Dr. Laura welcomes Hillary Rideout and Steve Brierley to Where Work Meets Life™ to talk about inspiring better humans and their new book on the subject. Hillary and Steve previously collaborated on “Being a Better Human Teenager” and that book and its reception led to their new follow-up book, “Inspiring Better Humans”. Dr. Laura explores why Steve and Hillary are drawn to inspiring young people, their thoughts on making a difference, and how having a purpose can change lives.Steve and Hillary work together in the Better Human Group, a project that fuelled their first book, and one of the discoveries they share is that a common factor among the profiled teenagers was very involved parents. They discuss how having a purpose and believing in the ability to offer something to the world positively impacts everyone, not just teenagers. The message in their books resonates with teens and parents alike and has inspired purposeful action in classrooms, which is part of the solution to combating mental illness in young people. Dr. Laura's conversation with Steve and Hillary opens a window into the lives of extraordinary teens and caring parents and how any one of us can tap into our ability to change the world for the better.“These kids truly felt like they could have an impact on the world. And they did. And that was very motivating to the kids in the class who were reading the stories and then actually creating their own plan to do something similar” Hillary Rideout“To me, the message is very clear. And I think it is that when you do something to help somebody, you also help yourself. And for me, if we can get this message out to others, I think it would be just an incredible impact.” Steve BrierleyAbout Steve Brierley:Over the past 20 years, Steve has held progressive positions in corporate training, talent management and executive leadership development in corporate and post-secondary sectors.While working in California, Steve was the General Manager of a multi-national corporate training organization that focused on delivering IT skills and leadership development for Fortune 100 organizations and government agencies.After four years in the USA, Steve returned to Canada and joined SAIT's corporate training department in the role of Corporate Learning Advisor, followed by the role of Director of Executive Education at the University of Alberta School of Business. He then joined the energy sector as Group Lead, Corporate Training & Talent Management at Encana Inc., followed by Director of Executive Development & Talent Management at Enbridge, Steve then joined Canadian Tire as Associate Vice President of Talent Management.

My challenge for you today, listener: how many giggles did you hear in the duration of the episode?   In today's episode of The Found Podcast with Molly Knuth, you'll hear one of only a handful of in-personal interviews I've ever conducted for the podcast. The level of fun and depth and love in the room is palpable as I sit down with an inspirational woman in business, author, coach, speaker, MKM client, and most importantly, my friend, Lindsay Leahy.   Though she's been on the podcast in the past with her bestie and business partner at The Restoration Project Brooke Fitzgerald in Episode 66 Living, Leading, and Working with Meaning, in today's episode we talk about not just their business, but also the writing of her new book Take It All Apart. The Restoration Process At The Restoration Project, their team of leadership coaches walks their clients, whether individuals, teams, or entire organizations through their signature process of: Building Connection: to self, others, and something greater. Restoring Intention: explore and define identity, vision, intention, and meaning, then build a plan. Inspiring Action: establish new practices, systems, rituals, and routines. Writing a Book As someone who has always enjoyed writing, Lindsay says that she faced challenges she wasn't expecting when writing her first book:  Practically and tactically it was hard to do the writing. Sharing lived experience was hard at times. “What if people think this sucks?” Due to her identity as a writer, Lindsay shares that it feels strange to put her words and writing style on display for the world. Regardless of the struggles it presented, Lindsay shares that writing Take It All Apart has resulted in her feeling more poised in her own practice, more refined in her process of coaching and writing. Connect with Lindsay Lindsay Leahy is a proud wife, daughter, auntie, and friend. She is passionate about Jesus, hugs, dreams, adventures, and deep conversation. She is the creator of the blog Grit, Gratitude, and Grace and the founder and Dream Builder at The Restoration Project, a women-owned coaching and consulting practice that provides experiences, programs, and services to improve organizational health, team and leadership effectiveness and individual well-being.   Lindsay is the author of Take it All Apart, debuting October 2024.

In Season 7, Episode 11, host Sarah Thorne and cohost Jeff King, National Lead of the Engineering With Nature (EWN) Program, US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), conclude their in-depth conversation with Katharine Hayhoe, Chief Scientist of The Nature Conservancy (TNC). In Part 3 of our special three-part series, Katharine talks about her role as an advocate and her mission to inspire others to take action on climate change. Her bottom line is that you don't have to be a top climate scientist to make a difference – we can all get involved. As a scientist, Katharine is an advocate for understanding the social science of how humans interact with information. “So often we physical and natural scientists feel like: ‘Oh, you just tell people the truth. Surely, they'll do the right thing, right?' Well, what social science tells us is no. If we haven't made that head to heart to hands connection, nothing is going to happen in the right direction, especially pushing against the accumulated inertia of our fossil-fuel based economy and society.”  Katharine notes the work of the Yale Program on Climate Change Communication, which finds that people's assumptions about what others think about climate change are usually wrong. “We assume that we care and very few other people do. We assume that we're doing things and nobody else is. We assume that nobody else is worried except me and my friends. But actually, they're already worried. They just don't know what to do. So, they don't want to talk about it.”Katharine's climate change advocacy is focused on talking about and encouraging other people to talk about climate change. She has initiated and supported multiple channels of communications on climate change, including her TED Talk in 2018, The Most Important Thing You Can Do to Fight Climate Change: Talk about It; her personal social media accounts and her Newsletter, Talking Climate; and her work with organizations like the Potential Energy Coalition and Science Moms. Jeff reflects on how inspiring and inclusive Katharine's message is, to include scientists, ecologists, engineers, social scientists, and artists.” As Katharine describes it, “We need people painting the pictures with words, with art, with music, with visual art, with spoken art, with every way we can.” Katharine plans to continue her tireless advocacy along many fronts. Her academic work is focused on developing and evaluating high-resolution climate projections and preparing for impacts and increasing resilience planning. As Chief Scientist of TNC, she is dedicated to supporting and advancing the work of TNC scientists. And she is going to continue her work with faith-based communities to advocate for climate action—including being the first plenary speaker at this year's World Evangelical Alliance annual meeting.Jeff closes by comparing her skill to another well-known Canadian, “That reminds me of Wayne Gretzky. He basically said, ‘I just skate to where I think or know that the puck is going to be.' That's exactly what you're saying here. We need to be thinking well out into the future and then leaning into those certain outcomes that we can anticipate and planning accordingly.” He adds, “Katharine, the message I am really drawn to is your ‘head to heart to hands' message. I want to use that and put it into practice in the Engineering With Nature program.  It is truly inspirational.”  This concludes our conversation with Katharine. We hope you enjoyed this special series!

Let's explore what inspires action. We emphasize the importance of the audience and the impact of influence -- with the rise of Stanley's $40 insulated cup to a $2,000 eBay sensation. The key to this transformation was shifting the target audience, but influence played a pivotal role. But audience alone isn't the whole story. The colossal revenue spike was driven by the potent force of influence. Two influencers played a pivotal role in changing the game for Stanley, demonstrating the tremendous impact of an endorsement from a trusted source, whether it's a blogger, a wellness leader, a coach, a mentor, or even a celebrity. These endorsements can translate into millions.So, while spending thousands on a cup might seem bananas, the underlying strategy is accessible to you. It's about embracing the power of digital ambassadors and influencers, who could become your most influential digital Social Street Team™. The key lies in taking that crucial first step towards harnessing the power of influence for your mission.  Think you've reached out to “everyone” in your network?

Inspiring Action on Oceans' Role in Climate Change

“The Ocean holds the keys to an equitable and sustainable planet. Join the revolution to unlock innovative ocean science solutions.” That is the opportunity and challenge posed by the Ocean Decade, the United Nations Decade of Ocean Science for Sustainable Development (2021–2030). Launched in January 2021, the Ocean Decade provides a convening framework for a wide range of stakeholders across the world to engage and collaborate outside their traditional communities to trigger nothing less than a revolution in ocean science. This is clearly a topic to explore on the Engineering With Nature® Podcast. In Season 6, Episode 3, host Sarah Thorne is joined by cohost Amanda Tritinger, Research Hydraulics Engineer in the Coastal and Hydraulics Laboratory of the Engineer Research and Development Center, US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE). Amanda was recently named Deputy Program Manager for EWN. Together they welcome Courtney McGeachy, Director of the Ocean Visions – UN Decade Collaborative Center for Ocean-Climate Solutions. Amanda and Courtney recently met at the State of the Coast Conference in Louisiana where they were on a couple of panels together, including one discussing nature-based solutions (NBS). Amanda thought Courtney would be an inspiring guest, and she certainly was. The Ocean Visions – UN Decade Collaborative Center is a partnership with Ocean Visions, Georgia Tech, and the Georgia Aquarium. Courtney describes Ocean Visions as a nonprofit startup focused on innovations and solutions for the fight against climate change. The UN's Ocean Decade is designed to take us from “the ocean we have to the ocean we want.” The Ocean Decade has seven desired “Ocean Outcomes,” including a clean ocean, a healthy and resilient ocean, a productive ocean, a predicted ocean, a safe ocean, an accessible ocean, and an inspiring and engaging ocean. “I think these are all important because they touch on not only everything that we need from a scientific lens but also what we need from a personal and community lens. There's no point in making the ocean safe and healthy if it's not accessible to all of us.”Courtney notes that there are a lot of different opportunities when it comes to nature-based solutions. “We want to make sure that we are creating opportunities to leverage these nature-based solutions to help fight climate change. I think Jane Lubchenco said it best. We were sort of trying to change the narrative from the ocean being a victim to the ocean being a solution to help us fight climate change.”In closing, Courtney summarizes her “call to action” for policy and decision makers. “Give innovations and solutions a fighting chance. With every solution, there are risks and side effects. So, I encourage policymakers to think of the ocean and climate crisis as a public health crisis because they're quite similar. I would also encourage policymakers to find the resources. Step up to the plate financially.”Amanda's call to action is to not put solutions into a box—consider this OR that. “Why not both?The huge takeaway from this conversation is that there are cobenefits. There's a toolbox—a suite of tools—there's no reason we can't combine them. There's redundancy in our resilient solutions that work together and, while protecting our communities, can also protect our citizens while helping to protect our ocean, which is our incredible resource that we might taking for granted right now.”For more information and resource links, please visit the EWN Podcast page on the EWN website at https://www.engineeringwithnature.org/ • Amanda Tritinger at LinkedIn• Courtney McGeachy at LinkedInThis show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/5872676/advertisement

Wouldn't it be better if we could just put the facts forward, create a convincing argument, use logical analysis, and therefore get people to change their behavior? Fortunately for most of us inspiring action through speech is not a magic trick but a deliberate and intentional effort.In this episode of the Leadership Project podcast, Mick Spiers interviews Monica Lunin, a consultant, facilitator, and speaker who has worked with high-level organizations such as ANZ, Macquarie Bank, EY, Qantas, and Suncor. Lunin is the co-owner and director of MojoLogic, a leadership and communication consultancy, and is the author of What She Said: The Art of Inspiring Action Through Speech. The two discuss Lunin's background and her book, which focuses on how to inspire action through effective communication.We learn from Monica that it is a combination of natural talent and learned skill when it comes to public speaking. Nervousness is a common obstacle, but it can be overcome. The greater threat is incongruent communication which can damage trust in a leader. A leader's view, values, style, and strategy should be consistent. Moreover, it is essential to modify a leader's communication style for different situations as long as the core of the message remains the same. Reading the room and understanding the current energy level to determine the appropriate tone for the speech is part of the preparation that most leaders fail to consider.Download this and understand the importance of an emotional hook that is the anchor of an effective speech: Monica Lunin's Social Media: Website: https://www.mojologic.com.au/LinkedIn:  linkedin.com/in/monicaluninThe Leadership Project is now pleased to partner with the Lighthouse Group.

Peta Wittig is the General Manager for Phillip Island Nature Parks, an organization that focuses on conservation and research funded by their remarkable visitor attractions. After starting her career at the age of 17 on the opening team for a local aquarium, Peta fell in love with startups and aquatic wildlife attractions. Peta gained incredible experience by traveling the world and helping bring various aquariums and wildlife attractions to life in her journey leading to Phillip Island. In this interview, Peta takes her years of experience to teach us about inspiring action, being your authentic self, and knowing your purpose.    Inspiring Action   "Inspiring people to act is about making a connection."   Entertainment and education are much more synonymous than you might think. The balance of creating a fun environment where people can enjoy themselves whilst simultaneously creating a call to action isn't rocket science. By creating a connection through the world of entertainment, the doors are opened to insert a powerful message inspiring action within a person by simply letting them have fun.   Live animals are another key element of inspiring action, where it's important to maintain the balance of education and entertainment. Ultimately, animals are not there for people's entertainment, but should instead be used to help benefit the balance of education and enjoyment by having employees teach people about the unique aspects of wildlife and how we can protect it for years to come.  Being Your Authentic Self   "Your purpose is key to enjoying what you do and being authentic."   Being authentic is key to not only enjoying yourself, but also letting others enjoy you. When being your true self, your leadership and goals become much more transparent and can make you a leader worth following. By showing what your message is and what impact you want to make on the world, it creates a much more positive atmosphere and helps generate an aura of success.    By being authentic, you can break down barriers that stem from cultural differences and help bridge the gap between people with different backgrounds, something that leaders often struggle with. By maintaining the same goals and messages, it's never impossible to rally a team towards those objectives.  Knowing Your Purpose   "Your purpose is key to enjoying what you do and being authentic."   When you're doing something you enjoy, it's easy to get up in the morning and it's easy to be your authentic self. Enjoyment stems from your purpose, and your purpose creates your goals and impact you want to make on the world. By creating and recognizing your purpose, it's easy to become a natural leader and enjoy what you do.   Knowing your purpose is key to being happy and being your authentic self. Without knowing your purpose, it's impossible to work towards your goals that should stem from that purpose. To learn more about Peta's purpose, you can visit penguins.org.au.

Leaders across the globe are beginning to realize that the biggest thing stopping us from taking action on climate change isn't a lack of capacity or technical solutions. It's a lack of engagement. Of historical and cultural context. Of connection to people and place. No one wants to have climate action done to them. They want to play a role in creating solutions. They need to see themselves, their homes, their businesses and their families reflected in goals and strategies. Of course, the best (and possibly only) way to create that kind of engagement is with stories. That's why I'm so excited to have Jeff Biggers, founder of the Climate Narrative Project,  join me for this episode. Jeff draws on decades of experience as a journalist, oral historian and author to help communities shape new narratives on climate change and regenerative solutions. As a global leader in climate change communications, he's worked with groups ranging from the elite of Silicon Valley to small towns devastated by broken economic and social systems. His narrative change work has been featured in the New York Times and Chicago Tribune  - as well as on NPR and MSNBC.In our conversation, Jeff shares some beautiful and powerful stories about how he works with leaders and communities to help them create a vision of an "ecopolis" where they'd like to live in the future – then reverse engineer or backcast it to figure out what stories they need to bring to life to make it happen. Here are a couple of articles about his ecopolis work: https://artistsandclimatechange.com/2018/12/06/shaping-new-climate-narratives-why-a-journalist-historian-turned-to-theatre-for-climate-stories/https://thesolutionsjournal.com/2017/01/15/ecopolis-iowa-city-envisioning-regenerative-city-heartland/Jeff also shares critical insights about what's stopping municipalities and communities from being able to move ahead on climate action and offers tangible ideas about what we can do right now to get unstuck. (Hint - it's to hire a climate storyteller!)Jeff's approach works across cultures, continents and communities, and generates co-benefits that go well beyond mitigation and adaptation.

But as it turned out, it could be healed. 28 years of living without electricity and running water gave her a relationship with the elements (and the natural world they create) that very few people in the industrial world have.

When it comes to telling stories with data, Cole Knaflic is ahead of the curve. In October 2010, she wrote a best-selling book called storytelling with data: a data visualization guide for business professionals. That book led to the creation of storytelling with data, an agency that helps businesses communicate more effectively using data, and she’s since followed-up with another best-seller: storytelling with data: let’s practice! Prior to her current role, Cole served as a people analytics manager at Google, was the owner and chief consultant at Insight Analytics, and held several positions at Washington Mutual, among other positions. In our chat, we covered: Why sharp communication skills are integral to telling stories with data The skills data people need to effectively communicate with data Who Cole thinks you should run your presentations by first, and the specific colleagues you should be sharing them with Why it’s important to practice presentations in informal settings first How looking at data in different formats can help you build more effective presentations The differences between exploratory and explanatory data analysis in the context of storytelling The important role of diction when presenting data Cole’s opinions on the skills many modern workers need around data storytelling Why data visualization and the ability to tell stories is not a nice-to-have skill What Cole’s approach to preparing for a presentation looks like and the format she uses to kick off the process Resources and Links Designingforanalytics.com/seminar Twitter: @Storywithdata. Company website: Storytellingwithdata.com Quotes from Today’s Episode “I've always really enjoyed that space where numbers and business intersect and enjoy how we can use numbers to get to understand things better and make smarter decisions.” — Cole “If you're the one analyzing the data, you know it best. And you're actually in a unique position to be able to derive and help others derive greater value from that data. But in order to do that, you have to be able to talk to other people about it and communicate what you've done to technical audiences and to non-technical audiences.” — Cole “When it comes to communicating effectively with data, you can't take out the human part. That's the part where things can either succeed or fail.” — Cole “There's no single right way to show data. Any data can be graphed a ton of different ways. And so when we're thinking about how we visualize our data, it really means stepping back and thinking about what sort of behavior we’re trying to drive in our audience. What do we want them to see in this? And then it often means iterating through different views of the data, which is also a fantastic way just to get to know your data better because different views will make observations easier or less easy to see.” — Cole “As soon as we try to draw attention to one aspect of the data or another, it actually makes any other potential takeaways harder to see.” — Cole “Words are very important for making our data accessible and understandable.” — Cole “Depending on the visualization, what you're doing is you're teaching yourself not to assume that the information is necessarily clear.

He is known as the Giving Day Guy who drives measurable increases in online donations for non-profits by hosting and producing live video content. I met Chris in Social Media Marketing World in San Diego and when I heard about his story I just knew I had to bring him to chat. He shares with us how he helps raise millions of dollars for hundreds of charities through live streaming video. We also unpack what makes these events so impactful in moving people to take action and what you can do in your own business or non-profit to grow your own reach and impact. We will also learn more about his equipment and the tools he uses for his live streaming started and the gear you’ll need to get you started.

Susan DeVore has been in and around the healthcare industry for most of her life – long before she became president and CEO of Premier Inc., a company that unites an alliance of more than 4,000 hospitals and health systems and approximately 165,000 other providers and organizations to transform healthcare. It’s a little-known fact that Susan’s roots at Premier date back to her childhood when her father, a biomedical engineer, worked for a predecessor to the company. After working at Ernst & Young – including time as a partner and senior healthcare industry management practice leader, among other roles – she got the call to interview at Premier. No one was aware of Susan’s company legacy at that time, but after she joined, there were longtime employees who remembered her attending the company picnic or other gatherings as a young teenager. Susan’s lifelong focus on improving the healthcare system and her current role at Premier – driven by insight from such a vast network of care delivery organizations – combine to give her an incredibly valuable perspective for solving healthcare’s biggest challenges. Premier’s network enables it to maintain a dataset that encompasses roughly 45% of patients in the US. Those data inform Susan’s leadership and the decisions the company makes to help solve cost and quality challenges and develop a unique model of care delivery. At the HIMSS Global Conference & Exhibition in February Susan will be delivering a keynote session titled, “Healing from Within: Leading Change, Inspiring Action.” But you can hear her first on this episode of Breaking Health Podcast. Susan’s conversation with Keith Figlioli covers a number of pressing topics including: • Reducing Waste in the System – Susan talks about how there’s still 30% waste in the system and three times unwanted variation in care delivery, and how these challenges can’t be solved by insurance companies or the government. She believes the only way to tackle them is head-on, from within the system, and shares her thoughts about how data, technology, and influence within healthcare systems are all critical to driving transformation.• Changing the Social System – the decades-old social system that the healthcare industry is built upon is one that’s difficult to change. But it’s starting to change in experimental ways, driven by innovators and early adopters who recognize that it’s unsustainable for healthcare costs to grow at twice the rate of the economy, and who want to do something about it. Susan talks about how and why it’s easy to stay in a fee-for-service world and shares her thoughts on the main barriers to change.• The Path to Alternative Payments – as Susan sees it, the big thing that’s holding health systems back from adopting alternative payment models is uncertainty. If providers that haven’t adopted or are only experimenting in alternative payments think there’s a chance that fee-for-service might last longer, it’s much harder for them to make the leap. However, she talks about her view of federal regulations and how the “training wheels are coming off” to force change more quickly.• The Next Big Thing: Making Big Data Small – while increasing access to healthcare data is playing an important role in transforming the industry, one big challenge right now is the sheer volume of data that exists. Susan talks about how the next big thing on the horizon will be figuring out ways to make vast amounts of data more usable. She talks about how to get “small data” into the workflow so it’s available for physicians and patients to use in making informed decisions that change the care being delivered.To hear Susan DeVore talk about these topics and more, listen to this episode of Breaking Health Podcast.

Nikki Lewallen fosters connections and promotes networking as CEO of Rainmakers, an Indianapolis firm she joined in 2007 that builds bridges within Indiana’s business community. She also shares her expertise on the Gut + Science podcast that started in April this year. ----- Do you know someone who lives for the weekend and hates the thought of Mondays? If so, learn how Nikki Lewallen inspires people to live life for Mondays. She enjoys connecting people and enhancing corporate culture by helping others appreciate their contributions as valued members of their companies. In this episode, Nikki encourages managers and leadership to discover what motivates staff and how we can inspire them to find deeper meaning in their work. This motivational speaker and philanthropist shares her passion for putting systems in place that allow us to gain valuable feedback. She encourages the use of an assessment tool managed by a third party to encourage higher participation and honest responses. When we solicit feedback from employees, we must act upon it rather than file it away. We need to do this regularly, perhaps once each quarter. If we plan to inspire action and enhance our corporate culture, we need to reassure those willing to share their opinions that they will be valued, disclosed in a way that assures confidentiality, and will lead to change. We must do more than go through the motions. Nikki encourages intentional acts of kindness and discusses the value of seeking mentors. The messages from this podcast should offer inspiration for those throughout the organization. I hope you enjoy this episode!

I truly believe that our bodies tell us when we need rest or just a mental break. But many times, we are too busy to notice the signs. As we near the end of the year, many of us will spend time reflecting on this year, which can be a scary and dangerous thing.
