Podcasts about Reaching

Reaching and responding is the core interaction that helps couples move out of stuck, negative cycles and back toward connection. A reach is an imperfect, vulnerable sharing from the heart, and a response is a soft, attuned way of catching that vulnerability with empathy and curiosity. When couples practice this repeatedly—especially during repair after conflict—they create safety, deepen understanding, and strengthen secure attachment over time.

For most of us, being humble is easier in theory than it is in practice. Reaching out in Christian Love and kindness often means being a peacekeeper and letting go of the need to be right or to win an argument. God wants us to walk with humility at work, on social media, and at home. When we're frustrated with someone across the table or online, considering the words and deeds of others through the lens of Jesus' sacrificial love for us can bring clarity. Our scripture for today is Ephesians 4:1–3, which says, “As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.”Let's pray. Lord, we live in a world that praises getting the last word. Being the loudest voice, or the winner of every argument is not your will for us. Bless us with the spirit of humility and guide us in being peacekeepers online and in person. In Jesus' name, amen. Change your shirt, and you can change the world! Save 15% Off your entire purchase of faith-based apparel + gifts at Kerusso.com with code KDD15.

Michele Scherr and I explored what happens when the structure, identity and purpose that once defined your life suddenly disappear. Michele speaks openly about her transition out of military service and the deep emotional toll that followed. The isolation, the loss of meaning and the quiet despair that can sit beneath the surface even when support appears to be all around you.She is a former nurse, military veteran and precision health specialist who understands transition from the inside out. She shares what it felt like to lose not one identity, but two, and how that unravelling led her into a period of depression, suicidal ideation and a profound questioning of her value and place in the world. This conversation goes where many avoid, into the spaces people rarely speak about once the uniform comes off or a chapter closes.We talk about why identity and purpose sit at the core of mental health during major life transitions, why the first year after leaving structured environments can be the most dangerous and how the noise of modern life makes it harder to hear what we need. Michele explains how listening to the body, understanding individual design and creating the right environment can become powerful anchors when everything else feels uncertain.If you're in a season of change or supporting someone who is, this episode offers clarity, compassion and a reminder that purpose can be rebuilt, one step at a time.Inside this podcast:- Why identity loss can quietly unravel mental health- How major life transitions impact purpose and belonging- Why the body holds clues to how you are designed to thrive- The role of environment in healing and rebuilding identity- Why asking for help is often the hardest but most important stepConnect with Michele Scherr:LinkedIn  → linkedin.com/in/michele-scherrWebsite → personalisedhealthandwellbeingsolutions.com.auConnect with Steve:Instagram → https://bit.ly/3KARQhR LinkedIn  → https://bit.ly/48sw8Vj Episode Highlights00:00:00 - Struggling to get out of bed and the silent weight of transition00:02:00 - S*icidal ideation and feeling isolated despite support00:04:00 - Why this conversation matters beyond the military00:07:30 - The growing noise of modern life and constant stimulation00:11:00 - Leaving nursing and military service at the same time00:13:00 - Losing identity, value and a sense of contribution00:17:30 - Precision health and understanding individual design00:21:30 - Environment as a key factor in mental health and healing00:26:00 - Identity and purpose as core challenges in transition00:30:00 - Why defence struggles to prepare people for civilian life00:35:00 - Creating a foundation before adding support programs00:40:00 - Personalisation, sustainability, and long term wellbeing00:46:00 - Gender differences in identity, purpose, and expectations00:52:00 - Giving yourself grace during transition00:54:00 - Finding what works for you and cultivating community00:57:00 - Identity evolution through different life stages01:01:00 - Supporting loved ones through transition with communication01:05:00 - Boundaries, behaviour, and healthy ways to release emotion01:10:00 - Reaching out for help and breaking internal barriers01:13:00 - Why people struggle to respond when someone is honest01:15:00 - Where to find Michele and closing reflectionsABOUT THE PODCAST SHOWThe Noise of Life is a podcast that shares real stories, raw truths, and remarkable growth.

The 1970s were drenched in high strangeness. Then it stopped. We called it the triumph of reason. What if skepticism was a banishing ritual we stopped performing? What if our nostalgic obsession with 70s paranormal aesthetics was a summoning we didn't know we were conducting? The weird is back.

i6 Group is connecting the fragmented aviation fuel ecosystem-airlines, fuel suppliers, and service providers-through a real-time digital platform that eliminates paper-based processes at over 260 airports worldwide. After launching with British Airways at Heathrow in 2015 and recently closing their Series B with German PE firm Itrium, i6 is proving that even heavily regulated, risk-averse industries can achieve step-function operational improvements through software. In this episode of BUILDERS, Alex Mattos, CEO and Managing Director of i6 Group, breaks down how they navigated decade-long enterprise sales cycles, leveraged strategic customers as Series A investors, and are now building toward profitability to maximize exit optionality. Topics Discussed: The surprising analog nature of aviation fuel operations despite advanced aircraft technology i6's pivot from defense fuel system testing to commercial aviation digitization The multi-party fuel ecosystem: airlines, suppliers, service providers, and logistics chains Strategic approach to landing British Airways and Virgin Atlantic as launch customers Fundamental differences between European fuel optimization vs. US supply chain management models Multi-stakeholder enterprise sales involving fuel teams, flight ops, pilot unions, and CFOs Strategic Series A with customer-investors: British Airways, JetBlue, Shell, and World Fuel Services Series B transition from strategic to PE backing focused on scaling operations and go-to-market Network effects driving compounding value as airport coverage expands Path to self-sustainability and exit strategy considerations GTM Lessons For B2B Founders: Target brand DNA, not just budget, for early enterprise customers: i6 deliberately approached Virgin Atlantic because of Richard Branson's reputation for "being entrepreneurial, taking a risk, doing something different." This wasn't naive brand worship—it was strategic targeting based on organizational risk tolerance. When selling complex infrastructure to enterprises pre-product-market fit, a prospect's innovation track record matters more than their budget size. Map your early pipeline based on cultural willingness to partner with startups, not just technical fit. Invest in non-paying reference customers as currency for tier-one deals: Virgin Atlantic became i6's first operational deployment without payment. This wasn't charity—it was strategic capital allocation. The working reference at Virgin directly unlocked British Airways: "we turned up, demonstrated what we were doing...we've done this trial with Virgin and here's the results, and it went really well." For founders selling to conservative enterprises, one live deployment at a credible brand is worth more than a dozen pitch decks. Budget 6-12 months of runway for strategic pilots that generate proof points, not revenue. Create forcing functions with specific follow-up commitments: When British Airways said "if you're still here in six months, come back," most founders would hear soft rejection. Alex heard a calendar commitment and returned "to the day" with results. This precision signaling—we take your requirements seriously enough to track them to the day—separates serious vendors from tire-kickers. When enterprises set conditional bars, treat them as binding contracts and demonstrate execution discipline through exact follow-through. Position for market disruption by maintaining warm enterprise relationships: i6 benefited when an incumbent competitor liquidated, creating urgent procurement needs at British Airways. But luck favors the prepared—they had already established credibility through their Virgin deployment. Maintain enterprise relationships even when deals seem stalled. In concentrated B2B markets, competitive exits, budget releases, and trigger events happen regularly. Your position in the consideration set when disruption hits determines whether you capture the opportunity. Engineer word-of-mouth in concentrated industries through excellence, not marketing: Four months after Heathrow deployment, Dubai airport approached i6 unsolicited: "we've heard great things." In the aviation fuel community—which Alex describes as "surprisingly small"—exceptional execution travels faster than any outbound motion. This changes GTM strategy: in concentrated industries, over-invest in customer success and operational excellence at early deployments rather than spreading thin across many accounts. Your first customers are your sales team. Segment GTM by operational model, not just geography or company size: i6 discovered European airlines optimize for fuel efficiency and real-time decisions, while US airlines (controlling their own supply networks since the late 1980s) prioritize supply chain visibility: "how much fuel did we put in the plane, how much have we had delivered, how much have we got left." These aren't feature preferences—they're fundamentally different jobs-to-be-done driven by market structure. Don't assume global enterprises have unified needs. Segment by operational model and regulatory environment, then customize messaging and roadmap accordingly. Stage investor expertise to match company evolution, not just valuation milestones: Series A brought strategic investors who were actual users (British Airways, JetBlue, Shell, World Fuel Services) for product validation and network access. Series B brought PE firm Itrium for "scaling the business...building and growing our sales and revenue teams." This wasn't opportunistic—it was deliberate staging of capital sources to match capability gaps. Don't optimize fundraising purely on valuation or dilution. Map your next 18-month bottleneck (product validation vs. operational scaling vs. market expansion) and raise from investors who've solved that specific problem. Build for profitability to control your exit timing and terms: Alex's goal is avoiding Series C entirely: "we build and establish a fully self-sustaining business...the business becomes fully sustainable in the next couple of years." This isn't conservatism—it's strategic optionality. Reaching profitability eliminates the forced march toward subsequent rounds, letting you choose between IPO or M&A based on market conditions rather than cash position. For infrastructure plays with long implementation cycles, factor sustainability into your growth model early, even if it moderates topline growth rates. // Sponsors: Front Lines — We help B2B tech companies launch, manage, and grow podcasts that drive demand, awareness, and thought leadership. www.FrontLines.io The Global Talent Co. — We help tech startups find, vet, hire, pay, and retain amazing marketing talent that costs 50-70% less than the US & Europe. www.GlobalTalent.co // Don't Miss: New Podcast Series — How I Hire Senior GTM leaders share the tactical hiring frameworks they use to build winning revenue teams.

Educators often get a front row seat to see their students realizing their potential. Those lightbulb moments when a new concept clicks are what a lot of educators say keep them going. Intervention Specialist Elena North and Occupational Therapist Maddy Schnabel recently got a front row seat to see their student, Cy, write his name for the first time - something that was possible because of the custom assistive device they designed and 3-D printed to enable him to use crayons, markers, and pens, just like his peers. In this episode, Maddy and Elena share their ongoing journey to overcome challenges to help unlock Cy's potential. And they share their dreams for Cy's future: Whatever he dreams for himself.SEE CY IN ACTION | Watch this short social media video to see Cy using his new assistive device for yourself.EXPLORE THE POSSIBILITIES | Educators who are considering whether 3-D printed devices can help their students are welcome to pick Maddy and Elena's brains about what they've learned so far in the design and printing process.

Have a question, comment, idea or suggestion? Send us a text.The 2026 midterms present a fundamentally different electoral landscape for Republicans. In this episode, pollster David Kanevsky breaks down exclusive post-election survey data from Virginia and New Jersey that reveals how campaigns are now dealing with two distinct electorates: highly engaged partisans who consume news across every platform, and politically disengaged voters who stream without ads and intentionally avoid political content.The conversation reveals a media landscape where more voters now get their TV content through streaming than traditional broadcast or cable, where news has been "unbundled" from weather and sports, and where platforms like TikTok and LinkedIn now reach more voters than X/Twitter. With nearly half of votes being cast before Election Day and the most persuadable voters being the least engaged with traditional political media, campaigns must fundamentally rethink their approach.Visit our website: CampaignTrend.com

Reaching 100 episodes is more than a milestone. It's a moment to step back and recognize what's been built together. In this special compilation episode of Machine Shop Mastery, I reflect on the most powerful ideas, lessons, and human stories that emerged from the first 99 conversations with shop owners and manufacturing leaders across the industry. When this podcast started, I thought we were chasing a simple question: what makes great shops great? What became clear over time is that we weren't really talking about machines or parts at all. We were talking about responsibility, sacrifice, leadership, and the human soul of the American economy. Over these episodes, we've heard from owners who sold their homes to save their businesses, leaders who risked everything to protect their teams, and families who carried legacies forward through loss and adversity. This episode brings together those lessons into a set of foundational pillars that show up again and again in successful shops. The power of process. The importance of culture and core values. The strategic advantage of planning. And the discipline required to build a business that doesn't rely entirely on its owner. These aren't theories. They're lived experiences shared by people who have felt the weight of ownership firsthand. You'll also hear moments of generosity, resilience, and community that rarely make it into business playbooks. Stories of competitors helping competitors, leaders choosing people over profit, and shop owners who understand that a rising tide truly lifts all boats. Together, these stories form something bigger than a highlight reel. They represent a body of collective wisdom. This episode isn't a finish line. It's a marker.

Samantha Rux from OSF HealthCare joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to talk about surgical services at OSF Saint Luke and healthy living after 50-years-old by Dr. Travis Swink. Former Kewanee mayor Steve Looney has retired after 24 years of service at OSF St. Luke and the broader OSF ministry. Looney most recently held the role of Western Region Director of Environmental Services. OSF staff gathered last week to celebrate his years of leadership and service. In related OSF St. Luke news, surgical offerings have expanded with Dr. Matt Heber joining Dr. Atwell, providing four days of surgery coverage for the community. Routine procedures like colonoscopies can now be done locally, reducing travel for patients. More resources and interviews can be found at newsroom.osfhealthcare.org. Reaching 50 often sparks both reflection and renewed focus on health. Dr. Travis Swink, a family medicine provider with OSF HealthCare, cautions that risks for chronic conditions climb after this milestone, particularly if self-care has slipped. He emphasizes regular physical activity, recommending brisk walking for just 15 minutes twice a day—no marathon required. Strength training with free weights or bands is advised for maintaining muscle without straining joints. Dr. Swink also urges better awareness of nutritional intake, highlighting a move away from carbs toward proteins and non-starchy vegetables. Moderation and consistency, not deprivation, set the tone for a healthier decade ahead.

Just hours after doubling down on his claim that the US should "get Greenland", Donald Trump made an abrupt U-turn on the tariffs he had threatened to slap on European nations that opposed his bid.  Announcing the news on his Truth Social platform, the US president said he and NATO chief Mark Rutte had reached a "framework of a future deal" on Greenland and that in light of that, he would not be imposing the 10 percent import duties that were slated to go into effect on February 1. 

Online reviews are one of the most powerful and misunderstood factors in chiropractic marketing. In this episode of the Rocket Chiro Podcast, Jerry Kennedy breaks down how many reviews chiropractors actually need to compete in local search, and why reviews matter far beyond Google Maps rankings. If you want more new patients without relying on ads, gimmicks, or sales-heavy marketing, this episode gives you clear benchmarks and practical guidance you can apply immediately. What You'll Learn in This Episode Why online reviews impact Google Maps, AI search, and patient trust How reviews influence both visibility and patient decision-making Why reviews matter even for referral-based chiropractic practices The minimum star rating chiropractors should aim to maintain Why negative reviews are not the end of the world How to calculate review benchmarks based on your local market The four review numbers every chiropractor should understand Why review expectations keep rising every year How to make reviews part of your practice culture The 4 Review Benchmarks Explained Jerry outlines four key numbers chiropractors should track: Entry Point About 20% of the median review count in your area. Below this level, reviews may significantly limit your visibility. Fighting Chance (Median) The middle review count among chiropractors in your market. Reaching this gives you a realistic opportunity to compete. Dominance Level Roughly 3.5 times the median. Practices at this level often have a strong advantage in local search. High Water Mark The highest review count in your area. Not a requirement, but useful context when evaluating competition. How to Get More Reviews (Without Being Awkward) A simple framework that actually works: Provide great care and communicate well Make reviews a normal part of your practice Ask in person, not just digitally Make it easy with links or QR codes Be consistent with a repeatable plan Most chiropractors who struggle with reviews are missing multiple steps.

Howard Stern admits he was the worst DJ imaginable when he started. But his obsessive will to get better transformed him into a legend. In this episode, Dan and Pam explore how this principle applies to every high performer, from athletes to salespeople. You'll learn about the two components that determine whether you reach your potential—drive and exposure to elite standards—and why surrounding yourself with people who operate at a higher level is non-negotiable for growth. Dan also shares the details of his brutal early sales journey, and the uncomfortable practice that became the foundation of his transformation.  This conversation gets real about what real improvement actually costs, and why most people aren't willing to pay that price. Listen if you're ready to change how you think about growth.

The Vinland sagas were right about Norse voyages to North America. The Amazon legends were confirmed by graves full of warrior women in the Russian steppes. Once again, the old stories proved more accurate than scholars assumed. But these same traditions preserve another pattern we have yet to take seriously. Our ancestors walked this earth for a very long time before history began. They were not idle. They were learning. And some of what they learned, they managed to pass down, encoded in legends we are only now beginning to take seriously.​​Follow Viking Superpowers here! --- ​https://www.youtube.com/@vikingsuperpowers and get the book here ​https://www.amazon.com/Viking-Superpowers-Suppressed-Technology-Spacefaring/dp/1764091817/ref=sr_1_1​​Follow Salsido Paranormal here! -- www.salsidoparanormal.com and get the book here ​https://www.amazon.com/Salsido-Paranormal-Experiences-James/dp/B0DD3SFF61/ref=sr_1_1​​If you are having a mental health crisis and need immediate help, please go to​ ​​​https://troubledminds.org/help/ and call somebody right now.

If oral traditions can preserve truth across millennia, we have to ask: what about the stories we still dismiss? Every culture on earth tells of beings who share this world with us but exist by different rules. The Irish Sídhe, the Icelandic Huldufólk, the countless traditions of little people and hidden folk that span every continent. We've been taught these are primitive fantasies. But we said the same thing about Troy. We said the same thing about the giant squid. At what point do we start wondering what else the old stories got right?​​Follow Viking Superpowers here! --- ​https://www.youtube.com/@vikingsuperpowers and get the book here ​https://www.amazon.com/Viking-Superpowers-Suppressed-Technology-Spacefaring/dp/1764091817/ref=sr_1_1​​If you are having a mental health crisis and need immediate help, please go to​ ​​​https://troubledminds.org/help/ and call somebody right now.

The reality of goal setting is that we have to work strategically. Listen to my latest nutrition culture update!

According to YouGov, one of the top resolutions for 2026 is saving more money. While Jesse has issues with the concept of "saving" money as he has discussed in previous podcasts, the intention is still clear -- people want to get to a more stable financial position, which (for most) means more cash in the bank and less debt. Jesse also points out that consumer debt continues to hit all time highs, which leads to his approach to the question: should I build my savings or pay off debt?   Jesse urges folks to consider, why do they feel the need to reach for consumer debt in the first place? Reaching for debt regularly, especially pernicious forms of debt like credit cards and buy now, pay later programs, indicates that you aren't aware and in alignment with your true expenses -- the larger and less frequent expenses that you know will happen, but aren't regular monthly bills like rent or utilities. Auto maintenance is a classic example of true expenses -- you know you'll need oil changes, transmission fluid changes, new tires, etc. eventually, but it's not a regular monthly expense.   The trap many people fall into is throwing everything they have into debt payments, only to have a true expense pop up and no cash to pay for it. So they bring out the credit card and fall back into the same cycle that got them into debt in the first place. If you turn your attention away from paying off debt for a bit and instead focus on setting money aside for these true expenses, like tires, then you can reduce your need to rely on consumer debt to cover these. Just setting aside $50 or $100 a month toward these expenses can make you so much more financially resilient, that you no longer need debt and can now begin to pay off debt from a place of stability.   All of a sudden, you are planning and thinking about money like a YNABer!     Watch The Jesse Mecham Show on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@jessemechamshow   Got a question for Jesse?

Episode 100 of The Bandwich Tapes marks a meaningful milestone, not just in numbers, but in intention.What began as a simple idea, having thoughtful conversations with musicians I admire, has grown into a space for deep listening, reflection, and curiosity. Reaching one hundred episodes felt like a moment to pause, look back, and express gratitude to everyone who has chosen to spend time with this show.For this milestone episode, I'm honored to share a conversation with Dame Evelyn Glennie.Dame Evelyn Glennie is one of the most influential and inspiring musicians of our time. A world-renowned percussionist, composer, and advocate for listening, her work has reshaped how many of us understand sound, awareness, and musical perception. Her artistry extends far beyond performance; it invites us to reconsider what it truly means to listen.In this conversation, we explore Evelyn's approach to listening as a full-body experience, the philosophy that guides her musical life, and the curiosity that continues to drive her work. It's a discussion about sound, silence, intention, and the responsibility that comes with being deeply attentive to music, to others, and to the world around us.Sharing this interview as episode one hundred is a privilege, and one I'll carry with me for a long time.Thank you for listening, for supporting the show, and for being part of this journey.Episode 100 drops January 19, 2026.

Premise In this podcast episode, we host India's biggest and best Executive Coach Shital Kakkar Mehra. She has trained more than 1000 CxO's and more than 40000 leaders about how to develop their executive presence. We talk about how the we lead and what is expected from us shifts as we continue to grow in our careers and what makes us successful early in our career is no longer enough when we become managers (managing people) and it changes again, when we start leading managers and agains shifts when we start leading functions and organisations. Apart from all the technical skills and the ability to make decisions and lead their team, we all also need what is called "Executive Presence". Let's figure out what it is and how can one go about developing it within ourselves. Lessons from the Conversation 1. The Invisible Ceiling In the high-stakes world of executive leadership, the ascent to the top is frequently compared to climbing Mount Everest. Reaching the "Base Camp" of your career requires physical stamina, technical aptitude, and raw motivation. However, as any seasoned strategist will tell you, the skills required to reach Base Camp are fundamentally insufficient for the final push to the Summit. To reach the peak—the C-suite—leaders must pivot from reliance on technical expertise to the mastery of "Executive Presence." This is the intangible "X-Factor" that distinguishes a high-performing manager from a true leader. Without it, even the most brilliant minds hit an invisible ceiling, possessing the data but lacking the gravitas to influence the board. 2. The "Hygiene Factor" Fallacy At senior levels, technical brilliance and intellectual capability are no longer competitive advantages; they are "hygiene factors." Much like basic cleanliness in a hospital, these traits are expected baseline requirements. They provide the foundation, but "presence" provides the leverage. To diagnose where a leader's impact is stalling, we utilize the POISE formula. This framework treats leadership as an iceberg: while 90% of your value (technicality) lies beneath the surface, the 10% that is visible (physicality) is what dictates whether others are willing to dive deeper. P – Physical Presence: The visual semiotics of leadership. Packaging and body language serve as the primary point of visibility, signaling readiness and authority. O – Online Presence: Your digital equity. This encompasses how you project authority on screen, in digital communications, and across professional social networks. I – Influencer Skills: The bedrock of executive maturity. This involves the strategic ability to say "no," the discernment to listen, and the emotional intelligence to navigate complex stakeholder landscapes. S – Stage Presence: The "General's Skill." Historically, battles were won not just by army size, but by a leader's ability to communicate a vision that galvanized the ranks. E – Engagement Presence: Relationship capital. The intentional building of networks within and outside the organization to ensure visibility, which remains the primary driver of opportunity. 3. The 33% Impact Tax: Why Your "Camera Off" Policy is Killing Your Career In the post-pandemic landscape, leadership impact is governed by the Triple V Formula: Visual: How you look and the environment you project. Verbal: The specific vocabulary and syntax you employ. Vocal: The modulation and delivery of your voice. If you choose to keep your camera off during virtual engagements, you are effectively paying a 33% tax on your potential impact. In a remote environment, your face is your most mobile and expressive tool for building trust. Showing up "camera ready" is a signal of professional respect and interpersonal equity. "I'm not Fox Studios. I'm not calling you to launch your Hollywood career… just switch on the camera so that we can build a good working relationship... when you look like you're ready for business, it says, 'Of course, I respect you and I'm serious about my work.'" Shital Kakkar Mehra 4. The 30-Second Rule: Why Preparation Trumps "Winging It" There is a persistent myth in corporate circles that executive presence is impromptu and that either you have it or you dont. In reality, the most seamless presence is the result of rigorous preparation - Pre-meeting Research. A leader's success in a high-stakes meeting is determined in the first 30 seconds. If you establish context and confidence immediately, the remaining 29 minutes and 30 seconds flow with ease. To achieve this, adopt the "Newspaper Headline" approach: speak in punchy, high-impact bullet points first, then deep-dive into the details only when you have secured the audience's interest. True "impromptu" excellence is a performance. Much like professional comedy, which relies on hours of perfecting timing and scripts, executive presence is the result of anticipating tangents and preparing intelligent questions before the first word is spoken. 5. Death by PPT vs. The Performance of Leadership Traditional "Death by PPT" is a symptom of a leader who has failed to transition from a Subject Matter Expert to a Performer. Slides should be reserved for visual evidence—graphs, photos, or videos—never as a teleprompter. Once you take the stage, you are a performer charged with managing the energy of the room. The most critical, yet often neglected, tool in this performance is voice modulation: Volume: Use loudness for emphasis, but remember that a whisper can often draw an audience in more effectively. Pitch: Varying your high and low notes prevents the "monotone fatigue" that causes audiences to disengage. Tone: In both professional and personal spheres, tone is the primary driver of conflict. Just as a large percentage of marital disputes are caused by how something was said rather than what was said, a leader's tone can either build a bridge or incite a defensive response. 6. The Evolution of the Alpha: From Autocrat to Cultural Steward The "Alpha" leader of the early 2000s—the autocratic command-and-control figure—is obsolete. Modern leadership requires a significant mindset shift, particularly for leaders in their 40s and 50s who were trained in a different era. Today's workplace often spans five distinct generations, each with varying expectations regarding mental health, empathy, and mutual respect. The role of the leader has evolved from being the primary source of value to being the "Guard" or Cultural Steward or a Facilitator for the flow of information and decision making. Your job is to ensure the team is cared for and the environment is psychologically safe so that they can deliver the value. Empathy is no longer a "soft skill"; it is a core requirement for retention and performance in a multi-generational landscape. 7. The "Silent" Skill: Mastering the Power of the Pause The ultimate hallmark of executive maturity is the ability to stop talking. It is a profound linguistic coincidence that the words "Listen" and "Silent" are composed of the exact same letters. The "Power of the Pause" allows for perspective. It gives your audience time to process your "newspaper headlines" and gives you the space to buy time and breathe. This intentionality is what transforms a person into a brand. Every leader must recognize that they are the CEO of their own personal brand, and every brand requires strategic investment, promotion, and consistent visibility to remain relevant. Reflection and the pause lead to intentionality. Are you currently content remaining at the Base Camp, or are you ready to begin the specialized training required for the Summit? In Conclusion In conclusion, I would say that every stage of the leadership ladder (individual contributor, managing people, managing managers, managing functions and managing organisations) each require new skills to be learnt, in addition to what we have already mastered at the existing level. One that that becomes even more critical is our ability to show up and be seen, heard and trusted by the teams that we lead. Building a strong executive presence goes a long way in achieving this.

The act of sitting down to play a tabletop game is far more than a simple hobby because it is actually a sophisticated ritual of consensual reality. When a group of players agrees that a dragon exists or a dungeon awaits, they are engaging in a form of collective manifestation that blurs the line between fiction and physics. This episode of Troubled Minds explores how the adventuring party acts as an egregore, which is a shared intelligence capable of hacking the very fabric of our perceived world. We dive deep into the mechanics of the dice as quantum randomizers and discuss whether we are all just players in a larger campaign run by an unseen architect.​​If you are having a mental health crisis and need immediate help, please go to​ ​​​https://troubledminds.org/help/ and call somebody right now.

CYCLONE KOJI STRIKES QUEENSLAND AS BUSHFIRES RAGE ELSEWHERE Colleague Jeremy Zakis. Jeremy Zakis reports that Cyclone Koji, described as a "monster" system with winds reaching 90 to 100 miles per hour, struck the Queensland coast near Townsville. Fortunately, the cyclone's epicenter made landfall south of the major population centers, resulting in damage primarily restricted to uprooted trees and localized flooding rather than widespread structural destruction. As the system moved inland, it depowered into an "ex-cyclone" bringing heavy rain to a region defined by volcanic rock and sharp cliffs rather than sandy beaches. Simultaneously, other parts of the continent, specifically Victoria and Western Australia, are battling extreme heat and bushfires ignited by lightning storms striking dry undergrowth. In these fire zones, firefighters have been observed rescuing exhausted wildlife, including providing water to dehydrated kangaroos and transporting koalas to rangers for care.
