Podcast appearances and mentions of Nick Shaw

Outgoing Meta wearables chief Dan Reed joins the Leaders Sport Business podcast this week. Having announced his departure from the technology giant earlier this month, Reed reflects on 11 years at the helm of various departments at Facebook and then Meta. Hired out of his role as President of the NBA's G League, Reed initially joined Facebook to head up its nascent sports activity as Director of Global Sports Partnerships in 2014. Building out a crack team - which included the likes of Peter Hutton, Joyee Biswas, Ronan Joyce, Jordan Gruber, and Nick Shaw among many others - Reed oversaw the development of Facebook Live as a viable sports streaming platform, 'experimenting' with hundreds of millions of dollars of rights as the company tested different strategic directions in sport. As VP of Global Sports and Media Partnerships, Reed developed the growing content creator ecosystem inside Facebook's portfolio of apps, and tailored new monetization models for all manner of sports-focused entities and individuals. And as COO of Reality Labs, essentially Meta's wearables division, Reed drove a multi-billion dollar business in AI, AR, VR and Mixed Reality products, pioneering what many believe will be the next iteration of mass-adopted connected devices through the Meta Rayban partnership.

Episode 262: Lost on the Slopes - Lessons Beyond the Mountain: Interview Nick ShawWelcome to the Love Your Story podcast. Today's show takes us into the story of the death of a 9-year-old boy after a ski accident at Big Sky in Montana. The tragedy, as you would expect, brought his parent's to their knees, on a path none of us want to walk. But Nick Shaw - today's guest - sought meaning as the life-line to hold to as he moved forward, and part of his healing process involved putting it down in writing, sharing the lessons he learned from his son. Stay tuned as he shares his story and as we discuss his book: My Teacher, My Son: Lessons on Life, Loss and Love.Nick Shaw, William's father, an accomplished executive coach, and the author of My Teacher, My Son, joins us today to share his story and the things he's learned along the way.Nick, welcome to the show.I wanted to read a quick review of your book:Kelly McGonigal, PhD, Research Psychologist at Stanford University writes:“It seems impossible that a book about unimaginable grief could offer so much hope, yet that is the gift of My Teach, My Son. With breath taking honesty, Nick Shaw shows how love, joy and continued connection co-exist with loss, change and challenge. The courage of Nick's self-reflection empowers each of us to find a way forward. A truly heart empowering read.”Very high praise.Tune into the audio program to hear answers to the following discussion questions:I know your story - I finished your book last week - but of course none of the listeners know who you are yet, so can we please start with your story? Tell us about your family and about that day.In dealing with this devastating loss, you chose to look for lessons. What have been the greatest lessons you have learned?In your book you say:“I took a six-month leave of absence from work to bewith Susie and Kai and to try to make sense of everything. This pause gaveme the time and space to reflect and ask, “Is this the way I want to go onliving my life?” While the answer is important, I found that taking the timeto ask the question is more important.” TELL ME ABOUT THIS. I LOVE THE QUESTION.As your healing progresses and a year later you and Susan have your third son, you say, In another section of the book,“ I had to be able to hold both my despair and my happiness at the same time. I had to accept that I could be happy and sad at the same time. I could revel in the delight of holding mynewborn son and at the same time be devastated by the loss of my oldest son. I could delight in sharing new and exciting experiences with Kai and at the same time be shattered by the fact that I will never be able to share those same experiences with William. I had to stop letting one feeling diminish the other; I made room for both feelings to coexist.I feel like this is a healthy mindset that allows room for the complexity of the emotional journey. Talk to us about this idea... When we are going through something traumatic, how do we not let the emotion and trauma just take over? How do we maintain our ability to choose mindset?To connect with Nick or get a copy of his book:www.meetnickshaw.comLinkedIn: Nick Shaw

“You have to be okay with being both happy and sad at the same time, and I don't think many people are used to doing that.” –Nick ShawHaving a child die is the unimaginable fear of any parent. How do you go on after losing a child? What can you learn and bring forward? My friend Nick Shaw wrote a book about the lessons he's learned about slowing down, reflecting, and being yourself, after his son, William died. This is a heavier conversation than many we have here, but worth it.Nick had dabbled in journaling and meditation before his son died, and in the aftermath, as he was trying to make meaning of something so senseless, he used both tools. He found the need, as an introvert, to go deeply inside during this experience.Before William died, Nick was on the productivity treadmill, moving from point A to point B. When William died, time stopped. Nick took a leave of absence and his busy, hectic, highly structured days became amorphous. He didn't really know what to do with all the time, but slowly he learned how important the pause is, the time to reflect.We talk about: How loss and grief changed his experience of time and earning to live in the moment instead of always being focused on end results The lost art of reflectionGetting stuck in our own narrative of who we are and what we should be doingBeing yourself and creating an environment where others can be themselvesLearning to have a new relationship with somebody you've lost and to be happy and sad at the same timeA family ritual around remembering loved ones who have diedABOUT NICK Nick Shaw is an accomplished executive coach, author, and speaker known for his profound insights into personal transformation, self-discovery, and authentic leadership.Through much reflection and soul-searching, Nick has realized a need to help others find ways of living more intentional and meaningful lives.
