Welcome to this episode of Becoming Unshakeable! If you've been a follower and fan of Leadership with Heart, you're in exactly the right place. From here on out, Becoming Unshakeable will be the new name of my show—and I can't wait to bring you invaluable insights on what it means to lead with clarity, compassion and courage. In this conversation, I sat down with my friend and powerhouse leader, Susan Frew. Susan's path runs from corporate leadership at AT&T Wireless across the Caribbean to small business ownership, reinvention, and now her work as a top AI speaker. She embodies what Becoming Unshakeable is all about. We talk about the moments that tested her, the choices that reshaped her, and the practices that keep her steady when life speeds up.  Susan shares how being a young international VP in Grenada and St. Vincent taught her to build from scratch, lead across cultures, and become her own IT department. She opens up about the seasons that didn't fit, what she unlearned about “being everything to everyone,” and why finding work you truly love changes your energy, confidence, and results. We get honest about ADHD as a superpower, the discipline of protecting your circle from gossip, and the surprising role sleep hypnosis and mindset work have played in her growth. If you are barely holding it together, this one will meet you right where you are. You will hear practical self-leadership tools, a fresh take on career reinvention, and a grounded vision for using AI to serve people with integrity and kindness. Listen in for fuel, clarity, and a reminder that you can move forward, even on the hard days.

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's shocking assassination, America stands at a crossroads—torn between grief, anger, and the urgent need for unity. Today, we're joined by Dale Comstock, retired U.S. Army Delta Force Master Sergeant, twice decorated for valor, and author of American Badass. With 37 years of combat experience from Grenada to Afghanistan, Dale knows firsthand the cost of division and the price of violence. He led men under fire, breached the Modelo Prison in Panama, and built a career training others to perform under extreme pressure. Few are better equipped to help us understand how to navigate this perilous moment in our nation's history. Together, we'll confront the hard questions: What does Charlie's death reveal about the state of America? How do we protect our leaders while preserving free speech? And most importantly, how do we honor Charlie's call for grace in a time when anger and revenge threaten to tear us apart? This conversation is not about politics—it's about survival, resilience, and finding a path forward before division turns into disaster.

Hej! W najnowszym odcinku serii Powojnie poruszam zapomniany epizod współczesnej historii – amerykańską inwazję na Grenadę. Ta niewielka karaibska wyspa trafiła na nagłówki gazet, gdy Stany Zjednoczone zdecydowały się siłą wymusić tam zmianę władzy.Grenada coraz bardziej przypominała Kubę – jej przywódcy zacieśniali relacje z Moskwą i przede wszystkim z reżimem Fidela Castro. Sam Castro był bliskim przyjacielem lidera grenadyjskiej rewolucji – Maurice'a Bishopa. To budziło rosnące zaniepokojenie w Białym Domu, zwłaszcza po podpisaniu umowy z ZSRR na dostawy broni.Sytuacja zaostrzyła się po zamachu stanu, który wyniósł do władzy jeszcze bardziej prosowiecką frakcję. Waszyngton uznał, że nie może dłużej zwlekać. Prezydent Ronald Reagan dał zielone światło do przeprowadzenia operacji Urgent Fury – „Nagła Furia” miała powstrzymać rozwój kolejnego sojusznika bloku wschodniego tuż pod nosem USA. w filmie.

Send us a textWhat happens when you leave behind the familiarity of corporate America for an uncertain future on a small Caribbean island? For Stacey Liburd, it became the first step in an extraordinary journey toward becoming the CEO of the Grenada Tourism Authority.Stacey's story is one of courage, faith, and purpose. Ten years ago, she abandoned her New York-New Jersey commute for Anguilla, a tiny island of just 35 square miles and 15,000 residents. What began as a personal quest transformed into professional leadership when she was appointed to Anguilla's Tourist Board and later became Director of Tourism.Her recent appointment as Grenada Tourism Authority CEO represents not just a career achievement but a vision for community-centered tourism development. Throughout our conversation, Stacey shares her approach to destination management – one where success is measured by how tourism dollars reach small local businesses, not just major resorts. Her leadership philosophy centers on transparency, community buy-in, and developing local talent to assume management positions throughout the hospitality industry. Beyond Grenada itself, Stacey articulates a compelling vision for regional collaboration to enhance Caribbean tourism. For anyone contemplating a major career pivot or seeking to lead with greater purpose, Stacey's journey offers profound inspiration. As she reflects on the principle that guides her work – "To whom much is given, much is required" – we glimpse the heart behind her leadership: gratitude expressed through service, opportunity translated into responsibility, and personal success measured by community impact.Connect:Grenada Tourism Authority - https://www.puregrenada.com/Stacey Liburd - LinkedIn Subscribe to the Newsletter Support How to Support Carry On Friends Donate: If you believe in our mission and want to help amplify Caribbean voices, consider making a donation.

In this GoMission episode, Mark Gilmore sits down with BCM senior Ben Stoeckmann to reflect on his seven-week internship in Grenada. From curvy mountain roads to palm-lined beaches, Ben's journey was filled with gospel opportunities—three Cola Clash–style youth outreaches, preaching in multiple communities, and connecting with local believers. Yet, the greatest lesson came not from the events themselves, but from what followed: the urgent need to pray for and invest in disciples, not just decisions. Through firsthand experiences and the example of national pastor Jeremy Scott, Ben shares how intentional, life-on-life ministry can break strongholds and multiply lasting fruit.Topics DiscussedLocation, culture, and spiritual climate of GrenadaInternship under national pastor Jeremy ScottThree Cola Clash–style youth outreaches in Victoria, Chantimelle, and Mount RichOvercoming challenges of rainy season and cultural differencesSpiritual strongholds: works-based religion, drinking, immorality, and subtle animismMiraculous connections with young men hungry for God's WordThe importance of praying for disciples as fervently as for salvation decisionsPastor Scott's “life-on-life” discipleship modelApplying disciplemaking principles both overseas and in the U.S.Ben's personal call to missions and growing burden for the Hispanic worldKey TakeawaysSalvation decisions are only the starting point; true Great Commission work requires making disciples.Prayer for discipleship should be just as urgent and intentional as prayer for conversions.Life-on-life investment—sharing ministry and everyday moments—is essential for spiritual growth.Cultural openness to the gospel does not eliminate the need to address deep-rooted spiritual strongholds.The principles of effective disciplemaking overseas are just as vital to practice at home.If you have your own unique story of gospel advance or if you sense God leading you toward a particular people group, we'd love to hear about it.

It's the final episode of Series 17 and we're bidding adieu with actor, presenter and author, the gorgeous Stephen Mangan! Fresh from filming his latest series in Grenada, Stephen joined us for a BBQ lunch. We heard about his process when writing children's books, choosing to go to boarding school as a child, his recent stint in the West End in a play about thrupples, how he plans to run a marathon every year for the rest of his life, and mum manages to get him to tell us his confession - a la his Radio 4 series ‘The Confessional'. Thank you Stephen for being a fabulous series finale! Stephen's new series of ‘The Fortune Hotel' starts on the 6th August on ITV1. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Show Notes Episode 500(!): Who's Afraid of Grenada? Part 2 of Summer Series 2025 This week Host Dave Bledsoe dressed up in his old Air Force dress uniform and staggered into a bar insisting he was there to “liberate” the Jameson. (His invasion was repulsed by an annoyed bouncer) On the show this week part two of Summer Series 2025 “You Can Have A Little War, As A Treat” continues with 1983's Invasion of Grenada. Along the way we discover that Dave may have covered up a brutal murder in the late 1980's. (Admittedly, the victim was a swan.) Then we dive right into the history of the tiny island nation of Grenada, from its discovery by Columbus, to colonization by the French and the British. From there we discuss how the long claws of Communism grabbed the peaceful island via the construction of an airport. (That was actually paid for by the United Kingdom.) Then we learn why Ronald Reagan sent thousands of US Troops to “rescue” some perfectly safe medical students. (Hint: It was politically expedient.) Our Sponsor this week is the Grenada Tourism Board, who invite you to try a little Pure Grenada! We open the show with news from 1983 and close with Berbice who loves his island.

Americans are divided by geography. Most of us live in overwhelmingly red or blue Congressional Districts. We are less likely than ever to know someone from the other side of the political spectrum. We are often misinformed about what members of the other tribe actually believe. In this episode we speak with Kirk Tatnall, Starla Brown, and Cade Smith about a Braver Angels exchange program. Participants from New York City and Jackson, Mississippi visited each other over two weekends. They held workshops and meetings, engaging in discussions across differences.“I just have a fundamental underlying belief that you cannot understand someone else unless you know them,” Kirk Tatnall told us. “You cannot really get to the motivations and the passions and the drive of other people until you see how they live.”The exchange began with the idea that only by coming together physically - in each other's backyards - can we begin to understand the other side.“We got to know each other, and we were allowed to be vulnerable in a very safe, wonderful environment,” said Starla Brown. “Being able to be vulnerable with people who don't agree with you is empowering.”Exchange participants learned about two very different parts of the country, and engaged with people not like them. “It's not just speaking. It's being open to seeing someone in a completely new light, and if you do you can never see them the old way,” Cade Smith told “How Do We Fix It?”This podcast is our latest to report on the people, projects, and ideas of Braver Angels, who aim to restore the American spirit of working together.Our guests:Starla Brown is the current State Director for Americans for Prosperity's Mississippi Chapter. Starla is a 5th generation Mississippian and spent a portion of her life in South Florida where she worked in the construction industry and marketing development, as well as with the Florida chapter of AFP. Kirk Tatnall has been a New Yorker for most of his adult life. His career in advertising has spanned the digital marketing era and he continues to focus his time at the crossroads of media, data and adtech to deliver cross-channel television solutions. He is a husband and father to an adult son who continues to seek out reconciliation across a deeply divided nation.Cade grew up in Grenada, Mississippi and is the Assistant Vice Chancellor for Access and Community Engagement in the Division of Access, Opportunity, and Community Engagement at The University of Mississippi. His work includes advancing the formation of collaborative partnerships between UM scholars and communities. He is also responsible for building bridges across divided communities through dialogue, education, and scholarly inquiry. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Every 19th of October, Grenadians mark a somber anniversary: the 1983 execution of the country's former prime minister and revolutionary leader, Maurice Bishop, and others who died alongside him. The people of this Caribbean nation still have no closure more than 40 years later. The remains of Bishop and his supporters were never returned to their family members and are missing to this day. In the first episode of “The Empty Grave of Comrade Bishop,” The Washington Post's Martine Powers takes us on the personal journey that led her to learn about Grenada's history. Martine delves into why Bishop was such an influential figure, what made the United States nervous about him and why the mystery of his missing remains continues to haunt so many on the island. If you haven't listened to the series yet, we hope you check it out on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you listen to podcasts.
