Podcasts about mastering the art

Mastering The Art of Saying No Without Guilt Sometimes saying "no" feels anything but peaceful. Even when we know it's the right decision, the guilt creeps in. We worry about letting people down, missing out, or not being seen as a "good mom." And before we know it, we've said yes to too many things that pull us away from what actually matters. In this episode, I'm talking about how to master the art of saying no with peace, purpose, and love. You'll hear: Why it's so hard to say no (even when we want to) How guilt disguises itself as responsibility What happens when we override our peace to please others A few mindset shifts that can help you say no with clarity and confidence Phrases to use when you need to set a boundary Why every "no" creates room for a better "yes" You're not selfish for needing space. You're not unkind for honoring your limits. But if that still feels hard, this episode will help. If you liked this episode, here are some others you might enjoy: 37.

In this special episode, Gresham provides an update on a significant shift in his business focus. He acknowledged making a sizable investment and trying hard, but the lack of movement and leads has brought him to a crossroads. The speaker is now contemplating whether to switch gears entirely or continue on a reduced basis, realizing he must prioritize other areas of his business that are showing more activity. Despite the shift, he has re-joined BNI (Business Networking International) specifically for the franchise brokerage opportunity, recognizing it as the highest potential revenue stream.  Gresham concludes by outlining his current business priorities: Blue 16 Media is the bill-payer, CEO Hacks is the most in alignment and unique, and the Franchise Brokerage has the largest financial upside, despite being his third priority. He is taking a step back from the franchise business because it proved more challenging than anticipated, choosing to navigate the "ebbs and flows" of his ventures one step at a time.

I genuinely thought that because I was majoring in finance, and because everyone was doing banking, equity research, you know, investment management, that that's the path that I had to choose and, what I was doing in college was going to dictate my entire career. And I quickly took that mindset and changed it, and did that in my career at Microsoft as well. So I was like, if I leave finance and, let's say I do a job in engineering, I realize I don't like it, I have already made such great connections in finance, and I'm confident in myself that I can go back.Real leaders don't stay in one lane, they explore every side of the business[11:55] One of the biggest pieces of advice one of my mentors at Microsoft told me is that really successful leaders, at least at Microsoft, have truly taken a role or a stint in every part of the organization, whether that's horizontally or vertically. So when I say vertically, I'm talking about different products or different solutions. And at global companies, each product works as a completely different part of the business. They have different rhythms of business. Or horizontally, where I could either do engineering, or I could do strategy, or I could do marketing, or I could do finance. So that was like something that really stuck to me.Conquering the fear of stepping into the unknown[13:39] What advice would you give to young professionals who feel stuck or afraid to make that change because they feel like they're totally getting rid of that foundation and stepping into the unknown?[15:32] If you have a good leader, they will make sure that they're progressing your career. And so find those champions in your company, or I've done this on LinkedIn and I've reached out to people outside of my company and been very transparent like, ‘Hey, you can see that I'm in a finance role right now through LinkedIn, but I'm really curious to see how a role in product management would work. Like, could we chat? If so, I would love to talk to you about my concerns about leaving finance' And I find people who have done very similar career paths as  me, and there's so many people who have pivoted. And so I think reach out to people and be very transparent about why you're doing it and do it inside your company and outside of the company.How the alumni network helped Nikita and others navigate career pivots[21:07] What this alumni chapter really gives me is, one, a network that says, "Hey, we're all from the University of Utah. We all kind of had a similar education, and that's something that we can relate to regardless of what field we're in." And so second, let's just say I'm trying to do another pivot and I'm trying to go to a different company or try something new. I find if someone reaches out to me and they're from the University of Utah, I'm way more likely to trust them and their expertise, even though I haven't actually worked with them. And so, I mean, I've reached out to our alumni so many times when trying to maybe see if I want to work at a different company or maybe see if I want to go into a different field like engineering or something. And they were the most helpful. And so selfishly, that's what I gained from this chapter.Show Links:Nikita Siddamsettiwar | LinkedInDavid Eccles School of Business (@ubusiness) | InstagramUndergraduate Scholars ProgramsRising Business LeadersEccles Alumni Network (@ecclesalumni) | Instagram Eccles Experience Magazine

In this week's episode, I'm talking about one of the simplest—and hardest—skills to master in horsemanship: the pause.The pause is the brief moment of release and reward that tells your horse, “You did it right.” It's the part of the process that builds confidence, clarity, and understanding between horse and rider. But it's also the step that many of us—myself included—tend to rush through.Tune in as I share how developing better self-awareness and patience can transform your communication with your horse, how the pause teaches effort and confidence, and why slowing down might be the most productive thing you can do in your training.

How to Build a Sustainable, Scalable Business: Insights from Young Han, Fractional COO/CFOIn this episode of The Thoughtful Entrepreneur, host Josh Elledge interviews Young Han, multi-entrepreneur, founder of Always Han and Thesis, and host of The Girl Dad Show. Young shares his experience as a fractional COO/CFO, helping companies between $10M and $100M in revenue make data-driven, sustainable growth decisions. The discussion dives into how founders can scale methodically, balance emotion with logic, and build systems that create long-term stability instead of short-term excitement.Building a Sustainable Business ModelYoung explains that scaling a business requires more than ambition—it requires structure, clarity, and discipline. As a fractional COO/CFO, he brings high-level strategy and operational focus to businesses that are ready to grow but not yet large enough for a full executive team. He emphasizes separating emotion from decision-making and using quantifiable data to guide growth, helping founders see where they can take calculated risks versus emotional leaps.A key part of his process is understanding the founder's actual goals—whether it's income, freedom, or eventual sale—and aligning operational and financial strategies around those priorities. Young believes in the power of methodical, “boring” business-building: creating repeatable systems, managing risk intelligently, and using debt strategically rather than emotionally. His philosophy proves that success doesn't require chaos or constant reinvention—it comes from consistency, structure, and clear decision frameworks.Young also encourages founders to embrace what he calls “Built Boring,” a mindset focused on long-term results over flashy short-term wins. By grounding strategy in data and disciplined execution, leaders can create scalable businesses that endure—ones that don't rely solely on the founder's daily grind to survive.About Young HanYoung Han is a fractional COO/CFO, serial entrepreneur, and founder of Always Han, where he helps companies scale through structured financial and operational strategy. With a portfolio of over 20 growing businesses, Young specializes in guiding founders through the complexities of sustainable growth, decision frameworks, and strategic risk management.

Cultivation is the golden hour before the ask. It's when you introduce someone to your nonprofit, show them the heart behind the stats, the faces behind the facts, and the mission behind the jargon. And it isn't just about raising money—it's about raising friends, champions, connectors, and believers. Done well, cultivation deepens emotional connection, builds trust, and turns a casual observer into a loyal supporter. Done poorly, it feels like a used car sales pitch on a rainy afternoon.

Leadership Is Adaptability in Action Charlene Wheeless shares how true leaders move beyond hierarchical models: “You quickly learn that hierarchical leadership is quite ineffective…If you can connect with someone, you can lead someone.” Adaptability, active listening, and connecting with people on a one-on-one level turn authority into inspiration. 2. Vulnerability Is the New Power Tiffany Yu talks openly about leading with vulnerability and authenticity—especially in spaces that haven't historically made room for difference. “I believe that we have the capacity to be our full, authentic selves…Just different parts of it are showing up at different times.” Her approach shows how vulnerability, not perfection, drives belonging and possibility. 3. Listening and Empathy Build Trust Heather Younger explains her unique practices for making teams feel truly seen and heard: “I always have this practice where if I'll present an idea…I let them basically overvote me. That creates a sense of safety. And they know what, they can trust me.” Her actionable tips for active listening cut through disengagement and unlock deeper trust. 4. Integrity as a Strategic Asset The panel emphasizes how integrity isn't just a virtue. It's foundational to sustainable business success. Tiffany points out: “There is a business case for disability inclusion…how can we balance both the moral imperative with the economic imperative and have them in tandem?” Integrity shapes culture, attracts talent, and drives performance... not just reputation.

https://teachhoops.com/ In the landscape of modern basketball, successfully defending the ball screen is the bedrock of any elite defensive unit. The pick-and-roll is no longer just a play; it's the engine of most offensive systems, designed to create mismatches, force defensive rotations, and generate open shots. Therefore, a team's approach to defending it cannot be passive or improvised. It requires a clear, well-communicated strategy that all five players on the floor understand and can execute in unison. The initial action between the on-ball defender and the screener's defender is just the beginning; the true test lies in the disciplined rotations of the three help-side defenders who must anticipate the pass, tag the roller, and close out on shooters, turning a moment of offensive advantage into a defensive stop. Developing a robust ball-screen defense involves mastering multiple coverages and knowing when to deploy them. The specific scheme—whether it's a hard Hedge to temporarily trap the ball handler, a conservative Drop coverage where the big man protects the paint, an aggressive Switch to neutralize the initial action, or an Ice/Blue to force the play to the sideline—is dictated by several factors. A coaching staff must analyze the opponent's personnel (Is the ball handler a shooter or a driver? Can the screener "pop" for a three or only "roll" to the rim?), the position of the screen on the floor, and the time remaining on the shot clock. Building this defensive versatility requires countless repetitions in practice, ensuring that players can seamlessly communicate and execute the correct coverage call, transforming what could be a defensive liability into a predictable and manageable offensive attack.

Are you substituting players—or just rolling the dice and hoping for the best? Many coaches think subbing is a simple numbers game, but Coach Steve Collins and Coach Bill Flitter (with nearly 40 years of combined wisdom) reveal the art and strategy behind every change. How confident are you in your sub patterns? Listen in for: Making subs work for player development and team wins. Mastering the chess match of in-game adjustments. Top tips for handling fatigue, foul trouble, and “hot hand” moments. Even more smart strategies await. Let's change the game together! If you enjoyed this episode, please leave us a 5-star review. Turn Game Film Into A Game Plan with AI =>> https://coachingyouthhoops.com/aiDone for you practice plans - diagrams, videos, explanations =>> https://coachingyouthhoops.com/ As we stand on the threshold of a new season here in Wisconsin, one of the most powerful tools in our arsenal is the art of substitution. Far more than just a way to manage fatigue, a coach's approach to "navigating subs" is a constant, visible message to the entire team about their value, their role, and the importance of practice. A well-defined substitution strategy, mapped out now in the pre-season, builds a culture where players understand their purpose, whether as a starter, a defensive specialist, an energy-provider off the bench, or a specific matchup solution. Communicating these roles clearly before the season's first tip-off prevents frustration and fosters a "team-first" mentality, transforming the bench from a place of waiting into a ready arsenal of strategic weapons. In the heat of a game, this strategic foundation allows for tactical brilliance. Effective subbing becomes a fluid dance between a pre-planned rotation and the intuitive feel for the game's rhythm. It's about recognizing when a key player needs a 90-second breather to be effective in the final minutes, when to insert a shooter to break a zone, or when to counter an opponent's run by changing the tempo with fresh legs. Great coaches use substitutions proactively, not just reactively, and they master the crucial communication that keeps the entire bench engaged and prepared. Mastering this skill—knowing when to trust your gut and when to stick to the plan—not only maximizes your team's potential in a close game but also cultivates a deep, versatile, and unified program for the entire season.
