What if the missing link to scaling your business isn't strategy or hustle—but buy-in?In today's episode, I sat down with Dave Garrison—Harvard MBA, former CEO, leadership strategist, and author of The Buy-In Advantage. Together, we unpack the real reason so many businesses struggle to scale: a lack of authentic team engagement and aligned leadership. From culture-building to communication, this episode is a masterclass in how to create a team that moves fast, works well, and stays committed—because they believe in the mission as much as you do.Whether you're a team of one or one hundred, these insights will reframe how you lead.What You'll Learn in This Episode:Why buy-in is more than just agreement—it's heart, gut, and brain alignmentThe hidden costs of poor team culture (and how it's secretly draining your business)Why most delegation fails—and how to fix itHow to ask better questions to unlock your team's geniusThe 7 ingredients of a sustainable, values-driven cultureHow to build trust, accountability, and performance—without micromanaging Key Takeaways:✔️Buy-in starts with you: Authentic leadership means modeling the culture you want to see.✔️Three is greater than seven: Too many priorities means no priorities. Focus is freedom.✔️Meetings should energize, not drain: Start with expectations, end with feedback, make space for participation.✔️Delegation requires clarity: Define the desired outcome, success criteria, and escalation agreements up front.✔️Culture already exists—you're either shaping it or letting it shape you.✔️Curiosity beats control: Great leaders ask questions. Let your team show you how they think. Timestamps:[00:00] – Introduction to Dave & the concept of buy-in[03:00] – What buy-in really means (and where it gets lost)[07:00] – How leadership is evolving post-pandemic[12:00] – Signs your company lacks buy-in[17:00] – Why entrepreneurs sabotage their own teams[23:00] – Questions that build buy-in and culture[30:00] – Delegation that actually works[37:00] – Prioritization: why less is more[44:00] – The secret to powerful employee reviews[48:00] – Defining and living your company values[55:00] – Seven key ingredients to building a buy-in culture[01:02:00] – Practical advice to start creating buy-in today[01:07:00] – Final wisdom: humility, curiosity, and co-creation Connect with DaveGet Dave's book: The Buy-In AdvantageBonus resources when you buy: 45 powerful questions to drive buy-inJoin The Alliance – The Relationship Beats Algorithms™ community for entrepreneurs scaling through connectionApply for 1:1 Coaching – Ready to build your business with sustainability, impact, and ease?Attend Live Events – Get in the room where long-term success is built: https://mindofgeorge.com/event/

Ep. 149. In this episode, I'm joined by transformational coach and Modern Priestess Nedjma for a raw, soulful conversation on the journey of self-discovery, healing, and authentic empowerment. We explore how many of us, especially women, are conditioned to people-please, perform, and shrink to fit into roles that were never made for us. Nedjma opens up about her transition from a traditional career in pharmacy to the world of coaching and personal growth, a shift sparked by a deep inner call to stop fitting in and start showing up fully.She also shares her signature method, the Sacred Undressing Journey, and how it helps women peel back the layers of societal conditioning and reconnect with their truest selves. We dive into the four archetypes of womanhood — Queen, Warrior, Lover, and Mystic — and what it means to embody them in everyday life. SegmentsThe root of people-pleasing and how to release itHow your relationships mirror your internal growthWhy self-acceptance is the gateway to empowermentThe four feminine archetypes and how to work with themThe power of letting go of perfectionism and embracing your full rangeWhy everyone's path to purpose and healing is uniquely their own "You were never meant to fit in. You were meant to remember who you are.” — NedjmaTune in for a liberating reminder that personal growth isn't about becoming someone else — it's about undressing everything that's not you.Nedjma's BioNedjma Belaid is a Modern Priestess & Mentor who empowers women to stop dimming their light to fit in, to be their true selves and shine their Goddess within so they can experience levels of love, joy, and fulfillment they never thought possible. A former pharmacist and Tony Robbins coach, she has studied various coaching & healing modalities, and was certified as a Clinical Hypnotherapist, NLP Master Practitioner, and was ordained as a yogic priestess.

Comments or feedback? Send us a text! Clinicians will often hear their clients express deeply felt needs, only to admit they've never shared them with their partner—usually due to fear of vulnerability or a defensive, adversarial dynamic that makes intimacy feel unsafe.  In today's episode, we are joined by Dr. James Cordova—Professor of Psychology at Clark University and creator of The Relationship Checkup—to discuss his new book, The Mindful Path to Intimacy. Dr. Cordova's book offers a powerful framework for understanding and transforming these relational patterns through the lens of mindfulness, compassion, and shared vulnerability.In our conversation, we explore:Why intimacy is often more terrifying than people expect—and why it's worth the riskHow mindfulness can serve as both a spiritual and relational practiceThe idea that attention is the most basic form of loveWhy many couples shift from infatuation to frustration, and what can be done about itHow interpersonal neurobiology helps us understand the push-pull of closeness and withdrawalWays to navigate shame, trauma histories, and fear of being fully seen in loveWhat distinguishes couples who flourish from those who simply coexist. Dr. James Cordova is a Professor of Psychology at Clark University and the creator of The Relationship Checkup, a pioneering, preventative intervention designed to assess and strengthen couples' relationships before problems escalate. He has led major research initiatives—including a $1.3M Department of Defense-funded RCT with Lt. Colonel Jeffrey Cigrang and a $1M NIH grant—demonstrating the model's effectiveness in both military and civilian populations. As founder and president of Arammu: The Relationship Checkup, Inc., Dr. Cordova is scaling this approach nationwide, training over 1,000 military counselors and integrating the model into primary care. He is the author of The Marriage Checkup, The Story of Mu, and The Mindful Path to Intimacy, the latter of which offers mindfulness-based tools for cultivating emotional and spiritual connection.To learn more about Dr. Cordova and his work, visit:https://relationshipcheckup.comOr check out his latest book, The Mindful Path to Intimacy, from Guilford Press.

You're not tired because you're weak. You're tired because the emotional architecture you built to survive is cracking underneath you. In this episode, Mischelle dismantles the surface strategies of stress management and exposes the real root of emotional exhaustion: fractures, not just patterns.  You've been praised for your calm, your strength, your wisdom. But behind the performance? You're unraveling. You've mastered emotional fluency for everyone else, but forgot how to be emotionally honest with yourself. You keep regulating, fixing, holding it all, and no one sees the cost. Or maybe… you've trained them not to.  This is not about coping better. It's about interrupting the performance of strength long enough to hear what your own soul is actually saying.  Inside this episode, you'll learn: Why most emotional advice masks the fracture instead of healing itHow to spot the difference between survival patterns and emotional integrityWhy naming your truth is the first step to nervous system repair and internal authorityHow to stop outsourcing care, and reclaim space to need, feel, and speak  This is emotional mastery, not as performance, but as liberation. Say what you've buried. Stop hiding your hunger behind strength. It's time to heal the fracture. Comment RESET now—this is where your Emotional Reset begins.

In this continuation of a dynamic conversation with Greg Francis and guest Brad Wolgamont, we unpack how to raise confident, respectful kids by creating a family culture built on standards, structure, and love. From screen limits and training eye contact to the power of a family constitution, Greg shares wisdom for any parent—no matter your starting point.

#342: Life is meant to be designed the way YOU want it, not what others want for you. Not for your parents, family, society's, etc. The problem?

Chanie offers practical strategies—and powerful mindset shifts—to help leaders reclaim their authority and redefine what it means to lead well.What You'll LearnThe impact of emotional exhaustion and over-functioning on female school leadersThe “double-bind” dilemma: being warm vs. being decisiveWhy noticing feels like a leadership burden—and how to distribute itHow rescuing becomes reactive leadership disguised as delegationThe importance of identity work, not just strategy, to break burnout cyclesHow to create rhythms, boundaries, and systems that protect your warmthSimple journaling prompts to rethink your leadership postureKey Insights1. Emotional Labor HurtsWomen in school leadership hold not only logistical responsibility but also the emotional pulse of the building—staff, parents, students. This leads to heightened emotional exhaustion compared to male counterparts.2. Warming Doesn't Mean WeaknessHormonal responses like “tend-and-befriend” push women to soothe and rescue rather than set boundaries and enforce standards. Warmth is powerful… until it becomes draining without structure.3. Rescue ≠ DelegationBringing in supplies or stepping in during a lesson might feel supportive—but if not shared, it's rescuing. True leadership distributes responsibility and builds capacity.4. “Noticing” Is the Hidden LoadYou see the trash that won't get emptied, the subtle shift in energy… and you carry it. That invisible “20%” needs leadership, not martyrdom. Build systems so teams learn to see.5. Boundaries Honor the MissionWarmth becomes weaponized when it's the only way you've learned to lead. When boundaries are in place, you're not being cold—you're protecting your mission from burnout.6. Identity Shifts MatterYour strategy is useless if your identity isn't aligned. If “rescue leader” stays in your identity, you'll recreate burnout cycles—even with perfect systems.Memorable Quotes“You were meant to build a school that holds you.” – Chanie Wilschanski“Excellence is built through rhythm, not martyrdom.” – Chanie WilschanskiWhy It Matters for School LeadersReclaim your authority and energyBuild team culture around shared responsibility, not dependencePrevent burnout through healthy boundaries and accountability systemsShift mental load so your presence enhances, not depletes, the communityResources & Lead MagnetExplore Leadership HQ coaching for ongoing support - schoolsofexcellence.com/consultSubscribe for future episodes on leadership rhythms, emotional clarity, and strategic systemsAbout Chanie Wilschanski & Schools of ExcellenceChanie Wilschanski leads Schools of Excellence with a passion for cultivating soulful, effective leadership through intentional rhythms.

Before Ron Robinson became social media's favorite cosmetic chemist, he had already built a varied career in beauty. In 1989, he was hired on the spot to formulate and develop products for Clinique and La Mer, under Estée Lauder. He formulated new SKUs and innovated products like Clinique's Turn Around Cream, which was one of the first products to use salicylic acid as a topical treatment gel. Despite his obvious aptitude for beauty science, he was on track to become a doctor like his brothers. To his parents' dismay, he dropped out of medical school but quickly found his footing in some of the most successful beauty labs. This experience is precisely why Hailey Bieber asked him to help lead RHODE, the billion-dollar brand, to success. His experience in the lab and engaging with consumers 1-1 also informed his decision to launch Beauty STAT. Ron holds a rare position as CEO, founder, and cosmetic chemist in Beauty STAT, and he's excited to continue innovating for a more knowledgeable consumer base.Tune in as we discuss:Tips on how to determine if luxury products are worth itHow he approaches developing products for melanated skinRecommendations on topical treatments for fine lines, wrinkles, and dark circlesWhy owning your beauty technologies is a big dealHow he is interested in taking on the 50+ beauty consumer marketRate, Subscribe & Review the Podcast on Apple Join the Naked Beauty Community on IG: @nakedbeautyplanet Thanks for all the love and support.
