We discuss the importance of teaching drums not as a means to showcase what students can'tt do, but rather to identify and address the barriers preventing them from achieving their drumming goals. We throw a tad bit of shade at the rare instance when teachers try to establish dominance by showcasing their skills, and instead advocate for a more empowering approach that focuses on student needs and growth. Basically, don't be a jerk. LOL. We hope you enjoy this episode!Mike & EddySupport the show

Are your top performers actually holding back your organization's growth? Today on Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick talks with Eduardo Briceño, global keynote speaker, CEO of Growth.How, and author of "The Performance Paradox". Eduardo is one of the leading voices on growth mindset in organizations, building on 16+ years of work with Carol Dweck as co-founder of Mindset Works and two TEDx talks that have each passed 4 million views. Together, they unpack how leaders and companies can move beyond one-off inspiration and build true learning cultures that deliver sustained performance. Eduardo explains his core framework: the Learning Zone and the Performance Zone. Most organizations live almost entirely in performance mode—chasing metrics, staying "on," and delivering results. He shows why that approach quietly caps growth, and how deliberately creating Learning Zone time is the unlock for innovation, resilience, and long-term excellence. You'll hear how he designs keynotes and workshops like a master teacher, not a showman. Eduardo starts with clear learning objectives, then engineers experiences that shift how leaders think, behave, and make decisions. It's not about delivering a great "show"; it's about making sure people leave seeing their work differently and ready to act. Eduardo and Peter also explore what it really takes to build a growth-mindset culture at scale. They talk about partnering with organizations over time, embedding the ideas from The Performance Paradox into leadership programs, talent systems, and everyday language. Eduardo shares why well-intentioned "growth" initiatives often backfire—and how to avoid the hidden traps that send mixed signals to your people. Finally, they look at impact. Eduardo discusses how he went from frameworks to a major Penguin Random House book, how he gathered more than 100 real-world stories to bring his ideas to life, and why he's now focused on working longitudinally with clients instead of just doing single events. For CEOs and senior leaders, this conversation is a playbook for turning your organization into a place where people are both learning faster and performing better. Three Key Takeaways: • Always-on performance quietly caps growth; organizations need deliberate time and space for the Learning Zone, not just the Performance Zone. • "Growth mindset" only works when it's operationalized—through concrete systems, habits, and experiences that teach people how to learn and improve, not just that they can. • The biggest impact comes from embedding these ideas into leadership programs, talent systems, and culture over time—not from one-off keynotes or events. If this episode reshaped how you think about performance and the Learning Zone, your next stop should be our conversation with Phil Geldart on Unlocking Human Potential. Both episodes tackle the same core challenge—how to move beyond "always on" performance and build a culture where learning, experimentation, and behavior change are baked into the way work gets done. Eduardo gives you the strategic lens and language (Learning vs. Performance Zone, growth mindset in action); Phil dives into how to design experiential learning that actually sticks and changes what people do on Monday morning. Listen to both and you'll walk away with a playbook that connects big ideas about learning culture to concrete tools for driving performance across your organization.

What happens when two female lawyers from different countries realize they're fighting the same battles? In this powerful conversation, Erin sits down with Odette Ansell—a Canadian litigator and host of the Non-Billable Hours podcast—to talk about the universal struggles female lawyers face: loneliness, identity crisis, the pressure to "have it all," and the desperate need for community. They discuss why it's so hard to separate your identity from your job, what to do when you feel stuck, and why vulnerability might be the bravest thing you do as a lawyer. If you've ever felt like you're the only one crumbling while everyone else looks like they're crushing it—this episode is your reminder that you're not alone.About Odette AnsellOdette Ansell is a Canadian litigator and the host of Non-Billable Hours, a podcast dedicated to honest conversations about life in and beyond the law. With a passion for connecting with lawyers across every practice area, she creates space for candid discussions about the joys, pressures, and personal passions that shape legal professionals. Odette is driven by a desire to spotlight what truly lights lawyers up outside their work—from creative pursuits to family life to unexpected hobbies. Through her thoughtful interviews, she explores the common challenges many lawyers experience but rarely voice. Her work aims to build community, normalize vulnerability, and remind lawyers that their identities extend far beyond their billable targets.Key Topics CoveredWhy Odette became a lawyer (and the personality test that said she'd be terrible at litigation)The universal struggles female lawyers face—regardless of country or practice areaWhy lawyers desperately need people who "get it" without needing contextThe loneliness epidemic in the legal profession (especially for women)How to separate your identity from your job when being a lawyer IS your personalityThe seasons of life and why "having it all" doesn't mean having it all at onceWhy women lawyers feel guilty for wanting something outside the lawThe bad advice that made Odette delete her food blog in law schoolHow to find community when you work from home and feel isolatedThe power of saying your goals out loud (even if you don't know how to achieve them)Why vulnerability is so hard for lawyers (and why we desperately need it)The retreats that made Erin realize: "These women get me at a visceral level"Connect with Odette AnsellPodcast: Non-Billable Hours (YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts)Instagram: @nonbillablehourspodcastWant to connect with Odette about building community, navigating identity outside the law, or just chat about life as a lawyer?

La performance est un sujet central pour toutes les organisations, en particulier lorsque se pose la question de son articulation avec l'impact et le bien commun. Stéphanie Pinot est membre du directoire du groupe RAISE et directrice de la stratégie, du développement et de la communication. Elle décrit ici comment son entreprise a structuré un modèle d'investissement qui relie performance, utilité sociale et engagement durable.Cet échange revient d'abord sur la manière dont RAISE s'est construit autour d'une conviction forte : la finance peut devenir un levier d'action au service de projets utiles. Le partage de la valeur, inscrit dès l'origine, est devenu un élément structurant du fonctionnement des équipes. La performance financière alimente directement un fonds de dotation interne qui soutient des entrepreneurs et des associations, ce qui modifie la manière de concevoir le métier d'investisseur et le rôle de chacun.Stéphanie explique ensuite comment l'entreprise a fait évoluer sa gouvernance pour tenir une ligne qui concilie croissance, impact et pérennité. Le passage à un directoire et un conseil de surveillance a formalisé un leadership plus collégial, cohérent avec l'histoire du groupe. Ce fonctionnement permet d'intégrer les dimensions humaines, stratégiques et opérationnelles dans les décisions clés et de préserver dans le temps l'identité de RAISE. Ces éléments éclairent la façon dont une entreprise peut inscrire la performance dans un cadre plus large, en cohérence avec une mission.Elle détaille également l'accompagnement proposé aux entreprises du portefeuille qui souhaitent engager une démarche d'entreprise à mission. Les dirigeants identifient d'abord leurs valeurs et l'intention qu'ils veulent porter, puis associent leurs équipes pour structurer des engagements mesurables. Cette dynamique rejoint des enjeux très présents pour les managers et les DRH : donner une direction lisible, créer les conditions de l'engagement des collaborateurs, renforcer la pratique de leadership et inscrire les décisions dans un temps long. La performance y prend une dimension relationnelle et collective, essentielle pour construire la confiance et soutenir les transformations.Enfin, l'épisode montre comment la finance engagée peut contribuer à des évolutions très concrètes dans l'entreprise. Les mécanismes d'investissement, la mobilisation du collectif, la place accordée à l'innovation d'impact ou encore l'ancrage dans la mission apportent des repères utiles pour celles et ceux qui pilotent la transformation du management. Les DRH comme les managers y trouveront des exemples tangibles pour relier stratégie, pratiques quotidiennes et cohérence organisationnelle.

In this powerful masterclass, three industry-leading experts show you why authenticity isn't a “soft skill” — it's the engine of trust, leadership, and negotiation.

Connect with me here! Send me a text message! In this heartfelt episode, Angela speaks directly to the woman who feels like she's falling behind — behind in her routines, her goals, her spiritual walk, her motherhood journey, or her personal growth. This time of year often magnifies the areas where we feel inadequate or “not enough,” but God never uses our pace or productivity to measure our worth. He sees your heart, not your performance. You are loved, chosen, and valued right where you are.We dive deep into the truth that feeling behind is not the same as being behind — and it's never how God sees you. Through Scripture and grace-filled encouragement, you'll learn how to stop comparing your life to others, embrace the season God has you in, and trust that He is faithfully completing the good work He started in you. You'll gain a fresh perspective on what spiritual progress looks like and be reminded that God works in rhythms, not deadlines.If you've been carrying pressure, guilt, or self-doubt, this episode is a warm invitation to exhale. You'll walk away with renewed confidence in who you are, Whose you are, and the beautiful truth that you are right on time in God's hands. Tune in and let your heart be reminded: you are not behind — you are becoming exactly who God created you to be.

Durante Verzola, resident choreographer for Miami City Ballet School, breaks down their Summer Choreographic Workshop, a specialized program that simulates professional dancer life for students as young as 14. Unlike traditional summer intensives, this program focuses on preparing dancers for the quick turnaround and varied repertory demands of company life. Durante explains why they created a separate choreographic track, how company artistic staff are involved, and what types of mentors and choreographers work with participants. The conversation covers the balance between new and existing works, whether students learn to choreograph themselves, and what the final performance looks like. Durante discusses why younger dancers benefit from this experience, how often participants transition into Miami City Ballet's year-round program, and what common growth areas he observes. He also addresses why specialized programs like this are growing in popularity and what sets Miami City Ballet's approach apart from similar workshops. If you're considering programs that go beyond traditional technique training, this episode explains what makes the choreographic workshop format valuable for pre-professional dancers.

In this episode, Agnelo Fernandes, CEO of Cote Hospitality, shares how he thinks about leading performance in a challenging operating environment. As demand flattens and costs continue to rise, Agnelo explains why labor is unlikely to return to "normal" anytime soon, how simplicity and adaptability have become competitive advantages, and why strong brands are built in moments. He introduces his “52 Games a Year” mindset, reframing performance as a season of wins and losses that requires constant adjustment rather than rigid plans. This episode offers hospitality leaders a practical, people-first perspective on driving sustainable performance without losing what makes hospitality work.

Back in 2021, we recorded our second ever wrap-up episode for our second play series: Twelfth Night. We both watched two versions of Twelfth Night: Trevor Nunn's 1996 film and She's the Man, then we also each watched an additional version. Kourtney watched the The Globe's 2012 production starring Mark Rylance, and Elyse watched National Theatre's 2017 production featuring Tamsin Greig.  But then, tragedy struck when Kourtney went to edit the episode! The audio files for the majority of the episode were corrupted and could not be used. The only usable audio was the portion of our conversation about She's the Man. So, we released what we could as our "Twelfth Night: Wrap Up" episode.  Since that day, we've dreamed about going back and revisiting the three productions that were lost to technological issues. Today, we are so excited to revisit those productions and share our 2025 thoughts with you.  Shakespeare Anyone? is created and produced by Kourtney Smith and Elyse Sharp.

When you look after your gut, you're really looking after your whole body.” – Harvey Fortis Key Message Gut health isn't about cutting things out – it's about adding the right things in.
