In this episode, Dr. K pulls back the curtain on his personal "protocol" for maintaining mental health and focus while balancing high-pressure roles as a psychiatrist, content creator, and caregiver. He argues against making life "too easy," suggesting instead that we should intentionally train our cognitive fitness to resist the deconditioning effects of modern technology. By viewing energy as a finite battery and learning to disbelieve the mind's biases, he provides a framework for building long-term resilience and reclaiming a sense of autonomy. What to expect in this episode: The Intentional Struggle: Why Dr. K sleeps with his phone next to his bed specifically to train his willpower by resisting the urge to use it for the first hour of the day. Energy vs. Caffeine: Understanding that caffeine is a "loan" against future energy rather than a source of it, and how to identify the specific habits that actually recharge your internal battery. The Power of Pratyahara: An introduction to the meditative practice of sensory withdrawal, which helps you pull your attention away from digital triggers and back into your mind. Stopping the "Power Through": Why you should immediately quit entertainment like video games or TV shows the moment they become boring instead of wasting time waiting for them to "get good". Passion Projects First: The psychological importance of spending the first hour of your day on personal goals to maintain a sense of autonomy before the world's demands take over. Disbelieving the Mind: How to recognize and distance yourself from black-and-white thinking and toxic comparisons, treating the mind as an imperfect instrument rather than a "beacon of truth". Strategic Napping: Why a 20-minute nap is the "sweet spot" for physiological recovery without entering the deeper sleep stages that cause grogginess. The Role of Foundations: A candid look at how financial security and a supportive family provide the necessary foundation that allows these mental health protocols to be truly effective.

The human brain works very hard behind the scenes even in the most mundane aspects of daily life, like enjoying a nice day or determining the meaning of chit-chat with a friend. Ferreting out the basis and structures of our brain's labor is the domain of Daniel Yon, a psychologist and neuroscientists and director of the Uncertainty Lab at Birkbeck, University of London. In this Social Science Bites podcast, Yon - author of the 2025 book A Trick of the Mind: How the Brain Invents Your Reality -- details for interviewer David Edmonds why he feels that just as science itself represents a solid - but not "bullet-proof" way of interpreting the natural world, science also well describes how the brain itself does the same. "I think that at the heart of what I think science and the brain share is this preoccupation with building theories and models based on the data that you've gathered and using those theories to make sense of the world around you. That's a very powerful way to make sense of things," he explains, before adding the caveat, "but it also means that once you start to build your theories and paradigms, they can become the filter and the lens through which everything else gets seen." Yon's scholarship has earned him a number of honors, such as the Experimental Psychology Society's EPS Prize and the Janet Taylor Spence Award from the Association for Psychological Science. He has also been named a Rising Star by the Cognitive Neuroscience Society and received a mid-career fellowship by the British Academy.

We all know that stories are important when we're engaging decisionmakers. But we don't always know what story is going to be the right story. And how to tell that story in a way that is really going to pull that decisionmaker in, and actually move them closer to yes. So often I hear from Nonprofit leaders who tell me they brought what they thought was their best story to a conversation with a decisionmaker, and it didn't really seem to shift anything. It's not that it didn't land at all, but it didn't seem to get any traction either. We want every part of our messaging to be designed specifically to pull that decisionmaker in, and move them closer to yes. Your stories are absolutely no exception. In fact, they can be one of the most powerful tools in your toolkit, if you know how to use them to greatest effect. In this episode, we share: The differences between a story that sells, and one that doesn'tHow to make sure the story you tell is the right one for this particular decisionmakerThe first thing you must do before you begin crafting a storyHow to use story to teach a needed lesson to a decisionmaker, that they will actually learnHow to use story to dismantle a decisionmaker's unhelpful beliefsHow to create vivid metaphors that stick in the decisionmaker's mindHow to build an element of unpredictability into your story that keeps the decisionmaker engaged Help spread the word! If you found value in this episode, I'd be grateful if you would leave a review on iTunes or wherever you listen. Your reviews help other nonprofit leaders find the podcast. Thanks!!

Over the past decade, she has partnered with leadership teams at public and high-growth companies to build operating models that support distributed work, enable durable growth, and strengthen resilience. At Virta Health, she built and scaled a fully remote organization recognized by Inc. as a Best Place to Work during a period of rapid expansion. At Patreon, she led the team through hypergrowth, M&A integration, and cultural evolution. Earlier in her career at Yahoo, Lucia designed and implemented analytics and decision-making infrastructure across EMEA, APAC, and the Americas. She holds a PhD in Organizational Behavior from Stanford GSB and brings a systems-driven approach to how organizations operate and evolve at scale. Takeaways: 1. Honesty Is the Most Underrated Employee Benefit Lucia's diagnosis of broken cultures is blunt: a lack of honesty. In an era defined by uncertainty — AI, economic volatility, global instability — employees want leaders and organizations that will be straight with them. Transparency isn't a communication strategy; it's a cultural foundation. 2. Bring Your Customers Into Your Culture Virta Health keeps honesty alive by bringing its patients — the people receiving its treatment — into all-hands meetings, offsites, and board meetings. It's a radical form of accountability that makes it impossible to lose sight of what the organization is actually for. 3. Remote Done Right Is About Trust, Not Tools Flexibility is a genuine benefit — but only if it comes with trust, clear expectations, and a genuine output-over-hours mentality. Lucia's philosophy: I hired you to do a job from anywhere. Get it done. The moment you start monitoring screen time or sending 3 AM emails, you've broken the contract. 4. Know Your Population Before You Design Your Benefits Virta's benefits strategy starts with a simple question: who are our people and what do they need? Their workforce is majority women in their 30s — so fertility benefits aren't a nice-to- have, they're a core part of the value proposition. Benefits designed without demographic insight don't land. 5. Compensation Comes First — Then Benefits Can Differentiate You cannot win a talent war on benefits alone. Market-rate base, bonus, and long-term incentives have to be in place first. Once they are, benefits become the layer that signals culture and meets employees where they are in their lives. 6. Engagement Is the Proxy Metric for Peace of Mind How do you quantify something as qualitative as peace of mind? Lucia's answer: Track engagement before and after benefits changes. Employees who feel supported show up more connected to the organization. That connection is measurable — and it ties directly to retention and performance. 7. The Attrition Argument Wins the Benefits Budget Conversation When employees are in a high-stakes life phase — fertility, family planning, caregiving — and the company doesn't meet them there, they leave. The cost of replacing them is almost always higher than the cost of the benefit. Lucia builds her ROI case on that math, and it works. 8. AI Is Forcing Leaders to Lead With Meaning As AI automates the transactional parts of management, leaders are left with the one thing AI can't provide: genuine human connection and meaning. Lucia sees this as a cause for optimism — organizations that were coasting on process are now being pushed to actually invest in their people. 9. 3 AM Emails Are a Leadership Failure, Not a Work Ethic Signal Managers who send late-night or weekend messages aren't demonstrating dedication — they're demonstrating poor planning and setting a cultural expectation that others shouldn't have to absorb. If urgency is manufactured, the fix is upstream, not a Sunday Slack message. CHAPTERS: 00:00 – Introduction Adam welcomes Lucia Guillory, CPO at Virta Health, and gets a quick overview of what the company does — including their recent breakthrough linking their treatment to extended survival in pancreatic cancer patients. 02:00 – From Isolation to PhD: How Lucia Got Into People Lucia traces her path into organizational behavior through a personal lens — growing up dyslexic and with ADHD, studying people as a way to understand belonging, and ultimately earning a PhD to drive change in organizations. 05:00 – What's Most Broken in Bad Cultures Lucia's direct answer: a lack of honesty. In a world of tariffs, AI anxiety, and geopolitical turbulence, employees want authenticity and transparency above everything else — and it's rarer than it should be. 07:30 – How Virta Bakes Transparency In Virta's unusual approach to keeping honesty at the forefront: bringing patients (members) into all-hands meetings, offsites, and even board meetings — making it impossible to hide what's working and what isn't. 10:30 – Remote Done Right What it actually means to be a fully remote organization: output over hours, trust over monitoring, flexibility as a genuine benefit, and clear communication as the operating system that holds it all together. 13:30 – The 3 AM Email Problem Lucia's take on managers who send emails at 3 AM or on weekends: it's a leadership failure, not a badge of honor — and employees have to vote with their feet if that's the culture. 16:00 – Total Comp: Where Benefits Fit In You can't win on benefits alone — market compensation has to be there first. But once it is, benefits become the differentiator. Lucia's framework: know your population and design accordingly. 18:30 – Fertility Benefits & Knowing Your Workforce Why Virta chose Carrot as their fertility benefits platform — and how understanding that their workforce is majority women in their 30s made this an obvious, high-impact investment across the full spectrum of family planning. 21:30 – Measuring the ROI of Peace of Mind How do you put a number on peace of mind? Lucia's answer: track engagement. Benefits that reduce stress and meet employees where they are show up directly in engagement scores — and engagement ties to retention and performance. 24:00 – Linking Benefits to Attrition The business case Lucia makes to finance: when employees are in a critical life phase — fertility, family planning, caregiving — failing to meet them there drives attrition. The cost of that attrition is measurable. The cost of the benefit usually isn't. 26:30 – What's Lighting Lucia Up: AI & the Return of Meaning Lucia's optimistic take on the AI moment: as transactional management gets automated away, leaders are being forced to show up with something AI can't provide — meaning, connection, and genuine investment in their people.
This is a special episode and a collaboration with my daughter, Aurora. In the ?take your kids to work day' we built this episode together...maybe the beginning of a collaboration????Breath is something we do automatically… but very few people actually know how to use it, or use it.In this episode, we explore Breathwork as a performance tool, not just a relaxation technique. Because breath is the fastest way to influence your state (mentally and physically) in real time.When pressure rises, your breathing changes. And if you don't control it, it starts controlling you.This episode will help you understand:Why breath is the bridge between body and mindHow your nervous system reacts under stressWhy breathwork is a pillar of performance (not just wellness)When to use breath to calm down, focus, recover, or re-energizeTwo simple breathing techniques you can start using immediatelyBreath is always available. The question is—are you using it with intention?
f your heart is racing, your chest feels tight, or you feel like you're losing control—stop. You are safe. This episode is your "emergency stop" button, designed and led by a former paramedic with 25 years of experience on the front lines of medical emergencies.In this session, we don't just "relax"; we use biological "manual overrides" to signal to your brain that the fire is out. You'll learn the medical reality behind your symptoms—like why your fingers tingle—to move your mind from a state of emotional panic back into logical control.Episode Chapters0:00 – The Paramedic's Reassurance: A direct message of safety from Martin.1:00 – The Emergency Stop: Guided breathing to offload $CO_2$ and reset your blood pH.4:30 – The Science of the "Tingles": Understanding Respiratory Alkalosis and why your body isn't broken.5:45 – Mindful Release: Dropping the physical weight of anxiety from your jaw and shoulders.6:20 – Affirmations for Power: Reprogramming the inner narrative.8:30 – 3 Tips to Quench the Knot: Immediate actions for future moments of rising heat.9:40 – Mastering the Mind: How to go beyond the "quick fix".The AffirmationsRepeat these internally to reclaim your ownership of this moment:"My body is a masterpiece of survival, and right now, it's returning to peace." "I am the observer of these sensations, not a victim of them." "I have survived every panic attack before this, and I am already through this one." 3 Pro-Active Tips to Stop Panic EarlyWhen you first feel that knot in your stomach, use these paramedic-approved techniques:The Cold Water Shock: Splash your face with ice-cold water or hold an ice cube to trigger the mammalian dive reflex and instantly slow your heart rate.Name the Beast: Say out loud, "This is an adrenaline spike, not a heart attack." Labeling it moves brain activity from the emotional center to the logical one.The 5-Second Out-Breath: Blow all your air out for five seconds. This forces your body to take a deep, corrective inhale, triggering an automatic reset.A Note from MartinI've been where you are—I've had horrendous panic attacks in my past. It was through my work as a paramedic that I discovered how to coach the body back to calm.

Half of young Muslims at university suffer from anxiety or depression.In this latest episode of the Firmly Rooted podcast, Asim Khan argues that Islam has always addressed mental health - through Quranic stories of prophets experiencing grief, anxiety, and fear - but cultural stigma has caused Muslims to treat these struggles as signs of weak faith rather than human realities God has already spoken to.He offers a holistic framework: combining spiritual grounding (Quran, reliance on God, prophetic example) with practical steps like physical exercise, good companionship, and professional support from Muslim clinicians. The conversation is especially aimed at university-age Muslims navigating loneliness, identity pressure, and the compounding effect of Islamophobia.This episode covers:Why mental health stigma in Muslim communities often comes from culture, not Islam - and what the Quran actually says about the mindHow prophets like Yaqub (AS) and Musa (AS) experienced what we'd today call depression and anxiety, and what they did with itThe holistic approach: why spiritual, physical, and emotional wellbeing are inseparable in IslamPractical steps for Muslim students - from choosing the right friend circle and seeking Muslim clinicians, to reciting Quran aloud before your exams
What's one thing you can do consistently that actually deepens relationships with referral partners? In this episode, we're getting practical. No big strategy shifts, just a simple habit that, when done consistently, builds trust, keeps you top of mind, and leads to more deals over time. Most brokers overcomplicate relationship building. They wait for the perfect reason to reach out, or only connect when they need something. This is about flipping that by showing up regularly in a way that actually adds value. What We Cover: • The Habit That Most Brokers Skip – Why consistency beats intensity every time. • Staying Top of Mind – How small touchpoints turn into long-term referrals. • What to Actually Send – Simple ways to add value without overthinking it. • Making It Repeatable – How to build this into your weekly workflow. You don't need a better pitch. You need to show up more often.

What if your anxiety, mood swings, and exhaustion aren't signs that something is broken—but signals that your body is working exactly as designed, just under the wrong conditions? In this episode, Kate sits down with Alex Mufson, founder of Canary House and a Licensed Clinical Social Worker specializing in high-functioning women, to explore how burnout, chronic stress, and over-functioning rewire your nervous system and show up as what we call "mood disorders." They dig into the real physiology behind intrusive thoughts, depression, and anxiety—and why your conventional lab work might say you're fine while your body is screaming for help.In this episode we explore:How high-functioning becomes a physiological pattern—and why "being strong" can mask serious nervous system dysregulationThe difference between "not dead" labs and actually thriving, and why functional medicine sees what conventional medicine missesWhy anxiety and intrusive thoughts are often expressions of metabolic stress (glucose crashes, neurotransmitter rerouting) rather than purely psychological issuesNeuroimmune dysregulation: when your brain leaves the inflammatory "toll" open, causing symptoms that move around your body and feel like you're losing your mindHow to start: the functional tests that matter, the practitioners worth finding, and why "everything looks good" doesn't mean you feel goodAlex Mufson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and founder of Canary House, an integrative healing practice specializing in high-functioning individuals living with persistent exhaustion, pain, and unexplained symptoms despite normal or inconclusive labs.

In this Power Hour teaching from Word on the Way for Central Assembly of God, we talk about:How to let go of the past without denying itWhy unforgiveness and victim mentality keep people stuckWhat the Bible says about forgiveness, freedom, and renewing the mindHow reframing, releasing, and speaking truth out loud leads to real healingWhy your life can look completely different one month from now if you apply God's WordThis teaching is rooted in Scripture and focuses on practical obedience, not just emotion. Jesus said His instructions lead to life — and when we follow them, freedom becomes real.
Most men don't fail because they lack motivation. They fail because they never set real standards. In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface break down exactly how to create standards that actually hold up under pressure—not hype-driven rules you break a week later, but identity-based minimums that shape your life.Using examples from SEAL training, family leadership, physical health, and everyday life, Garrett explains why standards are the minimum you're willing to accept, not your best day or your intentions. When standards are clear, binary, and tied to purpose, they eliminate negotiation and build discipline automatically.In this episode, you'll learn:Why standards must be set from a sober mindHow to anchor standards to identity, not emotionsThe role values play in making standards sustainableWhy defining the minimum protects you from disasterHow binary standards eliminate excusesWhat to do when you break a standard—and how to recover without quittingGarrett also walks through a real-world example of setting a physical health standard and explains why protecting the floor of your life matters more than chasing peaks.If you've ever said “this is my standard” and then watched yourself violate it, this episode will give you a framework to reset, rebuild, and move forward with clarity.

In this episode of Divorce at Altitude, co-host Ryan Kalamaya is joined by associate attorney Makenzie Ralston to discuss how discretionary trusts are treated in a Colorado divorce.Ryan and McKenzie explain when a trust may truly be protected, when it can be considered property, and when it may still affect property division, spousal maintenance, or child support—even if it is not divisible. Using common divorce scenarios and Colorado case law, they break down how trust language, trustee discretion, and distribution history can dramatically impact divorce outcomes.Guest Information: McKenzie RalstonMcKenzie Ralston is an associate attorney at Kalamaya | Goscha with a background in estate planning and tax law. She earned her law degree and Master of Laws in Taxation from the University of Denver Sturm College of Law and focuses on the intersection of trusts, estate planning, and domestic relations.Episode OutlineWhat Is a Discretionary Trust?An overview of trust roles—settlor, trustee, and beneficiary—and how discretionary distribution standards such as health, education, maintenance, and support operate.Revocable vs. Irrevocable TrustsWhy revocable trusts generally are not property interests for beneficiaries, how irrevocable trusts differ, and when a trust may become relevant in divorce proceedings.Colorado Case Law on TrustsA discussion of In re Marriage of Jones and In re Marriage of Balanson, and how courts analyze enforceable rights versus discretionary interests.Economic Circumstances vs. PropertyHow a trust may not be property—but still influence property division as an economic circumstance in a divorce.Trustee Control and Distribution PatternsWhy consistent distributions, beneficiary control, and trustee appointment powers can undermine claims that a trust is fully discretionary.Trust Distributions as IncomeHow regular and dependable trust distributions may be included as gross income for spousal maintenance and child support calculations.Drafting Trusts With Divorce in MindHow thoughtful trust drafting—spendthrift provisions, independent trustees, divorce-triggered protections, and prenuptial requirements—can provWhat is Divorce at Altitude?

After experiencing Bhutan — a destination that sat at the very top of my travel list for years — I found myself in an unexpected place. Not rushing to plan the next trip, not chasing the next highlight, but sitting in a quiet lull and asking myself a simple question: what places won't leave my mind now?In this episode of the Winging It Travel Podcast, I share 16 places I can't stop thinking about travelling to right now — not as a bucket list, not as recommendations, but as an honest reflection on how travel inspiration shifts over time.Some of these destinations are familiar and grounding.

He has since worked with over 2,000 clients across physical, mental, emotional, energetic, and spiritual domains, supporting men in becoming more grounded, capable, and fully expressed.In this conversation, we explore:Chris' personal journey as a serial entrepreneur, and the life-altering transition point that reshaped how he relates to success, identity, and leadershipWhy moments of breakdown can serve as powerful initiations into deeper maturity, rather than something to avoid or bypassThe core distinctions between boy psychology and man psychology, and how these patterns show upHow men can learn to lead themselves through moments of breakdown and transition, and cultivate more honest, grounded, and truthful expressions of who they areWhat masculine leadership truly entails in Chris' perspectiveThe importance of developing the capacity to listen, to our inner knowing, as a foundation for leadership and connectionThe importance of cultivating openness, humility, and a beginner's mindHow the Russian martial art Systema has been supporting Chris to step into deeper embodimentAt the heart of this conversation is a deeper inquiry into how we meet moments of breakdown in our lives... And how these moments, when met honestly and with sincerity, can become the ground for a more truthful, embodied, and mature expressions of who we are.This is a powerful conversation for any man navigating a transition, questioning his identity, or sensing that life is asking more of him.—Connect with Alex Lehmann:

Send Us A MessageYour sphere of influence contains a small group of people who actively sell for you - your advocates. Most agents fail to identify who these people are and, more importantly, fail to pour back into them with the same energy they receive. This episode breaks down how to identify your top 20-25 advocates and implement a personal, non-programmable approach to keeping them engaged and appreciated.Featured Quote: "I have seen it a number of times where $200,000 - $500,000 incomes are built upon 15, 20 advocates in the community. It doesn't take many to build a massive business in this business, in the real estate business, on a few advocates that are out in the community."What You Will LearnHow to identify the advocates already in your sphere of influenceWhy your top 20-25 relationships deserve the most intentional focusThe difference between personal service and programmable outreachWhy serving advocates rarely involves real estate conversationsThe minimum monthly cadence required to stay top of mindHow to celebrate referrals without it ever feeling redundantWhy 80% of business comes from your sphere even when you're not intentional about itListen to the Podcast on these PlatformsApple - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/raising-real-estate-standards/id1574549987Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1ZKLmFIFvx1UjSwL4jOTVzSocial Media and Contact InformationWebsite: https://www.raisingrealestatestandards.comLink Tree: https://linktr.ee/raisingrealestatestandards

Season 2 of On the Balcony begins by looking sideways — exploring the frameworks that stretch Adaptive Leadership into new terrain.In this first episode, Michael Koehler sits down with Dr. Lisa Lahey, co-author of Immunity to Change, faculty at the Harvard University Graduate School of Education and co-founder of Minds at Work. Lisa's work on adult development has profoundly shaped how we understand leadership — not as a set of skills to acquire, but as an internal capacity to grow.The conversation explores a question many of us wrestle with: Why do we resist the very changes we say we want?Lisa's answer: competing commitments and big assumptions. We're not just resisting change. We're protecting something we care deeply about — even when we don't realize it.This episode gets personal. Lisa coaches Michael through his own immunity to change around pushing his colleagues to use more AI. What emerges is a powerful demonstration of how our internal "immune system" keeps us safe — and stuck.What You'll Explore in This Episode:The shift from socialized to self-authoring mindHow we move from looking outside ourselves for approval to authoring our own values and commitments — and why this developmental shift matters for leadership.The Immunity to Change frameworkA practical, four-column exercise that uncovers the hidden commitments and big assumptions creating resistance to change.A live coaching sessionLisa walks Michael through the process in real time, revealing how deeply protective mechanisms work — and how to begin testing the assumptions that hold us back.How adult development and Adaptive Leadership are relatedBoth frameworks help us face complexity, hold competing commitments, and grow through challenge rather than around it.The influence of Chris ArgyrisHow Argyris's work on organizational learning shaped both Lisa's thinking and the broader field of developmental leadership.The power of the pauseA reflection on pausing not as a luxury, but as an act of deep responsibility to ourselves and the world.Quotes from This Episode:"You can grow your capacity to experience the world in different ways. And that difference keeps enabling you to hold greater complexity, take more perspectives, and handle greater ambiguity."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"There is a next place in development where you no longer are subject to meeting everybody's expectations of you. Instead, you get to be the author of your own expectations — grounded in your own sense of who you are and what you value."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"You have an aspiration to grow. You want to develop some capacity. And yet at the very same time, unbeknownst to you, you've got a whole inner curriculum actively working to protect yourself."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"The immunity to change process invites us to consider: we don't just have worries. We actually have a part of us actively committed to making sure those worries don't come true."— Dr. Lisa Lahey"It is not a luxury to pause. It is an act of deep responsibility to ourselves and the world."— Tara Brach (shared by Dr. Lisa Lahey)Links & Resources:Immunity to Change by Robert Kegan and Lisa Laskow Laheyhttps://www.amazon.com/Immunity-Change-Overcome-Unlock-Organization/dp/1422117367Minds at Work
Send us a textA conversation with Wesley WoodWhat happens when we stop planning for the “average” learner and instead design our classrooms with neurodivergent students and students with disabilities in mind? In this episode of Growing With Proficiency: The Podcast, I'm joined by Wesley Wood, Disability Specialist at Georgetown University and former world language teacher, for a powerful and eye-opening conversation about expanding what is possible in the language classroom.Wesley brings deep experience supporting students with disabilities as well as working side-by-side with world language teachers. Rather than focusing on labels or deficits, he invites us to see the strengths and identities our neurodivergent learners bring — and to plan instruction that welcomes different ways of processing, communicating, and engaging from the very beginning.Together, we explore:Why planning for the “middle” unintentionally leaves many students outHow planning for the margins strengthens learning for everyoneThe difference between accommodations and designing with accessibility in mindHow predictable routines, visuals, and co-created norms help students feel safe and ready to communicateWays to offer multiple paths to input: visuals, text, audio, modeling, and gesturesHow choice and flexible output honor students' strengths and lower anxietyWhat it looks like to slow down, observe, and truly see our studentsThis conversation connects deeply with the core of our work in world language classrooms: comprehensible input, communication, connection, and cultural competence. You'll walk away with mindset shifts and simple classroom practices you can begin using right away — not by doing more, but by seeing differently.If this episode resonates, make sure to follow the podcast, share it with a colleague, and tag Claudia on Instagram @claudiamelliott so we can continue learning and growing together.Resources:Growing With Proficiency The BlogGrowing With Proficiency The Spanish Teacher Academy WaitlistGrowing With Proficiency TPT StoreFree FB CommunityClick here to download for FREE ➡️➡️➡️ https://growingwithproficiency.com/diadegraciasClick here to download for FREE ➡️➡️➡️ https://growingwithproficiency.com/diadegracias
In Part Two of Clint's conversation with Shane Snow – award-winning journalist, entrepreneur, and best-selling author of “Dream Teams: Working Together Without Falling Apart” – the focus turns from what makes a great team to what makes a team truly high-performing. Shane explores the concept of “cognitive friction” and how constructive conflict, when handled with humility, is a catalyst for innovation rather than a barrier to it.The two also talk about the dangers of groupthink, the myth of culture fit, and why benevolence, not brilliance, is the real foundation of trust. With stories ranging from Steve Jobs' bathroom placement to Malcolm X's intellectual transformation, Shane explains how great teams cultivate shared thinking, mutual growth, and meaningful disagreement.. This is the second part of a two-part conversation.Topics Covered:What cognitive friction is and why teams need it to innovateHow leaders can separate disagreement from personal conflictWhy “culture fit” is overrated but “culture add” is essentialThe unexpected power of benevolence in building trustMalcolm X's reinvention and the courage to change your mindHow to proactively guard against groupthinkThe challenges of building high-performing teams in hybrid and remote workWhat the phrase “let's explore that” can do for your team cultureLinks:Shane's website - https://www.shanesnow.com/Shane's LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/shanedsnow/Shane's book, “Dream Teams” - https://amzn.to/4qz7M4f

Why are we here? How do we think? What is the nature of life? What are the boundaries between ourselves and the rest of the living web—between ourselves and the rest of the universe across space and through time…and in the timeless, formless place from which everything arises?These are the big, foundational questions of our existence, and how we answer them shapes how we see ourselves and our relationship to everything around us. If we work on a human supremacist frame, then we have no qualms about destroying the rest of the living web. If we know ourselves to be integral to it, if we can 'prove' this at a scientific level, then perhaps we can shift the way we behave. Dr James Cooke is an author, researcher and host of the Living Mirrors Podcast which is how I got to know him. He has three degrees from Oxford, including a PhD in neuroscience. He has been conducting research into the brain basis of consciousness and at the University of London, he achieved a theoretical breakthrough that linked philosophy, the latest in cognitive neuroscience and modern secular mysticism. Outside academia, he directs the Inner Space Institute for NonDual Naturalism, a center for education and participation in topics at the intersection of science & spirituality. It is here, it says, 'To help you engage in spiritual development in a way that is scientifically grounded.' Nondual Naturalism is a worldview that synthesises science and spiritual insight, centred around the recognition that we are not separate from nature and are fundamentally at home in existence and James expands on this in detail in his book, The Dawn of Mind: How matter became conscious and alive which synthesises science and contemplative insight to offer a radical solution to the Hard Problem of Consciousness and the question of our place in existence.James' website: https://www.drjamescooke.com/The Inner Space Institute: https://www.innerspaceinstitute.org/The Dawn of Mind Book https://uk.bookshop.org/book/9781633889927Living Mirrors Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/living-mirrors-with-dr-james-cooke/id1516523741James on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@DrJamesCookeWhat we offer: Accidental Gods, Dreaming Awake and the Thrutopia Writing Masterclass If you'd like to join our next Open Gathering offered by our Accidental Gods Programme it's 'Dreaming Your Death Awake' (you don't have to be a member) it's on 2nd November - details are here.If you'd like to join us at Accidental Gods, this is the membership where we endeavour to help you to connect fully with the living web of life.
