Allie and Adam get nostalgic about the rush of closing a deal — and why the feeling of giving someone their dream job never gets old. 29:00 – Navigating Transform 2026 as a First-Timer Allie shares her experience at her first Transform conference and Adam offers tips for making the most of big industry events. 31:00 – What's on Your Playlist? The episode wraps with a music moment — Wet Leg, Alabama Shakes, Chance the Rapper, Fred Again, and a surprise Luke Combs convert. Key Takeaways: 1. Culture of No Surprises Is the Highest Form of Employer Trust The biggest damage to candidate and employee trust comes from being sold a version of a company that doesn't match reality. Allie's north star is radical transparency — leaders sharing hard truths when they can, so employees are never blindsided. 2. Company Values Must Be Built, Not Announced Values that stick don't come from a poster or a company-wide email. They require executive sponsorship, employee pressure-testing, phased rollout, and genuine adoption planning. Anything less is performative — and people know it. 3. Agency Recruiting Is a Training Ground That Makes You Better The discipline of hitting numbers, showing up every day, and working in a high-accountability environment gives agency recruiters a foundation that in-house roles rarely replicate. Allie credits that grind for making her the people leader she is today. 4. Follow Your Passion Outside of Work — It Might Become Your Career Allie's move to SoundCloud started with volunteering for Sofar Sounds on evenings and weekends. Pursuing what you love outside your day job builds relationships, skills, and opportunities you can't manufacture inside an office. 5. Output Over Hours Is the Right Framework — With Guardrails Giving employees trust and flexibility tends to produce exceptional results. But it requires clear expectations, strong manager relationships, and a willingness to coach (or exit) people who aren't built for autonomous work environments. 6. Personalize the Benefits Conversation — Don't Just List the Package The best recruiters listen for what matters to each candidate and connect it to the right benefits. A pet owner lights up when you mention pet insurance. A candidate navigating a same-sex partnership in a complicated state wants to hear about legal concierge support. Benefits close competitive offers when they're presented personally, not generically. 7. L&D Investment Is a Signal of Company Values, Not Just a Perk SoundCloud's $1,600 annual learning and development stipend tells employees: we're invested in your growth, not just your output. For candidates choosing between comparable offers, this kind of benefit signals a culture that takes development seriously. 8. VP of People Is a Bridge Role — Between Managers, Talent, and Leadership Allie's job isn't to recruit or to set policy in a vacuum — it's to sit at the intersection of what managers need, what the talent team is finding, and what leadership is trying to build. The best people leaders are connectors and translators across all three. 9. Feeling Safe at Work Is Non-Negotiable — And Companies That Get It Win Allie's story of leaving a role where she didn't feel safe as a queer person — and finding belonging at Onward Search — is a reminder that psychological safety isn't a soft metric. It's a talent retention and acquisition advantage.

Trust and Inspire is the leadership model redefining how great leaders unlock the best in their people — so why are so many organisations still stuck in command and control?This episode is sponsored by Deel. Hire, manage and pay – anyone, anywhere: https://www.deel.com/nickdayhr/In this episode of @thehrldpodcast Nick Day is joined by Stephen M.R. Covey, bestselling author of The Speed of Trust and Trust and Inspire, and former President and CEO of the Covey Leadership Center, to explore why the old model of leadership has reached its expiration date and what it takes to build the kind of high trust culture that attracts, retains and inspires the best people.Drawing on decades of research and work with organisations across 55 countries, Stephen breaks down why trust is a learnable skill and not a personality trait, what it actually looks like to extend trust in remote and hybrid teams without losing control, and how leaders can move from merely motivating people to truly inspiring them.This conversation explores how inspired employees outperform engaged ones by 56%, why the shift from command and control to trust and inspire is the most important leadership move of our time, and what Warren Buffett, Satya Nadella and Eric Yuan all have in common as leaders.A must listen for HR leaders, people managers, L&D professionals, and anyone responsible for building culture and developing leadership capability inside their organisation.Enjoyed this?

You say you want to trust yourself more. To feel consistent, confident, and grounded. But then you don't follow through. Again. You avoid the thing, break your own promises and move a little farther away from building the life you say that you want. Worse yet, you slowly stop trusting yourself. In this episode, we're reframing self-discipline, because it's not about punishment or forcing yourself to be better. It's about devotion, and self-discpline being the highest form of self-love. If you've been stuck in cycles of starting and stopping or waiting to feel ready, this episode will show you why. And the real question becomes: What am I protecting myself from? In this episode, we're talking about: Discipline as devotion, not punishment Where avoidance can look like gentleness The fears underneath lack of follow-through How to rebuild self-trust through consistency Choosing yourself, one small action at a time Tangible tools to start to take action and build the self-discipline muscle RELATED EPISODES #352: The Subtle Ways Self-Abandonment Sneaks Up On Us #366: Self-Love, Loneliness & Learning to Like Yourself #277: Are You Waiting Around to Be Chosen?

What if the reason you're not healing, stabilizing, or moving forward isn't a lack of discipline—but the wrong kind of discipline for your physiology? In this episode, Dr. Connie Cheung explores the hardest truth she's had to learn: when chemistry turns hostile, effort no longer builds strength—it provokes collapse. Drawing from lived experience with kidney failure, immune sensitization, and clinical systems that don't speak to paradox, this episode reframes discipline through the lens of coherence, restraint, and nervous system intelligence. This is not a message about doing less. It's a message about doing what actually works—when the rules change. 1:09 – Paradox Capacity: A New Healing Framework 1:17 – Hostile Chemistry & Why Restraint Is Real Discipline 3:03 – When Trying Harder Starts Breaking You 5:40 – Nutrition & Hydration Paradoxes No One Talks About 8:01 – When Healing Feels Backward 9:57 – Paradox Capacity in Modern Medicine 11:02 – Why Uncertainty Feels Dangerous to the Nervous System 12:18 – What Paradox Capacity Is (and What It's Not) 14:03 – When Trying Harder Makes Symptoms Worse 14:45 – Reorientation: Slowing Down to Restore Coherence 15:52 – Why Medicine Is Fragmented — and Humans Suffer 16:52 – For Those With Unexplained or Persistent Symptoms 17:38 – From Fragmentation Back to Coherence 19:39 – Healing Is Reorganization, Not Effort Show Notes ➝ Why effort fails when chemistry is hostile ➝ The difference between discipline and provocation ➝ Paradox capacity: holding opposing truths without collapse ➝ Nutrition, hydration, and when "healthy" becomes harmful ➝ Why uncertainty feels dangerous—and how to stay oriented anyway ➝ Restraint as an advanced biological skill ➝ Listening as the beginning of coherence Be sure to subscribe to our podcast and YouTube channel so you never miss an episode of the EASE OS: Less Effort, More Power!

Welcome to the Money Confidence Podcast with Bre — the space where financial strategy meets spiritual alignment. In this powerful relaunch episode, Bre shares how becoming a mom, reconnecting with faith, and redefining integrity transformed her relationship with money — and how you can do the same. In this episode, you'll learn:
Last Saturday, our parish retreat was an astounding success! It was a day that will long be remembered, not merely for the crowd it drew, but for the spirit that filled the air. Nearly two hundred and fifty souls came together, united by joy and fellowship, as we launched our new parish Mission Statement: “To be faithful like Mary.”It was not an ordinary hunger that stirred among us. It was a deeper kind; it was the hunger of hearts longing to know the truth that nourishes the soul. We desired to understand why the Blessed Virgin, whose name adorns our parish walls and whose fiat still echoes through the centuries, holds such a luminous place in the life of the Church.Together we journeyed back into the early dawn of Christianity, walking beside the voices of our ancestors in the faith, the saints and scholars who bore the torch of truth when the world was just starting to hear the Good News of the Gospel. We listened to St. Ignatius of Antioch, who once knew St. Peter himself—a single heartbeat away from the words of Christ. And in that closeness, that living chain of witness, we discovered what the earliest Christians knew beyond doubt: that the Church was, from the very beginning, deeply and thoroughly Catholic.During the time of questions, one of our newest parishioners, a convert from Protestantism, raised a tender yet courageous question. “Why,” she asked, “do so many non-Catholic Christians accuse us of worshiping Mary? When we pray the rosary or sing to her, they say we take away from Jesus.”Our speaker, Joshua Charles, himself a convert and a man whose intellect burns with zeal for truth, answered with great clarity. He explained that since the 16th century, much of Protestantism has turned away from the Holy Mass as a true sacrifice. To them, it became a mere symbol, a sacred reenactment but not the very reality of Calvary made present again.Here lies the key to so much misunderstanding. For Catholics, the highest form of worship is sacrifice—the self-offering of Jesus Christ to the Father upon the altar. It is in this divine act that all our praises, prayers, and devotions find their meaning and their end. But if one no longer sees worship as sacrifice, then song and prayer become the summit. Anything else, like love for Mary, can seem a rival to Christ rather than a reflection of Him.Yet Mary's glory is no rival to His. She magnifies the Lord. Her faithfulness is the clear mirror that catches the sunlight of her Son. To be faithful like Mary is to let that same light pass through us, so that others, too, might see Christ shining more clearly in the world.And so, our retreat was more than an event; it was a quiet awakening—a rediscovery of what it means to be Catholic, to be faithful, to be, like Mary, utterly surrendered to the will of God. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

Why Self-Discipline Is the Highest Form of Self-LoveHave you ever felt torn between your ambitions as an entrepreneur and your dedication as a parent? In this deeply personal conversation, Ashley Hawks, founder of SOAR Groups, reveals the transformative journey that took her from childhood lemonade stands to building multiple successful businesses while raising two children.Ashley introduces a refreshing approach to entrepreneurship with her "Ready, Shoot, Aim" philosophy, challenging the perfectionism that keeps many aspiring business owners stuck in planning mode. "No business ever failed because they had too many sales," she shares, emphasizing that action trumps perfection every time.The heart of our discussion explores how self-discipline becomes the ultimate form of self-love, especially for high-achieving women. Ashley vulnerably shares her rock-bottom moment—working through early motherhood at an unsustainable pace until her body literally began shutting down. This crisis became the catalyst for her current success, teaching her to "sharpen her ax" rather than simply chopping harder.We dive into the fascinating parallel between entrepreneurship and video games, where each new level requires different skills and where the characters you meet along the way become crucial allies in later stages. Ashley explains how surrounding yourself with the right peer group—people outside your industry who understand your core values—can provide perspective impossible to gain on your own.For mothers balancing business ambitions, Ashley offers practical wisdom on involving children in your professional life, creating meaningful boundaries, and releasing the guilt that often accompanies success. Her mantra of taking bigger risks sooner will inspire anyone hovering at the edge of a bold decision.Whether you're an established entrepreneur, a mother juggling multiple priorities, or someone contemplating your first business venture, this conversation offers both the encouragement and practical strategies to help you reclaim your authentic self while building something meaningful in the world.Resources:EOSTraction: Get a Grip on Your Business the bookConnect with Ashley:LinkedIn: Ashley HawksIG: @soargroupsContact the Host, Kelly Kirk: Email: info.ryh7@gmail.com Get Connected/Follow: The Hue Drop Newsletter: Subscribe Here IG: @ryh_pod & @thekelly.tanke.kirk Facebook: Reclaiming Your Hue Facebook Page Credits: Editor: Joseph Kirk Music: Kristofer Tanke Thanks for listening & cheers to Reclaiming Your Hue!

This episode was originally released under Raw Health Rebel — and it's one of the most powerful, insight-packed conversations I've ever had.I'm joined by the brilliant Ian Watson — author of numerous highly regarded homeopathy books, founder of The Lakeland College, and a teacher in the wellbeing and personal transformation space for over 30 years. Ian is internationally and, since 2011, has been sharing the Three Principles understanding — helping people see that wellbeing is a constant within every human being.In this rich, wide-ranging conversation we cover susceptibility, healing, trauma, intention, provings, and why the great late Robin Murphy — Ian's own teacher — called acute prescribing “the highest form of homeopathy.” We explore how almost every chronic case begins with an acute, how miasms can be reframed as growth challenges for humanity, and why some people can change in an instant while others stay stuck.This isn't just about remedies — it's about the nature of transformation itself, and why insight, not information, is what truly creates lasting change.Key Takeaways:Ian's journey from classical homeopathy to the Three Principles understandingThe truth about susceptibility and how it shapes who gets sick and who stays wellWhy acute prescribing is the most preventative form of homeopathyHow miasms can be seen as opportunities for growth and evolutionThe role of insight in healing and why it works faster than you thinkIf you're ready for a conversation that connects the dots between the practical, the philosophical and the profoundly human, this is it.Resources Mentioned:Ian's website: Click hereThe Homeopathic Miasms - A Modern View by Ian Watson- USA, UK, AustraliaA Guide to the Methodologies of Homeopathy by Ian Watson - USA, UK, AustraliaWant the inside scoop on Lisa's game-changing Practitioner-level course launching in January 2026?

Matt Dawson is a six-time world-record-holding endurance and adventure athlete who, within a twelve-month period, climbed the highest peak on every continent, skied to the South Pole, trekked solo and unsupported across the Mojave Desert and Death Valley, and rowed across the Atlantic Ocean. Performing in the planet's harshest environments, he learned that his greatest obstacles don't originate in the outside world, but within himself. That life doesn't have to be a relentless battle against his deepest fears and shortcomings. His new book, Strength In Surrender beckons you to embrace a different path and reveals a harrowing truth: one of the greatest acts of courage is surrender. Surrender isn't giving in, giving up, or going along, but rather choosing to face and release our deepest fears in order to identify more productive ways of meeting our needs. It's a powerful, necessary step to living a life of greater purpose. Takeaways · Physical challenges can help in reconnecting with oneself. · Disconnection is a common issue in today's society. · Facing fears is essential for emotional release. · Reality is not as concrete as we believe it to be. · We have the power to shape our own reality. · Living with purpose is crucial for fulfilment. · Emotional pain can lead to significant breakthroughs. · The journey to finding purpose can take time. · Engaging in physical challenges can foster personal growth. Living a life of purpose can significantly improve mental health.. · Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. · No one is truly alone in their struggles; many share similar pains. · Embracing discomfort can lead to profound personal growth. · Focusing on the process rather than just the outcome is crucial. · Surrendering to the unknown can lead to new opportunities for growth. · Personal evolution is about learning to trust oneself and others.

They discuss how separating observation from judgment can lead to clearer understanding, better conversations, and stronger relationships both at work and in personal life.
I recorded this interview with Nathaniel Stinnett, the founder of the Environmental Voter Project, in the summer of 2016. While there are lots of differences between this election cycle and that of 2016, the ideas that Nathaniel shared remain relevant and important today. The Environmental Voter Project has dramatically expanded it's capacity and scope since 2016, and now has an expansive reach, with ground operations in 19 states and more than 10 million potential voters contacted.Earth to Humans has changed a lot since 2016 as well. When we released this episode, the podcast was still called “Eyes on Conservation” and I was the sole producer, churning out episodes almost every week. When I launched the podcast back in the fall of 2014, I imagined it as an outlet to share the audio from unused interviews originally recorded for various documentary projects, but it quickly evolved into something much more than that. I feel extremely fortunate to now have the opportunity to work with an amazing team of producers that bring a far more diverse and interesting slate of stories to the show than I would be capable of producing on my own. But when prompted to dig into the archives for this week's episode, I realized that our show's humble beginning took place almost exactly 10 years ago.So cheers to ten years of podcasting at the Wild Lens Collective! I hope that you enjoy this foray into our archives as much as I did! Happy voting.-Matt Podolsky Get full access to Earth to Humans Podcast's Substack at earthtohumanspodcast.substack.com/subscribe
Is people development truly the key to business success and societal impact? Join us as we welcome Catherine Allen, co-founder and Chief Impact Officer of AO People Partners, who passionately argues that it is. Catherine sheds light on the transformative power of intentional people development while advocating for a paradigm shift where developing interpersonal skills, such as emotional intelligence, becomes a strategic priority, especially during challenging times. We break down the essential soft skills into core mind skills and people skills. Catherine shares her insights on cognitive-based abilities like executive function, adaptability, and creativity, as well as emotional intelligence-derived skills such as empathy and active listening. Emphasizing the gap between knowledge and practice, Catherine underscores the significance of daily practice and supportive environments for skill development. Learn how these skills are best cultivated through consistent interactions and behaviors within organizations. Our discussion culminates in the creation of a growth-minded, development-centric culture. Catherine illustrates the vital role leaders play in modeling continuous learning and authenticity. She shares real-life examples, including a software company leader who turned project failure into a profound learning opportunity. Discover how fostering a growth mindset, embedding learning rituals, and normalizing a shared language around development can elevate both individual performance and organizational success. Dive into the practical steps leaders can take to embed development into the core of business strategy, ultimately contributing to a thriving workplace and society. What You'll Learn: • The importance of rethinking why and how organizations develop their employees. • Distinguishing between core mind skills and people skills. • The gap between knowing and doing. • How to create supportive environments to integrate these skills into everyday interactions. • Compelling real-life examples of putting these skills into practice. • Practical steps to foster a culture of development and continuous learning.
