Love at Work: Aligning Leadership, Purposeful Growth, and the Brand from the Inside Out In this BrandsTalk episode, I got to interview Mark A. Mears—bestselling author, keynote speaker, and former C-level executive who led growth at brands including PepsiCo, McDonald's, NBC Universal, and The Cheesecake Factory—about his shift from traditional growth to purposeful, human-centered leadership and his second bestseller focused on bringing love back into the workplace. Mark explains his LOVE model as an acronym for Listen, Observe, Value, and Empower, linking it to low global engagement trends cited by Gallup and the need to transform command-and-control management into relational leadership that builds belonging. He outlines four interconnected “brands” (personal, internal, external, employer) and argues misalignment undermines experience and trust. The conversation emphasizes building legacy, using feedback and humility, and making a business case for purpose-driven leadership through research and case examples.Get in touch with Mark A.

Patrick Mears shares a refreshingly honest perspective on what success in property management can actually look like – and it's not always tied to bigger portfolios, larger teams or chasing endless growth. After years of building his business, Patrick reached a turning point where he realised that more management didn't automatically equal more freedom, profit or happiness. Instead, he made the conscious decision to build a business that supports the life he wants, not one that consumes it. His approach is a powerful reminder that sustainable growth starts with clarity around your values, your goals and the lifestyle you're trying to create.This conversation also unpacks the hidden cost of discounting in property management and why so many business owners unknowingly sacrifice profit, team sustainability and service quality in the pursuit of growth. Pat shares his philosophy around attracting quality clients through reputation, consistency and word of mouth rather than competing on price. There's so much value here for business owners feeling pressure to constantly grow, especially in an industry where vanity metrics can easily distract from what's actually creating a healthy, profitable business behind the scenes.What stood out most for me was his perspective on freedom – not in the flashy sense, but in the everyday moments that matter. Being able to pick his boys up from daycare, attend swimming lessons, step away from difficult clients and create boundaries around how he works has become his definition of success. It's such an important conversation for anyone in property management who feels stretched too thin, overwhelmed by expectations or caught in the trap of believing bigger always means better.“I'm my own competition, so if I want to grow by ten this month, then I have to do that work and not have to go out and steal from other people or beat everyone. Just compete against yourself and work out what you need, what you want, as opposed to what other people are sprouting on social media or whatever, how many they've signed and that sort of thing.” - Patrick MearsWe cover:Growth in the property management industry and its misconceptionsThe relationship between business size and successPersonal experiences and journey of a property management business ownerThe impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on business perspectivesImportance of work-life balance and aligning business goals with personal valuesStrategies for maintaining profitability without discounting servicesThe significance of quality client relationships over quantityEfficient business management practices and the use of technologyThe value of networking and collaboration within the industryAdvice for property managers on managing growth pressures and focusing on personal goalsA big shout-out to our amazing podcast partner Ailo.

Steelers legend Rocky Bleier joined the show. Rocky has given back so much over the course of his life – not only on the football field, but on the battlefield of Vietnam. He talked about giving back to the community and the people that he loves so much. Rocky said it's a lot of things that interest him, which includes giving back to military members. Rocky didn't watch any of the flag football over the weekend, but knew about the NFL team getting worked over by the team of pro flag football players. Rocky talked about the transition in Steelers football going from Mike Tomlin after nearly 20 years on the sidelines. Rocky thinks Mike McCarthy can build and win in Pittsburgh. Bill Shaner from Hampton Beer Outlet joined the show. Bill credited Donny for the weight loss and the wedding over the weekend. Bill talked about his friendship with Adam Crowley, who said he'd be jailed for 24 hours if a certain threshold got met today. Bill is so honored to be part in today's radiothon and to have a successful local business. Bill said he would be donating roughly 3000 meals to the cause today. Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth joined the show. With baseball starting tomorrow night, Pat shared that he was a diehard Red Sox fan growing up in Massachusetts, but he has pivoted to the Pirates. He said he will be at the home opener next Friday. He said basketball was his favorite sport growing up, but he gave that dream up in high school when football really took off. Chris wants to play golf with Pat at some point this summer after they couldn't set up a date last year. Pat reflected on Mike Tomlin and the process of him stepping down after nearly 2 decades as the Steelers head coach. Pat said he had a feeling of personal let down because they have been unable to get over the playoff hump and drought that has gone on for nearly 10 years. Pat said he is excited about the future with Mike McCarthy in charge. He can't say for sure if Aaron Rodgers is coming back. Pat gave a lot of props to Will Howard and him taking advantage of sitting behind Rodgers all season long while he was out with an injury. Pat is getting married later on this year back home in Boston and gave a shout out to Donny for the big wedding over the weekend. Pat shared his feelings on the importance of giving back to the community and the reason he has for being kind and friendly to everyone he has an encounter with. Pirates in-game reporter Hannah Mears from SportsNet Pittsburgh joined the show. Hannah said there is a strong optimism coming from the Pirates on the 2026 season. Hannah talked about Konnor Griffin going through the minor leagues at hyper speed and how quickly he could end up in the bigs. Who does Hannah think will have a breakout season for the Buccos?

Andi Locke Mears has been using the knowledge of Germanic New Medicine in her naturopathic practice since 2008. Until then, she was chasing the next certification to best serve her patients. But GNM dramatically changed the way she interacted with her patients back then and continues to until this day.In this, the 5th episode on GNM, Andi teaches us about Constellations. This in NOT family constellations as most may think, but a state the vast majority of us are in due to multiple conflict shocks impacting specific parts of our brains.Our brains are a map of what we have perceived and it does not lie. Each of our perceptions, preferences, behaviours and more have been shaped by what we have experienced and perceived in the moment.This is not bad or good, it just 'is'. This knowledge gives clarity and can also provide for empathy when judging ourselves and others.And what I really love about GNM is the empowerment it brings while dropping the fear. Once you realize that most of what the experts are claiming with regards to symptoms and disease is in fact not true, a whole new level of confidence and trust in your body overtakes you.This interview may require more than one listen! This is a confusing and elaborate topic and this interview is a mere introduction to the topic of constellations, but I hope it gives you some insights into your own life and that of the people around you.Here are some of the major talking points:01:40 - See episodes 64, 66, 74 and 92 for previous GNM interviews with Tanya Verquin and Danny Carroll02:20 - Who is Andi Lock Mears?04:20 - Germanic New Medicine is NOT a modality - it is a new understanding of biology, pathology, physiology, psychiatry, psychology and behavioural issues05:25 - How Andi got started in GNM08:00 - The name and origins explained of Germanic New Medicine12:00 - How gGNM came to be13:05 - Testicular cancer - loss of loved one before diagnosis14:40 - How Dr. Hamer couldn't present his post-doctoral thesis because his findings were 100% accurate16:30 - The power of raising your children with this knowledge17:30 - Constellations explained18:15 - Dr. Hamer's first job in an insane asylum25:00 - Territorial conflicts explained (these affected hormonal status)27:00 - Differences between male and female territories28:00 - How handedness affects how conflcts affect us28:50 - How left-handers have more balanced brains29:40 - How territory conflicts affect our behaviours and hormone status32:25 - Alpha males and females35:00 - Brain stem is related to survival conflicts, cerebellum is related protection conflicts44:15 - How mood shifts once conflicts downgrade45:45 - Dangers of resolving territorial conflicts46:30 - Post-mortal constellation and arteries and veins, how it starts and the dangers of resolutions48:50 - Epicrisis - height of healing, squeezing out fluid49:25 - Every epicrisis is initiated by the brain51:00 - Labels in our kids are all conflict shocks52:00 - Short-term memory loss can look like inability to focus53:00 - Kids are conflicted because we don't live biologically54:00 - How we move through an event depends on perception of our subconscious1:00:00 - How we are biologically meant to have our kids when we are young, as young as teenagers1:05:00 - If women give birth before the age of 25, we gain 3 years of maturity for every birth1:16:00 - A few words on menopauseand more!!Support me and check out my store page for discounts on various products at: https://www.sovereigncollective.org/shop/Find Andi:www.andilocke.comFind me:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/saschakalivoda/IG: https://www.instagram.com/saschaksays/Website: www.sovereigncollective.orgYou Tube: https://www.youtube.com/@saschasays/videosBitchute: https://www.bitchute.com/channel/Tfl1Zo021FcX

Undocumented children are quietly disappearing from Delaware classrooms — and one teacher refused to stay silent. When educator Wendy Mears began asking questions, she was met with intimidation and disciplinary action instead of answers. If thousands of documented children go missing each year, how many more are uncounted?In this gripping interview, Wendy speaks out about what she's seen, the price of telling the truth, and why this story matters far beyond Delaware.⚠️ This is an episode that demands attention — because if children are missing in Delaware, how many are missing where you live?Contact Wendy Mears:wmears5409 @gmail.com  wmears @protonmail.çom  https://wendymears.substack.com/Only God Rescued Me: Website: www.onlygodrescuedme.com Contact Lisa:lisa@onlygodrescuedme.comTo help support this podcast: PayPal @Lisa453Venmo @lisameister4242 Square https://square.link/u/kQLAozvVBuy Me a Coffee https://buymeacoffee.com/onlygodrescuedme.com

Tired of the outdated “thirds” model in executive search? Andrew Mears was too. That's why he co-founded Lead Candidate—a niche search firm serving the pharma and bio-outsourcing sector—based on a transparent, fixed-fee subscription model that's up to 30% more cost-effective than traditional pricing. In this episode, Andrew reveals how Lead Candidate went from break-even to 133% revenue growth by rethinking everything: pricing, positioning, sales, and even internal rituals like “Tom's Day of Bad Ideas.” You'll hear how they grew entirely through referrals—no cold calls, no job scraping, no outbound—and why clients commit to 3–18 month subscription agreements that provide predictable revenue for the firm and budgeting certainty for their CFOs. If you're a recruitment firm owner frustrated with unpredictable billings, client churn, or the limitations of contingent search, this conversation will show you what's possible when you lead with values, relevance, and partnership—not pitches. Episode Highlights [3:24] Why Andrew left a COO role to start over during COVID—and how a health scare changed his outlook [12:22] The broken search pricing model—and how Lead Candidate built a better one [22:30] Defining a niche within a niche: how their positioning sets them apart [31:55] Capsule vs. Scale vs. Annual Subscription: how their pricing tiers work [43:39] Why they broke even for 2 years—then tripled revenue during a downturn [56:42] How they land clients without cold outreach [1:08:06] Tom's Day of Bad Ideas: the internal ritual that drives innovation [1:19:20] How they're using AI tools like Quill to free up human interaction Why This Subscription Model Works Instead of charging a percentage of salary in staged fees, Lead Candidate scopes each project based on hiring volume, role complexity, and delivery effort. Pricing is fixed, agreed upfront, and delivered via subscription—typically 3, 6, or 12+ months. This approach gives clients cost transparency and spending predictability—especially valuable for VC-backed, resource-constrained companies—and positions Lead Candidate as a strategic partner rather than a transactional vendor. No Cold Calls, Just Clients Lead Candidate didn't rely on cold outreach. Before launching, Andrew's team surveyed the market, co-created their offer with prospects, and built deep trust through relevance and listening. Their early clients didn't need convincing—they were already bought in. “We never sold. We just listened. The worst outcome was a great conversation.” This approach helped them create a high-conviction pipeline, long-term client relationships, and sticky recurring revenue—without chasing unqualified leads or relying on outdated biz dev tactics. A Values-First Growth Story The journey wasn't easy. For the first two years, they broke even. But Andrew and his co-founders stayed true to their niche, hired with care, and grew by reputation. By 2024, the firm had grown 133% in revenue and 250% in headcount—without compromising on culture or delivery quality. “We built the business the market told us it needed—and just stayed true to it.” About Andrew Mears Andrew is the CEO of Lead Candidate, a search firm he co-founded in 2020 to champion talent in the global life sciences sector. He began his career in HR before moving into executive recruitment, where he's spent 16+ years building national and international practices.

Listen in with student debt experts and Board Member Drs. Tony Bartels and Rebecca Mears in this next installment of our Student Debt Series covering the One Big Beautiful Bill impact on student loans. In this episode we have seven major topics we're addressing: SAVE forbearance zero-interest ending Updates for current veterinary students those starting and returning to vet school Pre-veterinary students applying for 2026/2027 year 2025 veterinary graduates whose grace period is ending RAP (Repayment Assistance Program) Phase out of existing programs Where things stand with PSLF (Public Service Loan Forgiveness)   As always, we want to hear from YOU. Please share your thoughts by sending an email or joining the conversation.     GUEST BIOS: Dr. Tony Bartels Tony Bartels, DVM, MBA graduated in 2012 from the Colorado State University combined MBA/DVM program and is a VIN Foundation Board Member and Student Debt Expert, and an employee of the Veterinary Information Network (VIN). He and his wife, a small-animal internal medicine specialist practicing in Denver, have more than $400,000 in veterinary-school debt that they manage using federal income-driven repayment plans. By necessity (and now obsession), his professional activities include researching and speaking on veterinary-student debt, providing guidance to colleagues on loan-repayment strategies and contributing to VIN Foundation resources. Beyond debt, his professional interests include small- and exotic-animal practice. When he's not staring holes into his colleagues' student-loan data, Tony enjoys fly fishing, ice hockey, camping and exploring Colorado with his wife, Audra, daughter, Lucy, and their two rescued canines, Addi and Maggie. Dr. Rebecca Mears Rebecca Mears, DVM is from Lexington, KY, and a graduate of University of Georgia's College of Veterinary Medicine. Rebecca started her career as an equine general practitioner and is an active AAEP member, currently serving as a member of the AAEP DEI Committee. Her interest in student debt education began with keeping her own education costs lower and grew from there. This was supported by her involvement in the Veterinary Business Management Association (VBMA), which she now gives back to as a National Advisor. In her time away from veterinary medicine, she can be found obsessing over plants and hosting impromptu dance parties. She is passionate about giving back to the profession and improving the lives of veterinarians, pre-vet and vet students.    LINKS AND INFORMATION: Check your current student loan servicers and other loan details -- VIN Foundation My Student Loans tool: http://www.vinfoundation.org/mystudentloans Loan Repayment Simulator: https://vinfoundation.org/loansim  VIN Foundation WikiDebt: https://vinfoundation.org/wikidebt VIN Foundation Webinars: https://vinfoundation.org/resources/webinars/ VIN Foundation get updates: https://vinfoundation.org/updates/ VIN Foundation GIVE page to support these programs & tools: https://vinfoundation.org/give VIN Foundation Blog, Related Student Debt Blog posts:  Changes to federal student loans come into focus: https://vinfoundation.org/changes-federal-student-loans-come-into-focus/ Student Loan Repayment: Trying to leave the SAVE forbearance?

“Shawn Mears Interview” One On One w/Darrell Owens (7-13-25)

Longtime Monster Jam Pit Reporter Leslie Mears returns to discuss her successful career in the hot pits. 

In this episode I am chatting with Lizz Mears from Dorset in the UK. Lizz has two children, who are  21 and 13. After many difficult school years that took their toll on her older child's mental health and on her own, Lizz chose to take her younger child out of school when she was unable to cope with the move to secondary. Amongst lots of other things, we talk about how they transitioned from a more curriculum style learning to unschooling, and the challenges that come with letting go of how we think learning should look. We talk about why our children's mental health has to be the most important part in all of this, the courage it can take to walk away from a system that doesn't work for you and why that can be healing for everyone. Connect with Lizz:https://linktr.ee/Lizzmears https://www.ndparentrevolution.com You can find my blog, workshops and courses at:www.esther-jones.comOr, connect with me onInstagram: @_esther.jonesFacebook:@theunschoolspace

Mike Mears, former CIA Chief of HR, on his book Certainty: How Great Bosses Can Change Minds and Drive Innovation. Discover how great leaders draw out the best of human nature. That our Stone Age brains are hardwired for survival and programmed to fear the unknown, yet the work world demands constant innovation. The enemy of better leadership is uncertainty deeply buried in the minds of your workforce. Mears urges greater understanding of human nature. Work with it rather than push against it. He draws on neuroscience and psychology -- plus compelling stories from his Agency career -- to provide practical leadership advice, including: Science-backed explanations of how our brains think and how our primitive brains are colliding with the demands of the modern workplace; New feedback, change management, and delegation tools to build an environment of certainty rather than of fear; Fresh insights to overcome innate change resistance in yourself and others; and Time-saving ideas to empower yourself while empowering your employees. These steps engender loyalty, trust, and great performance from a team. You learn to identify the limitations and strengths of the human mind and create a dynamic and innovative workplace.   Interview of Thursday, 20 March 2025.
