From Slack wars to leadership transparency, here's how to make hybrid work… well, work.In this episode, I'm chatting with Rory Brimmer, Director at Turo UK, about what it really takes to create a culture that doesn't suck in a hybrid work environment. Rory's journey is wild—from turning down a Big Four gig (mid-interview, no less) to jumping headfirst into startup life at Turo. Spoiler: it worked out.We talk about why culture matters (like, really matters), how to build trust when half the team is remote, and the sneaky ways burnout creeps in when you're leading from your kitchen table. Rory also spills on a brilliant idea called the “Great Debate,” where even interns bring game-changing ideas to the table.If you've ever felt like hybrid work is a constant battle between flexibility and connection, this one's for you. It's equal parts relatable and packed with takeaways you can steal for your team.Here's What We Get Into:[5:28] Productivity Peaks – Why your 11pm “power hour” is valid and how to build schedules that actually work for humans.[10:17] Office vs. WFH – The real talk on why fully remote isn't always the dream (but also why commutes suck).[17:27] Culture That Doesn't Feel Forced – What makes people want to stay, even when there's no free lunch in sight.[24:05] Transparency = Trust – How being radically open with your team (yes, even about the budget) changes everything.[33:52] Leap of Faith – Rory's mic-drop moment in a Big Four interview and why startups turned out to be the perfect chaos for him.[42:57] The “Great Debate” Hack – The fun team ritual that brings unlikely ideas (and healthy conflict) to the surface.[50:08] Protecting Your Energy – Why being “always on” is overrated and how to block time like a pro leader.It's the perfect mix of practical tips, good vibes, and some solid perspective shifts on how to lead in a way that feels good—not draining.free resources for leaders & biz owners FREE ENERGY BOOSTING TOOLS NEED TO SUPERCHARGE YOUR BIZ?

The global onset of the coronavirus shut down schools, which interrupted the educational process for millions of students. The expectation was that deficits in fundamental areas would be made up once the world opened up again. Did that happen though? Amy and Mike invited education professional Nancy Weinstein to explore post-pandemic learning loss.  What are five things you will learn in this episode? Are students really performing differently since the pandemic?  Does learning loss differ based on age or gender? Were students in all parts of the United States equally impacted by the pandemic? How can students begin to repair pandemic learning gaps? What can parents, educators, and coaches do to repair pandemic learning loss? MEET OUR GUEST Nancy Weinstein founded Mindprint Learning with the perspectives of both a parent and an innovator.  Realizing a need to address a common challenge for parents and educators, she drew upon her background in science and business to create Mindprint, the first ever valid at-home cognitive assessment supported with next-step strategies for growth. Nancy has an extensive background in business, including work at Goldman Sachs, The Walt Disney Company Corporate Strategic Planning, Bristol Myers Squibb, and several smaller Internet companies. Nancy has an MBA from Harvard Business School with first year honors and a BS/BSE summa cum laude from the University of Pennsylvania and Wharton School of Management and Technology Program, Bioengineering and Finance. As a mother of two, Nancy recognizes the challenges parents face today, from helping with homework, to navigating the ever-changing pace of education and technology.  Nancy previously appeared on this podcast in episode 132 to discuss The Science of Memory.

Finding your best fit school requires a lot of smart research, so don't overlook one of the best sources of institutional information available. Amy and Mike invited independent counselor Jane Gabin to discuss how the common data set can help interpret what colleges tell you. What are five things you will learn in this episode? What is the Common Data Set? How can studying the CDS help with judging the value of a school? What does a school's graduation rate tell us about the school? How can the CDS be accessed and can anyone look at it? Are there schools that try to hide their data? MEET OUR GUEST Jane S. Gabin has been publishing articles on colleges' over-hiring of adjunct faculty since 2015, when she wrote about the problem in “Ask the College Counselor,” her regular column for InsideSchools.com. Her writing on this subject has also appeared in Inside Higher Ed (June 24, 2019), the Academe Blog (July 2, 2019 and May 21, 2020), and The College Prep Guide (college-prep-guide.com). A member of NACAC, SACAC, and the International ACAC, as well as the Higher Education Consultants Association (HECA), she currently works as an independent counselor, addressing groups such as the local NAACP Youth Council about educational opportunities, and speaking to parents and students at local public libraries.  Dr. Gabin has over 20 years in the college admissions profession. She worked for 10 years for the Office of Undergraduate Admissions at UNC-Chapel Hill, where she was in charge of all international admissions and counselor relations. She followed this with 11 years in college advising at independent schools in the NYC area, primarily at the United Nations International School (UNIS).  She gave a talk at the SACAC 2020 conference on “Another Way of Looking at What Makes a College ‘Good'” when she addressed this issue (in addition to suggesting a close look at colleges' admission rate, retention rate, class size, and graduation rate).  Additionally, she has given or led sessions (primarily on the essay process) at the New Jersey ACAC, the New York State ACAC, NACAC, and for KIPP (Knowledge Is Power Program) in NYC. She received a Ph.D. in English at UNC-Chapel Hill and has published one novel and is working on another. As an independent scholar, she is currently researching the lives of women artists in the 19th century.

Luke 1:39-45 39 In those days Mary arose and went with haste into the hill country, to a town in Judah, 40 and she entered the house of Zechariah and greeted Elizabeth. 41 And when Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the baby leaped in her womb. And Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit, 42 and she exclaimed with a loud cry, “Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb! 43 And why is this granted to me that the mother of my Lord should come to me? 44 For behold, when the sound of your greeting came to my ears, the baby in my womb leaped for joy. 45 And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.”   Key Words: Baby, Leap, Holy Spirit, Blessed, Joy, Believe Keystone Verse: And blessed is she who believed that there would be a fulfillment of what was spoken to her from the Lord.
