Book a call with Coach Frank - https://www.rebuiltrecovery.com/apply   In episode 221 of The Rebuilt Man, Coach Frank discusses the struggles high-performing men face with pornography addiction. He reveals ten brutal truths that keep these men stuck, including the masking of pain through success, the illusion of control that porn provides, and the isolation that prevents them from seeking help. The episode emphasizes the need for emotional maturity, vulnerability, and a redefinition of masculinity to overcome these challenges and find true pleasure in life.     Takeaways Success masks deeper emotional pain.   Porn is often rationalized as a harmless outlet.   Control in life can lead to addiction to porn.   Isolation prevents men from seeking help.   Emotional maturity is crucial for overcoming urges.   Busyness can hide internal emptiness.   Perfectionism creates fear of vulnerability.   Accountability is essential for high performers.   Redefining masculinity is necessary for growth.   True pleasure comes from presence, not pornography.

http://www.sherylkline.com/blogIn the latest Fearless Female Leadership interview, I had the privilege of speaking with Sandy Ball, Chief People Officer at Aspida, about navigating leadership in times of rapid change, standing firm in your values, and leading with authenticity. Sandy's candor and warmth made this conversation feel like a masterclass in people-centered leadership.Sandy's leadership journey is rooted in her natural curiosity about people and what drives them. She credits her early experience working at Disney for shaping her people philosophy — recognizing that every individual, no matter their role, wants to feel seen, heard, and valued. This belief has guided her through a career spanning multiple industries and leadership transitions.We talked about what it means to lead in today's environment where uncertainty is constant, and the courage it takes to stay aligned with your values when navigating tough organizational dynamics. Sandy spoke openly about the importance of creating psychological safety, building cultures of accountability without fear, and knowing when to take the risk of speaking up.Sandy also highlighted how, as women leaders, we often feel the pressure to prove ourselves in every room. Her advice? Prepare relentlessly, trust your instincts, and build genuine relationships — the kind where you can be both strong and vulnerable.Key take-aways from the interview:0:01:48 – Sandy's early career at GE taught her the foundational importance of making people feel valued at every level of an organization.0:05:54 – Leadership is about building trust and creating psychological safety so people can speak up, make mistakes, and learn.0:09:09 – Leading through change requires relentless clarity about your values and a willingness to have difficult conversations.0:12:57 – In moments of fear or doubt, preparation and surrounding yourself with trusted advisors are critical.0:16:21 – Building accountability cultures isn't about fear; it's about clear expectations, consistency, and kindness.0:19:34 – Navigating organizational politics with integrity means knowing when to stay quiet, when to push, and when to walk away.0:22:53 – As a woman in executive leadership, you don't have to over-prove yourself — show up prepared, be curious, and let your results speak.0:27:26 – The best leaders create personal connections with their teams, seeing people as whole humans, not just job titles.0:31:19 – Saying “I don't know” as a leader is a strength, not a weakness; it models vulnerability and invites collaboration.0:35:07 – Personal growth often comes from the moments you say yes to what scares you most.If you're interested in being featured on the Fearless Female Leadership podcast, or you're a leader looking to gain clarity on ‘what's next', how to build more cohesive and high-performing teams, and lead with greater confidence and influence, let's have a confidential conversation.Cheering you on always! – Sheryl

What do you do when a team hits its numbers—but the culture is crumbling from the inside? In this candid roundtable episode, Christine Courtney is joined live in the studio by longtime collaborators Blanca and Tom to tackle two leadership conundrums that managers everywhere will recognize: the high-performing but toxic team, and the rock-solid employee who's resisting growth.Together, they explore how leaders can shift team dynamics without compromising results, the difference between healthy banter and harmful behavior, and how to handle employees who just want to “stay in their lane.” With stories, frameworks, and plenty of laughter, this conversation is full of the kind of honest, practical insights Christine is known for.If you've ever wondered how to nurture both performance and psychological safety—or how to handle a steady employee who's hit their ceiling—you won't want to miss this one.

 Building a diverse team doesn't automatically lead to better performance — and without the right environment, it can even create new challenges. In this episode, Teri is joined again by leadership and team performance expert Henrik Bresman to explore why psychological safety is the key to unlocking the true potential of diverse teams. We'll also discuss practical steps leaders can take to foster belonging, innovation, and resilience in today's uncertain environments. Resources:Episode 174: Teams in Transition with Henrik BresmanX-Teams: How to build teams that lead, innovate, and succeedX360 and XChange simulationProfessor Bresman's LinkedInHarvard Business Review article with Amy Edmonson: To Excel, Diverse Teams Need Psychological SafetySloan Management Review Article with Debra Ancona: Turn Your Teams Inside OutConnect on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/teri-m-schmidt/Get 1-on-1 leadership support from Teri here: https://www.strongleadersserve.com/coachingSet up an intro call with Teri: https://calendly.com/terischmidt/discoverycall

In this episode of On Boards, hosts Joe Ayoub and Raza Shaikh welcome Lynn Clarke, an experienced leader in family board governance who has served on more than a dozen family and private equity-backed boards including as an independent chair and lead director. Lynn is also a strategic advisor and mentor and has served on boards spanning from beverage and food services to e-commerce and manufacturing.  Lynn has mentored next generation board members and leaders throughout her career and  was named the Private Company Director of the Year by National Association of Corporate Directors in 2022. She also serves as one of three judges for Deloitte's best managed private company awards program.   Key Takeaways 1. Interviewing for a board role With years of experience serving on boards, Lynn advises aspiring board members to carry a passion for the business, its products and what the company does. It's important to understand why you want to serve on a board, what value you add and what new perspectives you believe you will bring. She advises to make these points clear when you are interviewing for a board seat.  2. New boards vs. existing boards Newly formed boards offer a unique opportunity to build the culture, rhythm, and structure of governance from the ground up, but its success is dependent on the principal shareholder(s), who will define the culture of the board and company. Shareholders set the tone. 3. Knowing when it's time to leave a board or offboard a member Having the self-awareness is key to knowing when it's time to leave. Lynn suggests asking yourself, “am I still a good fit?” and “do I like what I'm doing on this board?”, “Am I enjoying the discussions at the board meeting?”, “Do I feel as though I am contributing to the growth of the company?” If the answers are no, maybe you need to consider stepping out.  Offboarding a member is one of the challenging aspects of board governance, especially in close-knit or long-tenured groups. It requires direct but respectful conversations from the lead director, board chair, or governance chair.  Whether a board member is being asked to leave due to performance issues or company changes, Lynn recommends treating it like a celebration and acknowledgement of the person's service on the board, almost like a retirement.  4. Board evaluations make it easier to provide ongoing feedback Even private and early-stage boards benefit from formal assessments. Annual board effectiveness and peer evaluations help surface underlying issues in board dynamics and performance. Peer evaluations can be sensitive for company boards, so Lynn suggests introducing different types of evaluations in parts.  Quotes “ABARTA Coca-Cola was one of the first family-owned businesses I know to really think about independent governance. There were a majority of independent directors on a board, had a high quality strategic plan that is really a living, breathing document and a good family council or an ownership council. Those are the three things that take a business from Gen 1 or 2 into 3, 4, 5, 6, and beyond.”  ”I take my commitments to the companies and the families that I work with 100% seriously the same way that I did in running a company or working for a Fortune 50.  When you join a board, you are committed to that organization. You're a fiduciary. Why would you do this unless you really wanted to help make an impact, and the only way you can make an impact is to take what you do seriously.”   ”The first thing you need to think about when you've been approached about joining a board: can I really make a contribution? I also think passion for the business is really important, passion for the product, the service and what the company does is really important.” “ It's important when you're on a newly formed board to think about what you know from boards that have been around for a while, and how you apply those learnings to help support the formation and the development of the new board.” “Do I enjoy the conversations? Am I feeling like it's a good fit?” And no matter how many years you've been on the board “do you like what you're doing?"   Links Four Key Questions to Ask Yourself How to Be an Exceptional Director Board Refreshment — When Is It Time? getonaboard.com   Guest Bio Lynn has extensive experience in family board governance, having served on more than a dozen family and PE boards as Independent Chair/Lead/Director. She also is a Strategic Advisor & Mentor to Family Board Chairs for Vitamix and for a Coca-Cola Bottler. And Lynn has mentored next generation board members & leaders.

The staff at Yates Center Health and Rehabilitation were riding high after learning in early March that their humble one-story nursing home in eastern Kansas was the state's highest rated. The team had celebrated a third-straight five-star survey not long before. But an out-of-control grass fire that swept across the prairie the afternoon of March 14 dramatically changed the fortunes of the facility, its staff and residents. The fire encroached on the brick nursing home with little time to prepare, leaving Yates Center Health and Rehab a total loss within an hour. Nikki Jacobs, the building's former administrator, still lives in the town of Yates Center and happened to be on scene within minutes. Now serving as a regional vice president for the provider's parent company, Mission Health Communities, Jacobs rushed to help in the evacuation after getting calls about the fire from family members as the danger became quickly apparent to those in the close-knit community. Staff and volunteers were able to rescue 37 residents swiftly, with the fire ultimately sending just two people, including a hospice patient, to the hospital for ongoing care. In this episode, Jacobs recounts the early hours on site, how emergency preparedness plans worked — pillows were a key tool — and future plans for a facility that is beloved in its community. While still determining how and when they can rebuild, Jacobs said Mission is committed to reuniting the team that enabled great quality and an incredible emergency response.

In this week's episode we're unpacking one of the most overlooked strategies in business growth: your leadership DNA. Scaling a business isn't just about strategy—it's about how you lead, how you communicate expectations, develop your team, and create an environment where excellence isn't just encouraged but expected. Leadership isn't a title; it's the foundation of your company's growth, sustainability, and long-term impact. Every leader has a distinct style, whether they recognize it or not. Understanding your natural leadership tendencies allows you to build a business that operates with clarity and momentum, rather than one that constantly feels like an uphill battle. Strong leadership isn't just about knowing your strengths—it's about identifying where you need support. High-performing leaders don't fit a single mold, but they do share key traits that set them apart. In this episode, we'll break down how to refine your leadership style so you can lead with confidence, develop a team that thrives, and scale your business with intention.

Chrissy Fleming: The Role of Trust and Fun in High-Performing Agile Teams Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. For Chrissy, success as a Scrum Master means fostering high-performing teams that solve valuable problems. She emphasizes that while this sounds simple, it requires building trust, establishing accountability, and maintaining a commitment to continuous improvement. A key indicator of success is when teams naturally have fun together, reflecting their comfort and psychological safety. Featured Retrospective Format for the Week: Simple and Team-Led Chrissy advocates for simple retrospective formats that encourage team participation, particularly those led by team members rather than the Scrum Master. She recommends using tools like Easy Retro and MURAL for remote sessions, emphasizing the importance of individual reflection time before group discussion and creating a safe space by acknowledging personal mistakes.
