Send us Fan MailAbout This EpisodeIn this episode, Leigh sits down with New York Times bestselling author and behavioral researcher Tom Rath to rethink purpose in a more grounded, actionable way. Tom explores why purpose is not one perfect calling or one perfect job, but a daily practice shaped by energy, alignment, contribution, and the small choices we make in the next 24 hours. Tom shares how his research, introversion, and experience living with a rare hereditary cancer condition have shaped his urgency, focus, and understanding of what it means to live boldly. This conversation offers a practical reset for anyone feeling misaligned, distracted, burned out, or ready to move from consuming to creating with greater intention. About Tom RathTom Rath is a #1 New York Times bestselling author whose books include How Full Is Your Bucket?, StrengthsFinder 2.0, Eat Move Sleep, and Life's Great Question. His work, which blends behavioral research with practical insight, has influenced how organizations and individuals think about performance, wellbeing, and purpose. Tom lives with a rare terminal illness and has written extensively about work, health, and contribution with unusual clarity and urgency.

This week, Wes leads us in prayer for three things: for our church to be sensitive to God's sending, for the lost to have an increased hunger and curiosity for Christ, and that we would have a hunger to be witnesses for Jesus Christ to the lost.

In his 29 years as a PGA Tour caddie, Ted Scott has won four Masters and an Olympic gold – not by having all the answers, but by asking the right questions at the right time. It's how Ted guides the #1 player in the world, Scottie Scheffler, without getting in the way of his greatness. It's his go-to strategy for getting better at anything. And it's why he's considered by many to be one of the best caddies to ever pick up a bag.

Plus, it's full of memorable golf stories that you've probably never heard before, all told with Ted's signature wisdom and charm. You'll also learn: The first question Ted asks any golfer he works with (and why it changes everything) How to disagree with someone without it becoming an argument A refreshingly simple formula for getting better at anything The (somewhat) shocking way he helped Scottie win the Olympics Take your learning further.

AI is making it easier than ever to run research, but faster doesn't always mean better. In this episode, we dig into what it really means to democratize research responsibly, and why your team probably needs a charter before someone does something they can't take back.Your team is already running research without you. So the real question is: are you going to help them do it well, or just hope for the best?Ned Dwyer is the co-founder and CEO of Great Question, an all-in-one UX research platform built to bring research to everyone in an organization. Not just the people with "researcher" in their title. He's spent years thinking about how teams can democratize access to customer insights without turning research into a free-for-all, and his talk at UX Con is what first put him on my radar.In this conversation, we dig into one of the more divisive topics in our industry right now: research democratization. Ned makes a pretty compelling case that it's not the all-or-nothing argument a lot of people make it out to be. It's a spectrum, and where your organization should land on that spectrum depends on who you're researching, what decisions are being made, and how much risk is on the table. We also get into AI's role in all of this, from AI-moderated interviews to synthesized insights, and where teams tend to get themselves into trouble when they hand over too much to the machine without any real governance in place.The thing I found most useful in this conversation is Ned's concept of a democratization charter, a practical framework for defining who should be doing what kind of research, with which populations, and under what guardrails. It's something I honestly hadn't thought much about before meeting Ned, and I think it's one of the most actionable ideas we've talked about on the show. If your team is already using AI research tools (and let's be honest, they probably are), this conversation is worth your time.Topics:• 01:45 - Ned's origin story and why he built Great Question• 04:10 - The pressure to move fast, and what gets lost when speed wins• 06:11 - The 80/20 rule: how to use AI without publishing slop• 09:45 - Democratization is a spectrum, not a binary• 12:35 - Where guardrails matter most: vulnerable populations and one-way-door decisions• 13:12 - The case for a democratization charter• 19:00 - AI moderation demystified: closer to a talking survey than a human interviewer• 23:00 - Ned's GoDaddy confession: how rogue research goes wrong• 27:00 - Participant fatigue and insight overload: the new risks AI introduces• 31:45 - Rogue research will happen regardless... your job is to make it safer• 43:28 - The Will Smith spaghetti analogy and where AI tools are headed—Thanks for listening!

Do you know how to ask great questions? A few years ago, back in 2022, I released an episode called How to Ask Better Questions in English. And today's episode is an update to that original one. The core idea is the same, because it's still important, but a lot has changed since then. I've changed as a podcaster and an educator, and I think English learners' needs have changed too. In fact, the way we use English in 2026 is very different from how we used it just a few years ago. We now spend more time in online meetings, working with international teams, and communicating through messages, emails, and AI tools. In this kind of world, the ability to ask good questions matters more than ever. Most people know how to ask questions, but very few people know how to ask good questions. And learning how to do that can change your English, your conversations, and the opportunities you have. Today, we will look at different types of question, what makes a good question, and I'll give you a lot of useful advice!

This week's throwback guest is Cal Fussman. This was a very special interview for me, because Cal is one of the major reasons why I started podcasting in the first place.

My Guest: Dan Coyle is a New York Times bestselling author who's spent the last two decades studying what makes great teams great. He wrote The Talent Code, The Culture Code, and now Flourish—books that have shaped how millions of people think about skill development, team culture, and meaningful connection. He works with the Cleveland Guardians as a special advisor on culture and performance. We recorded this one together in Cleveland. Notes: Find your yellow doors. Most of us go through life looking for green doors (clearly open paths) and red doors (obviously closed paths). But yellow doors are different. They're out of the corner of your eye, things that make you uncomfortable or feel brand new. That's where life actually happens. We think life is a straight line from A to B to C, but it's not. Life isn't a game... It's complex, living, shifting. Yellow doors are opportunities to create meaningful connections and explore new paths. "Life deepens when we become aware of the yellow doors, the ones we glimpse out of the corner of our eye." The craft journey always involves getting simpler. Simple is not easy. The great ones have their craft to where there's a simplicity to it. In this world of clutter and noise, it's easy to want to compete with energy and speed, but the stuff that really resonates is quieter and simpler. Be a beginner again in something. With climbing, Dan's at the very bottom of the craft mountain. With writing, he's somewhere in the middle. It's fun to have a couple of zones in your life where you're a beginner. It's liberating, but it also develops empathy. Some stuff looks very simple, but isn't. Every good story has three elements. There's some desire (I want to get somewhere), there's some obstacle (this thing standing in my way), and there's some transformation on that journey. Teaching teaches you. Coaching Zoe's writing team helped Dan, and then Zoe ended up coaching Dan. It was never "let me transmit all my wisdom to my daughter." It was a rich two-way dialogue that helped both of them. Suffering together is powerful. Doing hard things together with other people, untangling things together (literally and figuratively), and being vulnerable together. That's culture code stuff. Whether it's skiing with your kids, seeing them fall and get back up, or being trapped underground like the Chilean miners. Behind every individual success is a community. Dan dedicates all his books to his wife, Jenny (except one). Growing up, he had this idea of individual success, individual greatness. But when you scratch one of those individual stories, what's revealed is a community of people. Jenny is the ecosystem that lets Dan do what he does. Going from writing project to writing project, hoping stuff works out, exploring... it's not efficient. It's not getting on the train to work and coming home at five o'clock. It's "I think I need to go to Russia" or "I need to dig into this." She's been more than a partner, an incredible teammate. Great organizations aren't machines; they're rivers. The old model of leadership is the pilot of the boat, the person flipping levers who has all the answers. That's how most of us grew up thinking about leaders. But Indiana football, the SEALs, Pixar... when you get close to these organizations, they're not functioning like machines. Machines are controlled from the outside and produce predictable results. These organizations are more like energy channels that are exploring. They're like rivers. How do you make a river flow? Give it a horizon to flow toward (where are we going?), set up river banks (where we're not gonna go), but inside that space create energy and agency. Questions do that. Leaders who are good at lobbing questions in and then closing their mouth... that's the most powerful skill. Great teams have peer leaders who sacrifice. Since Indiana football's fresh in our minds... Peer leaders who sacrifice for the team are really big. Fernando Mendoza got smoked, battered, hammered, and he kept going without complaint. In his interview afterward, he talks about his teammates. That's the DNA of great teams. Adversity reveals everything. The litmus test: in moments of terrible adversity, what's the instinct? Are we turning toward each other or away from each other? You could see it in that game. The contrast between the two teams. When things went bad, they responded very differently. The coach isn't as important as you think. Coaches can create the conditions for the team to emerge, but great teams sometimes pit themselves against the coach. The US Olympic hockey team of 1980 would be an example. They came together against Herb Brooks. So coaching sets the tone, but it's not as big a part of DNA as people think. Curiosity keeps great teams from drinking their own Kool-Aid. The teams that consistently succeed don't get gassed up on their own stuff. They don't believe in their success. They're not buying into "now I'm at the top of the mountain, everything's fine." They get curious about that next mountain, curious about each other, curious about the situation. They're willing to let go of stuff that didn't work. Honor the departed. When someone gets traded in pro sports, it's like death. Their locker's empty like a gravestone. What the coach at OKC does: on the day after somebody gets traded, he spends a minute of practice expressing his appreciation for that person who's gone. How simple and human is that? How powerful? What makes people flourish is community. It's not a bunch of individuals that are individually together. Can they connect? Can they love their neighbor and support their neighbor? That's magical when it happens. The Chilean miners created civilization through rituals. 33 men, 2,000 feet underground, trapped for 69 days. The first couple hours went as bad as it could. People eating all the food, scrambling, yelling. Then they circled up and paused. The boss took off his helmet and said, "There are no bosses and no employees. We're all one here." Their attention shifted from terror and survival to the larger connection they had with each other. They self-organized. Built sleeping areas, rationed food, created games with limited light. Each meal they'd share a flake of tuna at the same time. When they got contact with the surface, they sang the Chilean national anthem together. They created a little model civilization that functioned incredibly well. Stopping and looking creates community. What let the miners flourish wasn't information or analysis. It was letting go. Having this moment of meaning, creating presence. All the groups Dan visited had this ability in all the busyness to stop and ask: What are we really about? What matters here? What is our community? Why are we here? What is bigger than us that we're connected to? They grounded themselves in those moments over and over. Getting smart only gets you so far. There's a myth in our culture that individuals can flourish. You see someone successful and think "that individual's flourishing." But underneath them, invisibly, they're part of a larger community. We only become our best through other people. We have a pronoun problem: I, me, when actually it's we and us. Self-improvement isn't as powerful as shared improvement. Ask energizing questions. "What's energizing you right now?" is a great question. "What do you want more of?" "What do you want to do differently?" (not "what are you doing poorly"). "Paint a picture five years from now, things go great, give me an average Tuesday." What you're trying to do is get people out of their narrow boredom, let go a little, surrender a little, open up and point out things in the corner of their eye. When things go rough, go help somebody. Craig Counsell on how to bounce back when you're having a bad day: "I try to go help somebody." That's it. Create presence conditions. The ski trips, the long drives, the shared meals, no phones. Schedule them. This is how connection happens, whether it's with your family or your people at work. Leaders who sustain excellence are intensely curious. Dan walked into the Guardians office expecting to pepper them with questions. The opposite happened. Jay, Chris, and Josh kept asking him question after question, wanting to learn. Leaders who sustain excellence have this desire to learn, improve, get better. Ask better questions. Actually listen. Ask follow-up questions. Curiosity is also the ultimate way to show love. Reflection Questions Dan says yellow doors are "out of the corner of your eye, things that make you uncomfortable or feel brand new." What's one yellow door you've been walking past lately? What's stopping you from opening it this week?The Chilean miners' boss took off his white helmet and said, "There are no bosses and no employees." Think about a moment of adversity your team is facing right now. Are you turning toward each other or away? What's one specific action you could take this week to help your team turn toward each other? Dan emphasizes we have a "pronoun problem" (I, me vs. we, us) and that "self-improvement isn't as powerful as shared improvement." Who are the 2-3 people you could invite into your growth journey right now? What would it look like to pursue excellence together instead of alone?
This is where I would share powerful questions that you can answer for big insights and change. But here's why I'm not: I've read books that have long lists of questions. But when I'm reading, I want to keep reading, not stop for hours or days at that spot, pondering every question. I've read books that act like a workbook, giving many blank pages with lines, expecting you to write your answers in that space. Does anyone actually do this? It doesn't work on the ebook or audiobook. I'd rather use my own journal. If I put questions here, I'd think of better ones after the book is published. So here's what we'll do: Go to sive.rs/u That's the permanent website for this book, where I'll keep an ever-improving collection of helpful questions, free for you to take and use whenever you want. I hope you agree that it's better than this page of this book could ever be.
Pick something that's holding you back from what you want to do, be, or feel. It might feel like physical fact. “I'm too old.” “I can't afford it.” Even if you are old and have no money, that has not stopped others, so that's not the real problem. Beliefs are often self-fulfilling. Whether you think you can or can't, you're right. Think nobody will love you? Think there are no opportunities? You can make bad dreams come true. Doubt limitations. What's another way to see it? What perspective would help? Ask better questions. “I'm too old” becomes “How can I use my age to my advantage?” “I can't afford it” becomes “How can I afford it?” Every problem becomes “What's great about this?” Go back to your favorite books, movies, thinkers, or heroes. They're your favorites for good reason. They have lessons or wisdom you can use. What did they teach you? What would they say? Ask any AI to list empowering questions. There's no shortage of great questions. But don't just ingest them. You have to really answer them.

MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE Buffini Coaching LiveNOTEWORTHY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE “We need to understand that questions are the keys to unlocking any door we need to walk through.” — Ken Coleman “My goal in every interview is to get someone to say, ‘I've never been asked that before' or ‘I've never shared this before.'” — Ken Coleman “Listen with your ears for tone, with your eyes for body language, with your face to mirror engagement, and with your body to show respect.” — Ken Coleman “I'm going to listen with my eyes. And this is probably as important as the ears. I'm watching body language. I'm watching an uncomfortable shift or I'm watching the shoulders drop.” — Ken Coleman “Confidence isn't pre-loaded — it's the consequence of a good conversation.” — Ken Coleman itsagoodlife.com Hosted on Acast.

Today, I pass on my answer to a great question asked by a Christian state legislator who listened to last week’s podcast about working to restore God’s “ordered liberty”: If we are to do that, how should we have argued for the bill not allowing men to compete in women’s sports? Equally important is what can we learn about ourselves by thinking through the two different approaches?
