Podcasts about mentors

From Glenwood alum to head coach, Mike Garber shares how a mentor's relentless positivity shaped his coaching, why he treats the classroom like five daily “shows,” and how he helps athletes do what they never thought possible.

Institutional knowledge among legislative staff is a core element to maintaining continuity in legislatures around the country. But passing on that knowledge has become challenging as baby boomers retire and younger staff take on those roles.On this episode, our two guests discussed how they used a mentor-mentee relationship to prepare for a job transition. Bernadette “Bernie” McNulty is the retired chief assistant secretary in the California Senate. Heshani Wijemanne is the current chief assistant secretary in the Senate.McNulty explained that, as a manager, she had a critical responsibility to not only find someone to take on her job but to be sure that person was as ready as possible for the challenges ahead. For her part, Wijemanne said learning and absorbing everything she could from McNulty was irreplaceable in preparing herself. ResourcesLegislative Staff, NCSL

What if the most powerful leadership lessons start long before your first title? We sit down with Sumi Shukla, VP of Global Marketing at Riverbed, to explore how immigrant roots, blended cultures, and early responsibility shape a career built on resilience, fairness, and authenticity. Sumi's story moves from a childhood balancing identity in a predominantly white town to leading global teams across field marketing, ABM, partners, and digital. Along the way, she learned to trade control for trust, to define outcomes clearly, and to give people the space to deliver in their own way.We get into the big tension leaders face: courage versus perfection. Sumi argues that fearless presence beats “flawless” execution when it carries substance—evidence, iteration, and accountability. She shares concrete examples from marketing, including how her team launched ambitious account‑based marketing programmes, read the data honestly, then made the tough call to scale back and reinvest where results were strongest. You'll hear how to normalise experimentation without recklessness, drop sunk costs without leaving gaps, and build a culture where learning is a habit, not a post‑mortem.Mentors and representation play a central role here. Sumi highlights the impact of formidable female leaders early in her career and the insights from her Global Voices of Leadership: Women Who Inspire series—stories of resilience, unconventional paths, and sponsors who opened doors. Together we map a practical leadership playbook: be clear on the outcome, be consistent and fair, lead from the front or the back as needed, and stay humble because you might be wrong. We close with a simple, moving question about legacy - what remains when titles fade - and why the answer should guide how we show up at work and at home.If this conversation resonates, follow the show, share it with a colleague who's growing a team, and leave a quick review to help others find these leadership stories. Your feedback shapes what we explore next.Don't miss the "Virtually Anything Goes" question at the end, where Lev faces Sumi's unscripted question for the first time!Subscribe for more inspiring leadership conversations and share this episode with someone who needs to hear this message today.Sumi Shukla is the VP of Global Marketing, at Riverbed Technology, where she leads all field marketing teams, ABM, Partner and Alliances, and Digital marketing.

Dans ce deuxième épisode de notre série sur les patients experts, je vous emmène dans les coulisses du soin : hôpital, recherche, formation des médecins… Ces sphères que l'on pense réservées aux professionnels s'ouvrent aujourd'hui aux patients. Marion Lanly (AP-HP) et Emmanuelle Hoche (Unicancer) nous montrent comment ces patients, devenus partenaires, transforment le système de santé de l'intérieur. Ensemble, on découvre comment leurs expériences intimes deviennent des leviers d'action collectifs. Grâce à des dispositifs structurés, ce partenariat redéfinit les rôles, les relations, et même l'architecture des lieux de soin. Un mouvement profond, concret, qui interroge aussi les limites de cette nouvelle place donnée aux patients.Dans cet épisode, on aborde :Comment les patients deviennent acteurs de la transformation hospitalièreLe rôle clé des aidants dans le soin et leurs difficultés d'engagementLes méthodes pour intégrer durablement la voix des patients (formation, co-construction…)L'impact du partenariat sur le sens du travail des soignantsDes exemples concrets d'ajustements grâce à l'expérience patient (architecture, soins, formation)Les défis liés à la reconnaissance et au statut des patients partenairesCheminements, c'est le podcast santé des femmes qui parlent de leur santé mentale, physique, et émotionnelle, sans honte, sans filtre et sans tabou. Chaque épisode, diffusé un lundi sur deux, vous plonge dans des récits authentiques et bouleversants.En ouvrant le dictionnaire, on apprend que "cheminement" désigne une progression graduelle, un mouvement, une avancée. Dans ce podcast, le cheminement est celui des femmes : leurs luttes, leurs victoires et leurs transformations face aux défis de la vie et de la santé.Dans Cheminements, le micro est tendu à des femmes du quotidien : vos voisines, collègues, soeurs ou amies. Elles témoignent de leur santé mentale, physique ou sociale, partagent leurs parcours uniques et osent enfin lever le voile sur des sujets trop souvent passés sous silence.Ce podcast santé donne la parole à celles qui méritent d'être entendues. Chaque histoire, portée avec sincérité, met en lumière des réalités humaines, parfois douloureuses, mais toujours humaines.

In dieser sehr persönlichen Kurzepisode blickt Stefan gemeinsam mit Felix auf zwei intensive Jahre Mentoring zurück. Eine Reise, die weit über klassische Mentoring-Modelle hinausging. Es geht um Mut, Persönlichkeitsentwicklung, die Kraft von Beziehungen, den reflektierten Einsatz von Tools wie dem LINC Personality Profiler (LPP) und warum echte Entwicklung immer die Lösung des Mentees ist, niemals die des Mentors.

I love having mentors.  Watching and learning as others navigate the world is one of my superpowers.  Sometimes I feel like a spy as I closely and quietly observe the behavior of others and think, “Oh, I want to be more like THAT.”  Because I love learning and growing personally and professionally, I have hired many mentors and coaches over the years - paying well over 6 figures to learn how to improve many aspects of my life.   However, some of the most important mentorships I've benefited from have been totally free and come from unlikely relationships.  In this episode, I talk about the mentorship I've received from one of my sisters-in-law.  On paper, our lives are wildly different.  We were born in different generations, have had very different career paths, and many different interests.  However, there is an overlap in some of our most important core values that has always made it feel like she just gets me.  That said, she approaches life with a quiet wisdom and deep curiosity that I don't have (yet).  I pay close attention to how she asks questions, how she listens with her head and her heart, how she speaks with compassion, and how she is never afraid to learn or try something new.  I'm curious for you, who are the people you already have proximity to who might be your greatest teachers, even though they lead a very different life than you?  And, what might happen if you were to identify and adopt some of their greatest strengths as your next stepping stones of growth?  Listen in to learn how to find and learn from these kinds of unlikely mentors in your life.  Links Mentioned: [Open Enrollment] Join Sara's Aligned Leadership Incubator: saradean.com/aligned Hire me to speak: saradean.com/speaking Coach with me: https://saradean.com/executive-coaching-services Connect with me on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/saradeanspeaks Watch Shameless Leadership episodes on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@saradeanspeaks Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode of The Impostor Syndrome Files, we explore how to make friends in an era of loneliness. My guest this week is Dr. Linda Lin, a psychology professor at Emmanuel College who has spent more than two decades researching and teaching about mental health, happiness and well-being. Through her course, The Psychology of Wellness and Happiness, Linda helps students move beyond surface-level wellness tips to better understand what it really means to live a meaningful and connected life.Together, we talk about the shifting landscape of connection, especially for younger generations, and how technology, the pandemic and evolving social norms have made it harder to build and maintain authentic relationships. Linda shares what she's seeing in her own classroom, from once-lively chatter before class to eerily quiet rooms where students rarely interact, and how that reflects a broader cultural shift. Linda also breaks down the five essential ingredients of strong friendships and how we can use them to deepen existing relationships or build new ones. This conversation offers simple but powerful tools to help you reconnect with yourself and others.About My GuestDr. Linda Lin is an international expert on mental health who has conducted psychological research on well-being, body image, and health behaviors for the past 30 years and has published dozens of scientific journal articles and book chapters.

"Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it" (Matt. 16:25). This week we're joined by Fr. Carter Griffin, rector of the St. John Paul II Seminary in the Archdiocese of Washington, and Alvaro de Vicente, headmaster of The Heights School, to examine "discernment."

He is also a father, husband, and loves coffee and tacos. So with that, Chad, welcome to the Econ Breakthrough Podcast.Chad 00:00:35  Thank you for having me. Excited to be here.Josh 00:00:37  I want to ask you the question, Chad. You've you've gone through multiple exits. You have your own ecom brand. Why the focus on pricing and why is it so important at the end of the day?Chad 00:00:48  Yeah. So. Well, firstly, the reason why I was focused on price was that I was trying. I'm trying. I'm still working through it. I've been working on turning around my e-commerce business. It's been deteriorated over time. Didn't get a lot of love for me as I've been building other initiatives in my life.Chad 00:01:03  And so, you know, for me, I optimize spend and my ACOs, and I've been optimizing our conversion rate and my listings itself and the infographics on those listing pages. But the one thing that's driving the most to the bottom line is a very small lever, and it swings big doors, but it's not being swung with price. And I just couldn't understand why. Like if we have a $10,000 ad campaign, you would never leave it on. You would never leave it on optimized, you'd always be optimizing it. So why is nobody optimizing price? Because it's a it's hard to understand and it's very manual. And by the time you make the change to the price, the market shifted. So this is why I focus on it. And it's a juicy it's a delicious problem.Josh 00:01:50  It really is. And it can provide I mean it's a huge impact to your bottom line, right? If you want to, you know, increase your bottom line, the best way to do it is just by raising your prices.Josh 00:02:01  Says Roland Frazier, one of the previous guests that we've had on the show. One of the things that he does first, when he acquires any businesses is he simply raises prices. Because to your point, so many brands do not touch their price. They're too scared to be honest with you because they're like, well, I like sales where they're at. If I raise them, you know, 10%, 25%, I'm going to lose it. All right. And I think I actually fell in that camp prior to all of the inflationary environment that we've been in recently with Amazon continually increasing their FBA fees. You've got manufacturers increasing, you know, the cost of goods that you're purchasing from them. ACOs is going up ads. So with all of that, like our back was against the wall, although I felt like, hey, 1999 is kind of the that's the tipping point. You go over the $20 like you cross that mental bridge of $20 and something cents Since all heck is going to break loose, right? And I'm just going to be in a downward spiral, lose my market share.Josh 00:03:08  And on the contrary, we raise the price by $5, increase the price by 25%, and still maintain we were currently the number two best seller in that entire product category. Didn't move a needle. We stayed right there. Now we've got more profit coming to the bottom line. So I want to ask you the question, Chad. Like, are you seeing the same thing with a lot of the clients that you're working with and these early users of the software, that there is more room to increase prices on Amazon, and it's not affecting organic rankings or it's not a spiral downward. Or are you seeing the opposite true of hey, really like lower your price? Yeah, you get margin compression. But man, you you shoot to the roof and you stay locked in in those top positions. What what have you seen.Chad 00:03:57  Well, okay. So Profasee in general is about maximizing profit without sacrificing your BSR. So there's a lot of people in the Amazon space that say, just raise prices. And that's a lot of times could be reckless advice and insight, right? Because like, pricing isn't one size fits all.Chad 00:04:14  And yes, pricing needs to change. But the question is should it go up or should it go down because you can increase price and that may offset demand and you can lower price. It may spur demand. It'll increase ...

I stopped taking arbitrary advice from every mentor I hired and started using discernment like a weapon in my business.For a long time, I was consuming every module, every audio, trying to implement everyone else's strategy .. & completely lost myself in the process. I forgot how I built my first business: throwing spaghetti at the wall, trusting my own ideas, making it up as I went and becoming a professional by coaching and leading, not by perfectly copying someone's framework.Inside this episode, I break down:How “acting like a follower” quietly erodes your brand, your voice, and your authorityWhy most coaches feel stuck in their content (it's not that you don't know what to say it's that you don't trust what you have to say)Why evolving in front of your audience is a power move, and why people hide when they're not proud of how they lead behind the scenesThe client case study who dropped her best-ever micro-offer after we stopped over-strategizing and let her trust the idea that actually felt aliveHow I use transparency, self-responsibility, and my own real-time leadership as my funnel and why clients pay to be in the slipstream of thatIf you're done contorting yourself to fit every mentor's “one right way” and ready to build a brand that actually feels like yours this is the calibration.If this hit and you know you're done building your business on other people's brains, RQ1 is your next move.Three months with me actually tightening your capacity, leadership and offer strategy in real time .. not in theory.$333/month or $1000 paid in full.

Send us a textWant a real blueprint for turning a franchise into a life-changing asset? We sat down with Jay and Carolina Orosa to unpack how they went from corporate careers to building, scaling, and exiting a thriving home care franchise—and why they're now mentoring new owners inside our team. Their story blends heart and hard numbers: a culture rooted in compassion for clients and caregivers, and a playbook grounded in unit economics, pricing discipline, and weekly-to-quarterly financial rigor.We break down the moves that matter: defining roles around strengths to avoid stepping on each other's toes, documenting processes so the business can grow without you, and resisting price pressure by adding value rather than discounting. Jay explains why a franchise sells you a system, not outcomes—and how the mindset shift from employee to owner powers execution. Carolina dives into brand versus logo, showing how a clear promise and consistent delivery attract the right clients, staff, and even future buyers. We also talk risk management most owners miss, from insurance audits to partner due diligence, and how clean books and a resilient margin profile can draw strong offers from private equity.For operators and explorers alike, we map where the next wave is building: health and recovery concepts focused on longevity, senior care with durable demand, and tech-enabled home services you can run from your phone. The throughline is alignment—choosing a model that fits your lifestyle, runway, and strengths, then building for exit from day one. If you're ready to trade “what if” for a plan, hit play, take notes, and start your exploration while momentum is on your side.If this conversation helped you see a path from job to asset, follow the show, share it with a friend, and leave a quick review so more builders can find it.

In this episode of Your Yes Filled Life, I'm pulling back the curtain and getting very real with you. If you've been feeling anxious, scattered, or unsure - and maybe even wondering if there's something wrong with you - I want you to know this: you're likely not overwhelmed, you're overloaded. You're carrying energy that doesn't belong to you, and it's burying your intuition and your peace. I share candidly about the past two years in my business and life - the failed launches, the chronic over-giving, the hard pivots, and how I'm making different choices now. You'll also hear what I'm changing in my work, why I'm closing Your Yes Filled Life group program, and how I'm creating spaces like The Reset Retreat for intuitive, empathic leaders who want to stop absorbing everything and start trusting themselves again. If you've ever been told you're “too sensitive,” if you feel everything, or if you've silently wondered why things still feel so hard even when you're “doing the work” - this one is for you.

In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit with Jamar Silva, a director and photographer shaped by the rhythm of Jamaica. He grew up in a place that teaches you who you are by showing you both sides of life. Beauty and struggle. Stillness and pressure. That duality trained his eye to find light where others see only shadow and to honor the raw truth that lives in every frame. Jamar brings that sensibility into projects like Yung Bredda with Chloe Bailey, Big Chat with DJ Puffy, and his short film 1816, each one a step toward a future he hopes reaches the big screen. Jamar speaks about the tension that follows him. The chase for achievement pulls at one side of him while the search for meaning pulls at the other. At twenty seven, he is learning how to navigate a world that rewards conformity even as he refuses to blend in. His work is shaped by those who came before him and those who will come after. Their influence is a compass he carries through challenges that have demanded resilience, humility, and a constant return to self. That process becomes the heartbeat of his storytelling, whether he is filming the energy of a performer or the quiet truth of Payne's Bay Fish Market. We explore how his art becomes a mirror for his internal dialogue. Jamar believes the questions are just as important as the answers. His stories are built from that search. They breathe with curiosity, conflict, and discovery. He talks about how adventure fuels his creativity. A road, a camera, a playlist, and no fixed map. He looks for the hidden places. The quiet corners. The scenes that introduce themselves without warning. For him, the journey holds the magic because it brings out moments that cannot be staged. Jamar also shares gratitude for the community that surrounds him in the country he now calls home. Friends who step in front of his lens. Clients and strangers who connect with his vision. Mentors and peers who steady him when doubt creeps in. Their presence shapes the way he works and the way he lives. Together, we uncover the story of an artist who refuses to rush past his own evolution and instead chooses to build work that is honest, grounded, and alive.     Jamar Silva Socials and Website:  Jamar Silva  Source: Instagram Jamar Silva (@lextookit) • Instagram photos and videos  Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

Edward English grew up between Houston and Ohio in a turbulent home marked by an absent father and an abusive stepfather. Put on Ritalin from ages 7 to 17, he struggled with confidence and identity — eventually turning to drugs as a way to escape. What started as experimentation spiraled into an eight-year heroin addiction that led to his arrest in 2011 for possession, distribution, and trafficking. Sentenced to nearly eight years in prison, Edward served 4.5 before being released in 2016. Behind bars, everything changed. Through faith, mentorship, and personal growth programs, he transformed his mindset and rebuilt his life from the inside out — a journey he documents in his memoir Emersion. Today, Edward is 14 years clean, a husband, father, and commercial plumber in Columbus, Ohio, dedicated to helping others overcome addiction and find purpose after prison. His story is one of pain, perseverance, and the power of true transformation. #LockedInWithIanBick #PrisonStories #TrueCrime #AddictionRecovery #HeroinAddiction #OhioPrison #RedemptionStory #realstories Thank you to DAWS for sponsoring this episode: Go to http://www.daws.org/ to donate, adopt or send items from their wishlist.
