Ask Rachel anythingWe want our kids to do as well as possible, so when they mess up, do dumb things, or seem to be failing, it's easy to focus on their mistakes and what they should do instead. Naomi Glover, a leading applied neuroscientist and brain health specialist, says we'd get the best out of our kids by doing the opposite; focusing on their strengths.Coming from a  neurodivergent family, she truly understands the challenges faced by ADHD, dyslexia, and other neurotypes and offers practical, easy-to-use “brain hacks” for things like anxiety, focus, and emotional regulation.Naomi believes that once we understand how our brain works, we can work with it—not against it this episode gives us those tips.Naomi Glover:https://neuro-informed.comFind your strengths:PARENTS: https://www.viacharacter.org/survey/pro/parentingstrengths/account/registerUNDER 18'S: https://StrengthBoostU18.pro.viasurvey.org/Top tips:Lead with strengths, not deficitsRegularly name what your teen does well (kindness, perseverance, curiosity, humour, etc.) instead of only correcting what's missing.Swap judgment for curiosityUse phrases like “I noticed…”, “Tell me more about what happened”, and “What could we do differently next time?” to keep conversations safe and open.Use recognition as rocket fuel (especially with ADHD/RSD)Give specific, genuine praise:“That was really kind leadership when you…”“I really appreciated you helping with the washing up – that was great teamwork.”Reduce brain overload with routines and single-taskingBuild simple, predictable habits (e.g. “Saturday is bed-linen day”).Avoid multitasking; do one thing at a time and protect focus where possible.Teach nervous-system resetsUse quick tools for you and your teen:Breathing: in for 4, out for 8, 3–5 times.Nature breaks: ~20 minutes outside to reset attention and mood.teenagersuntangled.substack.comSupport the showPlease hit the follow button if you like the podcast, and share it with anyone who might benefit.

Reach out! I'd love to hear from you!The quiet season wasn't silence—it was preparation. After a soul-led pause, we're back with fresh gratitude, stories from a women's leadership cohort at Denver Seminary, and three hard-won lessons that make faith durable on busy, imperfect days. If you've ever tried to juggle calling, family, church, and your own growth without burning out, you'll find language and practices here that lift the weight without lowering the standard.We start with the simple phrase that rescued so many weeks: reasonable best. It's the antidote to perfectionism and the ally of perseverance, a way to honor limits while showing up with integrity. From there, we step into charitable theology, a love-shaped approach to truth that holds firm to Scripture while staying humble with one another in the gray. Across denominations and perspectives, we've watched unity deepen when we refuse to weaponize certainty and instead let conviction and kindness share the same table.To ground it all, we share an everyday framework for reading the Bible and praying with honesty: Am I asking God or telling God? Am I obeying the word or quietly rebelling? This lens turns devotion into transformation you can feel in your schedule, your tone, and your relationships. Along the way, we talk about the cohort of women leading in different contexts, the joy and stretch of graduate study with a full life, and the call to be intentional encouragers—people who ask the second question, offer prayer, and create a small domino of hope.If this encouraged you, share it with a friend who could use a lift today. Subscribe, leave a review so more women can find the show, and tell us which practice you're trying this week—reasonable best, charitable theology, or the asking-and-obeying check. Your voice helps this community grow. Now get out into the world and be a woman who intentionally encourages another! #women #podcast

Hello to you listening in Mountain View, California!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.  Hand on heart: I can still behave like an over-stretched, over-committed, dutiful, responsible, and driven first-born daughter. Do it right or don't do it at all.Maybe like me you find yourself doing it all wrong by trying to do it all right. We have these notions--born of long-ago outdated, outmoded stories--about what we're supposed to do, have, create, earn, market, publish, reconfigure, reorganize, envision, and connect. But I can't and I don't want to do it all perfectly. I want to Be rather messy in my life.  Practical Tip: Let's stop for a moment. How would it feel if we “should” less on our own good selves? What if - even for a moment - we invite the power of the pause, peace and space. Did you just breathe a deep sigh of relief? Perhaps drop your shoulders? Maybe even smile at your silly human self? Me, too. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!" Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, bring your friends and rellies, and join us! You will have wonderful company as we continue to walk our lives together.

Two-time Emmy and Three-time NAACP Image Award-winning, television Executive Producer Rushion McDonald interviewed Dr. Willie Jolley. SUMMARY OF THE INTERVIEW In this energetic and motivational conversation, Hall of Fame speaker Dr. Willie Jolley joins Rushion McDonald on Money Making Conversations Masterclass to discuss his new book, “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better.” The interview covers the difference between being rich and being wealthy, the mindsets required for long-term financial growth, and how individuals—no matter their background—can build generational wealth. Jolley also emphasizes discipline, humility, planning, multiple streams of income, overcoming setbacks, and the importance of insurance and protection of assets. PURPOSE OF THE INTERVIEW The interview aims to: 1. Introduce and promote Dr. Jolley’s new book “Rich Is Good, Wealthy Is Better” and the teachings within it. 2. Educate listeners on the distinction between rich and wealthy Jolley wants audiences to understand wealth in generational, not short-term, terms. 3. Motivate individuals to shift their financial mindset From “working money” to “mailbox money.” 4. Empower entrepreneurs and families To adopt discipline, drop pride, and create multigenerational financial systems. 5. Share Jolley’s personal setback‑to‑success story To reinforce that anyone can grow wealth with the right principles. KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Rich vs. Wealthy Being rich = high income, often tied to active labor (e.g., athlete contracts). Being wealthy = passive income, ownership, generational sustainability. A rich football player earns millions; the team owner earns billions and doesn’t have to “run up and down the field.” 2. The Five Money Mindsets Jolley explains five financial mindsets: One‑day mindset – living day to day. 30‑day mindset – fixed incomes/check-to-check living. One‑year mindset – annual thinking (raises, annual income). Decade mindset – typical for entertainers/athletes with multi‑year contracts. Generational mindset (Wealth Mindset) – building wealth to last multiple generations. Jolley’s goal: move people up just one level at a time. 3. Five Types of Wealth Jolley breaks wealth into five categories: Financial Wealth Health Wealth (“A sick person has one dream; a healthy person has a thousand.” – Les Brown) Relationship Wealth Reputational Wealth (Brand) Intellectual Capital Wealth (What you know and can charge for) 4. Discipline Is the Key Wealth requires: Living below your means Investing the difference Consistency Avoiding arrogance and ignorance 5. Pride Is an Enemy of Wealth Pride leads people to overspend to keep up appearances.Jolley argues that pride “kills wealth” and must be replaced with planning and humility. 6. The Three Legs of Wealth To build sustainable wealth, you need: Income Investment (letting money work for you) Insurance (life, health, car, disability, long-term care) 7. Multiple Streams of Income Jolley urges everyone to build at least two streams of income from: Stocks Bonds Real estate Crypto Collectibles Jewelry Art Content creation 8. Overcoming Setbacks Jolley details his own journey from unemployed nightclub singer to globally recognized motivational speaker.He reinforces that a setback is a setup for a comeback—the core message of his earlier bestselling book. 9. It’s Never Too Late to Start He cites examples of: A secretary who retired with $8M by investing small amounts over time Invested $12,000 at age 65 and grew it to $890,000 by age 72 NOTABLE QUOTES FROM THE INTERVIEW On Time & Opportunity “I have only just a minute… but it’s up to me to use it.” On Mindset “Wealth starts in your mind.” On Rich vs. Wealthy “Regular folks work for their money. Wealthy people make their money work for them.” On Pride “My pride was killing my wealth.” On Growth & Learning “If you’re willing to learn, no one can stop you.” [On Setbacks “A setback is a setup for your greater comeback.” On Starting Late “When is the best time to plant a tree? Eighty years ago. The second-best time? Today.” #SHMS #STRAW #BESTSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello to you listening in Bywong, Australia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories With Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.I remember taking part in a 2-week Outward Bound mountaineering trip high in the Canadian Rockies with 5 other women. In pairs we climbed up and then rappelled down the rock face of a near vertical mountain wall. The guides were far above us, out of sight, having anchored the ropes. With fear in her voice my climbing partner froze partway up her ascent and cried out: “I can't find anything to hold on to.” Time passed. From far above us a voice replied, “Grab it with both hands...” It worked! She trusted the guides, their advice and herself sufficient to climb all the way to the top and descend the rock face. I can still see her triumphant smile when her feet touched rocky soil again.  Question: What if Life grabbed you with both hands and offered you an unexpected opportunity? Would you trust what Life was offering you? How would you know? What would motivate you to find out and take it?    You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Why do some recruiters command premium fees while others compete on speed and price? It's not talent or experience. It's whether they've packaged their service as a product. Andrea Hoffer learned this lesson the hard way. Before launching her consulting business, Andrea spent 10 years running a Massage Envy Spa franchise. She led a team of more than 30 employees. Her therapeutic staff stayed. Her front-desk hires didn't. Turnover was constant. She hired fast, hoped for the best, watched people struggle in a sales-driven role, then repeated the cycle. Eventually, she stopped and asked herself a simple question: “I've been trained better than this.” That question changed everything. Andrea rebuilt her hiring approach from scratch and turned it into a branded, repeatable system she now calls the Dream Hire framework. It worked so well that other franchise owners began asking for help. Today, Andrea runs AHA Talent Consulting, where she helps business owners build “hiring machines” that consistently attract the right people. She charges $10,000+ for setup and $3,000+ monthly subscriptions. No placement fees. She's not selling placements. She's selling a system. In this episode of The Resilient Recruiter, we break down how to package your recruitment process as a signature solution, why story-based discovery beats traditional intake calls, and where AI genuinely adds leverage without replacing human judgment. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why packaging your process matters more than speed or experience How the Dream Hire framework works and why Define is the most skipped (and costly) stage Why asking for stories reveals more than job descriptions ever will How to assess culture fit without relying on gut feel Where AI creates real value in hiring and where it doesn't How to use technology to scale insight without losing trust Episode Highlights [4:10] The hiring nightmare that forced Andrea to rebuild her entire process [7:38] Why changing the job posting language repelled the wrong candidates [9:31] The 90-minute group interview where candidates self-select out [12:24] Breaking down the Dream Hire framework: Define, Reach, Engage, Assess, Motivate [13:23] Why most recruiters skip defining and pay for it later [30:20] Assessing culture fit by asking for stories, not descriptions [36:08] The CAR technique for behavioral interviewing [39:58] Where AI creates the most value in hiring [41:02] Using AI chatbots to screen minimum qualifications [52:20] How Andrea uses AI to extend reach without extending hours Guest Bio Andrea Hoffer is the founder of AHA Talent Consulting and creator of the Dream Hire framework. She helps business owners attract, hire, and retain the right people through structured hiring systems and disciplined use of AI. Before consulting, Andrea spent 10 years as the owner and operator of a Massage Envy Spa franchise, where she led a 30+ person team and experienced firsthand the cost of hiring without structure. Today, she works primarily with multi-unit franchisees and small business owners who want predictable hiring outcomes without constant churn. If you're ready to stop competing on speed and price and start owning your process, your positioning, and your outcomes, this episode is a must-listen.

What has God called you to steward? In our first message of the year, join Pastor Matt and Matt Rutter for a conversation on working well.

What is it about a new beginning that makes us feel more motivated, more hopeful, and more ready to change?Behavioral scientists call it The Fresh Start Effect — the idea that temporal landmarks create psychological separation from our past selves and give us permission to begin again.In this episode, we explore three fascinating examples: why people are far more likely to run their first marathon at ages ending in nine, why searches for “gym” and “diet” spike everyMonday morning, and why birthdays trigger major goal resets.The leadership takeaway is powerful: momentum isn't just about discipline, it's about timing and framing. Great leaders know how to intentionally create “January moments” throughout the year.— Learn To Lead is brought to you by Abilitie, a leading provider of experiential learning.

Staying motivated throughout the year to exercise can be challenging. There are many things in life that can easily sideline you in your efforts like a busy schedule, illness or just not feeling up for it everyday. These things are all normal and yet somehow, you know inside that you should choose to exercise when possible. Luckily there are a few tips on how to set goals that motivate you to exercise that will actually work. In This Episode You Will Learn: 1). How the first of the year is a typical time to reflect on what you'd like to accomplish in the new year but in reality, these tips can be used year round. 2). Some of Meredith's personal experiences coaching others and her feelings when she saw her clients setting goals and staying excited about getting back into exercise. 3). Why setting small attainable goals is always better than setting larger goals. 4). How allowing yourself to celebrate your small wins makes a big difference in keeping you motivated throughout the year. 5). Why it's important to understand that adjusting your goals as you go to is normal and shouldn't be looked at as failure. /// We hope the suggestions in this episode are helpful to you if you are having trouble staying motivated to exercise. This is common and happens to everyone who tries to stay active. Knowing that there are helpful ways to keep your motivation alive is important. This will help you continue to embrace an active lifestyle now and into your later years. Team MeredithSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Hello to you listening in Keenesburg, Colorado!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.  If you followed my New Year's Day Polar Bear Dive story published in Episode 774 and Episode 776 it might have sounded all too easy: show up, scream, run, dive in, go home.I'm here to tell you that I'm a dyed-in-the-wool introverted kinda gal. I do not do well in settings where I have to show up alone, don't know anybody, have to make small talk, and may end up looking the fool.  The Polar Bear Dive was a real challenge for me. Not the part where I dove into the 43 Fahrenheit degree water of Puget Sound but showing up. I could have stayed in bed, stayed at home, walked onto the beach and turned back, stayed on the beach but hung out in the background watching the others. You know what I'm talking about. And, no one would have known. I could have lied about what I did or didn't do.But that's not how I live anymore. Practical Tip:  Here's what I've learned: the courage isn't about getting to the Finish Line; the courage is agreeing that you will start. And once you start it's all Finish Line from there on out! Guaranteed!You're invited: “Come for the stories - stay for the magic!” Speaking of magic, I hope you'll subscribe, follow, share a 5-star rating and nice review on your social media or podcast channel of choice, and join us next time!

Hello to you listening in Shah Alam, Malaysia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.The beginning of a New Year can feel daunting. All those plans to kick start, days to fill, resolutions to keep, and more to do! There's no shame in admitting feeling a wee bit wobbly-legged about going forward in the face of wide open frontiers.  What to do? Gain some courage by reversing your Bucket List. Instead of a list of what is yet to be done, what about a list of what you've accomplished from the littlest things that you felt made a difference to the biggest things you never thought you would achieve. You might begin by asking yourself:What made me proud?What have I learned?How did I transform my thinking about strangers to compassion and kindness?Who revealed the meaning of true love to me?Where did I find the hope and resilience to face whatever came my way?When did I feel most content or fulfilled?What would I do all over again just for the joy of it?What did I long for as a child?  What have I created or, at least, not destroyed?Who have I lifted up?How have I defined my life?  What dreams came true? And, which was I happy to leave by the wayside?  What or whom did I fight for and why?When did I take time to play?  In my experience the Reverse Bucket List invites us to pay attention to what we've done, won, gained, lost, learned and kept on living no matter what. It's proof that over and over again we have stepped outside our comfort zone to strive for something to do, someone to love, and something to hope for! Give it a go. Reverse your Bucket List and shine a light on you. You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

How different is the newest generation in the workforce, really? While stereotypes abound — some of them unfair — it's important to understand what the young adults of Gen Z have in common and how they differ from Millennials, Gen X and Boomers. Tim Elmore is a leadership coach and author who says that this generation in particular craves connection with their colleagues, meaningful work, and assurances that they're seen as people not commodities. He explains how organizational leaders can adapt to the needs of these workers while still maintaining high standards, providing feedback, and building grit and resilience. Elmore wrote the book "The Future Begins with Z: Nine Strategies to Lead Generation Z as They Disrupt the Workplace."

What if the real problem on your team isn't “people problems,” but the problems your people carry? We sit down with Matt Granados—founder of Life Pulse, author of Motivate the Unmotivated and The Intentional Week—to rethink leadership from the ground up. Matt makes a clear, compelling case for aiming at optimal performance: high output at a sustainable pace compared to yourself. No burnout badge. No hustle theater. Just systems that help humans do their best work without losing themselves.We break down a simple weekly cadence that top teams use to spot issues before they explode. Three questions—What are you focused on? What are you grateful for? What are you working toward?—surface trends, context, and capacity. Matt explains why leaders should listen for patterns over one-off answers, and how kindness (truth with care) beats niceness (comfort without growth). You'll hear the four levels of performance, the pitfalls of managing like a babysitter, and the practical steps to equip rather than enable.• the claim that people don't have people problems, people have problems• what equipping looks like versus enabling• three weekly questions that reveal trends fast• the difference between high and optimal performance• why kindness beats niceness for real growth• using structure and rhythm to prevent burnout• Eagle U's role in early systems thinking• the Take Part Foundation's focus on research, resources, storytelling• daily disciplines to abide and lead with integrityMatt also shares the heart behind the Take Part Foundation, co-founded with his wife Maria after their daughter Natalie was diagnosed with an ultra-rare genetic condition. Their mission—fund research, provide resources like genetic testing, and tell stories—shows what hope looks like in action. It's a masterclass in leading through adversity: build structure, choose obedience over opportunism, and serve people with courage and clarity.If you lead teams, coach leaders, or care about culture, you'll leave with a playbook to boost output without sacrificing well-being. Try the three questions for four weeks and watch the signal emerge. Then act with curiosity, not judgment. If this conversation moved you, share it with a leader who needs it, subscribe for more thoughtful interviews, and leave a review so we can reach more uncommon leaders.Connect with Matt Granados: ➡️ LinkedIn (primary): https://www.linkedin.com/in/matt87granados/➡️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@lifepulseinc7163➡️ Website: http://www.lifepulseinc.com/uncommonleaderThanks for listening in to the Uncommon Leader Podcast.

Hello to you listening in Suffolk, Virginia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more for an important story) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Each one of us - if we're determined - finds a way to compost the regrets, poor decisions, failures, shames and blames that are part and parcel of living life into something almost beyond description: personal transformation. My long time friend, podcasting colleague, disabled military vet, and avid hiker, Keith McNally, is a man finding his path to transformation.His goal? Thru-hiking the Appalachian Trail beginning on March 29, 2026, crossing 14 states on the East Coast and finishing 2,197 miles 5 months later. Some of the challenges include constant rough terrain with difficult footing, a series of steep grades, climbs and descents, as well as river crossings balanced on logs, extreme weather, insects, and rock scrambles using hands for climbing. The elevation profile of the AT over its length is akin to summiting Mount Everest from sea level and back approximately 16 times. So yes, physical fitness is a must to take on the AT; but it is mental fortitude and the ability to adapt to unforseen challenges that is key to finishing the hike.Keith's journey will be a test of perseverance, a tribute to the beauty of the natural world, and an opportunity for personal growth. Even more importantly, Keith is setting the groundwork for a non-profit foundation to help military veterans find their own Trails to Transformation. This first hike is just the beginning.  But here's something else. Keith is not walking alone. He has also been steadfastly training an indefatigable Aussie cattle dog he named Ashley after rescuing her from a shelter. Click HERE to watch a short video entitled:  Introduction to Ashley - Trail Partner and Training CompanionAs you can imagine, an expedition like this one does not come cheap. I know money is dear. And, here I am asking you to please reach deep into your pocket to give what you are able to Keith & Ashley's GoFundMe project. On the GoFundMe site you'll find all the details as well as a punch list of expenses so you can see where your contributions will go.    Click HERE to access Keith's GoFundMe, add what you can, and invite others to be part of the mission. I did!  If you are curious about keeping up with Keith's training, stories, photos and more, click HERE to access his  overwhelmingly popular newsletter published on Tuesdays on LinkedIn [Keith J.

Hello to you listening in Jakarta, Indonesia!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds (and a bit more) for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.As the old ones say, “If we are not grateful for what we have in this present moment, what makes us think we will be happy with more?”  Maybe it's true and maybe it isn't but long ago and far away there lived a man in a small country village. He had everything he had ever asked for: friends, livelihood, wife, family - and yet and yet something was stirring in him: Looking around he asked himself, Is this all there is? Perhaps I am meant for something more, something better. Perhaps I should go and seek my happiness outside the village.One summer morning he left his home, carefully closed the garden gate behind him and walked away. He walked for miles and miles until he could no longer see where he had been. Night fell and he found himself deep in a dark forest. Having no other shelter he took off his shoes, spread his coat on the ground, and fell asleep against the trunk of a tree for he was very tired.Watching him sleep his angel shook her head at the folly of his adventure. But what could she do? She could turn his shoes around facing them back in the direction from which he came. And so she did.When the man awoke he pulled on his coat, put his feet into his shoes and began to walk. After many miles of walking the man began to see familiar fields, a few farmhouses, a village - all looking very much like what he had left; but how could that be? People in the village market greeted him as if he was familiar to them; but how could that be? Arriving at a cottage with a garden gate he was startled to be greeted by children and a woman as if he were their long lost father and husband; but how could that be? They welcomed him inside, took off his shoes, sat him at a table very much like one he knew, fed him food that tasted like home; but how could that be?To this very day the man lives with that family in that home in that village and wonders, “If this isn't happiness, what is?”  As the old ones say, “If we are not grateful for what we have in this present moment, what makes us think we will be happy with more?”  You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Send us a textIn this episode of the Made4More Podcast, we continue our breakdown of Endure by Cameron Hanes, focusing on the first three chapters of the “Prey” section: 1. Life is Suffering 2. Pushing Above Average 3. Diving Into a Deep Hole We explore how adversity can shape us without defining us, why measurables matter when it comes to personal growth, and how confidence is built through consistent effort—not comfort.This conversation challenges listeners to eliminate excuses, examine their routines, and stop living in fear-based “what ifs.” Instead, we ask the better question: What if it works? If you're ready to raise the bar, push past average, and build a life you won't look back on with regret, this episode is for you.

Maybe you're using an old play book that used to work but no longer does. Maybe your attitude could use a reboot.Deep down, we all know it - don't we? We have a hunch what's gone missing, a risk we need to take, a habit we need to break. It's like a desire to take up daily walking for all the right reasons. There's not much to it; only the decision to move our bodies and the wisdom to accept the difference between our will and our won't.Question: What's the risk you've been avoiding? What's the risk you're willing to take? And what might happen next? You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

What if motivation isn't something people are born with, but something that can be influenced, shaped, and sustained? In this episode, Kevin is joined by Matt Granados to challenge common leadership myths about motivation. Matt reveals a powerful formula for creating sustainable motivation through personal connection, structured systems, and self-awareness. He explores the critical distinction between love-based and fear-based leadership, explains how three simple weekly questions can transform team engagement, and helps leaders identify individual motivation catalysts, including freedom, acknowledgment, connectivity, and support. Matt's Story: Matt Granados is a two-time #1 international bestselling author. His latest book is Motivate the Unmotivated: A Proven System for Sustainable Motivation. He is the founder and CEO of Life Pulse Inc., where he helps organizations fix people problems by solving process problems, once and for all. His Life Pulse Methodology equips leaders and teams to achieve Optimal Performance—the highest sustainable output aligned with human potential. Matt first validated this approach by transforming a Craigslist-hired crew into a $40 million sales team. Since then, companies like Google, Twitter, and the U.S. Air Force have used his system to reduce burnout, increase retention, and engineer culture https://www.lifepulseinc.com/  www.lifepulseinc.com/podgift  https://www.linkedin.com/company/life-pulse-inc/  https://www.facebook.com/LifePulseInc  https://www.instagram.com/lifepulseinc/  https://www.lifepulseinc.com/podcast  This Episode is brought to you by...

Welcome to Part 1 of a two-part Special Episode introducing my new release, “MA PETITE FLEUR STRING QUARTET”. This work transforms my jazz ballad into a lush classical string quartet piece. I'm pleased to say that the work has been praised by all of the Classical Music Stars listed below. In Part 1 today we're going to listen to this new work. In Part 2 tomorrow we're going to introduce the incredible musicians who brought this piece to life.But first, here's the back story.Last year, following my podcast interview with Michael Abene, Grammy award winning big band arranger, I asked him if he would create a new arrangement of my jazz ballad, “The Gift”. Michael agreed and transformed my song into an extraordinary big band Samba. My band mates and I were the rhythm section on the recording. Spotify link.I then got the idea to take another of my jazz ballads and have it arranged into a classical string quartet piece. I was introduced to David Shenton, a genius arranger, who took my song, “Ma Petite Fleur” - my little flower - and arranged it as a classical string quartet piece inspired by my song. He then brought in four world class musicians to record the work.With this as the back story, please listen now to “MA PETITE FLEUR STRING QUARTET”.CLICK HERE FOR THE OFFICIAL VIDEOCLICK HERE FOR ALL LINKS--------------------------------------------------------Praised by:Steven Beck - Concert PianistJeffrey Biegel - Concert PianistMarina Chiche - Classical ViolinistJoAnn Falletta - Conductor, Buffalo PhilharmonicYolanda Kondonassis - Concert HarpistShawn Okpebholo - ComposerAmit Peled - Concert CellistLucas Richman - Conductor, Bangor SymphonyLlewellyn Sanchez-Werner - Concert PianistJason Vieaux - Classical Guitarist—-----------------------------------------------------------The Follow Your Dream Podcast:Top 1% of all podcasts with Listeners in 200 countries!Click here for All Episodes Click here for Guest List Click here for Guest Groupings Click here for Guest TestimonialsClick here to Subscribe Click here to receive our Email UpdatesClick here to Rate and Review the podcastClick here for Robert's “Dream Inspire” App—----------------------------------------ROBERT'S NEW “DREAM INSPIRE” APPYour personalized Coach to Motivate, Pursue and Succeed at Your DreamCLICK HERE—----------------------------------------ROBERT'S LATEST SINGLE:“MI CACHIMBER” is Robert's latest single.

Hello to you listening in McHenry, Illinois!Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with 60 Seconds for Motivate Your Monday and your host, Diane Wyzga.Maybe it's true and maybe it isn't but once there was a corrupt politician in the 1920's named John A. McCarthy; but he was known as Fishhooks McCarthy. He lived and worked on the Lower East Side of New York City. Being a devout man every morning he stopped at a little Catholic Church, St. James Church on Olive Street,  to pray. Same prayer every day: “O Lord, give me health and strength. We'll steal the rest.”  Fishhooks sounds like one of those politicians you shouldn't trust; but people remembered him as a Robin Hood who used graft and corruption to redistribute money to his unemployed and working class poor constituents.Let me be very clear! I am not advocating for theft, bribery, corruption, immorality, stepping outside the law, and all the rest. We have more than enough of that with the Trump/MAGA Regime. What I am saying is that in these historic times we have once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to examine our core values, our moral code, and ask ourselves: what do I stand for and what won't I stand for?Question: While you have health and strength what can you do to be of good use?   You're always welcome: "Come for the stories - Stay for the magic!"

Hans Lagerweij is the author of The Why Whisperer: How to Motivate and Align Teams That Get Your Strategy Done. In this episode, Hans shares that he wrote the book after watching great strategies fail during execution. He saw a gap between understanding the importance of purpose and actually implementing it. Hans explains that you can't shout your way to purpose. Whispering requires getting close to your team and having two-way conversations. He emphasizes that leaders need to listen to personal motivations and ideas from team members. Hans presents three options when there's misalignment between personal and organizational purpose: change your personal why, take leadership to influence the organizational why, or leave. Listen to this episode to learn how to move your organization's purpose from theory into practice. You can find episode 487 on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube | Hans Lagerweij on Three Ways to Motivate Teams and Align Strategy https://bit.ly/TLP-487 Key Takeaways [03:06] Hans reveals his first job at 15 was in a DIY store managing screws and tools, sparking his commercial curiosity. [05:04] Hans explains the "Why Whisperer" addresses the gap between Simon Sinek's purpose theory and practical implementation. [06:25] Hans attributes strategy failure to lack of discipline in communicating and aligning teams, not discipline itself. [07:06] Hans explains whispering means close two-way conversations with teams rather than top-down broadcasting. [10:37] Hans outlines three options for misaligned purposes: change your why, influence the organization's why, or leave. [15:35] Hans talks about clarifying the why and how that helps simplify decision making for leaders. [19:18] Hans recommends asking team members what makes them most proud to understand what drives them. [20:53] Hans introduces the "reverse elevator pitch" where leaders articulate direction, importance, and excitement in three minutes. [22:30] Hans explains "purpose" is universal across cultures but requires different communication approaches depending on cultural norms. [27:47] Hans challenges leaders to move "purpose" from wall posters into the organization's heartbeat. [28:50] And remember…"The louder the world becomes, the more radical it is to whisper truths. Not to be heard by all — but to be remembered by someone" - Lawrence Nault Quotable Quotes "You can't shout your way to purpose." " Whispering means you need to be so close with your team to have actually a conversation, a two way conversation and you know, to listen to ideas and personal motivations from your team. So yeah, it's really whispering to me is, you know, about getting people to own the why, not just follow it. So it is seriously going from a beautiful slogan on the wall to something that is, you know, in the hearts and minds. " "A clear purpose really helps, you know, to reduce options. Choices from a million to just a few right ones." "A clear purpose absolutely will save your time, will, you know, set your directions. As I said, it's your North Star." "Purpose is absolutely universal language, but, you know, you have to speak it in different accents." "In the end, the most powerful strategy is the one that your team believes in and that they're willing to fight for." "If there is a conflict between the two, if there's disconnect, it will always feel like misalignment. It will always feel like, you know, you're not at the place in that organization." "If you can synchronize individual and organizational purposes, you know, or wise, you know, then you create an authentic connection that really drives results." "In every culture, in every country, you know, people want to feel a sense of purpose. I think it's simply a fundamental human need."
