This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Minnie look back at Nebraska's first Big Ten Conference win of the season, last Saturday's 38-27 win against Michigan State. There was good, there was bad, and to cap off the reference to one of the top westerns of all time, there was ugly. But this Nebraska team is different. There will be a bit of a player focus as the pair spend some time talking about wide receiver Dane Key. While it may not look like the former Kentucky Wildcat has been incredibly productive, stats as well as teammate and coach testimonials tell a different tale. Minnie will share her knowledge of the Maryland Terrapins with the Holgormaniacs and we'll collect predictions for this Saturday's game.

The best we ever get at living is clumsy. No one can become perfect, even though we carry a picture of it in our hearts. Ecclesiastes 3:11 (NIV) says, “He has set eternity in the human heart.” No matter our determination or information, we humans will always have to struggle with mistakes and sin. We have to live on life's terms, not our terms. Death and the unpredictable are a part of this life. We cannot know the future. We are dependent upon our need of each other and God. If we do not face, feel, and deal well with our neediness in a healthy way, we will become defended against the pains that come with love. No one can change or defeat this fact about life. If we don't learn how to need others and God, it increases the negative consequences we don't want for ourselves or those we love. Everything in life is practice. Doctors are practicing, and lawyers are practicing. Parents are also practicing, as are children. We are not works of perfection. We have to keep learning and risking without knowing all of the outcomes. We are in this life together; the more proactive everyone is in helping each other practice living fully and loving deeply, the better the outcomes. It takes a lifetime to learn how to live. Whether we are eight, twenty-eight, or eighty, we are still asking many of the same questions throughout our lives, like, “When will we get there?” “How much will it hurt?” or “Will you be there to get me?” No one has all the answers to life. We have to keep learning how to live, even as we gain wisdom about doing so, hopefully. There is not a destination of “having it all together.” We are all works in progress. Rather than the facts of reality defeating us, they can actually give us permission to gain more humility. Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

He's known for his "net weaving" philosophy, a high-impact approach to sales and growth through authentic relationship-building and value-first connections.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling from the Heart, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy sit down with Forrest Derr, a Fractional COO and EOS Integrator, to explore the concept of net weaving, a powerful, service-driven alternative to traditional networking.Instead of collecting business cards, Forrest builds genuine connections by helping others succeed first. He shares how consistent, intentional introductions can turn into real relationships, collaborative communities, and a full sales pipeline.Whether you're a sales professional, executive, or entrepreneur, this episode will show you how serving others without expectation can unlock exponential business growth. KEY TAKEAWAYSNet weaving > networking — it's about connecting people selflessly, not extracting value.Long-term play — relationships take time, but deliver consistent, compounding rewards.Build small groups — foster trust and collaboration by creating purpose-driven communities.Your network is your asset — when people work with you, they also gain access to your connections.Pipeline through generosity — helping others fills your funnel more effectively than pitching.Give freely — offer ideas, referrals, and introductions without keeping score.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESIt's not about making the sale—it's about making the connection.Net weaving is trying to meet people to figure out who you can introduce.When you get me, you don't just get me—you get my entire network.The pipeline will come because your people are going to refer business to each other.
This week on the Five Heart Podcast, it's time to get back in the saddle and preview some Nebraska football. The 3-1 Huskers host the 3-1 Michigan State Spartans for the fourth straight home game (fifth if you include Husker Nation's takeover of Arrowhead Stadium). Nebraska is coming off a 30-27 loss to Michigan. Sparty also won their first three games just to lose their conference opener. The Spartans have two wins over lesser competition (Western Michigan and Youngstown State) as well as a two-point win over the ACC's Boston College. Yes, the same Boston College that Nebraska beat in the Pinstripe Bowl at the end of 2024. Every indication is that the Huskers will not see a defensive front like Michigan's, probably for the rest of the season. So heading into this weekend, are you optimistic? What's your mindset? Where are your five hearts? We'll peel back the bandages and prepared to hope again.

Lee Salz is the founder and CEO of Sales Architects®, a globally recognized sales management strategist, bestselling author, and keynote speaker. Widely respected for challenging outdated sales methods, Lee equips organizations with powerful sales strategies, playbooks, and processes that drive explosive, profitable growth.His insights have helped hundreds of companies differentiate themselves and develop world-class salesforces. As the author of several bestsellers—including Sales Differentiation and his latest, The First Meeting Differentiator—Lee is on a mission to transform how companies approach sales conversations, starting with the very first meeting.SHOW SUMMARYIn this episode of Selling from the Heart, Larry Levine and Darrell Amy welcome back Lee Salz for an insightful conversation about the critical role of the first meeting in the sales journey.They explore what it means to sell from the heart—leading with authenticity, human connection, and emotional awareness. Lee explains why most sales professionals fail to differentiate themselves early on and how to fix it.From practical strategies to ask emotive questions, to why you should always end meetings with clear next steps, this episode is a goldmine of advice for sales professionals who want to build deeper trust, deliver meaningful value, and win more deals. KEY TAKEAWAYSAuthenticity wins — make people feel seen, heard, and valued.Meaningful value comes from understanding the client's emotional and strategic needs.Emotions drive decisions, but most sellers only use logic—learn how to tap into both.Differentiate in the first meeting by asking better questions and leading with empathy.Clarity matters — end every meeting with clear next steps and a follow-up.Language is powerful — say “investing time,” not “spending time.”HIGHLIGHT QUOTESPerson before prospect. Until you understand them as a person, you can't possibly have them as a prospect.Don't forget to say: ‘Thank you for investing time with me today.' Not spending time, nvesting it.People buy based on emotion and justify their decisions with logic—but nobody's doing it.The problem with your case is it's all facts, no heart—and the jury isn't buying it.
Well, it's the end of September and we're a third of the way through the 2025 football season. Nebraska is 3-1 with lopsided wins over inferior opponents. But the recent loss to Michigan that opened up conference play shined a spotlight on areas of weakness, where our beloved Huskers need to improve. Offensive line, defensive line, tackling. While we still have eight games in and the transfer portal is not open, I think the case can be made to prioritize the Jimmy's and Joe's up front. It was once said that top tier linemen are fewer and far between than five-star skill players. I think we can say our wide receiver room took a giant leap forward in the off-season. The same evolution needs to happen in the trenches. So it's the bye week and hopefully adjustments will be made. We'll find out next week against Michigan State.

Some of the content in these episodes loosely connects to the book, Parenting with Heart by Stephen James and Chip Dodd. The content of episode #86, “Big Results from Simple Actions,” comes from a free resource that can be downloaded at chipdodd.com. Big Results from Simple Actions - Chip Dodd, Ph.D. The following is a list of eleven qualities that make leaders worth joining and make participants valuable to leaders. These eleven simple actions are what leaders and participants do who create vibrant, sustainable, productive environments in which excellence is the norm. The list also speaks to what parents hope their children will learn and what children hope their parents already practice. In addition, the list speaks to how friendship is honored, and how marital partners express respect for one's self and their spouse. The driving force of these qualities comes out of what psychology calls an internal locus of control and what the rest of us call being responsible because it feels good and it's good to do. Simply put, the action-oriented qualities listed below show that a person brings ability, effort, and excellence to what they do. If you open it—close it. If you unlock it—lock it back. If you drop it—pick it up. If you borrow it—return it. If you use it—take care of it. If you break it—fix it. If you can't fix it—call someone who can. If you mess it up—clean it up. If you give your word—keep it. If it is your responsibility—own it. If it encourages someone—say it. To summarize, I end where I started. The actions listed above are what make leaders worth joining, and make participants valuable to leaders. The actions speak to what parents hope their children will learn, and what children hope their parents already practice, so they can learn. In addition, the actions speak to how friendship is honored, and how marital partners express respect for one's self and the other. Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.
Selling From the Heart: Why Authenticity, Not Performance, is the Future of Sales This conversation goes straight to the heart—literally—with bestselling author and award-winning podcaster Larry Levine, who is on a mission to disrupt the sales profession with a radically human message: No More Empty Suits. In a world obsessed with performance, Larry brings us back to what really builds trust—authenticity, presence, and heart. After 30+ years in B2B sales and realizing how broken the traditional sales script had become, Larry now leads a movement that encourages professionals to throw out manipulative tactics and embrace who they really are. This episode is full of powerful mic-drop moments and honest truths. If you've ever felt like you're faking it in order to succeed—or that your relationships are surface-level at best—this conversation will call you in, not out. Lisa and Larry break down how showing up with your whole heart is the competitive advantage in today's trust-deficient world. Key Takeaways "Selling from the Heart" isn't a tactic—it's a movement rooted in authenticity and integrity. The traditional, transactional sales script is outdated and costs us trust and long-term relationships. Trust is built not with performance, but with presence and vulnerability. “It's hard to sell from the heart if you don't know what's in your heart.” Long-term success is a byproduct of consistency, discipline, and self-awareness. Most salespeople don't really know their clients—they just think they do. If leaders want heart-centered sales teams, they have to model it from the top. Authenticity = congruent walk and talk. IQ might get your foot in the door, but EQ builds lasting client loyalty.

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Minnie will quickly recap Nebraska Football's 59-7 win over the Huskies of Houston Christian University. A week after the 68-0 destruction of Akron, the Huskers posted another lopsided win, and got into the depth charts in the process. The starters sat the second half, giving an opportunity to TJ Lateef, Cortez Mills Jr, Kwentin Ives, and a host of others to maintain the standard that Dylan Raiola and Co. established in the first half of the contest. But as Good Ol JR would say, "business is about to pick up" this weekend when the #21 Michigan Wolverines come to Lincoln. This marks the eighth game between the schools since Nebraska joined the Big Ten Conference, most of he match-ups going the way of the Wolverines. Will this be the year that the Huskers overcome Michigan, beat a ranked team, and finally take the next step into recovering their place among the college football elite?

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, Greg and Minnie will recap last week's impressive 68-0 win over the Akron Zips. When the whistle blew on the end of the first quarter, the Huskers carried an unimpressive 9-0 lead. Fifteen minutes and 24 points later, Nebraska extended their lead to 33-0 (that's how math works). But for Head Coach Matt Rhule, that was not enough. He tore into the team at halftime and demanded better. He demanded that the team play to a level that earned respect and where Akron coaches would want to tell their AD NOT to schedule Nebraska any more. The Huskers then rattled off five second half touchdowns, the defense and special teams combined for the shutout, and Archie Wilson didn't punt a single time. All in all, it was he perfect make-up for the 2018 season opener that never happened. Also on the docket, the two prep the viewers/listeners for the upcoming Houston Christian game on Saturday.

Keeping Heart, a book by Dr Chip Dodd, is written in short sections that are self-contained as specific pieces.

The Equation for the Gifts of the Feelings By practicing the equation, we can live fully; we can love deeply; we can lead well. By practicing the equation, we discover that core feelings lead to genuine relational needs, which move us to admitting the desire of our hearts, as well as our longings and hope. Feelings > Needs > Desire > Longings > Hope, as explored in Episode #80 and Episode #81. The equation requires courage, that is, bringing your heart to who and what matters to you. WILLINGNESS + PATIENCE + WORK + TIME = GIFTS Willingness: Willingness is the courageous energy of allowing your heart to be given over to hoping again. Hope has become dangerous to many of us because of past experiences that turned out very differently than what we had hoped. Taking the risk of hoping again is fearful. We need help in risking hope, but we must take the risk if we are to experience new, better, or improved outcomes. Running from hope makes us sick. Patience: Patience is ability to persevere amidst the struggle that comes with your desire to live fully. Patience literally means, “burden of hope.” So often what we seek and what we desire requires the ability to wait—to delay gratification—as we continue to move towards fulfillment. Waiting means that we continue to hope even though it is painful. Waiting requires feeling and needing, and means that our hearts carry the “burden of hope,” as we persevere, with the encouragement of others and faith in God.

In this episode we discuss the following: I love Mark's message, that the best leaders lead from the heart. They care about people, they support people, they trust people, and they have their best interest at heart. I thought Mark made a really interesting point that we admire coaches who show that they love their players. But the conventional business leaders shy away from this type of heart-led leadership. When we think about the best leaders we know, the ones who we'll run through a brick wall for, they're the ones who truly love us. The best leaders lead from the heart.

This week on the Five Heart Podcast, the team discusses last week's season-opening victory over Cincinnati. While the Bearcats made the game more interesting than Husker fans would have preferred, over 70,000 Nebraska fans went home happy after the final whistle blew on Nebraska's 20-17 win. The Huskers dominated the time of possession and the defense did a good job of shutting down the Cincy offense outside of some quarterback runs from Brendan "The Model" Sorsby. Dylan Raiola completed 78.5% of his passes along with two touchdowns to two Husker newcomers, Nyziah Hunter and Dane Key. Emmett Johnson rolled for over 100 rushing yards, and the defense forced two turnovers. Meanwhile, we got punts away and two field goals including a career best 52-yarder from Kyle Cunanan. Are improvements needed? Yes. But let's not pretend that we lost and the world is coming to an end. Go Big Red. Always.

On page 23 of Keeping Heart, there is a sentence that shows the dark side of avoiding love's requirements: “Avoiding love's demand, though, requires that we hide our hearts, and, therefore, remove ourselves from living this life.” Contact is not connection We experience a vast array of what we call “connections” through all forms of technology that has given us the internet and its multiple forms of social media that offers the illusion of “connection.” We call it “interconnected.” However, it does not actually give what it says. We are “inter-contacted,” not actually connected. There are multiple forms of contact, but we still remain disconnected from each other, and even ourselves. Sadly, loneliness and relational isolation are two of the most talked about forms of misery in our society today, even though we have more pervasive contact than ever before in the history of humanity. When Caesar connected the Roman Empire with roads, it led to people groups being connected—for better or worse. The technology of today is not a road to connect us. It is the technology that actually keeps us from “facing each other,” which is where genuine connection begins. Contact is like watching a movie. In a movie, we experience life vicariously, which means “not really in it.” Even more, if we watch it alone, we experience life vicariously in isolation. We do not share a lived experience in reality True connection is a shared experience in reality. Contact does not feed the heart. Connection feeds the heart. Connection requires that a person shares the experiences of their emotional and spiritual lives with another who is capable of doing the same. Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

This resource identifies each “root” of how we are created as feeling, needing, desiring, longing, hoping people who seek to live fully in relationship with ourselves, with others, and with God. A path not a pill So often, people offer a “pill” (metaphorically or literally) to a person who is struggling with life's difficulties. The struggle could be anxiety, depression, or addiction. Most people, however, need a path instead of a “pill.” This podcast is part of the path we are created to walk in life's struggles. The Voice of the Heart, Needs of the Heart, and Keeping Heart, also, are part of the path. This podcast and the books speak to the need for relationship and its power to help and heal us through relational connection. Communion connects to community We quickly think of communion as a religious experience only. It also means to share; it is where we get the word community and communication. We are created to be in communion with each other—a group of people who share the truth of their hearts. In Genesis 2:18, God declared for the first time that something was “not good.” This declaration clearly made reference to a man and a woman. It also speaks to how we are created for fellowship; the fellowship of truth telling about our struggles and celebrations that connect us to each other. Then the LORD God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make him a helper suitable for him.” Genesis 2:18 (NIV) When Adam & Eve sinned in the Garden of Eden, they not only hid their physical bodies, they also hid their hearts from God. In the cool of the day, God comes to His creation and asks them, “Where are you?” (Genesis 3:9) This phrase in Hebrew is “ayeka” which is a lament and a question.

The latest Five Heart Podcast aired on a special night with guest Fred Sacco joining hosts Greg and Minnie. The crew opened with lighthearted banter about past “Five Heart Theater” skits, Fred's infamous wig mishap, and even a tangent on “boob lights” and haboobs before settling into football talk. With Nebraska's season opener just days away, excitement and cautious optimism filled the discussion. Fred, typically a pessimist, admitted he was at an “eight out of ten” on the excitement scale, while Greg claimed to be unwaveringly positive despite occasionally playing the “angry co-host” role. Conversation turned to Matt Rhule's third season, Nebraska's upgraded staff—including new coordinators and special teams coach Mike Ekeler—and roster additions like wide receiver Dane Key, who was voted a team captain last week. The trio analyzed the offensive line depth chart, raised concerns about protection, and discussed potential breakout players. They also previewed Cincinnati, noting standout defensive tackle Dontay “the Godfather” Corleone, quarterback Brandon Sorsby, and the Bearcats' recent practice facility struggles. Predictions varied, but all agreed Nebraska should handle Cincinnati if the offensive line holds. The episode closed with optimism, jokes about Cracker Barrel rebranding, and the promise of another lively season of Husker football.

But we owe it to you the viewers to get the best volleyball writer in the state on back on the show, Corn Nation's very own Beth Merrigan. We will discuss 2025 expectations under new Nebraska Head Coach Dani Busboom Kelly, the new volleyball super league and Husker connection up in Omaha, and even the recent alumni game, which is always a fun event. When we get into the football conversation, there's discussion about the final preparations for next week's season opener against Cincinnati. We will get into some of the press conferences of the week. And while the first game of the season won't be played at Memorial Stadium, we'll talk about the new Husker-branded beer that will be offered in Lincoln this year. We'll also talk about field and stadium names, just to unleash a little fury that I personally don't foresee us ever having to worry about.

To read a short encapsulation of episode #81, go to pages 28-29 of Keeping Heart. We are created to BE, DO, and HAVE In order to live fully, love deeply, and lead well lives that leave behind good legacy, we must: admit that we don't control how life works. we don't have power to change how we are created as relational creatures. We only find fulfillment by living fully in relationship with ourselves others God (The Voice of the Heart by Chip Dodd) Surrendering to the process of how we are created occurs through three developmental movements: Being - who we are created to be as relational creatures. We are created 99.9% like everyone else on an emotional and spiritual level. We seek connection through feeling, needing, desiring, longing, and hoping. We are created to respond to life accordingly. Doing - what we are created to do by participating in the actions of producing, shaping, making and caring about creating “good.” We take action in daily life by using our internal awareness; we are “response-able.” Having - what we are created to experience if we live according to how we are created. We have relationships, connection, provision, bounty, and prosperity. We risk giving ourselves to and attaining the experiences of life that create relational and experiential fulfillments. Be-Do-Have vs Do-Have-Become If a person is raised in an environment that diminishes his/her essential makeup and places too much emphasis on performance in order to be accepted, the person's worth becomes wrapped up in the constant need for approval of others and in competition with others.

KEY TAKEAWAYSSelling is about helping people make progress, not just pushing a product.People hire products to do a job—understanding the “why” behind decisions is key.Money isn't the biggest motivator—respect, fulfillment, and alignment matter more.Employees know early if a job fits; leaders must notice and act accordingly.Negotiating the scope of work, not just pay, leads to greater satisfaction.Job satisfaction increases when roles match a person's energy—not just skill set.}Hiring for strengths, not idealized roles, builds healthier teams.HIGHLIGHT QUOTESMoney is not the motivator—it's respect, fulfillment, and making progress.There are people out there who love to do the stuff that you suck at.Don't settle. Look inward. Find what you're great at and passionate about.If you just change that ratio to 50/50, you don't even think you're working.

It can be used as a daily form of orienting yourself for the day ahead of you or a book to read cover to cover. Please visit chipdodd.com to download the free resource, The Spiritual Root System. This resource describes and illustrates the specifics of each “root” of how we are created as feeling, needing, desiring, longing, hoping people who seek to live fully in relationship with ourselves, with others, and with God. Spiritual Rot System (SRS) = Feelings - Needs - Desire - Longings - Hope Basic premise of The Spiritual Root System: Feed the roots of a tree, it will grow to produce much fruit. Moving the metaphor to human behavior, a child reaches out to be affirmed as belonging and mattering by connecting to his/her caregivers. The need to belong and matter is met by his/her caregiver responding by reaching back and affirming and attending to the child's heart, made up of feelings, needs, desire, longings, and hope. This process grows the child's confidence in being created as a feeling, needing, desiring, longing, and hoping creature. Through the confidence of being able to depend on connection, the child grows into a competent human being, who can use his/her mind to express their heart's makeup as they grow into their giftedness. Every human being is gifted and the world is in need of the “fruits” of those developed gifts. Understanding the connections of the roots: Reading the “roots” from left to right: Feelings awaken a person to needs. Needs connect to desire within the heart Desire moves a person to longings Longings draw a person toward hope. Hope will return a person to feelings; hope is wishing or planning to achieve something a person doesn't know for sure will happen. Hope requires the action of risk, which circles back to the need to deal with feelings. The Voice of the Heart and Needs of the Heart offer specific details about The Spiritual Root System, as does this podcast Living with Heart: From Birth to Death.
