Why is it so easy to trust what we see on social media—but so hard to trust God?In this episode, we dive into the reasons we often put more faith in algorithms, influencers, and curated content than in the Creator of the universe. We explore how social media conditions us to seek control, validation, and instant answers—while God invites us into a slower, deeper trust that requires faith, not filters.If you've ever caught yourself scrolling for comfort or answers instead of praying, this one's for you. We'll talk about how to recognize it, reset, and start building real trust in God again.

Instead, it can be the opening note to your most authentic chapter yet. In this transformative episode, we explore how major life changes—like empty nesting, career shifts, or personal reinvention—are rooted in who we want to become, not just how we'll do it. Through relatable stories like Lisa, who questioned if binge-watching Netflix was her new purpose, and John, who believed he was “too old to start over,” we see how the stories we tell ourselves shape our experiences during these shifts.What makes this approach different? It's all about doing the inner work first. Before rushing into activities or projects, we examine the beliefs, fears, and identities that might be keeping us stuck. Guided by Carol Dweck's research on mindset, we learn to shift from a fixed mindset (“I'm only a parent”) to a growth mindset (“Who can I become now?”).You'll get practical prompts to uncover limiting beliefs, embrace vulnerability as your strength, and celebrate small wins that propel you forward. Rediscover passions you shelved, and open the door to unexpected joy and purpose.Remember George Eliot's words: "It's never too late to be what you might have been." Whether you're navigating an empty nest or other life transitions, this episode will help you move from simply watching life unfold to actively directing your next chapter.Download the free companion guide at bit.ly/whobeforehow and start your journey of rediscovery today.

The Truth About Authenticity: You Are Not Missing ItAuthenticity. We hear about it everywhere — as if it's a destination we're supposed to reach, a perfectly packaged version of ourselves we should somehow figure out, define, and maintain. But what if that very idea is the thing keeping us stuck?In this deeply honest episode of Dr. Tami Talks, Dr. Tami cracks open the myth of "finding" your authentic self and offers a liberating reframe: you are already your authentic self — infinite, dynamic, ever-evolving. Through personal stories, powerful insights from her wisdom keepers, and her own unfolding embodiment journey, she invites you to release the pressure to fit into a tidy box and instead embrace the fluid, multidimensional truth of who you are.If you've ever felt like you don't quite know who your "real self" is — this conversation will feel like a breath of fresh air, a permission slip, and a powerful homecoming.Key Highlights & Takeaways:✨ The exhausting trap of trying to "define" your authentic self✨ Why your authenticity is not something you find — it's something you allow to continually evolve✨ The infinite nature of your being vs. the finite human game we're playing✨ How self-directed neuroplasticity helps liberate conditioned patterns that suppress your authentic expression✨ The energetic upgrade that happens when you live in soul-level alignment✨ How managing your energy (not your time) becomes the true inner game of life✨ Permission to embody, express, and celebrate the ever-changing, dynamic expression of your true self✨ The real magic: how embodied authenticity unlocks synchronicity, expansion, and joy… which is what makes it so much fun when you settle into it.I hope this episode serves as deep nourishment for your soul.

Today's workforce is facing profound disruption, driven by automation, AI, and shrinking entry-level job opportunities. According to SignalFire's 2025 State of Talent report, entry-level hiring in tech has dropped by 50% from pre-pandemic levels. In this shifting landscape, younger workers aren't just seeking jobs—they're demanding agency, feedback, and purpose. Game-based learning models like the Career Game Loop are gaining traction because they mirror the real-world dynamics of growth: nonlinear learning, experimentation, and persistence through challenges.How can video game design principles help the next generation navigate an unstable job market and reshape the way we build skills, solve problems, and stay engaged?In this second installment of the DisruptED series, host Ron Stefanski welcomes back Jessica Lindl, Vice President of Ecosystem Growth at Unity, to unpack how game design is redefining career development. From agency and failure-as-feedback to peer learning and mission-driven work, Lindl shares how the next generation is building skills and lives with intention, adaptability, and grit.Key Highlights from the Conversation:Game Design as Learning Design: Lindl breaks down how mechanics like choice, exploration, and “failing forward” make game-inspired models more effective than traditional instruction.Gen Z's Purpose-Driven Mindset: Today's young professionals are motivated by social impact, continuous learning, and alignment with personal values, not just promotions.Resilience Through Play: Gaming teaches users to embrace uncertainty, seek mentorship, and keep going—skills now essential in a disrupted economy.Jessica Lindl is Vice President of Ecosystem Growth at Unity Technologies and the bestselling author of The Career Game Loop: Learn to Earn in the New Economy. She brings over two decades of experience leading global initiatives in education, workforce development, and social impact. At Unity, she has spearheaded programs that scale career access through game-based learning and digital upskilling, reaching millions worldwide.

As traditional career paths break down, economic mobility is being redefined by adaptability, not academic credentials. Today, 52% of college graduates are underemployed a year after graduation, working in roles that don't require a four-year degree. Meanwhile, networking strategies like informational interviews yield one job offer per 12 conversations—far more effective than the one-in-200 odds of resume submissions. These realities underscore the need for new workforce models, like the Career Game Loop, which prioritize agility, skill-building, and game-informed strategies to help individuals navigate an evolving labor market.Can gamified career navigation unlock more inclusive access to middle-class jobs—and help close the skills gap faster than legacy education systems?In the first of a three-part DisruptED series, host Ron Stefanski sits down with Jessica Lindl, Vice President of Ecosystem Growth at Unity, to explore how her work—and her bestselling book The Career Game Loop: Learn to Earn in the New Economy—reimagines career development through game design, skill-building, and opportunity alignment.Key Highlights from the Conversation:Gaming as a Learning Engine: Lindl explains how high-quality video games build durable skills like collaboration and problem-solving skills that employers increasingly demand.The Career Game Loop Framework: She introduces a four-step model—Career Quest, Level Up, Job Hunt, Job Craft—that helps individuals adapt to a fast-changing labor market.Unity's Scalable Pathways: Over one million students now use Unity's certification and learning tools annually, bypassing traditional four-year degrees to access entry-level tech jobs.Jessica Lindl is a senior executive and bestselling author with over two decades of leadership in education technology, workforce development, and social impact. At Unity Technologies, she launched and scaled global education and sustainability initiatives, driving double-digit annual growth and expanding access to 21st-century careers for millions. Her career spans leading game-based learning companies, managing multi-million-dollar charitable funds, and pioneering scalable upskilling programs that blend gaming, learning, and social innovation.

As AI, automation, and immersive tech accelerate disruption, the future of work is being reshaped faster than most institutions can adapt. Entry-level roles for recent graduates are shrinking, traditional degrees are being questioned, and lifelong careers are being replaced by continuous reinvention. In this climate, the most valuable assets are no longer technical certifications alone, but durable human skills like adaptability, communication, and critical thinking. Models like the Career Game Loop offer a way forward, helping individuals build skill resilience through iterative, human-centered growth.What role should human skills play in an AI-powered workforce, and how can workers future-proof themselves without relying solely on degrees?In this final episode of a three-part DisruptED series, host Ron Stefanski once again engages with Jessica Lindl, Vice President of Ecosystem Growth at Unity. Together, they explore how the Career Game Loop model can prepare workers for a world of accelerating change. The conversation spans the limits of traditional education, the rise of learning-while-earning, and why networks—especially weak ties—are more powerful than a perfect resume. Lindl brings perspective shaped by her book, The Career Game Loop: Learn to Earn in the New Economy, which explores how game-based thinking supports lifelong learning and career adaptability.Key Highlights from the Conversation:Durable Skills as a Strategic Advantage: Lindl emphasizes that skills like collaboration, creativity, and critical thinking compound over time and are more valuable than ever in an AI-influenced economy.Beyond Degrees: From trades to tech, Jessica shares why aligning learning paths with market demand and real-world experience is critical for career growth.The Power of Weak Ties: One in 12 informational interviews leads to a job offer, compared to just one in 200 resumes. Lindl explains why relationship-building is a game-changing strategy.Jessica Lindl is Vice President of Ecosystem Growth at Unity, where she drives global career access through digital learning, gaming, and scalable workforce programs. A longtime edtech leader, she has launched high-impact initiatives spanning social impact, ESG, and sustainability, generating double-digit growth and reaching millions of learners. Her career includes executive roles across gaming and education companies, where she built platforms that blend immersive technology with skill development to power the future of work.

Before he became a coach and founder, Sande Golgart was addicted to acceleration. He said yes to every challenge, thrived in high-stakes boardrooms, and made a name for himself as a relentless performer. But behind the energy and accolades, something didn't sit right.In Part One, Sande retraces his early life as a dunk contest champion, his rise through the corporate ranks, and the moment he realized the game he was winning wasn't one he wanted to keep playing.

In Part Two, he shares the uncomfortable, intentional work of stepping back—what it took to unplug from achievement addiction and start redesigning a life that fits from the inside out.This isn't a story about reinvention through ambition.

After analyzing dozens of software company acquisitions and scaling teams at Microsoft, Stijn Hendrikse has identified the specific patterns that separate companies achieving explosive growth from those that plateau at $5-10M ARR. In this conversation, Wes Bush sits down with Stijn, who breaks down the T2D3 framework (Triple, Triple, Double, Double, Double) - not as a theoretical model, but as a practical roadmap he's seen work across his PE portfolio and enterprise scaling experience. This isn't about growth hacking tactics. But it's about understanding that each stage of rapid scaling requires completely different strategic muscles. The discussion reveals why most founders fail at T2D3 by trying to solve the right problems at the wrong time, how to navigate the brutal transition from startup agility to enterprise execution, and the counterintuitive reality that people - not product or market - become your primary growth constraint after $20M ARR. Key Highlights:  01:27: The T2D3 framework decoded 13:56: Why chasing new customers kills growth 17:51: The muscle-building phase that breaks most companies 24:40: The people scaling crisis 47:19: The founder bottleneck  Learn more about Stijn's work: T2D3 Book Kalungi - B2B SaaS Marketing Agency Connect with Stijn on LinkedIn

Catherine sits down with Leigh-Allyn Baker—former Disney star turned medical freedom advocate and children’s author—to unpack one of the most divisive and urgent issues facing families today: how to safeguard our kids’ health and souls in a culture that often disregards parental rights, pushes conformity, and floods young minds with spiritually corrosive media.

What if the secret to deep healing wasn't found in a technique---but in the quality of presence you bring to another human being? In this episode, Alex reconnects with Simba Stenqvist, TRE® trainer and somatic innovator based in Thailand, to explore his groundbreaking modality called Internal Alchemy---a fusion of neurogenic tremoring, fascial work, breathwork, and energetic practices.Simba shares how Internal Alchemy emerged not from intellectual design, but through direct revelation during meditation---symbols, insights, and movements that seemed to arise through him rather than from him. Drawing on 25+ years in martial arts, bodywork, and nervous system practices, Simba reveals how respecting traditional lineages means bringing them forward to meet contemporary needs. From his multicultural background (Swedish-Dominican) to his "old school" teaching philosophy, Simba embodies the art of working with "who's in front of you" rather than rigid protocols.Together, Alex and Simba dive deep into the mystery of masterful facilitation---how experienced practitioners learn to trust their intuition, follow subtle body cues, and create spaces where profound healing can unfold. This conversation explores presence as medicine, the power of authentic witnessing, and how combining fascial work with tremoring can access layers of stored trauma that pure nervous system approaches might miss. If you've ever wondered what transforms a good practitioner into a masterful one, this episode offers profound insights into the art of somatic healing.Key Highlights:[00:03:00] Internal Alchemy Origins Story[05:15:00] Innovation Meets Ancient Wisdom[09:52:00] Teaching Who's Present Philosophy[14:27:00] Fascial Work Beyond Structure[17:34:00] Connecting Somatic Worlds[22:27:00] Creating Safe Containers[25:43:00] Witnessing & Reframing Trauma[28:30:00] Intuitive vs Intellectual Knowing[33:00:00] Organism-to-Organism Communication[40:15:00] Presence as Transmission[46:57:00] Natural vs Supernatural Abilities[48:47:00] Beyond Nervous System LabelsLinks and Resources: Website: https://livingwiththespirit.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/livingwiththespirit/ Find us Online: Sign up for our newsletter to learn more about the power of embodiment:https://www.redbeardsomatictherapy.com/Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RedBeardSomaticTherapyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/redbeardsomatictherapyLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexandermgreene

In this episode, we react to the headlines about Donald Trump and Elon Musk's reported fallout—and unpack what it reveals about the danger of placing our hope in worldly power, fame, or influence. As Catholics, we're reminded that no matter how strong or impressive someone seems, only God is unshakable.

Jean Zhou's journey defies every linear career chart. After starting in accounting and dabbling in venture capital, she found herself chasing something spreadsheets couldn't capture—emotion. That led to Wind Entertainment, a bold bet on storytelling rooted in sociology, psychology, and a lifelong obsession with television. In this episode, Jean reveals the early frustrations that sparked her producer dreams, why she believes storytelling is a survival skill, and how her sociology background became the secret sauce to building character-driven dramas that resonate worldwide. This is the story of how data met drama—and lost.Key Highlights of Our Interview:How Bedtime Curfews Sparked a Creative Fire“Growing up, I had to go to bed at 9 p.m. while TV programs ran until 10.

Helen Hanison was a high-flying PR executive with a passport full of stamps, million-dollar campaigns, and a board-level title. But after 20 years in the industry, she found herself questioning everything. Motherhood collided with her career, success lost its sparkle, and the feeling of being “stuck-but-still-good-at-it” became suffocating.In Part One of this two-part conversation, Helen shares the moment she realized her success was seducing her into staying in the wrong life. She opens up about the subtle signs of misalignment, the “lost years” between knowing something's wrong and doing something about it, and how her pivot into psychology laid the groundwork for a new career—one that finally fits. If you've ever felt competent but not alive in your work, this one's your mirror.Key Highlights of Our Interview:When High Achievement Turns into Quiet Misery“I was flying everywhere, leading campaigns—and I still felt hollow.”Helen unpacks the disconnect between outer success and inner dissatisfaction, especially when you're too good at a job that no longer excites you.The Motherhood Collision“I hadn't seen it coming, but it hit hard.”Becoming a mother didn't just change her home life—it cracked open the illusion that her career and identity were truly aligned.Good At It, But Dead Inside“I wasn't unhappy… just not lit up.”Helen describes the in-between phase where nothing is obviously wrong, but everything feels subtly off—a quiet crisis that many professionals ignore for too long.The Clues Were Always There“I was coaching before I knew what coaching was.”Helen reflects on how her leadership style—taking colleagues out for coffee, asking them what they wanted—was already pointing toward her next calling.Seduced by Success, Trapped by Titles“It's a long way down when the ladder's leaned against the wrong wall.”She reveals why people get stuck in senior roles they don't love, and how fear of the unknown keeps them climbing in the wrong direction.________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Helen HanisonHelen's website: https://www.helenhanison.com  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

In this episode, I share the heart behind my brand-new children's book, Where Does Jesus Live?—a project born from prayer, parenthood, and a deep desire to help kids know that Jesus is close.We dive into why this book matters, how it came to life through Backseat Media, and why Catholic parents today are hungry for content that's not just safe—but soul-forming. Whether you're a parent, godparent, teacher, or just someone passionate about evangelization, this story is for you.This episode is a window into the mission of forming little hearts for Christ and creating content that plants seeds of faith from the car seat to the classroom.

Nellie Wartoft is the founder and CEO of Tiger Hall, a change enablement platform built for teams tired of stale workshops and change theater. In Part One, she takes us from her tiny hometown in Sweden to the boardrooms of Asia, where flipping burgers at McDonald's, carrying an ice hockey trunk to Singapore, and watching companies struggle with real transformation all shaped her mission. This is change management with edge—equal parts adventure, insight, and rebellion.Key Highlights of Our InterviewChange Theater vs. Real Impact“Most companies don't fail at change because of bad tools. They fail because they bring people in too late and communicate like robots. Change has to feel human to work.”Same Emotions, Different Timelines“Fear, chaos, resistance—these show up everywhere, regardless of geography. The real difference is how cultures structure leadership and how fast they move. The U.S. wants speed. Asia wants legacy. Both come with tradeoffs.”Ego: The Silent Killer of Transformation“The higher the ego of a leader, the lower the success rate of their transformation. Fear of feedback, obsession with control—it turns a team into a compliance machine instead of a change engine.”Tech Isn't the Problem—Leadership Is“People love apps—just not the ones that feel forced. If your tools aren't solving real problems or making life easier, the issue isn't the platform. It's the person who bought it.”Walking the Talk at Tiger Hall“We use our own platform to manage internal change. No Zoom fatigue, no death-by-Slack. One short recording can replace hours of town halls and still hit harder—because it's fast, direct, and straight from the source.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Nellie Wartoft  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

That was the real beginning of everything.”From Fries to Founder: Discovering Her Professional DNA“I call McDonald's my most transformative experience. That's where I learned what I now call my three professional addictions: high pace, commercial thrill, and leadership. Everything I've done since started there.”The Real Meaning of Resilience“Workshops don't build resilience. Hard times do. Either you win, or you build character. That's the trade-off. And the only way through it is through it.”Don't Build Your Identity on a Job Title“If your sense of self is built on a title, what happens when that's gone? I don't define myself by being a CEO. I define myself as someone who works hard, learns fast, and has good intentions. That can't be taken away.”Why She Launched Tiger Hall (Spoiler: It Involves SharePoint Rage)“Too many companies still think change means mass emails, intranet black holes, and jargon-filled PDFs. I wanted to build a platform that makes transformation actually work—for real humans, not just consultants.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Nellie Wartoft  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

In today's episode, Wes explores creating a frictionless onboarding experience to showcase a product's value in under seven minutes. He introduces the Bowling Alley Framework, a strategy to direct users quickly to the value of a product by mapping out the shortest path—from sign-up to success. Wes explains that effective onboarding should eliminate unnecessary steps, label essential ones, and set up “bumpers” to guide users back if they stray. Product bumpers, like tooltips and progress bars, keep users on track, while conversational bumpers, such as emails and support messages, re-engage users who have dropped off. This combined approach helps retain new users and boosts their likelihood to upgrade. Key Highlights: 00:44: Importance of an effortless experience for retention.02:09: Overview of the Bowling Alley Framework.04:36: Building a straight line for users to see value.10:08: Adding profiling questions to personalize the user journey.14:28: How to streamline onboarding and reduce the number of steps19:05: Role of product and conversational bumpers to re-engage users You can buy The Product-Led Playbook here.

In this final part, we go beyond buzzwords. Colin breaks down how to make AI work for you—not replace you. He explains how human intelligence and machine intelligence can combine to create authentic, enhanced value. From warning students not to cheat with ChatGPT to showing executives how to tailor their own AI strategy, Colin's message is clear: You don't need every tool. You need the right ones—and a deeply human way to use them.Key Highlights of Our Interview:You Don't Need Every Tool—Just the Right Ones“People want a silver bullet—one AI tool that solves everything. But like any good toolbox, the magic lies in how tools are combined and applied, not how many you have.”Skill Stacking Isn't Hoarding—It's Connecting“Collecting skills is easy. What matters is how you use them together. Communication, judgment, and emotional intelligence are what give your technical know-how real power.”Human Intelligence = Authenticity“AI might write your speech, but it's your lived experience that makes it land. Audiences can smell a fake. Human intelligence—time-tested, real, and grounded—is irreplaceable.”The Penalty of Skipping the Work“If a student uses AI to cheat, they fail. If a banker uses it to write a pitch, it could be fraud. As stakes rise, so do the consequences of skipping the human part.”Authentic + Artificial = Amplified“When human intelligence and AI align, you don't just get automation—you get amplified value. That's the combo to aim for: authentic, enhanced, and scalable.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

In this episode, Colin deconstructs the romanticism of “lifelong learning” and makes a sharp case for skill stacking—not as a buzzword, but as a career imperative. From the strategy rooms of Japan to the boardrooms of Canada, he unpacks the realities of navigating change in cultures, families, and workplaces. Plus, why some organizations say they want transformation but are actually addicted to the comfort of legacy systems. If you're tired of collecting degrees that lead nowhere, this one's for you.Key Highlights of Our Interview:The Illusion of Change-Readiness“Some companies claim they want transformation, but really, they're just addicted to the status quo. I've seen firms hire me as their ‘change guy,' only to resist every proposal I made. You can't retrofit a new future if people are still clinging to an old playbook.”Measured, Not Maniac: Change the Japanese Way“In Japan, change isn't chaotic—it's deliberate, strategic, and often unspoken. Success meant listening, researching, and quietly building allies one by one. Change doesn't have to be noisy to be real.”No More MBA Decisions in a Vacuum“Career decisions ripple through families. Too often, we forget that behind every ‘yes' to an opportunity is a spouse, a child, or a life partner who wasn't asked. Real transformation involves everyone at the table.”Lifelong Learning Is a Vibe—But It's Not Enough“Learning for learning's sake isn't a strategy. Without direction, it becomes a distraction. The future belongs to those who don't just keep learning, but stack those learnings to build something sharper, deeper, and more useful.”Skill Stacking vs. Degree Collecting“My bookshelf has diplomas and dust-covered guitars. Not all knowledge needs to be monetized—but if you want to be valuable in a complex world, stack your skills like a staircase. That's how you move up and across.”Tools, But No Toolbox?“We live in a tool economy. Got a problem? There's an app for that. But most people aren't solving root issues—they're patching over symptoms. Without connecting your skills with insight, it's just noise.”Personal vs. Professional Learning“Skill stacking is for the professional you. Lifelong learning is for the human you. You don't need to turn your love of modern African history into a job. Sometimes learning is just for joy—and that's okay.”From Change Addict to Change Architect“I used to go full throttle. Now I slow down, talk more, and push less. Change is a collective journey. It doesn't matter how fast you're driving if no one's willing to ride with you.”_________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

If reinvention were a passport, Colin Savage's pages would be full. From global projects across seven countries to helping old-school industries like Japanese insurers modernize with tact, Colin's career isn't just built on change—it thrives on it.In Part One, we go deep on the difference between chasing novelty and building purpose. Colin dismantles the dated idea of “lifelong learning” and replaces it with something sharper: skill stacking. You'll also hear how he developed change muscles by moving countries, industries, and ideas—without ever losing sight of what matters.Key Highlights of Our Interview:The Purpose Behind the Pivot“Change is exciting—but if there's no deeper reason behind it, it's just noise.” Why purpose should lead, not lag, behind transformation.Skill Stacking vs. Lifelong Learning“Lifelong learning sounds noble—but it's often aimless. Skill stacking is intentional.” Colin's case for mastering combinations over collecting badges.Japan: Where Change Means Patience“In the Japanese life insurance industry, I learned that fast isn't always smart.” Why transformation in traditional sectors demands humility and consensus.The Trap of Unfinished Adventures“You can jump into change for the thrill—but it's the follow-through that matters.” Why Colin says completion is underrated in careers.Addicted to Change? Own It.“I love novelty—but I've learned to pair it with discipline.” Colin's method for staying curious without burning out._________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Colin Savage  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.

Robert MacPhee didn't start out teaching values—he started out parking cars. But somewhere between the valet stand and becoming Jack Canfield's right-hand man (yes, that Chicken Soup guy), Robert found his lane. Now the author of Living a Values-Based Life, he's guiding people to stop driving in circles and finally align their actions with what truly matters.In this second half of the series, Robert breaks down how to live out your values in everyday life—not just name them. We dig into why values change with life stages, what to do after you've identified your top five, and how to keep them visible and active as your world evolves. If you've ever felt stuck, misaligned, or unsure what to prioritize, this episode gives you the clarity compass you didn't know you needed.Key Highlights of Our Interviews:Why It's So Hard to Define Our Own Values“Most people's initial list of values often reflects what they think others want to hear.”We're conditioned to impress, not reflect—until we learn how to tune out the noise and tune into what really matters.How a Values-Based Life Can Improve Work“Clarity about values doesn't just make personal life better—it's transformative for work too.”Whether it's contribution, integrity, or service, values-aligned action makes work more purposeful and less draining.Do Values Change Over Time? The Short Answer: Yes.“What mattered in high school may be worlds apart from your sixties or seventies.”Life events—from caregiving to career pivots—reshape our internal compass. Values aren't static; they evolve with us.Keeping Values Visible“Have them on your phone, your mirror, your nightstand—whatever it takes.”Don't just declare your values. Revisit them, reflect on them, and let them guide your daily decisions.Borrowing Values When You Need Them“Discipline and strength may not be on your list—but sometimes, you'll need to call them in.”Complementary values can be summoned in certain seasons—without betraying your core.The 4 A's: A Framework for Application“Assess, pick an Area, choose Actions, and create Accountability.”Robert's system helps you go from intention to implementation—because without action, it's just a nice conversation.____________________________Connect with us:Host: Vince Chan | Guest: Robert MacPhee  --Chief Change Officer--Change Ambitiously.
