Episode Theme: Redefining your legacy through self-worth, empowered choice, and rewriting inherited narratives.In this heartfelt conversation at the Round Table, we explore how the stories we inherit—those passed down by family, culture, and societal expectations—shape how we see ourselves and what we believe we're allowed to dream.This episode is a gentle but powerful invitation to examine the stories that have held you back and to awaken to the truth that your legacy begins the moment you choose a new narrative.Through reflection, wisdom, and a grounding meditation, you'll learn how to step into your worth, break generational patterns, and create an impact that ripples far beyond you.3 Things you'll Learn:Recognizing inherited patterns: Learn how to identify stories and beliefs that were handed to you, not chosen by you—and how they've influenced your self-worth.Self-worth as the foundation of legacy: Your legacy is not about accomplishment alone. It's about how deeply you value your voice, your dreams, and your humanity.How to begin writing a new story: Practical, doable steps to build a life grounded in self-love—one choice, boundary, or act of courage at a time.Wisdom of the Week: You are not bound by the past. Every empowered choice becomes a thread in the legacy you are creating right now. When you hold your worth, you inspire others—your peers, your children, and even generations yet to come—to rise with you.Closing Ritual:Together, we practice Hakini Mudra, a gesture of unity and inner wisdom, repeating the mantra:“I am a woman of power and grace.”(Seven times, forming a field of resonance and intention.)Join Our CommunityIf this message resonates, join us in the Composing a New Narrative community—where women worldwide gather to rewrite their stories with courage, compassion, and joy.

While Cathleen and I are working on new content for the podcast—stay tuned, there's lots of exciting stuff coming—we wanted to take a moment to revisit some of Michael's excellent past episodes.For my first “best of” pick, I chose Episode 17, Oceans of Grain, which originally aired on March 2, 2022. In this episode, Michael talks with historian Scott Reynolds Nelson about how the global trade in wheat reshaped the modern world. It's a fascinating look at how the Gilded Age and Progressive Era fit into a much larger story of empire, capitalism, and global connection.When the episode first aired, Russia had just invaded Ukraine, and Nelson's discussion of the Black Sea grain routes suddenly felt eerily relevant. Listening again now, it's striking how powerfully this conversation links nineteenth-century global trade to the world we live in today.We hope you'll enjoy (re)listening as much as we did—and we'd love to know which episodes stand out as your favourites!Essential Reading:Scott Reynolds Nelson, Oceans of Grain: How American Wheat Remade the World (2022).Recommended Reading:Neal Ascherson, The Black Sea (1996).Bettany Hughes, Istanbul: A Tale of Three Cities (2017).Avner Offer, The First World War: An Agrarian Interpretation (1989).Vaclav Smil, Creating the Twentieth Century: Technical Innovations of 1867-1914 and their Lasting Impact (2004).

LIFE AND HOW TO LIVE IT This memoir traces a boy growing up in 1980s Philadelphia as he navigates gangs, addiction, fractured faith, and a home life wired with chaos, finding his only lifeline in the music that gives him a sense of self. It's a raw, darkly funny look at survival, identity, and the stubborn hope that rises even when you're raised in the wreckage. Learn More WHEN THE LIGHT IS MINE A poetry collection that cuts through the noise with sharp, confessional poems about capitalism, faith, identity, depression, and the messy business of surviving yourself. It moves from raw disillusionment to moments of real tenderness, offering an unfiltered look at modern life that challenges, unsettles, and still manages to land on hope. Learn More TOPICS OF CONVERSATION About the Book and the Inspiration Behind It Growing Up in Kensington and the Lasting Impact of Poverty and Violence The Influence of a Deeply Religious Upbringing and Conflicting Family Dynamics Music as an Emotional Lifeline and Catalyst for Self-Discovery Navigating Identity and Personal Beliefs Amid a Restrictive Environment Developing an Authentic Writing Voice and the Decision to Tell His Story Without Filters Themes of Resilience and What He Hopes Readers Take Away The Role of Poetry as Creative Expression and Expansion of His Storytelling ABOUT THE AUTHOR Chaz Holesworth writes from the gritty edge of lived experience. Raised in Philadelphia by a father struggling with heroin addiction and a mother bound to extreme fundamentalist Christianity, he grew up in a world defined by poverty, trauma, and contradiction. Out of that turbulence emerged a voice that is both unflinching and lyrical, capturing the weight of survival, the failures of society, and the fragile hope that persists despite it all. Over the past twenty-five years, Chaz has been sculpting those experiences into stories and poems. His memoir offers a brutally honest account of his past, while his poetry collection distills decades of struggle and reflection into themes of love, depression and loneliness, religion, and the fault lines buried beneath our society. Chaz strives to both trace the contours of intimacy and confront the politics of power, inviting readers into a deeply personal yet universally resonant search for meaning. Now living in the suburbs of Philadelphia with his wife and their beloved dog, Chaz continues to write with the urgency of someone who knows the cost of silence. His work speaks to anyone drawn to poetry and memoirs that dwell on deeper things, offering not just snapshots of a difficult life but the possibility of connection, understanding, and light.

Mike Palmer welcomes Carlo Rotella, a professor at Boston College and author of the book What Can I Get Out of This? Teaching and Learning in a Classroom Full of Skeptics. Rotella, who has an academic specialty in the cultures of cities and also writes for magazines like The New York Times Magazine, approaches his classroom as a "scene" much like a boxing gym or a music club, where people practice a craft and hone their "chops". We dive into the book, which captures the spring semester of 2020 and presents a narrative-style look at Rotella's required freshman literature course. He shares his mission: to change his students' initial question from "Can I get out of this?" to "What can I get out of this?" by treating the interpretation of literature as a learnable craft, not "sorcery or bullshit". Rotella explains how this approach requires us to build a strong classroom community, including policies like banning devices and expecting every student to speak at every class meeting. He reveals the effort required to get quiet students to participate, sometimes using techniques like rehearsing answers in office hours—just as a team practices a play. Rotella argues that in a world of AI and "endless number of talking heads" , the classroom remains a vital "haven" where students can build critical skills and practice analytical response to the world.

In this special compilation of The Burn Podcast, Ben Newman brings together two powerhouse conversations that define what it means to live with purpose, resilience, and unrelenting drive.First, Bruce Cardenas takes us through his extraordinary path — from the Marines and LAPD to becoming the Chief Communications Officer at Quest Nutrition, and now a driving force behind brands like Legendary Foods. Bruce shares how his discipline, attention to detail, and relentless commitment to service opened doors he never expected. But beyond his professional success, Bruce's story is about people — the power of building authentic relationships, leading with gratitude, and showing up for others without expectation. His journey reminds us that fulfillment doesn't come from chasing titles but from finding ways to contribute and lift others along the way.Then, Jason Redman, a decorated Navy SEAL, joins Ben to share his story of survival, leadership, and the “Overcome Mindset” that turned one of life's darkest moments into his greatest source of strength. After being severely wounded in combat, Jason refused to be defined by his injuries. Instead, he built a new mission: helping others rise through their own ambushes — the unexpected challenges that test our purpose and perseverance. His story is not just about war; it's about the fight we all face in life, and the power of preparation, awareness, and relentless belief in your mission.Together, these conversations capture the essence of The Burn — the inner fire that pushes YOU to serve, to overcome, and to keep showing up when life demands your very best.************************************Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/KOBRaWl5P8UListen on all platforms: https://www.theburnpodcast.com************************************Learn about upcoming events and coaching: https://www.workwithbnc.comGet Ben's latest book The STANDARD:  https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1stWork directly with Ben: https://www.bennewmancoaching.comConnect with Ben Newman:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfightFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFightLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693Qlogix: www.Q-logix.com/benhttps://www.bennewmancoaching.com************************************ Learn about our Upcoming events and programs:https://www.workwithbnc.comLet's work TOGETHER https://www.bennewmancoaching.comLet's work together to write YOUR next book- BNC PublishingSend us a message Order my latest book The STANDARD: Winning at YOUR Highest Level: https://amzn.to/3DE1clY1st Phorm | The Foundation of High Performance Nutrition1stPhorm.com/bnewman Connect with me everywhere else: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/continuedfight Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Continuedfight/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/ContinuedFight Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-newman-b0b693

In the parable of the mustard seed, Jesus uses a tiny seed to explain an enormous idea, reminding us that little things have lasting impact.

Creating a Lasting Impact

What if your carefully crafted training course could become a content campaign that actually drives behavior change? Most L&D professionals create amazing content that gets consumed once and forgotten. But what if that single course could spawn dozens of touchpoints that reinforce learning over time?We're seeing a shift where smart L&D teams are borrowing from marketing playbooks, and it's working. The secret isn't creating more content; it's strategically repurposing what you already have.Joining this episode is Mike Taylor, Learning Consultant at Nationwide and co-author of "Think Like a Marketer, Train Like an L&D Pro."Mike's been pioneering the campaign approach to learning, and shows us how one webinar recording can become email sequences, infographics, GIFs, and micro-learning moments.He explains why thinking in campaigns rather than courses changes everything, introduces the SURE model for creating content that sticks, and shows how to overcome the "we don't have time" objection with smart repurposing strategies.Learning points from the episode include:00:00 - 02:22 Introduction to repurposing and spawning multiple content pieces02:22 - 05:15 Why repurposing isn't more work and how to expand your reach05:15 - 06:56 Think campaigns not courses: the hero content pyramid06:56 - 09:19 Leaving breadcrumb trails across multiple channels09:19 - 11:51 Setting hooks and the SURE model for relevant content11:51 - 12:39 Why content creates feelings whether you know it or not12:39 - 14:23 Turning annual compliance into year-round micro-learning14:23 - 16:37 Using AI and A/B testing data to sell repurposing internally16:37 - 17:58 Finding small experiments to build credibility17:58 - 21:13 Visual repurposing: webinars to GIFs, polls to graphics21:13 - 23:13 Using Camtasia for Microsoft Office tips and animated GIFs23:13 - 25:00 Why even simple content benefits from repurposing25:00 - 26:53 Making subject matter expert content digestible26:53 - 31:15 OutroImportant links and mentions:Connect with Mike Taylor on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/miketaylor/Find out more about Train Like a Marketer: https://trainlikeamarketer.com/Camtasia: https://www.techsmith.com/camtasia/  Snagit: https://www.techsmith.com/snagit/Audiate: https://www.techsmith.com/camtasia/audiate/

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Bianca D'Alessio. The two talk about daily leadership strategies, building company culture through being present, and the importance of staying true to your story. In this episode, we discuss: How Bianca scaled her business from the ground up, learned from poor partnerships, and gradually transitioned from operator to CEO by hiring strategically and adapting her team's roles based on their strengths. What imposter syndrome has looked like for both Ivy and Bianca, and the ways women in leadership can reframe self-doubt into self-confidence. When challenging moments – from personal family issues to professional setbacks – became opportunities for Bianca to see failure as a pathway to growth. Why there's no true "work-life balance"—just life—and how focusing on personal growth, authenticity, and empowerment can fuel leadership success.

Guest Lyle Kirtman has been a leadership development consultant for more than 30 years. As CEO, of Future Management Systems Inc., he has worked on developing leaders to increase results for students in 500 school districts in 15 states. Kirtman's focus on innovation in education is a key element of his presentations, keynotes, and publications. His field-based research has already made major contributions to the educational leadership arena through his “7 Competencies for High Performing Leaders,” the use of leadership assessments for self-reflection and hiring, and the importance of getting a “C” in compliance to increase focus on results for student achievement. He is the author and co-author of numerous books, including Leadership and Teams: The Missing Piece of the Educational Reform Puzzle and Shaping the Future: Four Leadership Pivots for Lasting Educational Impact, which we discuss in this episode. Lyle earned a bachelor's degree in psychology from the State University of New York (SUNY) and a master's degree in counseling with a concentration in career development from SUNY and Fairfield University, Connecticut. Why This Episode Matters Lyle Kirtman's new book, Shaping the Future for Leadership Pivots for Lasting Educational Impact, aims to help educational leaders cultivate a positive results culture through four essential pivots. Identify a clear North Star that defines student success. Develop a new approach for hiring, developing, and retaining all staff (shifting from instructional leader to talent leader). Implement a system where employees self-assess their progress toward enabling student success. Establish and commit to high expectations for all students and staff. Kirtman argues that educational leaders lack a 21st-century "North Star" for student success, which is often narrowly defined by high-stakes test scores. He redefines "results" as the essential skills and competencies students need to be successful in life, beyond just academics. These include skills like critical thinking, resilience, and adaptability. Social Media www.futuremsi.com Twitter (X): @FutureManageme3

In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, Michael sits down with Mike Goldman to challenge the status quo of performance management. Traditional reviews often disengage employees and hinder organizational progress. Instead, Mike shares why leaders must focus on people growth as the true driver of profit. They dive into the concept of “high-performance math” — showing that investing in top performers yields the greatest returns. Too often, leaders spend energy on underperformers while high performers walk away due to toxic culture or poor management. Mike also introduces his simple talent management framework, designed to replace outdated annual reviews with ongoing coaching, accountability, and development. His insights, drawn from his latest book, stress the importance of making tough calls, avoiding mediocrity, and building an environment where employees actually look forward to work. A must-listen for leaders ready to transform how they grow and retain talent. https://StrengthOfTalent.com Podcast:  https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-better-leadership-team-show/id1670173291 Website:  https://www.mike-goldman.com/ Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/mikegoldmancoach LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/mgoldman10/

Prepare for an unflinching episode of Joe Untamed, where we tackle the stories mainstream media won't touch. We open by remembering the 24th anniversary of 9/11, honoring the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the thousands injured, and the enduring sacrifices of first responders. From the collapse of the Twin Towers to the lasting legacy of heightened surveillance, travel restrictions, and the wars that followed, Joe Untamed connects the events of that fateful day to the historical struggle against tyranny dating back to 1683. This is more than memory—it's a call to recognize the cost of freedom and the resilience required to defend it. Our conversation then shifts to the shocking shooting of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. With breaking updates from the FBI, ATF, and firsthand analysis from investigative journalist Alan Duke, we examine the facts behind the attack, the alleged shooter, and the weaponization of ideology in today's politically charged climate. Joe Untamed explores the broader implications for public safety, political polarization, and the vital role of accurate reporting in a world dominated by social media speculation and misinformation. Finally, we honor the courage of whistleblowers like Tina Peters on her 70th birthday, confronting the injustice of her imprisonment and the threat to election transparency. From Colorado court filings to federal advocacy, we highlight the systemic double standards that punish truth-tellers while shielding the powerful. This episode is a call to action: defend your freedoms, demand accountability, and join the fight to preserve transparency and justice in America.
