Kelsey describes the pride she feels watching employees embody these values not only at work but in their personal lives, reinforcing the power of a values-first culture. Leadership Principles and Tech, AI, and the Human Touch in Logistics Empowerment Kelsey and Gene shift the conversation to today's evolving workplace and the rise of AI in logistics. While acknowledging industry layoffs and the anxiety surrounding automation, Kelsey stresses that technology should enhance human performance, not replace it. She believes logistics still thrives on relationships and personalized service, which machines cannot replicate. For Novex, AI is a tool, not the driver, and the company remains committed to keeping people at the heart of the business.

Why do so many people feel like they have to shrink at work? Why do smart, capable leaders still battle self-doubt, burnout, and the pressure to hide who they really are? And what would happen if you finally showed up as your full self—without fear, without armor, and without apology?In this powerful episode, we sit down with Claude Silver, the world's first Chief Heart Officer at VaynerX and a global voice for heart-centered leadership. Claude is on a mission to transform workplace culture and redefine what true leadership looks like. She partners with Gary Vaynerchuk to drive Vayner's people-first success, has earned Campaign US's Female Frontier Award and AdWeek's Changing the Game Award, and speaks to teams at Meta, Google, U.S. Government agencies, the Armed Forces, and audiences worldwide. Featured in The New York Times, Fast Company, Forbes, and The Wall Street Journal, she is also the author of Be Yourself at Work, a guide to replacing fear and conformity with authenticity and emotional courage.Through her lived wisdom and candid storytelling, Claude shows how embracing your humanity is not a liability—it's a leadership advantage. Get ready to rethink how you work, lead, connect, and show up every day.Quotes:"You are the CEO of your life. You are not here to live someone else's life or fit a mold—they don't want you to.""Empathy isn't me putting myself in your shoes; it's riding shotgun with you and asking, 'How can I support you?'""Consistency is the key. Showing up the same way, pretty much every day, is my greatest strength."Actionable Takeaways:Reflect on your authenticity: Ask yourself, “What is it costing me to not show up as my full self at work?” Identify one way you can bring more of your true self into your professional life this week.Practice intentional empathy: Reach out to a colleague or loved one, and instead of trying to solve their issue, simply ask, “How can I support you?” Focus on listening and understanding their unique experience.Set and communicate healthy boundaries: Define your start and end times for work, and communicate them clearly to empower yourself and model boundaries for others.Commit to self-awareness: Regularly journal or check in with yourself to recognize personal triggers and areas for growth. Consider identifying one habit or reaction you want to work on.Conclusion:Claude's message is a powerful reminder that the most impactful leaders aren't the ones who hide behind titles or toughness—they're the ones who lead with honesty, empathy, and heart. When you stop shrinking and start showing up as your true self, you create space for others to do the same. This episode challenges you to rethink how you lead, how you work, and who you're becoming. Your voice, your story, and your humanity are your greatest strengths—so bring them forward boldly.

Listen in this week as I sit down with Michelle Gienger, a seasoned practice manager at Village Veterinary Hospital, to talk all about the art of conducting effective employee surveys. Michelle shares her insights into how to gather valuable feedback from both vocal and reserved team members as well as how to implement that data without letting emotions get in the way. Michelle highlights the importance of building trust and creating a safe environment for employees to share their thoughts and ideas, explaining that she has found success in using a combination of anonymous surveys, live polls during staff meetings, and one-on-one conversations to get a well-rounded understanding of her team's needs and concerns. By introducing surveys gradually and making it clear that feedback will lead to actual change, Michelle has been able to overcome the initial hesitation some employees feel about speaking up, and she has learned the value of letting the team own the solutions rather than just presenting them with her own ideas. Balancing the serious, problem-solving surveys with more lighthearted, fun questions has helped keep Michelle's team engaged and invested in the process, and she stresses the importance of showing your human side as a manager - acknowledging your own mistakes and struggles, and using that vulnerability to connect with your staff, so whether you are managing a small team or a large organization, Michelle's insights offer a roadmap for creating a work environment with open communication and collaborative problem-solving.

In this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with Judith Corvin Blackburn, award-winning author, transpersonal psychotherapist, shamanic minister, and internationally known teacher, to explore what it means to live as a multidimensional being in our rapidly shifting world.Drawing from her books Empowering the Spirit and The 6th Dimension: The Ascension Journey, Judith shares how humanity is evolving from third-dimensional consciousness into fifth and sixth-dimensional awareness realms defined by unconditional love, unity consciousness, and creative co-creation.We discuss the following: What 5D and 6D consciousness actually mean and how to access these states in daily life.How the “world of forms” (6D) operates as a quantum blueprint — where thoughts, emotions, and intentions take shape before materializing in 3D reality.Why many of us are experiencing time differently and how to consciously collapse timelines through awareness and emotional clearing.The role of trauma, the emotional body, and DNA activation in awakening our higher potential.How to release polarity thinking, embody unity consciousness, and become a conscious creator of your life.Judith offers grounded wisdom from five decades of teaching and psychotherapy, bridging quantum science, spirituality, and psychology to help us navigate the global ascension process with compassion and clarity.Tune in to remember your multidimensional nature, reconnect with your heart, and begin co-creating from the higher frequencies of love, awareness, and form.Learn more about Judith at: empoweringthespirit.comIf this episode spoke to you: please share it, tag us @Gateways_To_Awakening, and leave a review on Apple Podcasts — it helps these conversations reach more people. For more from me: follow my writing on Substack (substack.com/@therealyasmeent), find me on Instagram @TheRealYasmeenT, or visit InnerKnowingSchool.com.Thank you to our sponsors, VastuFengShuiHarmony.com

In this episode of our podcast, we dive into Chapter Four of "Leaders Transform," focusing on the crucial theme of empowering and delegating to orchestrate high-performing teams. We explore the idea that true leadership is not about doing more ourselves but about empowering others to take the lead. I share insights on how effective delegation can transform your role from a controller to a catalyst, using a practical five-step delegation framework. This framework emphasizes the importance of clarity, autonomy, and support, allowing team members to thrive and innovate. We discuss the significant benefits of empowerment, including increased engagement, creativity, and resilience within teams. Through real-life examples, such as a case study involving a CTO in a tech firm, we illustrate how trust in delegation can lead to remarkable productivity increases and more time for strategic innovation. I also highlight the dangers of micromanagement, which stifles growth and creativity, and contrast it with the empowering culture that effective delegation fosters. We delve into the virtuous cycle of trust in delegation, emphasizing the need for leaders to resist the urge to micromanage and instead embrace healthy struggles and open communication. Additionally, I provide practical tools and activities, such as a delegation map and development plans, to help leaders redistribute responsibilities and foster growth within their teams. As we wrap up, I encourage listeners to reflect on their own delegation practices and consider how they can cultivate a culture of empowerment. Remember, leadership is about equipping others to lead and thrive, setting the stage for motivation and engagement in the next chapter.

Nathan Caldwell is the Bestselling Author, Thought Leader, and Speaker of Empowering Kindness. A lifelong performer-turned-leadership coach, Nathan's early career on stage taught him how guest-facing energy is created (and depleted) every shift. He later guided culture and leadership through multiple corporate acquisitions, evolving his research and writing into the book Empowering Kindness and the practice behind it. Empowering Kindness supports organizations with practical, science-backed frameworks that lift performance by building trust, clarity, and courage. In this interview, Nathan talks about Empowering Kindness, developing leaders, and beating the calendar. Empowering Kindness “Kindness takes strength, bravery, and wisdom to execute upon.” Nathan pushes kindness far beyond “being nice.” Drawing on research and lived experience, he frames kindness as a disciplined leadership choice: seeing others' needs (empathy), stepping into the gap despite discomfort (bravery), and applying the right response at the right time (wisdom). He cites studies showing that environments rich in kindness elevate wellbeing and performance, arguing that people are literally built to respond to good. Leaders operationalize this by defining what kindness looks like in specific roles, training for it, and equipping teams to deliver it consistently—not hoping people will “just be kind.” Instead of the tired “compliment sandwich,” Nathan recommends an “Oreo” culture: clearly state what “good” and “excellent” look like, and call them out often. Doing so deposits trust so that hard feedback is welcomed rather than resisted. When leaders are known for recognizing excellence, coaching moments land as invitations to rejoin that standard, not as gotchas. The outcome is a reinforcing loop of clarity → recognition → trust → growth. Developing Leaders “They must be great at filling people up with energy.” Borrowing from his performer background, Nathan describes the “energy lifecycle” of guest-facing roles: guests draw energy all day; if leaders only pull, teams burn out. Great leaders replenish through coaching, recognition, and practical support. He also normalizes the loneliness of leadership and urges leaders to build peer networks, learn continuously (books, webinars, podcasts), and identify personal recharge rituals. The goal isn't endless cheerleading; it's deliberate energy management so people can show up strong for guests and each other. Nathan's prescription is both organizational and personal. Organizations should create forums and rhythms where leaders learn together and hold one another accountable. Individually, leaders must notice depletion, own recovery, and return to the floor refueled. That self-awareness is a kindness to the team: a recharged leader is capable of the courageous conversations and steady presence that growth requires. Beating the Calendar “You have to beat the calendar. You have to win against the calendar. Intentionality is the only way to do it.” Seasonality and turnover can't be excuses. Nathan warns against hoping people “pick up” experience during the busy months; that's how issues get swept under the rug until they become trip hazards. Instead, map the precise competencies leaders need (e.g., handling difficult conversations), then schedule training, role-plays, and practice reps before peak season. Treat these as must-run plays, not nice-to-haves. When intentionality leads, teams meet higher guest expectations without burning out. His approach centers on earlier, braver, better-prepared conversations. Define likely scenarios, script first lines, practice aloud, and debrief. Pair this with the “Oreo” culture so accountability sits inside an environment saturated with examples of “what right looks like.” The payoff: fewer surprises, faster course-corrections, and a leadership bench that returns each season stronger than it left.

“Hard to get a customer — but once you have that customer, sell them something else.” — Elie Y. Katz, Founder, President & CEO, National Retail Solutions (NRS) In this Technology Reseller News podcast, Doug Green, Publisher of TR Publications, speaks with Elie Y. Katz, CEO of National Retail Solutions (NRS), about how NRS is helping small businesses compete with national chains — and why telecom resellers and MSPs are perfectly positioned to benefit from a new wave of retail technology opportunities. NRS, a division of IDT, began as a mission to modernize small, independent convenience stores through affordable, easy-to-use point-of-sale (POS) systems. A decade later, NRS has more than 38,000 units deployed nationwide, helping merchants streamline sales, manage operations, and now — expand digitally through DoorDash and Grubhub integrations. What started as a POS platform has evolved into a full suite of business services — including NRSPay for transparent, no-contract credit card processing, NRS Purple Payroll for affordable payroll solutions, and cash advance programs that help small businesses stay liquid and grow. Katz is now calling on telecom resellers and channel partners to leverage their trusted customer relationships and add new, high-margin offerings. “Every one of your customers needs credit card processing, payroll, or better cash flow. We make it simple, transparent, and profitable — for you and them,” he explained. With NRS, partners can expand beyond telecom into broader small-business enablement — reaching industries from convenience stores and retailers to medical, dental, legal, and service-based businesses. “The hardest part of sales is building trust. Our resellers already have that trust — now it's time to build on it,” Katz added. To learn more about partnership opportunities, visit SellNRS.com or explore NRS solutions at NRSPlus.com.

Michael Dominguez joins Dr. Sandie Morgan as they explore how the hospitality industry can move beyond discomfort to become a powerful force in preventing human trafficking through intentional cultural change and staff empowerment. Michael Dominguez Michael Dominguez is the President and CEO of Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI), where he leads a global sales organization of nearly 80 professionals across 26 offices worldwide, serving as a trusted partner for meeting and event professionals seeking the best independent luxury properties and experiences. With over 30 years of experience in luxury meetings and events, Michael holds the Certified Hospitality Sales Executive (CHSE) credential and has earned multiple accolades for his leadership. He is an active and influential member of several industry associations, including serving as Past Chairman of Meeting Professionals International's (MPI) International Board and co-chairing Meetings Mean Business. Michael has been recognized among the "Top 25 Most Influential People in the Meetings Industry" and "50 Most Influential Hispanics in the U.S." In 2025, he received the ASAE Global Association Visionary Award. Under his leadership, ALHI has become a leader in anti-trafficking efforts within the hospitality industry, earning the Freedom Award for their commitment to this cause. Key Points The hospitality industry lost critical ground during the pandemic when hotels shifted to mobile check-in and bypassed front desks, which had been a primary checkpoint for identifying potential trafficking situations. Training hotel staff to recognize trafficking signs includes looking for unusual requests like multiple room keys, excessive towels and linens, extended "do not disturb" signs beyond 24 hours, and implementing wellness checks within that timeframe. Major hotel brands and management companies are now required to participate in American Hotel Lodging Association's accredited training programs, though franchise owners and smaller independent properties remain gaps in universal coverage. Making people "uncomfortable for 10 minutes" at every opportunity is essential because the hospitality industry naturally avoids discussing difficult topics, yet this intentional discomfort drives cultural change and awareness. Personal storytelling that puts a human face to trafficking—such as sharing survivor Faith Ramos's story—creates deeper impact than statistics alone and motivates 80% of people to ask how they can help. The "pounding the rock" philosophy from the San Antonio Spurs—asking daily "are we better today than yesterday?"—provides a framework for sustained, incremental progress in anti-trafficking efforts across the industry. Collaboration is expanding beyond hotels to include clients, electrical companies adding hotline information to service trucks, and organizations like the Aruna Project that employ survivors, demonstrating how every sector can play a position in the broader movement. AI technology offers hope for identifying trafficking patterns by analyzing unusual service requests and alerting staff to abnormal frequency of activities that might otherwise go unnoticed in large hotels.

[00:00:06] Delaney Mininger: Every hotel is either part of the prevention network or a gap that traffickers exploit. And the signs are there, multiple room keys, extra towels, privacy signs that are up for days. And when COVID removed their front desk check-in, they lost their most important checkpoint. [00:00:22] Leaders like Michael are showing us how to rebuild it and make it stronger. Hi, I'm Delaney Menninger,
