Episode Overview Jennifer Raams, coach with Practice Freedom U, joins Tracy to discuss the critical role of emotional intelligence (EQ) in healthcare practice management. This conversation explores how self-awareness, stress management, and intentional leadership create thriving practices where both providers and patients flourish. Key Highlights The Inner Game of Practice Management Stressed practitioners create stressed practices - it shows up in patient interactions, team dynamics, and business performance The importance of moving from reactive to responsive leadership through self-awareness How clinical excellence skills can become business liabilities without proper emotional regulation The Flourishing Zone Framework Green zone: flourishing state where leaders show up intentionally Red zone: defensive/attack mode that damages relationships and decision-making Frozen zone: low energy state that leads to stagnation and burnout Goal: Spend 80% of time in the green zone using practical tools and awareness Leadership as Nervous System Regulation Culture isn't built through workshops - it's created through how you show up moment by moment The power of presence: being able to "read the room" and respond appropriately to team needs Switching between clinical and business "hats" to maintain appropriate focus Practical EQ Tools Two key questions for fear-based thinking: "Where do I choose to put my attention?" and "Where do I have influence?" The power of curiosity over defensiveness in difficult situations Simple physical shifts (changing hands, standing/sitting) to interrupt triggered states Memorable Quotes "If you're not okay, your business is going to suffer, period." "Culture is not a workshop - it's how you show up every single moment." "The biggest stress contributor is when you feel you have no control and no influence." "We only have this second. What am I choosing intentionally to do now about it?" "When your people are flourishing, your business is thriving. There's no way around it." "Every skill, every behavior is learned - it's a skill you can learn and also unlearn." Key Takeaways Start with self-awareness: Recognize your triggers, stress levels, and default responses before trying to manage others Invest early in leadership development: Building culture, systems, and leadership teams takes time - don't wait until you're scaling Focus on what you can control: When overwhelmed, return to the basics of where you put your attention and where you have influence Make coaching a priority: Having a confidential sounding board accelerates growth and prevents costly mistakes Think beyond the clinical hat: Practice owners must develop the ability to shift between provider and CEO mindsets This episode emphasizes that sustainable practice success requires more than clinical expertise - it demands emotional intelligence, intentional leadership, and the courage to invest in personal development alongside business growth. Bio: Jennifer Raams is an entrepreneur and business coach who arrived in Hawaii with just a suitcase, a physical therapy diploma, and $2,000, ultimately building a thriving PT business that empowers leaders to scale with purpose.

CBQ - Courtney, does your creativity drive you crazy? Episode Summary In this episode, we explore the double-edged sword of creativity in the workplace. Courtney and Juan unpack how creativity can fuel innovation — but also drive us (and our teams) a little crazy. From perfectionism and procrastination to embracing imperfection and experimentation, we talk about finding that sweet spot where creative energy is productive, not paralyzing. Highlights [00:01:00] “We encourage creativity — but in the workplace, sometimes it's annoying… and sometimes we annoy ourselves.” [00:06:30] “You can be creative in ways you don't even realize — like building experiences, designing flows, or crafting how others interact with your work.” [00:12:10] “When you've built a process or flow and someone comes in to change it, it can feel like they're calling your baby ugly.” [00:18:45] “You don't have a paint-by-numbers path when you're creating something new — and that's part of the challenge.” [00:22:15] “If you're not driving yourself a little crazy with your creativity, you're probably not being that creative.” Follow Juan on LinkedIn Follow Courtney on LinkedIn Check out CareerBlindspot.com Follow on LinkedIn and Instagram → Your listening perspective matters - 5 min survey.

Paul Turley, Senior Director Ireland at ServiceNow, discusses the role of AI in customer service and emphasises the importance of combining artificial intelligence (AI) with emotional intelligence (EQ) Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping the landscape of customer service, but a fundamental challenge persists: fulfilling the consumer desire for both rapid service and authentic human understanding. While Gartner predicts generative AI adoption will soar to 80% this year, true success hinges on understanding the customer. According to industry research, most (84%) of business leaders agree that consumers have higher expectations for service now than in the past. To close the gap between investment and impact, AI must enhance, not just automate, customer service. As organisations race to implement AI in customer experience (CX), they're at an inflection point. They can create strong and enduring relationships if customers enjoy AI support services. However, hard-earned brand loyalty is at risk if customers dislike these services. This means it is crucial to understand and cater to CX preferences, shaping truly customer-centric strategies. The future of customer relationships = AI + EQ Consumers no longer just want AI that gets the job done; they want AI that understands them, incorporating a level of emotional intelligence (EQ). This means that AI should be able to interpret and respond to human emotions, such as understanding when a customer is upset and responding appropriately. As our annual Consumer Voice Report 2025 confirmed, people have long seen AI-powered chatbots as efficient but emotionless. In Ireland, more than two-thirds (68%) of consumers say they fail to understand emotional cues, often missing tone, urgency, or frustration. Still, expectations are evolving. In line with the broader Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, 65% of consumers in Ireland believe AI will be able to detect emotions within the next 12 months. Put simply, consumers expect AI to streamline interactions, anticipate their needs, and complement human agents. Companies that successfully integrate AI with human-driven customer service will not only improve efficiency but also deliver a more intuitive, empathetic, and seamless experience, building stronger and more trusted customer relationships. High stakes, low trust: the AI trust gap People embrace AI for its speed and convenience in low-stakes tasks, but in emotionally charged situations, they expect AI to work alongside humans, not replace them. As AI's capabilities continue to expand, many people will reevaluate the trust they place in this technology, even for future use cases they cannot yet envision. Some tasks will always require human oversight, and AI's role is not to supplant human judgment but to support it in the right contexts. The next stage of adoption involves identifying those conditions while expanding the understanding of its potential, with a focus on governance, reliability, and risk management. As the opportunities for AI grow, businesses have a crucial window to close the trust gap and position AI as a reliable tool, not just for today's known applications but for the many possibilities ahead. The customer paradox - what we value in humans, we criticise in AI (and vice versa) Consumers want speed, yet will opt for human-led interaction. They want accuracy and seamless continuity, but will shy away from AI-led services. In short, what consumers want from their customer service does not align with their channel preferences, which creates a fundamental paradox. However, regardless of the scenario, the key to resolving this contradiction lies in a proactive AI-powered service. The best customer service is invisible: no waiting, no repetition, no friction. Younger, on-demand consumers already anticipate this - for example, today's buyers rarely visit in-store for device support. Where this was once commonplace, they now expect devices to update, troubleshoot, a...

In this episode, Pascal sits down with Brian Brault, a leadership development expert who runs programs at MIT with the Entrepreneurs Organization, to explore how leadership has fundamentally evolved in our rapidly changing world. Brian shares insights on the shift from traditional “smartest person in the room” leadership to emotionally intelligent, authentic leadership that prioritizes building teams and genuinely caring for people. The conversation delves into the fascinating duality modern leaders face: being vulnerable and empathetic with human teams while maintaining strict control and boundaries when managing AI agents and systems. Brian emphasizes the critical difference between “being vulnerable” and “leading with vulnerability,” explaining how authentic leaders can acknowledge uncertainty while still providing direction and commitment. The discussion covers the future of organizational structures, the continuing importance of middle management despite Silicon Valley trends, and practical advice for leaders navigating the “messy middle” of technological disruption. Brian concludes with actionable guidance for emerging and established leaders looking to adapt their leadership style, including the power of mentorship and leveraging personal strengths rather than focusing on weaknesses.Timestamps:00:00 Introduction and Leadership Evolution01:10 The Shift from IQ to EQ in Leadership04:00 Trust, Authenticity, and Stakeholder Balance05:50 The AI Leadership Paradox: Humans vs Machines09:17 Data Accuracy and Decision-Making in the AI Era11:35 Outdated vs Essential Leadership Skills12:22 Brian's Story: Learning to Lead Without All the Answers16:17 Creating Organizations of Leaders, Not Followers17:44 Leading Into the Unknown and Career Transitions21:48 Building Empowered Teams and Strategic Clarity22:15 The Future of Organizational Structure and Middle Management26:24 Defining Vulnerable vs Leading with Vulnerability28:57 Practical Advice for Adapting Leadership Style33:40 Where to Find Brian and Legacy of Significance↗ Brian's company: Legacy of Significance↗ Connect with Brian on LinkedIn

What makes a vocal feel perfectly placed… or totally disconnected?This week, we're getting way past plugin chains and diving into the real work of vocal mixing: context. We're talking about how to make vocals live in a mix, not just sit on top of it. Because getting a vocal to shine isn't just about EQ moves - it's about storytelling, space, and knowing who gets the spotlight in each moment.We explore how we mix vocals completely differently - yet still aim for the same emotional clarity - and even find ourselves (gasp) passionately disagreeing about Vampire Weekend.Discover:Why the instrumental is the first thing we fix when vocals don't feel rightThe “lead vocal vs. background vocal” question we think is kind of a trapThe one question Carl asks in every section of every songWhen to make vocals felt not heard (and how that changes your mix decisions)Why we don't always high-pass vocals—and what we do insteadThe subtle sidechain trick that helps your vocals breathe without boosting themWhen sharing reverbs between vocals and instruments makes your mix snap togetherThe difference between using reverb for space vs. characterCarl's favorite compressor to kill backing vocal transients (in a good way)What mixing has to do with stage plays, ransom letters, and emotional punchBen and Carl's Weekly Inspiration Playlist - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1IpnxDVoTY44JBV1j19H4h?si=0f80e020d8ae497eLA Wildfire Relief:Musicares - https://donor.musicares.org/page/lafirereliefWAMTN - https://give.wearemovingtheneedle.org/campaign/654724/donateLearn more about StudioLand - https://www.welcometostudioland.com/a/2147995182/bmyFf8p5Download our free guide: "The Future-Proof Mixing Engineer: 8 Essential Skills for 2024 and Beyond" - https://mpe-ebook.benwallick.com/future-proof-mixingConnect with us:Secret Sonics - https://www.instagram.com/secretsonicsBen - https://www.instagram.com/benwallickmusic/Carl - https://www.instagram.com/carlbahner/Learn more:https://www.benwallick.com/https://www.carlbahner.com/This episode with edited by Gavi Kutliroff - https://www.instagram.com/pleasant_peasant_music/

How do you grab the attention of the smartest person in the room and introduce an idea that could fundamentally change their approach to leadership? In this insightful episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Gina Catalano, President of Central Forza Group and author of The Leadership Wake Up Call, joins Bill Sherman to discuss her pioneering work in developing emotional intelligence (EQ) for surgeon leaders—a skill set largely overlooked in traditional medical training. Gina shares how her journey from managing medical device teams in Fortune 500 healthcare organizations led her to recognize a critical gap: Surgeons possess extraordinary technical skills but often lack training in emotional intelligence. Her unique insight is transforming how surgeons engage with patients, teams, and even mitigate malpractice risks. She explains the compelling data behind EQ's impact, highlighting research correlating higher EQ among surgeons with lower malpractice claims. Gina also details her groundbreaking project with Duke University's general surgery residency, where she's building a curriculum to instill essential EQ skills early in surgical training. Listeners will learn how Gina's personal experiences and keen observations evolved into a compelling speaking and writing career, all centered around equipping elite performers with the "power skills" needed for true leadership success. This episode isn't just about developing better surgeon leaders—it's about creating profound, measurable changes that enhance patient care and team performance. Three Key Takeaways: • Emotional intelligence is critical for elite performance — Especially in high-pressure fields like surgery, EQ impacts malpractice rates, team dynamics, and patient outcomes. • Thought leadership bridges knowledge gaps — Introducing EQ to surgeon leaders requires translating soft skills into evidence-based, practical tools that resonate with data-driven professionals. • Early intervention creates lasting change — Embedding emotional intelligence training into medical residency programs can shape more effective leaders from the start. If this episode got you thinking about the power of emotional intelligence in high-performance environments, you'll want to keep going with our conversation with David Wood: The Effects of Soft Skills in Thought Leadership. Both episodes tackle a common challenge—how to introduce and scale “soft skills” like EQ in expert-driven fields where they're often undervalued. Gina Catalano and David Wood each show that these so-called soft skills are actually mission-critical for leadership, trust-building, and long-term success. Listen now and discover how soft skills can create hard results.
Ever had someone say, “This mix just needs a little more warmth,” and wondered what that actually means? Or maybe you've tried to get that rich, analog vibe in your digital mix and ended up with something that just sounded... dull? In this cozy, mojo-filled episode of Inside the Recording Studio, Chris and Jody break down the art (and science) of getting warmth in your mixes—from the tools they trust to the techniques they use every day. We're talking about that sonic something that makes a track feel full, smooth, and alive—without losing clarity.

In this episode: Microphones and preamps that naturally add warmth before you ever touch a plugin Favorite plugins and analog emulations for tape saturation, tube-style EQ, and transformer character Techniques to create warmth without sacrificing clarity or space Why “mojo” matters, and how to capture it in both analog and digital workflows Common myths about warmth—busted by Chris and Jody's real-world experience Plus, this week's Friday Finds delivers more audio goodies to fuel your obsession—and yes, there's the usual dose of nonsense we all secretly love.

Welcome to Spirit of EQ! I'm Eric Pennington, and today I want to talk about one of the worst investments we can make—worry. If you're like me, you know how easy it is to pour your time, energy, and even your heart and soul into worrying, even though it rarely brings anything positive in return. In this episode, I'll share some personal experiences from my time in the corporate world, and how worry became an all-too-familiar companion—one that often operated in the background, quietly eroding my peace and sometimes even affecting my relationships.I'll walk you through the lessons I've learned about the impact of chronic worry and, more importantly, how developing emotional intelligence (EQ) helped me start traveling lighter. Together, we'll look at practical ways to separate what we're actually responsible for from what's beyond our control and discuss how you can build healthier thought patterns that serve you better. If you've ever gotten stuck in those endless cycles of “what if,” you're not alone. Join me for an honest conversation about worry and discover some steps that could help you find more calm and clarity in your own life.Here are a few key takeaways I share:Focus on Responsibility & Control: Narrow your focus to what you're truly responsible for and what you actually have control over. Letting go of unwarranted worries is liberating and allows real growth.Emotional Intelligence is Key: Recognizing how your thoughts drive emotions—and learning to manage that process—is a skill anyone can build. EQ helps us break the cycle of worry and move forward with intention.Inventory Your Worries: Take time to honestly assess how much of your day is spent worrying—no judgment, just reflection. This awareness is the first step toward shifting your mindset and reducing unnecessary stress.Key Moments00:00 Corporate Merger Anxiety05:49 Learning to Let Go09:01 Emotional Intelligence and Personal Growth13:41 Evaluating and Adapting Thought Patterns15:48 Finding the Right Support PathSpirit of EQ In each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.
