Bring awareness to how manufacturing helps communities flourish.”“There are a lot of communities that don't even realize manufacturing is in their backyard. Encourage manufactures to be proactive and open up their doors and let their community members come in… to see what they are making and why they are making it.”“Why are stories important to this industry? Because you need that emotional connection with your audience. If you don't have it, they are not going to care. They are not going to know what they don't know.”
350 Growing Through Failure It is vital to our success to fail, we need to try things that are new and be comfortable in the fact failure is normal and expected. By letting ourselves be uncomfortable and fail at new things, we leave room for growth and success. In this episode Sarah Elkins and Paige Arnof-Fenn discuss the importance of trying new activities and accepting our failures as opportunities to grow. Highlights Building a community of people who know when to reach out for help and who you can reach out to. Don't just do what you're great at, try things that are new, especially if you suck at them at first. Explore outside your comfort zone to learn new and amazing things about yourself and the world around you. Quotes “Be brave enough to start something you kind of suck at when you really haven't sucked at stuff in a long time.” “Part of being an adult is being comfortable being uncomfortable.” Dear Listeners it is now your turn, We covered a lot of ground today, but the thing that just came back to me is that I would love to challenge you to take on something that you've always been curious about but never tried. Maybe you won't be good at it, maybe you'll find that you have a natural talent for it. Maybe it's taking a pottery class, throwing clay on a wheel or hand sculpting things, maybe it's taking up knitting or Tai Chi, maybe it's something as simple as walking around your neighborhood in a way you haven't done before, with great intention. And, as always, thank you for listening. About Paige Paige Arnof-Fenn is the founder & CEO of global branding and digital marketing firm Mavens & Moguls based in Cambridge, MA.

About Sarah "Uncovering the right stories for the right audiences so executives, leaders, public speakers, and job seekers can clearly and actively demonstrate their character, values, and vision." In my work with coaching clients, I guide people to improve their communication using storytelling as the foundation of our work together. What I've realized over years of coaching and podcasting is that the majority of people don't realize the impact of the stories they share - on their internal messages, and on the people they're sharing them with. My work with leaders and people who aspire to be leaders follows a similar path to the interviews on my podcast, uncovering pivotal moments in their lives and learning how to share them to connect more authentically with others, to make their presentations and speaking more engaging, to reveal patterns that have kept them stuck or moved them forward, and to improve their relationships at work and at home. The audiobook, Your Stories Don't Define You, How You Tell Them Will is now available! Included with your purchase are two bonus tracks, songs recorded by Sarah's band, Spare Change, in her living room in Montana. Be sure to check out the Storytelling For Professionals Course as well to make sure you nail that next interview!

It's feedback from Manufacturing All-Stars like you that keeps us going!Tweetable Quotes:“When I say Manufacturing Happy Hour is listened to by leaders in manufacturing, I don't always mean the C-suite. I define leader as anyone who cares about their career, the industry, or their business. People that are driven in their careers.”“How do I attract the next generation? I need to listen to the next generation in terms of hearing what they want, rather than just assuming that me, as someone who's been doing this for five plus years, knows all the answers.”“I'm trying to pick the best stories to tell, but I think it's just consistency. It's doing these things on a regular basis that gets folks out there, gets folks talking to people that they might not have met before."Links & mentions:Broken Bat Brewery, baseball themed craft brewery and tap room in Milwaukee Mavens of Manufacturing, live video...
