This podcast is about failure. The kind that builds you and the kind that breaks you. I've failed both ways, and I know what it feels like to wear failure as your identity and what it feels like to turn it into resilience. Here, we'll talk about the difference between failing forward and failing backward. Failing backward is when you let excuses run the show, when you hide behind masks, lower your standards, or quit before the lesson shows up. It is when failure becomes your story instead of your training. Failing forward is different. It is when you own it, use it, and move. You see failure as feedback. You let it sharpen your values, build your resilience, and increase your capacity. It is not about perfection. It is about refusing to quit, taking the next rep, and turning every bruise into muscle.     Kate Hastings | Mental Health Coach

Failing Forward: Raising Resilient, Emotionally Smart Kids with Parenting Coach Ayanda Tetyana by Radio Islam

What happens when you put a university president who's weathered pandemics, launched massive campaigns, and chairs the Bruce Springsteen Archives in a room with great questions? Pure gold. In this episode, I sit down with Patrick Leahy, President of Monmouth University, for one of those conversations that reminds you why leadership stories matter.Patrick takes us through his incredible journey from being the youngest of six kids outside Baltimore to running a $200 million university. We dive into the mentor who changed everything by pushing him to apply to Georgetown (spoiler: he thought he'd never get in), the poetry class with the university president that shifted his entire career path, and those messy years when he tried business and finance before finding his true calling in higher education.But here's where it gets really interesting. Patrick shares what it was actually like stepping into the president's role just months before the pandemic hit, how he kept an entire campus community connected through weekly Zoom calls that people still don't want him to stop and the bold moves he's made to position Monmouth for the future. We're talking about partnerships with Hackensack Meridian for healthcare programs, building out film and TV production right as Netflix constructs their massive studio two miles away, and chairing the Bruce Springsteen Archives and Center for American Music.The conversation gets into the real stuff too. How AI is going to reshape education, why being someone others want to work with might be the most critical skill you can develop, and what it means to lead through uncertainty while staying true to your values. Patrick's energy is infectious when he discusses servant leadership, the importance of asking better questions, and how every twist in your career path ultimately serves you later.Patrick's story reminds us that the most successful leaders aren't those who follow predetermined paths, but those who remain open to possibility and aren't afraid to bet on themselves and others. It's a conversation that will leave you thinking differently about what's possible when you combine authentic leadership with strategic vision and the courage to act on both.00:00 – Welcome & Introduction 01:00 – Childhood & Early Leadership 05:45 – The Georgetown Pivot 10:30 – From Business to English Lit 14:00 – The Nonlinear Journey to Education 20:45 – First Presidency at Wilkes 26:30 – Leading Through a Pandemic 32:00 – Vision for Monmouth 37:00 – Netflix, Sports & Strategic Growth 41:30 – The Role of AI in Higher Ed 48:30 – Emotional Intelligence & Employability 50:00 – The Springsteen Archives 55:00 – Closing ReflectionsPatrick on Socials: IG: monmouthuniversity X: @PatrickFLeahy LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-patrick-f-leahy-ab873620 Youtube: @monmouthuniversity⁩Jon on Socials: IG: @thejonschultzpodcast X: @JonSchultzPod LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/the-jon-schultz-podcast www.jonschultz.com

In this inspiring episode, Tina Tower sits down with the magnetic and passionate Amber McCue—entrepreneur, strategist, and founder of AmberMcCue.com. From becoming a single mom at 18 to scaling multiple multimillion-dollar companies across continents, Amber's story is a masterclass in designing a business (and life) built around true freedom and flexibility. Key Topics Covered:  Designing a Business for Freedom and Flexibility Amber McCue strategically built her businesses to allow for location independence, anticipating her husband's career might take them internationally. This intention shaped everything from systems to delegating tasks. Building Multimillion Dollar Companies from Scratch Amber shared her journey from single motherhood at 18 to owning several companies and running them from anywhere in the world. Her experience demonstrates it's possible to build scalable, successful companies while prioritizing family and personal time. Embracing the Modern CEO Mindset Amber introduced her “Modern CEO Method”—a framework for running businesses that don't require the founder to be "always on," making them more sustainable. The shift from solopreneur to CEO is not just about business growth but about cultivating freedom for yourself. Efficient Time Management: The Power of Boundaries Amber works 20–24 hours a week, rarely more, thanks to clear boundaries and prioritization. She emphasized the discipline to stick to time constraints, only focusing on tasks that drive results and align with personal and business goals. Delegation and Letting Go Identifying tasks to delegate or automate—often starting with administrative work—was crucial for Amber. She encouraged other entrepreneurs to calculate what only they can do versus what can be handed off, freeing up time and reducing business bottlenecks. Personal Development and Mindset Shifts The entrepreneurial journey is deeply personal; Amber highlighted the importance of dealing with guilt around working less, managing other people's judgments, and having the confidence to do things differently from corporate norms. Failing Forward and Scenario Planning Both Amber and Tina discussed the inevitability of failure in business. Amber recommends using visualization and scenario planning to make failure less daunting, so you're emotionally and strategically prepared for setbacks. The Ripple Effect of Empowered Women Empowering women to own successful businesses has a powerful ripple effect, benefiting families and communities. Both Amber and Tina are passionate about supporting women to step into confident CEO roles and create generational change. Practical Tips for Growth Start delegating small, with tasks that support revenue-generating activities. As the business grows, incrementally add support, and always make sure your investments in help match your capacity. Community, Planning, and Events Amber runs the annual “Plan A Thon” event to help entrepreneurs plan and celebrate their businesses. She highlighted the value of community and planning as pillars of ongoing business success. Amber McCue's story (and strategies) is a masterclass in intentional business design, prioritizing both growth and freedom. Building a business that fits your life—not the other way around—isn't just possible, it's essential.
