Ella al-Shamahi is one part Charles Darwin, one part Indiana Jones. She braves war zones and pirate-infested waters to collect fossils from prehistoric caves, fossils that help us understand the origin of our species. Her recent hit BBC / PBS series Human follows her around the globe trying to piece together the unlikely story of how early humans conquered the world. But Ella's own origins as an evolutionary biologist are equally unlikely. She sits down with us and tells us a story she has rarely shared publicly, about how she came to believe in evolution, and how much that belief cost her.

Ever feel like you're doing all the things, hustling hard, juggling responsibilities, trying to “make it,” but something inside still feels off? Like you're climbing the ladder of success, only to realize it might be leaning on the wrong wall? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm flipping the mic and sharing my guest appearance on The Win the Day Podcast with my brotha James Whittaker, author, speaker, and creator of the Win the Day movement. James is a powerhouse when it comes to helping people achieve peak performance through mindset mastery, intentional living, and taking consistent action. And in this episode, we dive deep into what it really takes to build a life that feels as good as it looks.We talk about everything from defining what success actually means to you, to breaking free from burnout, to creating harmony between ambition and well-being. I even share the origins of The Happy Hustle, the story behind the “3 freedoms” (financial, creative, and time), and how the S.O.U.L.M.A.P.P.I.N. framework became my North Star for balance and fulfillment.Here are a few takeaways you'll get from the episode:Focus on one thing at a time. Multitasking is the enemy of mastery. Presence equals performance.Redefine balance. True happiness comes when you harmonize ambition with well-being — not sacrifice one for the other.Know your MVTs. Identify your Most Valuable Tasks each day so you can work smarter, not harder.Get outdoors. Nature resets your nervous system and reignites your creativity — I swear by this one.Define success for YOU. Don't chase someone else's version of “making it.” The goal is fulfillment, not just achievement.We also talked about on the importance of mindful leadership, unplugging digitally, and how becoming a parent shifted my perspective on priorities and purpose. This conversation was real, raw, and packed with wisdom for anyone who wants to win — not just in business, but in life.If you're ready to design your dream reality, ditch the burnout, and start Happy Hustlin' your way to more purpose and peace, tune in now.

Getting brilliant at forgiving those who have wronged and hurt you delivers these benefits to you as a leader, producer and person. Let success be your confident reply. Staying bitter and stagnant is a violent defeat. What I suggest is to try and use what someone did to you as soil for your growth and fuel for your winning. Let any pain you suffer actually purify you by processing through it so that you become emotionally richer, internally stronger and personally wiser. And, as best as you can, exploit this newfound clarity, creativity and maturity to build glorious fortunes of success, beauty and inner freedom. Let an even more beautiful life be your elegant response. FOLLOW ROBIN SHARMA:InstagramFacebookTwitterYouTube
Send us a textThe hardest truth we learned in recovery wasn't about alcohol—it was about control. For years we tried to push, persuade, and rescue our way into peace, only to end up exhausted and resentful. Then two small words flipped everything: let them. Let them choose. Let them stay. Let them go. Let them misunderstand. And let us choose our peace, our boundaries, and our focus.We explore how the “Let Them” Theory reframes love, leadership, and sobriety without sliding into passivity. Control looks like care, but it's fear wearing a friendly mask. We share real stories of trying to fix partners, employees, and friends, and how accepting people's agency made room for real connection—and for those who are actually aligned to step in. You'll hear why love without boundaries becomes chaos, how rescuing steals growth, and why allowing people to be wrong about you is a fast track to freedom. We also unpack the surprising link between addiction and control, and why quiet consistency becomes more influential than any speech.If you've ever felt responsible for everyone else's choices—or felt triggered when they ignore your advice—take our practical tool with you: the Five Whys. Keep asking why until you move from blame to root-cause truth. Paired with surrender and spiritual trust, this shift calms your nervous system, clarifies what's yours to carry, and helps you stop arguing with reality. Let them live their story while you live yours—with integrity, compassion, and clear boundaries.If this resonated, subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs lighter shoulders and clearer lines.

“If you have a fear of failure, you won't launch.” - Brad BergmooserWelcome to episode 220 of The CUInsight Experience podcast with your hosts, Randy Smith, co-founder of CUInsight.com, and Jill Nowacki, President and CEO of Humanidei.This episode is sponsored by The Sheeter Group - a leading executive benefits firm that meets your retention and succession needs.

Learn more at sheetergroup.com.In this season, Jill and I will have conversations centered around leadership, credit unions, and living our best lives. We will have some of the most respected leaders from around credit unions who we are grateful to call friends join us in the discussion from time to time too.In this episode, we welcome Brad Bergmooser, CEO of Financial Plus Credit Union in Michigan. He joins us to discuss one of the most important aspects of being an effective leader—adaptability. Adaptability is shown to be crucial not just for leaders, but for entire organizations, and we explore how credit unions need to be "fast followers" to keep up with demands for instant, personalized service. Clinging to the "way we've always done it" is a recipe for getting left behind!Listen as Brad shares how he has embraced change and disruption to create an exciting, fast-paced environment that attracts top talent to the credit union industry. We dig into the difference between reacting to change vs. proactively adapting to it, and Brad provides examples of how he has developed adaptable leaders on his team by giving them assignments outside of their comfort zones, ultimately building their "muscle memory" for taking on uncertainty.We also discuss the challenges of leading teams through rapid change and how some leaders struggle with the loss of control that can sometimes come with the territory of being adaptable, and Brad highlights the importance of surrounding yourself with experts who can fill the gaps in your own knowledge, rather than trying to be the all-knowing CEO.We ultimately offer some insights for aspiring leaders into how to foster adaptability in themselves and in their teams, with key traits including embracing failure as a learning opportunity, maintaining confidence while also being vulnerable, and constantly putting yourself in uncomfortable situations to build that crucial adaptability muscle!

But this episode isn't just about business growth. It's about personal growth.Joel gets real about the shadows behind success—depression, marriage struggles, and what happens when achievement isn't enough—and how a single psychedelic journey cracked him wide open. We go there: the messy middle of building a company, the healing work that saved his marriage, and why true leadership always starts within.We talk about:⚡ How he built a multimillion-dollar company while still in college⚡ Why employee-first culture is his secret weapon⚡ The spiritual awakening that changed his life—and his marriage⚡ The role psychedelics can play in healing trauma and addiction⚡ Why “marriage coaching” might just be your next power moveThis one's deep, funny, and brutally honest—the kind of conversation that reminds you success means nothing if you don't know yourself.
Just listened to a fabulous podcast from Ben Rogers and his “Bottom Line” podcast. This episode was called “Tuesday Short: Truckers Block” Find Ben: (@ben_rajas53) BUILD Coaching Company, LLC - buildthearmy.com. The whole premise was connected to author Steve Chandler and his description about what “Trucker's Block” is all about. “Is there something called Trucker's Block where a driver wakes up and finds his mood isn't right for driving today? No. A trucker drives his truck no matter what his energy or hope levels are.” In this very short podcast (less than 90 seconds), it got me thinking about how many of my activities could I attach this definition to, so my mood wouldn't be a factor. I have a lot of work to figure this out - what about you? To me, I see the value of this for me to do. Listen to Ben's episode a few times. In fact, listen to more of his podcast episodes as he always brings plenty to think about in order for us to become the best versions of ourselves. Thanks for listening.

In this powerful episode of the HVAC School podcast, Bryan sits down with Nate Agentis, third-generation plumber and author of Get Shit Done: How to Build a Strong Team, A Profitable Business, and a Lasting Legacy. Their conversation explores the intersection of personal health, business success, and meaningful leadership in the trades industry. Nate's journey from technician to business owner wasn't easy. After his grandfather built the family plumbing business from nothing, only to lose it to the IRS, and his father rebuilt it from scratch, Nate found himself thrust into leadership at age 33 when his mother was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. The tragedy of losing his mother while simultaneously taking over the business created a perfect storm that eventually led to burnout and a period of deep reflection during COVID-19. This experience became the foundation for his leadership philosophy and his book. The conversation delves into the generational divide in the trades, where older workers view younger employees as lazy while younger workers see their elders as slaves to their jobs. Nate argues that healthy leadership requires bridging this gap through understanding and practical solutions. His approach centers on five pillars: healthy owner, sticky culture, skilled technicians, efficient operations, and clear metrics. However, he emphasizes that without the foundation of personal health and self-awareness, the other pillars crumble. Perhaps most compelling is Nate's emphasis on humility and accountability as twin keys to success. He challenges the "self-made man" mentality prevalent in trades culture, arguing that true leadership requires vulnerability, community, and the willingness to seek help. This philosophy extends beyond business into his nonprofit work with Hope for the Trades, which provides educational resources, retreat opportunities, and humanitarian mission trips for tradespeople seeking both professional development and personal renewal. Key Topics Covered Generational Business Transitions - Navigating the challenges of taking over a family business during crisis and the unique pressures of third-generation ownership The Burnout Epidemic in Trades - Understanding why skilled tradespeople burn out and how to create sustainable career paths that don't sacrifice family and personal health Bridging Generational Divides - Addressing the tension between older workers who prioritize work ethic and younger workers who emphasize work-life balance The Five Pillars Framework - Healthy owner, sticky culture, skilled technicians, efficient operations, and clear metrics as the foundation for sustainable business growth Humility and Accountability in Leadership - Why admitting weakness and seeking help are actually signs of strength and keys to long-term success The Balance Wheel Concept - A practical tool for evaluating different areas of life (marriage, parenting, health, spirituality, etc.) and identifying areas needing attention Community and Isolation in Trades - Addressing the epidemic of loneliness among tradespeople and the importance of genuine relationships for personal and professional growth Metrics Without Depression - How to implement business measurement systems as tools for clarity rather than sources of shame or discouragement Hope for the Trades Nonprofit - Educational resources, retreat programs, and humanitarian missions designed to support the whole person, not just the business owner Legacy vs. Profit Mentality - Shifting focus from purely financial success to creating lasting positive impact on employees, families, and communities Practical Life Planning - Applying strategic planning principles to personal life, marriage, and parenting with the same intentionality used in business planning Sign up for Hope for the Trades at https://hopeforthetrades.com/ and get a free copy of Nate's book.

If you've ever paused on your next chapter because you think you need to be “more ready” or “more perfect,” this one's for you. My dear friend, multi-hyphenate creative and mentor Jessica Eileen Drogosz joins me to dismantle the myth that leaders must have it all together before they lead. From building associate teams and separating brands to launching a heart-led coaching offer, Jessica shares the real (and often messy) middle—where clarity, courage, and connection are forged. So many of you are standing on the edge of your next season—coaching, teaching, creating a course, or simply showing up more boldly online. If perfectionism has been your speed bump, consider this your green light. Progress—not flawlessness—is what builds mastery, self-trust, and momentum. In this episode, we cover: The myth of perfection and why showing your humanity actually builds more trust. Following the “whisper”—how to recognize the nudge that it's time for your next thing. Making space for multipassionate work: running successful photo brands and stepping into mentorship. Leadership in real life: humility, owning mistakes, and building systems with your team. Identity first, strategy second: creating from the future you (website, offers, and voice) before you “feel ready.” Micro-leaps & progress tracking: simple daily practices that compound into big outcomes. Social media resistance: sharing vulnerably in a new container without overthinking it. Coaching with depth: why inner story work belongs before scaling strategies. You don't need a perfect plan to lead—you need your imperfect, present self and one brave step. If you're ready to move from dreaming to doing, go follow Jessica and book a clarity call. And if you want coaching around identity, mindset, and strategy for your next season, my door's open too. Let's build the future you—starting today.

October 9, 2025: Burnout isn't always burnout — sometimes it's just work that's lost its rhythm. In today's Future-Ready Today episode, Jacob Morgan explores six powerful signals reshaping the modern workplace. From Google tightening its hybrid work policy to new data revealing that most corporate cultures aren't ready for AI, the future of work is moving from convenience to clarity. You'll hear how job seekers are prioritizing reputation over perks, why “linchpin” executives are cracking under pressure, and how one-third of leaders are now testing AI before hiring. Then Jacob takes aim at the burnout narrative — separating stress from exhaustion, and explaining why the real issue is recovery, not overwork. He closes with the 1%-a-Day Challenge: one practical habit to build discipline, focus, and energy for the long game of leadership. If you lead teams or shape culture, this episode will help you rethink what it truly means to be future-ready in an era where easy work is over — and meaningful work is what's next.

What really makes a team successful? Is it star power, charisma, sheer talent, or something else entirely?

From the pitfalls of too much talent to the benefits of “bursty communication,” this episode reframes how we should think about leadership and teamwork.

The Leadership Advantage No One's Talking About Your mornings start with good intentions, but then, it's back-to-back meetings, lunch at your desk answering emails, fires to put out. You're busy all day, but you're not actually in flow or building momentum. By evening, you're exhausted, and the creative work that really matters is still waiting for you. But by then, your brain is already completely fried. If you think this is just part of the job, think again. It's actually what happens when you're working against how your brain is naturally wired to function. For so many high-achieving leaders, the challenge isn't a lack of skill or drive — it's the invisible misalignment between how you're built to thrive & how you're actually working and living. In this episode of Impact with Ease, Blake Schofield explores what distinguishes transformational leaders in a world speeding toward automation/AI. Many of today's best leaders are secretly running on empty — not because they lack talent or discipline, but because they're leading against how humans are actually wired to thrive. You'll learn a fresh approach that goes beyond systems and tools, and instead focuses on aligning your inner wiring, beliefs, and environment — so you lead with ease, energy, and creativity. Whether you're a C-suite executive, leader, or individual high performer, this conversation will shift how you see burnout, leadership development, and the future of work. Episode Highlights Why Burnout Is Really About Misalignment [02:30] - Why leaders don't burn out from doing too much [03:15] - The three domains of performance: wiring, beliefs, environment [04:00] - How misalignment steals energy, clarity & creativity Your Internal Operating System [05:15] - How most leaders work against their natural strengths [06:30] - Understanding conation & your unique method of operation [08:00] - Real example: How Blake's wiring as an innovator shaped her leadership style The Subconscious Rules Running the Show [11:30] - How subconscious beliefs undermine your best efforts [12:45] - Why high achievers equate busyness with worth [13:30] - Client story: Michelle's transformation from perfectionism to confidence Environment — When Systems Sabotage Success [15:00] - Why the wrong environment drains you, even when you "know better" [16:15] - How to optimize human performance through alignment [17:00] - The ripple effect: team dynamics & organizational impact Powerful Quotes "Burnout is not about working too hard or too long. It's a chronic misalignment between how you're wired to thrive and how you're actually leading and living." —Blake Schofield "I went from going through the motions and feeling invisible to becoming the kind of leader I've always aspired to be. This program helped me reconnect to the passion I have for business and leaders." —Robin, client "I wish I'd met you 20 years ago. What you have done for me personally outweighs any career or financial gain I could have gotten through this program. I came in thinking the career was a holy grail and you were going to fix my career. But really you fixed me." —Michelle, C-suite leader Resources Mentioned Kathy Kolbe > http://www.kolbe.com/aboutUs/kathy-kolbe.cfm Conation > http://www.kolbe.com/theKolbeConcept/what-is-conation.cfm Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

Dr. Mike Zigarelli has more than two decades' worth of experience researching and writing about the intersection between business, faith, and leadership. This week, he talks with Redeemed director Nate Dewberry to share what he's learned from successful Christian business leaders and from Messiah University's phenomenally successful men's and women's soccer programs. His insights—such as pursuing a purpose higher than winning and owning responsibility rather than shifting blame—are practical habits men can apply in their daily lives as businessmen, husbands, and fathers.Segments/chapters0:00 Intro/a little about Mike's background3:23 Mike's faith journey/What does redemption mean to you?9:11 How Mike got inspired to study and write about leadership14:39 Some common traits of the Christian business leaders Mike's studied18:08 Lessons from Messiah U soccer that men can apply in their daily lives24:35 What Mike experienced as he applied those leadership principles to his own life30:45 Striking a balance between striving and contentment37:08 Mike previews his next project/closing thoughtsVisit The Redeemed's website for downloadable discussion question sets, show notes, inspirational articles, more resources, or to share your testimony.Join our Exclusive Newsletter: Signup today and be the first to get notified on upcoming podcasts and new resources!The Redeemed is an organization giving men from all backgrounds a supportive, judgment-free environment, grounded in Christian love without demanding participation in any faith tradition, where they can open up about their challenges, worries, and failures—and celebrate their triumphs over those struggles.

I am a child of God.”In this episode of Business is Human, Rebecca Fleetwood Hession reflects on the swirl of uncertainty in the world today, and why the answer isn't in endless scrolling or chasing headlines but in anchoring ourselves in truth, joy, and God's promises. Through personal stories and wisdom from three impactful books, she shows how our memory and imagination can either trap us in fear or unlock faith, contentment, and creativity.Rebecca invites listeners to reframe how they see their lives, their work, and their emotions. From spotting joy in everyday moments to shifting from rehearsing failures to celebrating successes, this episode is both grounding and freeing.In this episode, you'll learn:Why chasing clarity in the news or on social media often leaves us more unsettled, and how to redirect your attention to what truly mattersWays to build habits of joy, like creating a “success journal” or using reflection questions to rewire your mindsetHow to use prayer and imagination as tools for faith, not fearThings to listen for:(00:00) Intro(01:23) Spiritual awakening and social media(02:31) Navigating uncertainty with faith(03:57) Context and clarity in business(05:14) Embracing differences for unity(07:36) Book Recommendation: Living Fearless(09:41) Book Recommendation: Victorious Emotions(16:21) Book Recommendation: Living from the UnseenConnect with Rebecca:https://www.rebeccafleetwoodhession.com/
