Shaun delivers clear, actionable insight on how to train smarter, not harder—and how your body is your greatest golf asset when properly trained. Get your pencils ready and start listening.  P.S.

Shaun shares how military habits like structure and routine create consistency, build momentum, and ultimately forge a new identity—on or off the course. Mobility vs. flexibility. Know the difference. Flexibility is muscle length. Mobility is joint function. Most golfers confuse the two. Stability is strength. You can't build power without stability. Unilateral work like split squats and lunges balances your body and reduces swing faults. Power vs. speed training. Power is potential. Speed is expression. Both require different protocols in the gym—and both matter to golf. Low back pain? Look elsewhere. Most back pain isn't from the back itself—it's a consequence of limited mobility in the hips or thoracic spine. Fitness fuels mental energy. A fitter body reduces fatigue, improves focus, and boosts resilience—so you don't fall apart late in your round. Key Quotes: What was once impossible becomes inevitable. Small hinges swing big doors. Fitness is the gateway to personal development. Stability is strength. And strength is injury prevention. You can't outscore your body.

Michael Falls of Reveel & Jennifer Mitchell of GOAT Group talk about tariffs, network design, SKU analysis, carrier negotiation and decision intelligence.  IN THIS EPISODE WE DISCUSS:   [02.22] An introduction to Michael, his background, and what excites him about supply chain. “Work smarter, not harder – that's what I'm passionate about. There's great technology out there that shippers can leverage, but so many people are still working out of spreadsheets. That hasn't changed as rapidly in our industry as it has in others.” [03.49] An overview of Reveel, who they are, and what they do. “Our CEO always says that modeling is the hill we're going to die on. We have a lot of tools in our repertoire that are different to a lot of the other analytics tools on the market.” [04.36] An introduction to Jennifer, her background, and her company GOAT Group. [05.58] An overview of the current tariff landscape, and how businesses are approaching adaptability and cost impacts. “We're now in a period where shippers have a new normal, which is: we don't know what the future will hold, but we know we're going to have to adapt to change.” “Now there's a very public conversation around who absorbs the cost of tariffs. Tariffs are here to stay. The question is: are consumers going to pay for them, or are companies going to absorb the cost and use that as a competitive advantage?” [07.55] How tariffs have impacted GOAT Group, and why increased tariffs for China are driving up apparel costs and forcing companies to rethink their manufacturing locations. [09.07] From cost volatility to the impact of the unknown, the biggest negative impacts, driven by the current tariff landscape, for shippers. “It's ever-changing. The minute you make a decision to do something, it changes and you're back to square one.” [11.34] Network design and optimization, and why shippers need intelligence, agility, and a strategic command of their shipping network to manage current volatility. [14.28] How network design and optimization can help companies to design more efficient distribution strategies, what those strategies might look like, and the positive impact they can have for shippers. [15.16] How SKU profitability analysis can help businesses identify problem products and make more informed decisions on their portfolio. “There's much more that you can do with SKU level insights than just explore profitability.” [17.13] Why contract negotiations have changed, and how Reveel can help to simulate ‘what-if' scenarios and compare carrier performance so shippers can push for reductions or pivot. “You can't manage what you don't measure. So we empower our customers to measure all the KPIs that are going to impact their transportation spend.” “The duopoly is over!.. Carrier contract negotiation is becoming an ongoing activity.” [20.07] The importance of flexibility and expanding carrier options to reduce dependency, lower cost, and improve customer experience. “Flexibility is crucial… Customers expect more from delivery, they expect it faster, more personalized. The bigger carriers are very rigid in what they do and a lot of these emerging carriers have more flexibility, they're more customizable to your company.” [21.23] Why, when tariffs are out of our control, intelligence is the best defence, how companies can use intelligence to stay competitive, and why parcel spend management can be an organizations competitive advantage in an unpredictable global market. “There's so much noise. Carrier billing data has hundreds of elements, it's not normalized… Having a shipping intelligence platform helps arm you with the most important insights at a glance.” “A lot of shippers are just resigned to this belief that the carriers are going to do what the carriers are going to do, and we have to sit back and take it… But I would say that any shipper has between 5-30% of spend that's available to be eliminated.” [23.47] The ideal client for Reveel, and the types of clients they're currently onboarding most. [24.41] GOAT group's experience with onboarding and implementation with Reveel. [25.52] The biggest challenges GOAT Group were experiencing, why they chose to work with Reveel, and the benefits they see from their ongoing partnership. [27.38] In a constantly evolving market, what shippers might expect over the next few months. “The only thing we know for sure is that more change is coming!.. But the shippers that have the best data, the best data-driven insights, and the best technology are ultimately the ones that are going to come out ahead.” RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED:   Head over to Reveel's website now to find out more and discover how they could help you too.

Volvo's current XC90 launched almost a decade ago and was a pivotal piece of the brand's U.S. offerings. Unsurprisingly, the large, three-row crossover performed well for Volvo over the last decade. Despite the brand's pivot into electric vehicles, Volvo has given the second-generation XC90 another facelift to keep it relevant to customers. This extensive overhaul swaps sheet metal and interior pieces to give the XC90's relatively old bones a new, albeit familiar, look. Powering the updated XC90 is the same array of hybrid powertrains, with the B5 and B6 models opting for the mild-hybrid-assisted 2.0-liter I4 that generates 247 hp and 295 hp, respectively. Topping the chart is the plug-in hybrid T8 variant, that throws 455 hp to the wheels.On this episode of Quick Spin, host Wesley Wren and Autoweek executive editor Tom Murphy put the 2025 Volvo XC90 T8 through its paces. Wren takes you on a guided tour of the updated Volvo XC90 and highlights some of the new design elements and features. Later, Wren takes you along for a live drive review. Adding to these segments, Wren chats with Murphy about their experiences in different versions of the updated XC90, how the refreshed Volvo is performing in the marketplace, and more. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2025 Volvo XC90 special.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fundraising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D. sits down with philanthropic power couple Linn and Byron Braun, who offer a refreshing and candid look into the donor's mind. From third-grade campaign trail adventures to launching garden programs and anti-child abuse foundations, the Brauns' journey is a masterclass in giving with heart. They walk us through how their charitable spirit evolved, from separate individual passions to a shared mission of supporting a curated list of 10–12 nonprofits with intention and joy. Their golden rule? “Don't let your giving list get diluted, know your causes, and know them well.” Fundraisers, take notes: the Brauns emphasize the importance of doing your homework. When couples have distinct philanthropic interests, fundraisers need to pinpoint whose passion aligns with their mission. It's not just about knowing the organization's pitch, it's about building a relationship with the right person, be it Linn's green thumb at the YMCA or Byron's devotion to his church. They also advise fundraisers to understand when to back off, being bombarded with daily asks as business owners, they appreciate a respectful “our plate is full” response when it's truly not a fit. Flexibility and genuine connection are the real MVPs in major gifts fundraising, as shown through the Brauns' experience with Humane Fort Wayne. It took two years of relationship-building for the nonprofit to truly understand the Brauns' philanthropic heartbeat and co-create a niche initiative. What won them over? A stellar director, customized opportunities to support causes they care about, and authentic, consistent engagement, beyond the ask. “We don't want a lunch,” Byron jokes, “just a personal touch, maybe even a phone call.” The Brauns wrap up with sage advice on what not to do: don't pawn major donors off to assistants, don't ignore follow-up, and for heaven's sake, don't forget the personal connection. They stress that effective stewardship involves more than a thank-you email, it's about being seen, heard, and valued. As proactive donors, they often approach organizations themselves, but they're quick to note that meaningful engagement and tailored communication can turn a casual supporter into a lifelong benefactor. For fundraisers eyeing the big gifts, this episode is pure philanthropic gold.

Post-Gazette Steelers insiders Brian Batko and Ray Fittipaldo report from the second day of the team's minicamp at its South Side facility. They recap Arthur Smith's press conference. What did Smith have to say about the popular notion that he and Russell Wilson didn't get along late last season due to Smith not allowing his quarterback to change plays at the line of scrimmage? How does he plan to utilize new weapons like Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf, going so far as to say they didn't bring those guys in to run the wishbone? The guys tackle those questions, then take a deeper look at the offense in general. What will Rodgers' wide receivers look like behind Metcalf. Will Roman Wilson or Calvin Austin III take over that WR2 spot? Or will the Steelers add another receiver via free agency or trade, like Allen Lazard or Keenan Allen? Will the offensive line, including Troy Fautanu and Broderick Jones, be able to step up and protect the 41-year-old future Hall of Famer?

SEG Media Utah Jazz analyst Tim LaComb joined DJ & PK for his weekly visit to talk about the franchise and the NBA Finals.

Great leaders don't always have the answers, but they know how to ask the right questions. In this episode, executive coach Dave unpacks his 5 C's coaching framework and explains how it helps leaders stay focused, flexible, and impactful in every conversation. He also reveals why “curious humility” is the underrated superpower that separates great coaches from average managers. Highlights from the interview: 1. Five C's of coaching Dave explains his 5-part coaching framework that he developed to structure his coaching calls:  CapacityClarityCelebrationConversationCommitments This framework provides a consistent structure while allowing flexibility to adjust based on the client's needs. Listen to the 5-Min Systems Segment on my YouTube channel. 2. Avoiding tangents and staying focused He shares how the framework helps him keep coaching sessions focused on the most important issues, rather than getting sidetracked by clients wanting to just talk about all the positive things happening. The framework allows him to consistently steer the conversation back to the key priorities. 3. Flexibility within the framework He explains that he calls it a "framework" rather than a "system" to emphasize the flexibility it provides. The structure can be adjusted based on factors like the client's capacity on a given day, allowing more time for certain parts of the framework as needed. 4. Dave's background and path to coaching He shares how he was always a talkative kid who was told he "talks too much" on his report cards. This led him to study organizational communications in college and eventually get trained as an executive coach, before transitioning to full-time coaching work. 5. Coaching vs. managing He distinguishes between coaching, which is about asking powerful questions and holding space for the client to discover solutions, versus managing, which is more prescriptive and directive. He explains how leaders need to know when to coach versus when to manage, based on factors like time constraints and the employee's skills. 6. The power of curiosity and humility in leadership He emphasizes the importance of leaders cultivating "curious humility" - being genuinely curious to understand their team's perspectives, while also being humble enough to admit when they don't have all the answers. This creates an environment where team members feel empowered to provide feedback and dissenting views. Learn more about Dave Bates over at Paravelle. You can also connect with him on LinkedIn.

Craving freedom, flexibility, and a front-row seat to nature's wonders? Whether you're chasing sunsets or seeking spontaneous detours, RV vacationing can save you hundreds on lodging and dining costs. Discover five compelling reasons why vacationing in an RV might just be the ultimate way to explore the open road.  Links: View Bankrate's Summer Vacation Survey Check out Triangle's competitive RV Rates and low-rate auto loans Learn more about this Money Tip's sponsor: New England Royal Service Check out TCU University for financial education tips and resources!

Visit neroyal.com to learn more and show us a little love by mentioning this podcast when you reach out!  Now back to today's tip.   Summer is right around the corner which means you are probably planning your summer vacations with loved ones. Ditch the family vacation to the amusement parks this year and take the family on a road trip in a recreational vehicle or camper!     Here are 5 reasons to vacation in an RV:  1. Cost-effective travel. According to Bankrate's Summer Vacation Survey, 47% of Americans chose not to go on a summer vacation in 2024—65% citing affordability as the reason.  One of the biggest vacation costs is transportation, which includes airfare, car rental, parking fees, gas, etc. Now factor in the cost of a hotel room and food on your vacation, and the costs really add up.    When you vacation in an RV, your transportation and place to sleep are rolled into one which helps cut down on costs. Plus, RVs have small kitchen areas included to stock up on food staples before you begin your trip. Instead of eating out for every meal, you can cook some meals in your RV and lower your total vacation costs.     2. Flexibility. Gone are the days of booking a vacation based on the cheapest flights or hotels. RVs give you increased flexibility because when you are traveling and staying in your own mode of transportation, you are not locked down to specific dates and times for vacation.   There's also flexibility if something occurs and you need to delay your vacation by a week. You don't need to worry about changing flights or booking new accommodations because you are traveling in your own mode of transportation.   3. Bring Your Pets. Another pro of vacationing in an RV is being able to bring your pets along. Instead of asking your friends or family to take care of them, or even paying to have someone look after them, you can take them along as travel companions.   Not only is this a good choice for your finances, but it also provides peace of mind so you can spend your vacation relaxing instead of worrying about how your pets are doing without you.   4. Privacy and Comfort. Why would you want to squeeze into the middle seat of an airplane when an alternative is being able to stretch out in the sleeping area, sit in the dining area enjoying a meal or even using the private bathroom while traveling to your destination.     When it comes to sleeping, you have the security of having your own space which can help you feel safer than an AirBnB when in an unfamiliar place. Plus, you can tow your own car behind your RV; that way if you want to explore each destination a little deeper, you can do so in your own car and can avoid a rental car.   5. Bring Home with You Wherever You Go. Another benefit of vacationing in an RV is bringing and using what is most familiar to you. We've all had a terrible night stay at a hotel while on vacation because the pillow just wasn't right or the blanket was too rough. When you vacation in an RV, you can bring your own pillows and blankets (among other things) with you for those comforts of home.      RVs provide more storage space as well which means you aren't confined to just what you can pack in a suitcase. In addition to more clothes, shoes, and bedding, RVs offer the opportunity to bring other things you can use on your vacation.    Maybe you have bicycles or kayaks that you want to use when exploring your new destination; if so, you can bring these along with you when you have the space in an RV!  If you're ready to take the plunge and finance an RV or camper, check out Triangle Credit Union's competitive rates.

Let's talk about what it really means to lead with purpose—and still take care of yourself in the process. In this episode of Operation Be, I sit down with the powerhouse that is Monica Adams—a woman who's spent over 30 years making bold moves in the TV and radio world, and now, she's flipping the script with a morning show that's all about positivity, intention, and impact. We get into so much more than career highlights. We talk about what it takes to hold your own in male-dominated industries without losing your softness. We go deep into why kindness and integrity aren't weaknesses—they're your edge. We cover how the real work of staying grounded in a world that's always pulling you in a hundred directions. Monica shares how she's stayed organized, clear, and aligned—even in the messiest seasons. Her take on mental and physical health, and how they're non-negotiable for true success, is something every high-achiever needs to hear. If you've ever felt like you had to choose between being powerful or peaceful… ambitious or authentic… this conversation will meet you where you are. This one's for the women rewriting the rules. For the ones leading with heart, and refusing to shrink.

Can women take a career pause without losing their ambition—or themselves?Neha Ruch, founder of Mother Untitled – a platform dedicated to supporting women navigating career pauses and caregiving with clarity, confidence, and ambition – explores the deeply personal and often unspoken challenges modern mothers face today. Neha opens up about her own journey leaving a high-powered tech career to become a full-time parent—and how that decision sparked a redefinition of what success truly means. She shares the emotional complexity of motherhood, letting go of guilt around childcare and building a support system for your children, the importance of financial independence, and how career breaks can become a time of intentional personal growth rather than a step backward. Overall, she believes, investing in yourself is not selfish. RESOURCES: Learn more about The Power Pause by Neha Ruch: https://www.thepowerpause.com/CHAPTERS: 00:00 Navigating Hair Care and Personal Choices03:01 Balancing Work and Family Life05:49 Redefining Ambition and Career Pauses08:57 Financial Independence and Partnership Dynamics12:00 Intentional Growth During Career Pauses14:45 Quality vs. Quantity of Time with Kids23:00 The Importance of a Supportive Network for Children26:07 Navigating Guilt and Trust in Parenting28:57 Conversations Around Family Vision and Support31:52 Flexibility in Work: A Double-Edged Sword38:57 Redefining Success and Presence in ParentingLISTEN NOW: Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/get-well-better Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/get-well-betterYouTube: Or search “Get Well Better by The Lanby” on your favorite podcast platform!VISIT THE LANBY: Explore membership and learn more about The Lanby's functional medicine approach:https://www.thelanby.comFOLLOW THE LANBY ON SOCIAL: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thelanby TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thelanby LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thelanbySTAY IN THE KNOW: Subscribe to The Lanby newsletter for health tips, podcast drops, and expert insights: https://www.thelanby.com/newsletter

The Business of Therapy: Surviving Economic and Industry Disruptions Curt and Katie chat about how therapists can adapt to the changing business landscape of private practice, including fewer client inquiries, economic challenges, and increased competition. We share practical strategies for maintaining a sustainable therapy practice, improving marketing efforts, and building strong referral networks. Transcripts and additional information for this episode will be available at mtsgpodcast.com! In this podcast episode we discuss running a private practice during times of economic uncertainty We've heard a lot about the real-time challenges that therapists are facing in a changing business landscape. With a drop in inquiries, increased financial pressures on clients, and greater competition from virtual and AI-based services, private practice clinicians are feeling the pinch. We explore how to adapt your business model, rethink marketing strategies, and prioritize networking and flexibility to weather the storm and build a more resilient practice. What is the current state of private practice therapy businesses? • A drop in referrals and inquiries: Therapists are seeing fewer new client inquiries, especially compared to the pandemic boom. • Economic pressures on clients: Some are requesting fee reductions or shifting to less frequent sessions, even when practices are technically full. • Rising competition: Therapists are competing not just with other clinicians, but also with VC-backed platforms and AI services. What can private practice therapists do to navigate the current business climate? • The need for adaptability: Offering in-person and virtual options, adjusting your fee structure, and being flexible can help retain clients. • Business evolution: It's more important than ever to regularly assess your practice's expenses, operations, and marketing strategy. • Standing out in a crowded market: Specializing in specific modalities (like DBT or EMDR) and diversifying your service offerings (e.g., walk-and-talk therapy) can help. • Networking and community support: Building strong referral networks and staying connected with colleagues is essential in today's climate. • Sustainability for therapists with additional needs: Flexibility can also support therapists who are neurodivergent or living with chronic illness. Key Takeaways from this podcast episode for therapists • Monitor your referral trends and be proactive about filling client gaps—even if your caseload seems full. • Adjust your practice model as needed—offering hybrid sessions or reduced fees may help sustain your income. • Reevaluate your expenses and time investments (marketing, admin, documentation) for a more efficient practice. • Stay current and visible by evaluating SEO, trying Google Ads, and maintaining a strong online presence. • Network consistently—both online and in-person—to build a robust referral stream. • Don't be afraid to evolve. Practices that are nimble and responsive to change are more likely to succeed long-term.

Too restrictive or a key part of a military families financial planning? Today's episode is a no-holds-barred discussion about the pros, cons, and real-life strategies behind 529 plans. Episode Summary: In this episode, Spencer and Jamie dive deep into the world of 529 college savings plans—a tax-advantaged tool designed to save for qualified education expenses. They explore the basics of how 529 plans work (after-tax contributions, tax-free growth, and penalty-free withdrawals on qualified education expenses) and highlight recent changes that expand their flexibility beyond just college tuition. The conversation unfolds as Spencer raises his skeptical questions, while Jamie defends the plan's benefits by sharing personal experiences and strategies. From multi-generational planning to overcoming the challenge of overfunding, the discussion covers everything you need to know to determine if a 529 plan fits into your family's financial strategy. Key Discussion Points & Takeaways: Understanding 529 Fundamentals: Contributions are made with after-tax dollars, but the account grows tax-free, and withdrawals for qualified expenses (college, K–12 tuition, apprenticeship programs, computer equipment, and internet access) remain tax-free. Jamie explains the flexibility and evolving nature of 529 plans, including options to roll over funds to a Roth IRA (subject to annual limits and other restrictions) if the money isn't immediately needed for education. Flexibility vs. Restriction: Spencer shares his concerns about the plan's restrictions and whether the benefits favor high-income families more than those who might truly need the tax advantages. Jamie counters by emphasizing that the primary goal is to ensure your child's educational expenses are covered, while also noting that any “overfunding” isn't a total loss—it comes with backup options like beneficiary changes and penalty adjustments if funds are withdrawn for non-qualified purposes. Practical Money Management: Real-life insights on how to balance your overall financial strategy: build a solid retirement plan, clear debt, and then contribute to a 529 plan once you've established your own financial security. Jamie outlines his personal approach, including how much he's contributed over the years and his strategy for managing contributions as his children get closer to college age. Discussion of exit strategies: potential rollovers, transferring balances between beneficiaries, and even using scholarship funds to unlock part of the 529 savings without penalties. Generational and Strategic Considerations: Beyond college savings, the episode explores whether 529 plans can serve as a mechanism for a multi-generational legacy—providing educational support for nieces, nephews, or future grandchildren. The balance between maximizing tax-free growth and maintaining account flexibility is a recurring theme, with both hosts stressing the importance of aligning a 529 plan with your broader financial plan. Actionable Insights for Listeners: Evaluate Your Priorities: Before you start pouring funds into a 529 plan, ensure you've taken care of high-priority items like debt repayment and retirement savings. Start Early: Open an account when your child is young. Even small, regular contributions can accumulate significantly over time. Customize According to Your Needs: Understand that the “perfect” plan isn't one-size-fits-all. Consider factors like potential state tax deductions, investment options (like Vanguard 529's low-cost index fund style), and your own financial situation. Plan for Flexibility: Keep in mind exit strategies (such as rollovers to Roth IRAs and changing beneficiaries) so that if your situation changes, you're not locked into funds you can't use as intended.

Ever wonder how to kickstart your day in a way that fuels your body, sharpens your mind, and strengthens your spirit? Well, you're in for a treat today. I get asked all the time about my morning routine—and I'm finally spilling all the details in this episode!Now listen, I'm not saying you need to do what I do, but I want to inspire you to be intentional with your mornings. Because how you start your day? That sets the tone for everything else. And let's be honest—life can throw curveballs, so we've got to be ready.From push-ups before I'm even fully awake (yep, I said it

From the military to tech, sales to social media, and now teaching, my career path has been anything but conventional. Along the way, I've learned invaluable lessons that have shaped my ability to reinvent myself time and time again. Here are 10 key lessons I've learned throughout my journey—from Navy cryptologist to sales leader to educator—and how each experience contributed to my ongoing reinvention.Lesson 1: Sometimes the Most Unlikely Beginnings Lead to the Most Rewarding CareersI started my career in the Navy in 1992, where my job as a cryptologist and delivering messages by hand might not have seemed like the perfect foundation for the corporate world. But it taught me how to handle responsibility, work under pressure, and solve problems—all skills that would serve me throughout my career. From living on a Coast Guard base in the San Francisco Bay area to spending a year in Korea teaching English to a young Korean boy, I learned early on that diverse experiences can provide the foundation for something much bigger.The lesson here? Don't underestimate the value of seemingly unrelated experiences. Every chapter adds a layer to your skills, resilience, and perspective, even if it doesn't immediately seem relevant to where you want to go.Lesson 2: Be Open to Opportunities and Embrace the Learning ProcessAfter moving to Milwaukee in 1996, I started college to become a teacher, but I didn't stop there. I also delivered pizzas and became a peer trainer teaching faculty and students about new technology. Those experiences taught me that no matter your role, you can always learn and grow.What I realized is that even early in your career, the opportunities you take can be just as valuable as the degree or job you're aiming for. The key is to be open, ask questions, and be curious about everything around you.Lesson 3: Don't Be Afraid to Take Risks—Even When It Means Leaving CollegeIn 1998, I made a bold decision. I dropped out of college to pursue a “real job” in tech support, which eventually led to my first sales job selling high-speed internet. At the time, the internet wasn't nearly as fast as we now think of it, and there was a lot of skepticism around the promises we made to customers. But I learned that taking risks and stepping outside my comfort zone would be necessary to continue growing.The lesson here? Calculated risk-taking is vital to career growth. Sometimes, leaving the traditional path can open doors to opportunities that might not be on your radar otherwise.Lesson 4: Show Up and Be Ready to Learn—Even When It's HardBy 2000, I had transitioned into a stockbroker role and was working on a trading team. I was also responsible for teaching others how to use our online trading platform. After 9/11, I realized that technology was my true calling, so I transitioned into IT. Within two years, I earned my first management role, and eventually worked my way up to a VP of IT position.The key takeaway? Show up fully, be ready to learn, and always look for ways to add value. This is how you rise through the ranks and start shaping your own career trajectory.Lesson 5: Leadership is About Stepping Up—Even When You're Not Fully ReadyIn 2003, I finished my degree in computer science and took on a leadership role. About a year later, my manager decided to leave, and I was given the opportunity to lead the team. Even though I wasn't entirely prepared, I stepped up and said yes. That decision was pivotal in my career. It taught me that leadership often comes when you least expect it—and when it does, you need to be willing to take that leap of faith.Sometimes, leadership isn't about having all the answers; it's about being willing to step up and figure it out.Lesson 6: Your Experience and Knowledge Are Valuable—Don't Be Afraid to Share ThemIn 2005, I started my blog, sharing lessons I had learned along the way. I was reading books and consuming other blogs, and I wanted to contribute to the broader conversation. It was a humbling experience, but it also taught me that sharing your expertise—even when you're not a household name yet—can make a huge impact.In 2007, I joined David Zinger to write the Slacker Manager blog, co-authoring content on employee engagement and leadership. This experience taught me the power of collaboration and how sharing knowledge publicly can boost your credibility and open doors.Lesson 7: Self-Belief Is the First Step to Reinvention—Everything Else FollowsIn 2010, I decided to leave my corporate job, something I had been contemplating for years. People doubted I was really going to leave, and many thought I would fail. But I printed business cards, started networking as a consultant, and landed several consulting gigs with small businesses.The key lesson? Self-belief is the foundation of reinvention. When you believe in your ability to solve problems and create value, you can step into new opportunities, even if others doubt you or question your decisions. Your belief in yourself is what will propel you forward.Lesson 8: Clarity of Offer is Key to Digital Leadership and Sales SuccessIn 2013, I worked for a Silicon Valley software company and led the social media strategy. We made three major changes to our product's strategy within 18 months, and as a result, our product didn't sell well. Meanwhile, a more established product with a clear, defined space in the market continued to do well.This taught me that clarity is essential. If your audience doesn't understand what you're offering or why they need it, they won't buy. A clear, consistent message is key to success in sales and leadership.Lesson 9: Tenacity and Simplicity Are Keys to Teaching the UnbelievableIn 2015, I returned to the world of speaking and training, teaching salespeople how to leverage social media. At the time, many people were skeptical about social media as a business tool, and it was up to me to show them its value. I had to simplify complex ideas and be persistent in explaining them until others understood.This experience reinforced the lesson that teaching something new or controversial takes tenacity, courage, and the ability to break down complex ideas into simple, actionable steps. Persistence pays off when you're teaching others to see what they can't yet fully grasp.Lesson 10: Flexibility and Hustle Are Essential for Navigating Life's Unexpected TurnsIn 2022, I joined Bamboo HR in Sales Enablement, but by mid-2023, we moved to Ohio, and I had to give up that role. I pivoted again, working as a substitute teacher while I looked for a full-time position in education.What this taught me was that you have to be flexible when life throws curveballs, and you have to be willing to do whatever it takes to stay true to your goals. Whether it's working a second job to keep things afloat or stepping into a completely different field, staying adaptable and persistent is key to navigating life's unexpected changes.Happiness Practices with Phil Gerbyshak is a reader-supported publication.

From learning to step up as a leader before I felt ready, to teaching and simplifying complex ideas, to staying adaptable and flexible, each lesson has helped me reinvent myself at different stages of my career.The road to reinvention is rarely straight, but if you're willing to embrace these lessons and keep moving forward, you can build a career that's uniquely yours, no matter where you start or where life takes you next.
