This week I had the pleasure of sitting down with Gary Waldron, an author and speaker who has truly mastered the art of reinvention. With a fascinating career trajectory that spans 44 jobs, including being a school teacher, consultant, and even a topless waiter, Gary shares his profound insights on adapting to change and the necessity of reinvention in today’s volatile world. We had violent agreement on so many topics that it's like Gary is 'a brother from another mother'. We explored topics surrounding his book, "Mastering the Art of Reinvention," and delved into the mindset shifts required to view life’s challenges as growth opportunities. Gary also discusses how to harness AI's power effectively in one’s career for those looking to reinvent themselves, allowing for growth without traditional boundaries.

Key Takeaways: Embrace Change: Accept that change is constant and inevitable; the more you practice adaptation, the easier it becomes. Mindset Matters: How you perceive challenges—as either threats or opportunities—significantly influences your ability to navigate them. Quality Prompts Make a Difference: In the age of AI, the quality of the questions you ask can dictate the usefulness of the solutions you receive. Authenticity and Values: Aligning your actions with your core values such as authenticity can guide you successfully through transformations. Living Fully in the Present: While planning for the future is crucial, excessive focus on it or dwelling in the past can detract from present contentment.

Living Through the Aftershock: COVID-19's Lasting Impact on Our Lives and Leadership In this deep and wide-ranging conversation, Amrita Subramanian and Michael D. Levitt explore the profound and lingering effects of the COVID-19 pandemic—not just on health systems, but on our humanity, leadership, and everyday decisions. Reckoning With Collective Trauma The episode opens with a candid reflection on how society continues to carry the emotional residue of the pandemic. Amrita underscores the importance of acknowledging that crisis is not an interruption—it's a constant. Michael builds on this by noting how many individuals still carry unprocessed trauma, often triggered by subtle reminders from the pandemic era. Leaders, he argues, must create space for that healing, not push people to simply “move on.” Mortality, Reflection, and Missed Opportunities Amrita shares that COVID-19 accelerated deeper societal trends and forced a confrontation with mortality. Michael adds that the pandemic was a moment when the world could have come together—yet instead, we saw fragmentation. Together, they challenge listeners to reflect on whether we're growing from the crisis—or avoiding it. Growth Through Adversity Both hosts explore how some individuals used the pandemic as a springboard for transformation. Amrita calls these people "magnets"—those who attract possibility through growth and reflection. Michael discusses how our choices ripple outward, affecting teams, families, and communities, and urges leaders to lean into thoughtful, values-based decision-making. Making Peace With Chaos In a thought-provoking segment, Amrita reframes chaos—not as disorder, but as the natural state when clarity and consensus are missing. Michael and Amrita discuss the necessity of continuous learning and the paradox of a generation navigating both truth and noise. The takeaway? We're standing at a crossroads that could lead to either a new renaissance—or a descent into disconnection. Humility and Leadership in Uncertain Times Amrita calls for a return to humility, especially in leadership. She advocates for an unlearning of rigid systems and encourages empathy-based decision-making. Michael echoes this, pointing to the dangers of ego in crisis and the importance of making choices grounded in service and self-awareness. Decisions That Shape the Future Michael shares strategies for making clear-headed decisions amid chaos—removing emotion from the process and using systems like checklists to stay aligned. Amrita offers a counterbalance: the role of curiosity and inner wisdom in guiding leaders toward choices that benefit the greater good. Together, they highlight the legacy we're leaving for the next generation—a chance to lead with civility, courage, and care. Living Fully, Leading Wisely The episode closes with reflections on what it means to live a fulfilling life. Amrita encourages gentle self-examination, while Michael reminds us that leadership starts with personal responsibility—and a commitment to making choices that serve not just ourselves, but those around us.   Amrita is a former Fortune 500 VP who has devoted 22+ years of her career to helping organizations thrive amid crises.   She is also a trailblazer in post-disruptive growth as a faculty member at the University of Pennsylvania and a guest lecturer at Wharton. She has almost completed her Ph.D. on post-traumatic growth in adults through COVID-19.   As the world faced the first collective trauma/crisis disruption in modern-day history, the COVID pandemic, Amrita launched a first-of-its-kind study to explore how pain leads to growth and analyze our ability to heal ourselves during an unparalleled crisis.   Her work is dedicated to providing education and practical solutions for individuals and communities worldwide. Her lessons draw from the evidence-based practices of everyday people who have shown heartfelt humility and wisdom in the face of crisis and devastation.   The research study has amassed global participation, and she is convinced that it will show the pandemic strengthened us and renewed our sense of identity, purpose, and community.   Amrita knows well that there is growth from trauma based on what she's endured in her own life.   At the age of five, she was abandoned in a convent. The trauma and abuse she endured throughout that time resulted in selective mutism until she was 11 years old, among other things.   Amrita is now using her voice to help guide humanity and speak out about the many facets of pain and what good could come from them.   On the podcast, she would love to talk about: What happens to the future and nature of work (employees, employers, departments, engagement, stress, fatigue, etc.) following the collective trauma we all walked through? What is the nature of post-disruptive/post-crisis leadership? Who do we need to be to lead ourselves to the next edge of growth and harmony, given crises are only now going to be constant (economic or ecological)? The pandemic is still largely under-processed, and folks do not seem to be making denial a choice. People seem to be hungry to process what they experienced. This article explains why we need to talk about and process pain and how pain can also lead to growth. To get a sense of Amrita, here's an episode she did recently on The Trauma Therapist Podcast, where she talked about how her life has been shaped by continuous growth from trauma.

Constantly battling that harsh inner voice that tells you you're not enough, that you'll never measure up? It can feel like this voice is always lurking, trying to undermine your confidence and making it so much harder to move forward. The good news is that you can change your internal narrative. For this episode, Jill welcomes Shawn Costello Woolley and Holly Yates, coauthors of The Inner Critic Workbook, a fantastic resource that helps you transform your inner critic into a supportive, empowering voice. You'll understand how shame fuels negative self-talk, but more importantly, how self-compassion, mindfulness, and connecting with shared humanity can help you to quiet your critic and start building a kinder, more confident inner dialogue. Listen and Learn: How your inner critic often sabotages your path toward what matters to you most Why your inner critic exists, how it hijacks your progress, and the ways it holds you back in life Is your inner critic pushing you to avoid discomfort, keeping you from the meaningful things you crave? Why self-compassion isn't about letting yourself off the hook Why attempting to replace your inner critic with positivity frequently fails, and what works instead When your inner critic speaks, does it close doors or point you in the direction of values you care about? Using the CARE method for growth to turn your inner critic into a compassionate coach How shame isolates you, but sharing struggles helps you connect and turns our inner critic into a coach Transforming self-criticism into compassion by speaking to yourself the way you would to a friend Stepping back from your thoughts and reacting intentionally, not just based on emotional interpretations How observing your thoughts and actions in the present moment can help clarify your values and guide your choices Resources: The Inner Critic Workbook: Self-Compassion and Mindfulness Skills to Reduce Feelings of Shame, Build Self-Worth, and Improve Your Life and Relationships: https://bookshop.org/a/30734/9781648484292 Shawn's website: https://www.drshawnwhooley.com/ More about Holly on: https://www.newharbinger.com/author/holly-yates/ Connect with Shawn and Holly on social media: https://www.linkedin.com/in/holly-yates-8a8055321 https://www.instagram.com/holly.yates.healing/ https://www.instagram.com/shawncostello19/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/shawn-costello-whooley-psyd-b181294 Related Episodes: 385.

Margaret Meloni welcomes Elysabeth Williamson (https://www.elysabethwilliamson.com/) , a pioneering figure in the realm of partner-based yoga, to discuss the profound intersections of yoga, death, and self-exploration. Elysabeth introduces her unique approach to partner yoga, emphasizing that it transcends mere physical practice and delves into the holistic well-being of our entire being. This episode centers on Elysabeth's recent talk titled "Exploring the Great Mystery and Befriending Death," where she shares her insights on the transformative power of contemplating death as a means to reclaim the sacred nature of life's transitions. Margaret and Elysabeth engage in an open and heartfelt conversation about how the fear of death often overshadows our lives and stifles our ability to fully engage with the present. Elysabeth draws on her experiences leading groups through profound explorations of death, revealing how these discussions can transform fear into joy and connection. As they navigate topics such as the significance of Shavasana (the corpse pose) in yoga, the comforting power of companionship during difficult explorations, and the importance of self-love and compassion in overcoming anxiety, you are invited to reflect on your own fears and beliefs about death. This episode is not just a conversation about death; it's a call to embrace life more fully. Elysabeth shares practical insights from her retreats and workshops, encouraging listeners to approach the topic of death with curiosity rather than dread. Through exercises, such as contemplating self-love and exploring personal myths about mortality, Elysabeth illustrates how a deeper understanding of death can enrich our experiences of living. You will walk away with a renewed perspective on life and death, armed with tools to cultivate greater meaning and connection in your own life.

https://www.drjamesrouse.com/diem What If Your Greatest Transformation Begins the Moment You Wake Up? That's a question I live into every single day. Because I believe it does. Every morning, before my feet hit the floor, I remind myself: This is Day One. A fresh opportunity to meet life with presence, purpose, and love. And in this latest episode of the Love & Life Elevated podcast, I had the beautiful honor of exploring exactly what that means—with my favorite person on the planet, Dr. Debra. This wasn't just a conversation—it was a soul-aligned moment. A chance to reflect on the practices, the struggles, and the awakenings that inspired my new book, DIEM: The Art of Every Day. Together, Debra and I dive into how daily rituals can become spiritual revolutions, how rhythm isn't just biological—it's sacred, and how radical self-love is the foundation for everything good in life. Here's a taste of what we unpack together: We talk about… The morning rituals that have carried me through dark seasons and into the light Why aligning with your natural rhythm is a spiritual practice (yes, there's science too) Cold plunges and other sacred discomforts that teach us courage and compassion The real story behind my “Day One” mantra—and how it saved my life How we can love ourselves forward, even when it's messy, even when it's hard Whether you're feeling stuck, inspired, exhausted, or ready for a breakthrough—this conversation is for you. Because I truly believe the art of your every day holds the key to your extraordinary life. So, if you're ready to elevate—let's go. Let's grow. Together.

"Embodiment is sort of a phase beyond words where an experience, or maybe it's not a singular experience, maybe it just eases into you over time, but you feel like it's a part of you." "It's almost like God or the creator gives you complete enlightenment upon birth, then through existing on in a physical domain, you slowly lose it." "I've sacrificed my morals, I've sacrificed time with my children, I've sacrificed my health, I've sacrificed nurturing my relationship with my wife." "It was kind of like the universe knocking on my door. Like, we have this for you. Do you, you know, it's custom made for you. Do you want it?" "I can almost guarantee you, you're going to grow. But I need you to understand the reason you're going to grow is because this shop is profitable." "There's no need for anger or resentment. There really isn't." "Money can buy freedom. Money can buy creativity. Money can buy space to explore these things." "Ultimately, I believe we exude a frequency, a signature. And I think that that signature attracts that same signature closer to you." "I just want to create love and friendship and beauty and art, and I can't seem to escape these type of people in my life." "As soon as you can see the wound, from that day forward, it starts to heal." "The best part about getting tattooed has nothing to do with the tattoo. It's more so like the transformation that kind of goes through having to sit through that process."

In this deeply moving episode, I sit down with the incredibly open-hearted Rudi Landman, a non-binary practitioner and advocate whose wisdom, gentleness, and honesty made this one of the most soul-nourishing conversations I’ve had. Together, we explore what it truly means to live authentically, even when the world doesn’t make space for your truth. Rudi speaks candidly about their journey, the nuances of gender identity, and the power of choosing to live fully, because life is short and we all deserve to be ourselves. As my first conversation with someone who identifies as non-binary, this episode was a personal learning moment for me. Rudi graciously held space as I asked open, sometimes clumsy, but heartfelt questions about language, identity, and what it means to feel seen. This episode is not just about gender. It’s about humanity, tenderness, and the beauty of being authentically YOU. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Embracing Identity & Preventing Burnout with Lisa Bobyak (BONUS OFFERING - VIRTUAL WORKSHOP 3/20 - see details below)In this episode, Lisa Bobyak, a coach with 13 years of experience, shares her journey through motherhood, identity shifts, and burnout recovery. She uses the metaphor of flamingos—where white ones are mothers who give everything to their young—to highlight how many women pour themselves into others while neglecting their own well-being.Key Themes:•Identity Shifts & Motherhood: Lisa struggled with transitioning from a working mom to a stay-at-home mom, feeling societal pressure that made the shift difficult. She later embraced it but realized she initially resisted the change.•Burnout & Boundaries: Research on burnout, which has been studied since the 1960s, typically focuses on workplaces, but Lisa argues it affects stay-at-home moms, retirees, and caregivers as well. Setting boundaries is essential to preventing it.•Processing Emotions & Healing: By sitting with uncomfortable emotions for as little as 90 seconds, Lisa found relief from physical and emotional tension. Recognizing and honoring one's emotions can significantly impact overall well-being.•Intentional Living & Entrepreneurship: Lisa's coaching helps clients design lives they don't need a vacation from. She emphasizes slowing down, simplifying commitments, and embracing trade-offs rather than trying to do it all.Peaks & Valleys: Peaks: The autonomy and freedom of entrepreneurship, the power of intentionality, and the realization that slowing down creates space for clarity. Valleys: The dangers of overcommitment, self-neglect, and mistaking productivity for fulfillment.Advice to other women exploring entrepreneurship: Lisa urges women to “act as if” for 24–48 hours—trying on a new way of being to see what aligns with their needs.

Transcendence is the state of fully experiencing life while maintaining inner peace, regardless of circumstances. It is not detachment or avoidance of life but rather embracing all moments as they unfold without resistance or preference. This openness enables a state of joy and inner harmony, transforming preferences and fears into acceptance and love. Ultimately, transcendence aligns you with universal consciousness, allowing life to flow freely within and through you. For more information, go to michaelsingerpodcast.com. © Sounds True Inc.
