his journey from growing up in Venezuela to making waves in the film industry here in the U.S. He shares the challenges he faced as a young, imaginative boy seeking solace in his creativity amidst bullying and isolation and how these experiences helped shape his path as an artist. We dig into the process of pursuing an artistic career, embracing vulnerability, and navigating the ups and downs of being a queer creator. Mauricio's journey is a testament to resilience and the power of staying true to one's vision, and he's here to inspire you to take that leap, follow your creative dreams, and maybe even make your very own film. So, listen in for a truly heartfelt and fascinating conversation with Mauricio.

This imaginative ability became a cornerstone of his artistic endeavors, showcasing the potential of turning perceived isolation into a creative superpower.   Resilience and Determination: The path to pursuing one's passion is not always smooth. Mauricio's determination to succeed in the arts, despite the challenges he faced as an immigrant and a queer individual, serves as a powerful reminder that perseverance and belief in one's vision can overcome obstacles.   Authentic Storytelling: Transitioning from devised theater to film, Mauricio emphasizes the importance of telling personal and authentic stories.

Welcome to Part Two of our village series, where I'm diving even deeper into what it really takes to find your people. This episode is all about busting the myth that you need a perfect group to fit into—because guess what? You're not a jigsaw puzzle piece. We talk about why we're so quick to judge, how our personal values (and parenting ideals) shape who we connect with, and how to balance being picky with being open. I also share a bit about my own friendships—the ones that have lasted, the ones that faded, and what I've learned along the way. If you're navigating motherhood without a ride-or-die, or just trying to figure out how to make real friends in this messy season, this one's for you.Timestamps:(00:02:28) Embracing Vulnerability for Building Adult Friendships(00:04:20) Navigating Social Awkwardness Without Alcohol(00:08:03) Embracing Vulnerability for Connection and Belonging⁠Jamie's Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Oh Crap!

ABOUT THIS EPISODE (+ scroll for resources)

I'm so excited to welcome Jake Brownstein to Roadcase this week!! Jake plays shredding guitar for the band Eggy, which has been lighting up stages, and turning on fans with their unique brand of what I like to call “collaborative rock.”  Jake is a super thoughtful and humble artist, who seeks to find joy in the moment, and he talks to me about how being vulnerable and seeking to be true to oneself is the key to living authentically — in both the arts and in one's personal life. Together, we explore the origins of the band, and go deep into self-exploration and what it means to really make a difference in people's lives with music. This is a special interview with a unique artist, and Jake really brings it all for this amazing conversation.Show notes:For tour dates and more info on The Wood Brothers, click hereYou can find the book "Songwriters on Songwriting" here on Amazon-------------------------------Episode Chapters:00:00 Episode Intro with Host Josh Rosenberg04:20 Introduction to Eggy and Their Journey07:19 The Importance of Long-Lasting Relationships in Music10:18 Growing Up Together: The Band's Origins13:21 The Evolution of Eggy: From High School to Professional16:29 The Role of Covers in Eggy's Music19:31 The Business of Music: Balancing Passion and Professionalism22:09 Collaborative Spirit: The Dynamics of Playing Together25:23 Performing with Friends: The Connection with Dogs28:20 Playing Jerry Garcia's Guitar: A Special Experience39:24 Finding Your Voice Through Music41:37 The Evolution of Waiting Game44:09 Embracing Vulnerability in Performance46:37 The Pressure of Legacy and Life's Work53:10 Connecting with Fans and Community01:00:10 Honoring a Friend Through Music01:05:37 The Art of Jamming and Live Performance01:14:40 The Journey Ahead for Eggy01:14:34 Episode Outro and Wrap-up with Host Josh Rosenberg--------------------------------------------Follow Roadcase on Instagram here:  @RoadcasepodFor more information on Roadcase:https://linktr.ee/roadcasepod and https://www.roadcasepod.comOr contact Roadcase by email:  info@roadcasepod.comRoadcase theme music:  "Eugene (Instrumental)" by Waltzer

In this VERY personal episode of Tami Talks: Unscripted Healing, I open up about my new relationship—three months in and already pulling back layers I thought I'd healed. After 2.5 years of healing alone—separating from a past relationship, parenting, rebuilding, and reconnecting with my inner child—I was finally at a place of peace. Or so I thought. Then love showed up. Not the fairytale kind. The real kind. The kind that gently (and sometimes not-so-gently) holds up a mirror to the wounds I was still carrying. My abandonment wounds. My people-pleaser. The voice that still whispers, “You'll never be good enough. You are such a burden.” This episode is vulnerable and full of reminders that God and the Universe send us the exact people and moments we need—not to break us, but to help us break open. You'll hear how I learned to stop projecting my pain, take ownership of my healing in real-time, and finally understand the difference between being a burden…and being a gift. ✨ You are not too much. ✨ You are not broken. ✨ You are worthy of love that sees the real you—and stays!

In this episode of The Future of Teamwork, Dane sits down with Massimo Backus, author of Human First, Leader Second, and founder of Massimo Backus Leadership. Massimo shares his journey of discovering self-compassion after a humbling experience in leadership and how that shaped how he now approaches leadership with self-awareness and self-compassion. Massimo advocates for emotional fluency within teams. He argues that when teams can freely express emotions, the emotions pass more quickly, helping people make clearer, more thoughtful decisions. They also reflect on the evolution of leadership, noting how we've been conditioned by industrial-era mindsets to always strive for progress even though we're human. Listen to learn how self-compassion, accountability, and open dialogue can foster healthier, more productive workplaces.Key Takeaways:00:00 Introduction to the Future of Teamwork02:06 Massimo's Journey to Self-Compassion04:09 The Power of Self-Compassion in Leadership09:00 Implementing Self-Compassion in Teams19:45 Practical Tips for Team Check-Ins25:05 Embracing Vulnerability and Humanity26:47 The Evolution of Work and Social Contracts29:34 Self-Awareness and Self-Acceptance32:14 Challenges of Servant Leadership34:19 Personal Accountability in the Workplace41:17 The Importance of Transparency43:29 Developing Self-Compassion Skills46:49 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsResources: How 360 Feedback Transformed One Leader and What It Could Do for Youhttps://lead3r.com/enspira_podcast/the-future-of-teamwork-human-first-leader-second-fostering-self-compassion-in-the-workplace-with-massimo-backus/

During a recent retreat I led for my business coaching clients, we had the opportunity to do a deep dive into visibility avoidance.  We discussed this phenomenon that happens when we want to grow in new ways, but the prospect of heightened visibility holds us back.  Sometimes, when we take steps into higher visibility opportunities, we are excited by the outcomes.  But, shortly after the perceived win, we feel a sense of vulnerability that pulls us back to our pre-visibility zone of comfort, and we determine that pre-visibility space is the safer or more appropriate place for us to stay for the time being.   Visibility can be wildly uncomfortable.  It can bring up a lot of thoughts, feelings, and beliefs in which we create swirling narratives that are more harmful than helpful.  When we get stuck here, we stunt our own growth.  We shrink ourselves.  We play small.  We allow ourselves to tap into only a fraction of our full potential.   In this episode, we explore the concept of visibility avoidance and highlight the common underlying self-limiting beliefs that hinder your personal and professional growth. I talk through how specific thought patterns undermine behavior patterns, keeping you accepting less than the best for yourself.  Then, I give you simple steps for overcoming visibility avoidance that will allow you to strategically increase visibility through small steps over time, allowing you to reach those goals you've been dreaming of in a way that feels exciting and rewarding!  This episode will help you recognize the payoffs of stepping into your full potential when you do it in a way that feels safe and aligned with who you are and where you want to go.  Episode Highlights: 00:00 The Magic of Expansive Time 04:14 Understanding Visibility Avoidance 12:03 Overcoming Self-Limiting Beliefs 16:18 Strategies for Increasing Visibility 24:47 Embracing Vulnerability and Growth Links Mentioned: Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Have you convinced yourself that your protective armour keeps you safe when, in truth, it imprisons you and denies you genuine connection and growth?This episode explores how to choose openness over fear, authenticity over illusion, and freedom over self-imposed limitations.

In this episode of the Modern Man Podcast, host and guest Juan Espinosa delve into the importance of addressing pain directly and how it can lead to personal growth and resilience. Juan shares his journey from combat veteran to author and motivational speaker, emphasizing the lessons learned from pain and vulnerability. The conversation explores the balance between strength and vulnerability in modern masculinity, the role of pain in personal development, and practical steps men can take to embrace their emotions and seek help. Juan's message is clear: pain can be a powerful teacher, and by facing it, we can turn it into purpose and strength.   Takeaways Addressing pain directly is crucial for healing.

Pain can teach valuable life lessons. Modern masculinity includes empathy and emotional intelligence. Daily journaling can help process emotions. Building a supportive community is essential for men.
