Like most things in life, our paths back from an injury or illness are unique to ourselves. While the physical issues may feel like a burden during the experience, it's possible to shift your thinking to find silver linings and even valuable lessons. Mindy was a dancer who tore her calf muscle and had to give up the thing she loved. She found a way forward by finding a new way to use her body knowledge, transposing it into a new career. In another example, Kari calls her brain tumor the best case of bad luck because the tumor was completely benign, albeit huge. She did a lot of reflection during her recovery and made some decisions about how she wanted to live her life differently. Guest ResourcesFind Mindy on Facebook

We've all been to one: loud music, people huddled in clicks, and little to no guidance from the host. I'm talking about poorly run networking events. The kind of events that spike the anxiety of us introverts and solo attendees.But nobody wants to throw a bad event. The host wants to make sure everyone is having a good time and leaves having made meaningful connections. The problem is that nobody taught us how to throw a great networking party.That was until Nick Gray wrote The 2-Hour Cocktail Party, a step-by-step handbook that teaches you how to build big relationships by hosting small gatherings.Nick is a firm believer that hosting these simple, lightweight gatherings will accelerate your network. And he's given us the playbook for how to do just that.In this conversation, we cover how to make sure people show up, 4 secrets for hosting a great event, and how to politely kick people out at the end of your party. Nick also gives me an answer for the perfect number of attendees and the best day of the week to host your networking party.And actually, since this recording, I've been to two cocktail parties that used Nick's book to host their event, and they have both been far superior to the typical networking events. But they weren't flashy events with paid bartenders, catering, and a DJ, no they were well-run events and a great use of my time. I met a lot of incredible people and left feeling excited to continue those conversations.If you want to expand your network and know how to throw a simple yet amazing networking event, this is the episode for you.Key Takeaways:Why hosting consistent, small gatherings is the ultimate networking toolNICK: 4 secrets for hosting a great eventThe importance of name tags even when you know everyone at the eventHow to run icebreakers and an easy example to use at your eventWhy you shouldn't host dinner partiesThe perfect number of attendees to haveHow to politely kick people outThe perfect day of the week to host your networking partyNick's recommendation for event-hosting platformsHow to ensure people show up to your partyWhen to send and what to include in your reminder communicationMentions:Nick's event hosting platform recommendations: Partiful (https://partiful.com/) and Mixily (https://www.mixily.com/)More of Nick:The 2-Hour Cocktail Party: How to Build Big Relationships with Small Gatherings: https://www.amazon.com/2-Hour-Cocktail-Party-Relationships-Gatherings-ebook/dp/B0B2KW6T7JTwitter: https://twitter.com/nickgraynewsMore of The Struggle is Real:Find show notes and more at https://www.tsirpodcast.com/Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/tsirpod/

Imagine waking up with absolutely no memories. That was the reality for my sister, Bethany Marshall Holden, when she was 17 years old.

Last year, in Sept 2021 it was announced that Intuit would acquire Mailchimp for a reported $12BN. There are so many things to love about the Mailchimp journey to this point. First, Mailchimp was founded as the result of a side project of a design agency Ben and his co-founder, Dan, used to run. Second, Mailchimp is and has always been based in Atalanta, eschewing the notion you have to be in SF or NYC to build a massive business. Then third, they never raised venture funding for the business all the way until their $12BN acquisition. Ben led Mailchimp to over 1,200 employees and millions of global users. In Today's Episode with Ben Chestnut We Discuss: 1. From Mama's Kitchen to the Smell of Business and Founding Mailchimp: How did Ben turn a mediocre agency into the founding of Mailchimp? What was the a-ha moment? At what stage of the business did Ben quit the agency and go all in on Mailchimp? What sign did he need that Mailchimp had true product-market fit? When Ben's mother died, he bought every flower in the local town to commemorate her. How did Ben's mother impact the type of father and husband he is today? How did she impact the way that he led Mailchimp as CEO? Ben's fishing trips with his father played a big role in his early years, what were the single biggest lessons for Ben from his fishing trips with his father? 2. Ben Chestnut: The Leader: How does Ben define the term "high performance" in leadership? What does Ben mean when he says "the secret to happiness is to stay in your lane"? Why would Ben describe himself as the "leader of the misfits"? How did that early experience and labeling impact both the people he hired and the culture he created at Mailchimp? What does Ben mean when he says he used to have a "hands off, eyes off" leadership style? What have been the single biggest drivers in his development as a leader? 3. Ben Chestnut: The Person: Relationship to Money: How does Ben reflect on his relationship to money? How has it changed over time? Why does Ben still to this day buy lottery tickets with his wife? Conquering Fatherhood: What does being a great father to Ben mean? How does Ben attempt to instil the same work ethic and drive when his children are born into immense wealth? The secret to Marriage: What does Ben believe is the core to a successful and thriving marriage? How does Ben view his role in the marriage? How has it changed over time? Potential Lost Identity: A founder's identity is so closely tied to their company, how did Ben manage the challenge of selling his company but retaining his identity? What did Ben learn about himself through many different acquisition processes? 4. Mailchimp: The Business: Why did Ben never raise venture money in the 21 year journey of Mailchimp? Why did Ben never accept any of the acquisition offers that came before Intuit? How did Ben motivate his team after they knew each acquisition offer was being turned down? Why did Ben decide the acquisition by Intuit was the right decision for the company? How does Ben view his role in the company now and moving forward?

Radical Cooperation (ft. Anita Castille & Michael Kahane)The transformative power of deep trust and collaborationGUEST BIOS:Anita Castille:Vice President of Human Resources for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, responsible for both domestic and global regions.Learn more about Anita: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-castille-b26b9b1/Michael Kahane:Southern Bureau Chief for the AIDS Healthcare Foundation, overseeing operations in the AHF's largest bureau— incorporating the southern United States, Caribbean, and Latin America.Learn more about Michael: https://www.aidshealth.org/about/leadership/CORE TOPICS + DETAILS:[6:25] -- Radical CooperationWhere teamwork meets trustEveryone has heard of cooperation. But radical cooperation takes cooperation to another level because it incorporates real trust. Where trust is, cooperation becomes more efficient, more seamless, and less problematic— because you know that when there's a problem, the people in your organization have your back, no matter how large or widespread the organization may be.[8:11] -- Building Trust Over TimeWhy radical cooperation is a process, not an eventThe trust that allows for maximum efficiency and effectiveness in an organization isn't a matter of making a decision— it's a continual commitment to grow relationships, build trust, and depend on one another in ways that can sometimes take us outside of our comfort zones. But while there is no endpoint, there is an ongoing promise of growth and exponential success.[11:54] -- Shared Goals: The Foundations of TrustEven when we disagree, a shared mission unites usHow do you build trust and cooperation? By developing a true belief that the people in your organization have the same end goal as you— to make your organization a success. When you can get to this place mentally, you can see any decision or opinion you disagree with through the prism of a difference of methodology, not ideology. Instead of thinking, ‘This person is trying to ruin this project,' you start with, ‘This person wants the same thing I do, even though we disagree on the path to get there.'[18:30] -- Tell the Whole Story‘Trust' and ‘Truth' have shared rootsAnita shares the importance of telling both sides of a story when sharing your thoughts with a superior or team member. Be transparent, and you'll ultimately be rewarded with the trust of everyone around you— your superiors, your employees, and your partners at every stage of the journey.[28:21] -- Find Joy in Your MissionAdvice for prospective hires anywhereA job is a job, but it can also be more than that. When you're able to find true joy in the mission of the organization you call your career, you'll be more fulfilled, more effective, and more willing to go the extra mile to generate successful outcomes.RESOURCES:AIDS Healthcare Foundation WebsiteFOLLOW:Follow Anita: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-castille-b26b9b1/Follow Michael: https://www.aidshealth.org/about/leadership/Follow Lauren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/laurenhogan3Follow AHFter Hours on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ahfterhours/ABOUT AHFTER HOURS:The AIDS Healthcare Foundation is the world's largest HIV/AIDS service organization, operating in 45 countries globally.

What do the words “employee experience” mean to you?Every employee, manager, or business owner likely has a different definition. It can relate to day-to-day experiences, recruitment, training and development, retention, and everything in between.It relates to every touchpoint a business has with an employee, from when they first join to whenever they decide to move on. The experience that they have in between those two points and even beyond carries an impact across the company. Even once they leave, their experience can still create ripples for a business, for example, through Glassdoor reviews.That's why it's so important to think about employee experience and employee culture, as both those things naturally go hand in hand.In this episode of The Learning Xchange, Schoox's Matthew Brown (VP of Learning and Brand Success) is joined by his colleague Karen Clem for a discussion on employee experience and the role of training in it.Listen to this episode to find out:Why the employee experience and company culture are so closely linkedHow the employee experience can affect customers and profitsThe role of learning and development in employee experienceWhy training should be continuous, not just an annual eventThe importance of engaging training programsIf you enjoyed this episode, please share what you love about The Learning Xchange by leaving us a rating and review!

Hello, Hello! In this episode, Chris and Nick talk with documentary filmmakers John Kirby and Libby Handros. They discuss their 25-year partnership and their upcoming documentary film cycle "Four Died Trying," which explores the major assassinations of the 1960s. The conversation covers topics such as state involvement in these assassinations, the lack of transparency around the investigations, and the importance of understanding history and promoting positive social change.Show Notes:John Kirby and Libby Handros discuss their 25-year partnership in documentary filmmaking, including their work on the festival favorite "The American Ruling Class" and their current project, "Four Died Trying."The guests share details about their interviews with over 130 people, including Bob Groden and the late Dick Gregory, for their "Four Died Trying" documentary series, which explores the assassinations of John F. Kennedy, Bobby Kennedy, Malcolm X, and Martin Luther King Jr.The group discusses the lack of transparency and documentation around the JFK and RFK assassinations, in contrast to the civil trials and FBI documents that have emerged for the Malcolm X and Martin Luther King Jr. assassinations.They explore the international implications of Malcolm X's work and the Kennedys' connections to Africa, as well as the role of the Warren Commission and Operation Gladio in obscuring the truth about these events.The conversation touches on the challenges of researching and discussing conspiracy theories, the importance of critical thinking and independent research, and the preference for conflict-driven narratives in documentaries.The guests share their insights on the power of nonviolent resistance, the legacy of Dick Gregory, and the need for more positive and uplifting stories in filmmaking.We also talk about:The attempted assassination of Donald Trump and the timing of the release of a documentary about the eventThe importance of the Warren Commission and its handling of the JFK assassination investigationThe concept of "patsies" in high-profile assassinations, such as Sirhan Sirhan in the RFK case and James Earl Ray in the MLK caseThe lack of a Truth and Reconciliation committee to address the assassinations of the 1960sThe influence of the military-industrial complex and big oil interests on the presidency, particularly in the case of Lyndon B.
