POPULARITY
It's often fascinating to pinpoint when someone received the first inkling of what their eventual career would be. For many, of course—thinking of all the kids who grew up wanting to be professional athletes, movie stars, astronauts, or firemen—their idealized career path often follows a long and winding road of self-discovery, full of detours and roadblocks that transport them to an eventual destination that was not on their original radar. But what if you could date your dream? Get some firsthand experience in your supposed career of choice? Would you remain totally enamored with the opportunity and steadily move toward further engagement? Or, would you, like Seinfeld's neurotic George Costanza, break things off with a nonchalant, “It's not you, it's me”? Today's guest, Jeanette Bennett, CEO and founding editor of Utah Valley Magazine and Bennett Communications, had that revelatory experience while working as a camera operator at an Idaho TV station when she was in high school. It turned out to trigger the first of many career reframes for this talented entrepreneur and storyteller.
In this Friday Conversation, we were joined by Jeanette Bennett, Executive Managing Director of Colliers & Founding Editor of Utah Valley Magazine. Throughout this conversation Jeanette & Clint talk about Jeanette's career moves, changes in the Utah business landscape, and opportunities for future growth and collaboration in the state. Jeanette explains how she recently joined the commercial real estate company Colliers on the team of Brandon Fugal and Lou Kramer. This opportunity came about through conversations with Brandon Fugal. Jeanette was initially reluctant but realized it was too good to pass up. They discuss how Utah has changed with the breakdown of barriers between counties and Jeanette notes improvements for women professionals. She describes how, when she first worked on a "40 Under 40" article in 2006, finding women to feature was a challenge. Today, however, she is proud to report that she can achieve a nearly equal balance between men and women in the list. Jeanette shares insights from her publishing company, reflecting on economic cycles from the 2001 dot-com bubble to the 2008 housing crisis. They discuss the resilience and adaptability of Utah's businesses, particularly in network marketing, and emphasize the state's potential for steady growth by diversifying across various industries. Tune in to hear from this great entrepreneur.

Remember how print media is supposed to be dead? Well, Jeanette Bennett knows that MOST print media is, but not hers. She is the creator of Utah Valley Magazine, Business Q, Utah Valley Bride, and many other successful publications. She does a yearly 40 Under 40 that is extremely popular, and she has been an inspiration for many Utahns who know her.But what caused her to get into journalism? It was a lunch lady she had when she was in elementary school. She got to know her and wanted to share her story with the rest of the school. That's when she realized that everybody has a story to be told, and she wanted to help make that a reality.Life isn't always smooth though, and she has had multiple times in her career when she had to realize things weren't working and give them up (entire magazines), and overcome the initial struggles of seeing her business start to dwindle with the rise of online media. Yet she has marched forward and regained even more of the market share than she initially lost in that period of time, and proven to Utah, and the world, that she's not to be messed with.

Digital Volunteering: The Smithsonian (0:00:00)Have you ever dreamed of working in a museum? While coronavirus might have temporarily stopped us from being able to be there in person, there are still some incredible opportunities to help out museums with their work while social distancing. If you want to help experts with high profile research, solve the world's mysteries and learn the deepest secrets about our earth's history, you're in luck. The Smithsonian Institution has opened up opportunities for volunteers to do interesting work for the world's largest research complex. We're joined by Caitlin Haynes, the coordinator of the transcription center at the Smithsonian Institution, here to discuss with us the role of the transcription center and what volunteer opportunities they offer. Helping Kids Talk about Their Emotions (0:15:42)Are your teenagers throwing tantrums worse than they did when they were toddlers? Do you have young children that are crying constantly throughout the day? It's even harder for our kids to express their feelings than it is for us. And feelings are hard! Many adults still don't know how to put their emotions into words let alone understand what they're feeling. So how can we teach our kids to use their words to express how they feel? We've asked Amy Morin, a licensed clinical social worker, author, and therapist, onto the show to teach us how to accomplish this seemingly overwhelming responsibility. The Face is an Open Book (0:33:44)Sometimes it would be really helpful to see what thoughts are running through people's minds. For example, if I could read my kids' brains to know what they really want for their birthdays, my life would be so much easier. But we may not need superpowers or Professor X to understand what people are really thinking. Instead, we can look for micro-expressions. Here to talk about how we can read someone's facial expressions is Dr. David Matsumoto: a world-renowned expert of emotion, nonverbal behavior, and deception. Tips for Businesses (0:50:32)The coronavirus has disrupted the way we all live. Did you know that now 10% of our workforce is unemployed? One of the reasons is that businesses are struggling to pay their employees while also trying to keep their own heads above water financially during this pandemic. It's a really scary time for business owners who don't know if they'll still have a business when all of this is said and done. Friend of the show Jeanette Bennett has been following the coronavirus really closely, and so we've invited her onto the show today to help business owners know how to move forward during the pandemic. Lift Up (1:05:38)At the end of 2019, the US unemployment rate was 3.5 percent. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, this number has gone up by 1 percent in the past month, leaving 14.8 million Americans out of work. Unfortunately, many people are struggling to keep their jobs right now with the pandemic shutting down our economy and forcing businesses to close. But, Lift Up is here to help! Lift Up is an organization that is dedicated to helping members of the community get back on their feet and learn skills that will help them have long-term success. With us today, we have Mario Hatcher, the Executive Director of Lift Up in Sarpy County, Nebraska. Family Friendly Movies (1:23:10)While stuck at home during social distancing, our routines can seem repetitive and sometimes boring. Luckily for us, we can find great entertainment on the many streaming services available to us. Having exciting movies to watch with our families can help lift our spirits and even transport us somewhere else. Here to tell us what movies we should consider watching is Maude Garrett. Maude is a pop culture expert and works with the free streaming service, Tubi.

Want some advice on how to become a successful entrepreneur? Jeanette is going to give you some of the best advice I have heard on the mindset and action steps in order to reach your goals.
Jeanette Bennett runs her own business, juggling multiple magazines, and when sharing her favorite business books, we discussed how running a family is just like running a business, they go hand in hand! She's got 5 kids, ages 5-20, and I loved picking her brain on all things parenting. Raised the 2nd of 7 kids, her dad was even her high school teacher! See how that was for them...Then as an adult, from getting her masters degree as a young mom, teaching at a University, ambitious business skills, and managing it all for 20 years. I love the story she told about a mistake she felt she made when she went to school with her daughter to share her spotlight of the week. I think all parents can relate! I also love their Sunday phone rule, need to adopt this in my family! You'll have to listen to see how we are related, too, but we still haven't met in person! Here are a few of my favorite quotes from our chat: "Your actions are evidence of what you truly want." "See a nee, fill a need." "Your house is a factory, not a museum. You are raising and creating kids, it's going to be messy."

If you’ve live in Utah Valley, you almost certainly know about and read Utah Valley Magazine, which Jeanette Bennett and her husband launched in back in 2000, describing the magazine as a publication “for people who love the valley.” What you may notknow, however, is that Jeanette and her small staff publish manypublications. And she’s a mom of four young children. With everything on her plate, you could well wonder how Jeanette is able to find time to be a runner. But she does find time. In fact, she is able to find time to run the AF Canyon Run Against Cancer each year…during which she’s had some extraordinary moments that have to be heard to be believed.
