Podcast appearances and mentions of ferry tales

Hours after Russian troops marched toward Ukraine, nearly two dozen Filipino seafarers had to abandon ship and walked to safety for four hours in winter. This is their ferry tales.   Music by madirfan from Pixabay

Working the Wolfe Islander for 35 years, Brian Johnson has had the opportunity to hear a lot of stories about the Island, the Ferry and the people who have travelled back and forth.  If you're not familiar with the geography, Wolfe Island is the largest among the Thousand Islands, stuck right between Kingston, Ontario, and Cape Vincent, New York; and where Lake Ontario meets the St. Lawrence River.   Over the years, Brian has taken these tales and ‘put them to paper'. His stories have been included in several publications, and he is putting the finishing touches on a book that will focus on the water, and the people who travelled the water, around Wolfe Island.  Definitely a ‘raconteur par excellence', Captain Brian Johnson brings our history to life.  Hope you enjoy this conversation.

Radio anecdotes, Ferry Tales and Earnest conversations… The post Lu Kemp appeared first on Putting it Together.

Once upon a time, there were two young men who were simply obsessed with a series of movies fully intended and marketed towards children. One day, they decided to explore the world of fantasy and fairy tales within this magical universe. Around this time, the one writing the description for the episode got tired of this gimmick and sort of gave up on it. So... yeah! We talk about different fantasy races and creatures in the Carsverse, how fairy tales would have played out, and I feel bad for abandoning my theme for this description, so uh.... We all live happily ever after, I guess.

PLEASE NOTE: there is adult language in this episode. It's only 1-2 words, but if you are listening with little kids, you may want to use headphones.  Mitchell Kaneff is the 3rd generation Chairman and CEO of his family’s company, Arkay Packaging. If you’ve ever purchased lipstick, moisturizer, or fragrance in a box, the packaging was likely created by Arkay. They’ve been in business for more than 96 years. Today, they send high-end packaging all over the world from their three locations on the east coast. Mitchell assumed leadership of Arkay in 1996 when he was 30 years old. He gained notoriety 14 years later following the release of his book, Taking Over: Insider Tips from a Third Generation CEO. The book shares his personal story, including a letter he wrote to his father asking him leave the business, along with stories from other families who struggled through leadership transitions. The media headline at the time was Why I Fired My Father From the Family Business. In this episode, Mitchell and I talk about what it was like to fire his dad—someone he describes as both a seagull manager and a larger than life living legend in the packaging industry. Spoiler alert: Mitchell and his dad made it through the transition unscathed, in fact, they remain best friends today. We also discuss Mitchell’s leadership style, the keys to his success, and how he is introducing the family business to his teenage sons. Fun fact about Mitchell: He’s not only a fantastic leader, but also a rockstar! Outside of the office, he’s a bass player and vocalist with The Young Presidents. They are releasing their fourth album soon! Topics discussed in this episode: About Mitchell and Arkay Packaging (2:12) About the book (4:27) Working up the ranks (9:10) Preparing for leadership (12:35) Firing dad (and remaining best friends) (19:34) Mitch’s leadership style: Engage, empower, share (29:03) Monitoring vital signs (35:57) Outside specialists and consultants (41:57) Starting succession planning (49:46) Having hobbies as a leader (1:02:06) Health, wellness, and balance for leaders (1:08:36) How to find Mitchell (1:11:34) Bonus questions (1:13:07) Guest Bio: Mitchell Kaneff, author of Taking Over: Insider Tips from a Third- Generation CEO, is the Chairman/CEO of Arkay Packaging, a 96-year old, family–owned and operated leader in the folding carton industry. Under Mitchell’s direction, Arkay continues to be a market frontrunner in providing companies, such as Revlon/Elizabeth Arden, EsteeLauder, Procter & Gamble, and L’Oréal, with cutting-edge product packaging solutions. Mitchell’s appreciation for customer satisfaction and his understanding of the industry has solidified partnerships with key customers, earning Arkay “Supplier of the Year” awards several years running. In addition to locations in Hauppauge, New York and New York City, Arkay built a manufacturing facility in Roanoke, Virginia 22 years ago and in 2008 underwent an expansion to twice its size, a testament to leadership and the quality of the Arkay product. Mitchell lives in New York City with his twin 17-year old sons, Max and Josh, and his wife, Amy. Notable & Quotable: Succession planning for dummies didn’t exist, so I wrote a book. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations Some millennials look at a mountain and just want to go to the top. The expedition from the base to the top is all part of what you deserve when you get there. The journey makes you a strong and inspiring leader. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations I was coming into an organization where my dad was a living legend, an iconic figure in the industry and a pillar of confidence and strength. To step into his shoes was a challenge. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations  In God we trust, all others bring data. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations You can’t start succession planning early enough. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations Leadership is bringing out the best in the people around you. —Mitchell Kaneff #successfulgenerations Resources mentioned in this episode: Arkay Packaging The Young Presidents Taking Over by Mitchell Kaneff on Facebook YPO HBX CORe American Management Association: Fundamental of Finance for Accounting for Non-Financials Managers Books: Taking Over: Insider Tips from a Third Generation CEO by Mitchell Kaneff Good to Great by Jim Collins The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change by Stephen R.

Happy 20th episode of the Successful Generations podcast! Our listeners are in for a treat this week. We wanted a dynamo guest for this milestone episode and Adrienne Penta did not disappoint. Adrienne is a Senior Vice President and Executive Director of the Brown Brothers Harriman Center for Women & Wealth (CW&W)—the brainchild that she built from the ground up. Rooted in data regarding women and wealth, and guided by her personal experience (which she shares during our interview), Adrienne and her team at the CW&W support women as they create and manage wealth. They also produce a quarterly magazine called Women & Wealth that explores the intersection of family, wealth, and values. In this episode Adrienne and I talk about estate planning, inheritance, preparing children for wealth, the importance of clear values, communication, and transparency, and so much more. Adrienne shares a ton of great resources, which are linked below.

She provides women with the investment, planning and philanthropic resources they need to navigate transitions, help the next generation thrive and plan for the succession of privately-owned businesses. Prior to joining BBH in 2008, Adrienne practiced at the law firm of Choate, Hall & Stewart LLP in Boston. She received her JD from the University of Virginia School of Law and her BA from Johns Hopkins University. Follow Adrienne on Twitter @AdriennePenta   Notable & Quotable: Your estate plan is the last thing you ever get to say to the people you leave behind. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations The best advice I’ve ever received: There’s no big idea without a big ask. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations We need everyone at the table when we are making plans for the future. It’s important to tell the people affected by these plans why you made the decisions you did. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations I tell clients that they have the opportunity to sit with family to share what they are planning, why, and what legacy they want to leave. That is a real gift that we can give to the people who come after us. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Wealth is not something we have for its own sake. Money is a means to an end. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations 51 percent of personal wealth is controlled by women in the United States and this number is going to substantially rise in our lifetimes. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations 51 percent of high net worth women feel their advisors don’t understand them. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Advisors work for you...make sure that you are being treated like a client. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Conversations about money with kids should start early and happen often. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations 70 percent of all wealth transfers fail because of a lack of preparation of the heirs. We are missing communication and trust. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations You are the driver of the success of your family--money, wealth, and what it all means. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Not talking with adult children about wealth sends the message that you don’t have enough confidence in them or your relationship with them to have the conversation. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations 90 percent of families lose wealth within three generations. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Planning has two main part: the how and the why. The how is easy. Here are some questions to help you with the why:  Why have I chosen to structure my plan this way? What does this money mean to me? How do I think about where it came from? As a family, what does wealth mean to us? —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Success for the family is a communal goal not and individual one. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations 90 percent of our values come from our parents and grandparents. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations We can share values but express them differently. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations It’s not about money, investing, estate planning or taxes. It’s about what do we want to leave behind. —Adrienne Penta #successfulgenerations Resources mentioned in this episode: Brown Brothers Harriman BBH Center for Women & Wealth Women and Wealth Magazine Fall Issue (Love and Money) Center for Talent Innovation—Harnessing the Power of the Purse: Female Investors and Global Opportunities for Growth Preparing Heirs: Five Steps to a Successful Transition of Family Wealth and Values by Roy Williams A Wealth of Possibilities: Navigating Family, Money, and Legacy by Ellen Miley Perry Love and Money: A Life Guide to Financial Success by Jeff D.

For the past couple of years, I’ve been doing a lot of personal work, self-reflection, and goal-setting. As I’ve mentioned previously, I’m a big fan of Michael Hyatt, and one of the most powerful exercises that I’ve done with him is around limiting beliefs and liberating truths.   I like this definition of limiting beliefs from changingminds.org: “Limiting beliefs are those which constrain us in some way. Just by believing them, we do not think, do or say the things that they inhibit. And in doing so we impoverish our lives.” I also like the visual provided by this quote from Rosamund Stone Zander and Benjamin Zander, authors of The Art of Possibility: “Every story you tell yourself is based on a network of assumptions. Draw a different frame around the same set of circumstances and new pathways come into view.” From my perspective, identifying and understanding your limiting beliefs is absolutely fundamental to achieving your goals. If you have a goal that seems out of reach—no matter how big or small—maybe now is the time to take a closer look at what is standing in your way. I hope that sharing my experiences and guiding you through an exercise in this podcast episode will help reframe your beliefs and move you forward to achieve what’s in your heart. You’ve got this! Topics discussed in this episode: Intro to limiting beliefs (:45) What are limiting beliefs? (1:45) My personal experience with limiting beliefs (2:45) Limiting beliefs exercise (8:43) Step One: Write down your goals (9:00) Step Two: List your limiting beliefs (9:42) An example from my life (12:02) Step 3: Turning limiting beliefs into liberating truths (17:00) Step 4: Create affirmations that shut down limiting beliefs (19:35) Wrap up and resources (20:09) Notable & Quotable: A limiting belief is something in your mind that is standing in your way of achieving something else. —Ellie Frey Zagel #successfulgenerations Identifying and understanding your limiting beliefs is fundamental to achieving your goals. —Ellie Frey Zagel #successfulgenerations Resources mentioned in this episode: Reframing Limiting Beliefs Worksheet Changing Minds definition of limiting beliefs The Art of Possibility by Rosamund Zander and Benjamin Zander Michael Hyatt’s description of limiting beliefs Michael Hyatt’s Best Year Ever Right-click and "Save As" to download this episode to your computer.

Øystein was recently in Houston, and because our stars didn’t align, we weren’t able to record a new episode with him. (Øystein, come back anytime, buddy!) To make up for that, we give you this rerun.  Learn 100% more about the tuba in this episode than you’ve ever known! Norwegian tuba soloist and chamber musician Øystein Baadsvik is the only tuba virtuoso in the world to make a career exclusively as a soloist. He is also the only tuba player in the world to have a great story about touring with a punk band. He joins us all the way from Norway to tell us about this shadowy instrument: its size, its repertoire, and its fnugg.

From BCB..."http://bestofbcb.org/wu-091-bainbridge-public-library-events-in-december/ December at the Bainbridge Island Library begins with the First Friday Artwalk, Friday December 5th, featuring Dorothy Matthews' exquisite watercolors of Nutcracker images.  But that's only the beginning! On Saturday, December 6, from 11 am to noon, talented Bushwick Book Club musicians will perform original music inspired by Dickens' Christmas Carol. The Island Film Group will bring Jimmy Stewart's classic comedy, The Shop around the Corner, to the library at 7 pm on December 10th, and the Ferry Tales meeting on the 4:40 boat from Seattle December 11th will discuss Warmth of Other Suns, by Isabel Wilkerson.  Be sure to join them as they discuss this beautifully written chronicle of one of the great untold stories of American history: the decades-long migration of black citizens who fled the south for northern and western cities, in search of a better life. The Waterfront Book Group will meet Tuesday, December 16, at the Waterfront Park Community Center to discuss Lois Lowry's The Giver.  For a special pre-Christmas treat: on Tuesday December 23rd you can schedule a free half-hour appointment with human resources consultant and leadership coach Josy Koumans to review your resume, improve your interview techniques, or discuss your future career plans. All this and more -- including storytimes for babies, toddlers and preschoolers and the ever-popular Book-a-Computer-Trainer -- available for you this month at the Bainbridge Island Library: don't miss it! And a special note: the Library will be closed December 24th and 25th, and will close at 5 December 31st.  Happy Holidays from your Bainbridge Island Library!  Credits: BCB host and studio tech: Joanna Pyle; audio editor: Jon Coonan.
