Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this seventeenth study of the series, "Many Parts, One Body,” we study in 1st Corinthians 12:12-31 as the Apostle Paul seeks to help his Corinthian friends understand and live in the importance of both the unity of participation of the local church and the supernatural gifts/graces God gives us to grow us towards each other and into a mature representation of Jesus.

In today's episode, Ryan answers questions about how to apply Stoicism to the real problems life throws at us. How do you stay Stoic when the obstacle is emotional, personal, and human? What does “doing the work” look like when you're exhausted, burned out, or discouraged? How do you know what's in your control, what you can influence, and where your energy is best spent? Plus more.

In this episode Tej Gill and I dive deep into the intricate world of entrepreneurship, specifically focusing on the challenges faced by 7-figure business owners. This lively and insightful discussion provides listeners with a realistic view of the hurdles entrepreneurs face when building, scaling, and selling businesses.  My impassioned rant, something I rarely indulge in, is a highlight of this episode, reflecting the pressures and frustrations that often accompany entrepreneurial ventures. Throughout the episode, we discuss common issues such as burnout, talent acquisition, and the necessity of building a machine-like business structure for success. The conversation tackles the frequent underestimation of building a sustainable and profitable business and highlights the importance of systematic processes in preventing chaos.  Listeners gain valuable insights into distinguishing between stars and superstars in their team, the significance of reducing revenue volatility, and exploring the ultimate value of a business exit.  These key themes are intertwined with practical advice and real-world examples that make the episode not just informative, but also a motivational resource for entrepreneurs seeking to refine their strategies.

What does cognitive science actually tell us about how adults learn at work — and why are most corporate learning programs still built on myths?  In this episode of the Balancing Act podcast, Andy speaks with Dr. Tessa Forshaw — cognitive scientist, co-founder of the Next Level Lab at Harvard University, and co-author of Innovation-ish: How Anyone Can Create Breakthrough Solutions to Real Problems in the Real World (Wiley, 2025).  Tessa and Andy explore why learning takes effort (and why frictionless tools often don't teach), what “innovation hesitation” is and how leaders can disarm it, why the apprenticeship model still matters, and what's coming out of Harvard's new Workforce Learning and Innovation Initiative.  Tune in to episode 244 to hear Tessa's story and learn how to design learning that actually changes the brain — and how to lower the bar to innovation so your team can actually take the first step.  Dr. Forshaw is offering a discount for our listeners to Harvard Graduate School of Education's The Future of Workforce Learning and Innovation Certificate Program.

 Many people assume emotional security means never feeling jealous, arguing or questioning where they stand. But couples in emotionally secure relationships can navigate discomfort without losing trust in each other.1. In relationships, small problems are blown up to immense problems… For what is that good?We want to solve our problems and don't want to enlarge them in the future… Just solve them in the here and now. Strategy go in baby steps… If you want to go from A to B in the night you can see only 50m, and you have to go 400km… Should you panic, or you ask what is If I am going wrongOr I have an accidentIf I am not on timeIf I have not enough petrol, even you have… This leads to nothing.It is always enough to solve the problems that you have right now. We go forward, stubbornly forward regardless how the situation looks projected in the future.We don't know the future and to assume the worst case scenery makes life awful. Here are five things good relationships do regularly.1. They always resolve conflicts.Secure couples argue, sometimes passionately. In fact, research shows that they're quite skilled at it. The difference is that they don't sweep problems under the rug or storm off indefinitely.Instead, they face discomfort head-on, acknowledging hurt feelings, admitting faults and tolerating the awkwardness of disagreement.Most importantly, they always adjust their behavior afterward. For a conflict to truly end, it must leave both partners feeling heard and respected.2. They give each other freedomEmotionally secure couples enjoy nights out separately, maintain friendships outside the relationship, and pursue personal goals without guilt. They know trust grows when closeness and autonomy coexist.Constant proximity is not a measure of intimacy. Secure partners understand that individuality fuels attraction and energy, making time together richer and more rewarding.3. They don't narrate each other's feelingsIn insecure relationships, partners often assume they know what the other is thinking: “You're distant because you don't care,” or, “You're mad because I didn't take your advice.” This can escalate misunderstandings.Secure couples strive to resist this impulse: When one of them seems off, the other asks and then listens. They ask, they listen and they trust the answers.When you trust your partner will tell you what you need to know, you don't feel compelled to read between the lines.4. They make space for boredomNot every phase of a healthy relationship has to feel electric. Workweeks, errands, and responsibilities can make life feel repetitive. In insecure couples, this monotony can trigger panic or doubt about the “spark.”Emotionally secure couples, on the other hand, know not to panic when things sometimes feel monotonous. They see steadiness as a sign of safety, not stagnation, and recognize that love isn't meant to feel like a constant high.5. They don't outsource reassuranceEven secure people have moments of doubt, but they don't bombard each other with constant “Do you love me?” check-ins, nor do they withdraw in protest when reassurance isn't immediate. They rely on evidence from their actions.My Video:  Real Relationships have real problems https://youtu.be/utfbigq_9YwMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast5/Real-Relationships-have-real-problems.mp3

What separates a good idea from a scalable business? In this episode of So Ambitious, Black Ambition Prize founders D'Angelo Senat (AllPeep), Barbara Jacques (JACQ'S Skincare), and LaToya Stirrup (Kamzaleje) break down how they turned real-life problems into high-impact, fundable companies rooted in community, culture, and purpose. From building products that didn't exist for them to navigating access, capital, and the realities of entrepreneurship, these founders share what it actually takes to scale a business beyond the idea stage. This conversation goes deeper than startup advice. They also share how they go beyond the pitch stage and how founders are building companies that create lasting impact. It's about ownership, representation, and building solutions that serve real people. As host Felecia highlights: “What you build after the opportunity is what really defines you.” If you're a founder, entrepreneur, or innovator looking to secure funding, grow your business, and create meaningful impact, this episode is your blueprint. KEY POINTS - The best businesses don't start with ideas; they start with real problems - Lived experience is often the strongest foundation for scalable innovation - What you sell is surface, what you solve is what actually drives growth - Building for your community creates a deeper impact and stronger demand - Access to rooms, networks, and decision-makers is still a major barrier - Entrepreneurship requires sacrifice, resilience, and long-term vision - Winning funding is just the beginning; execution is what sustains growth - The most powerful businesses create both economic and cultural impact QUOTABLES  “This isn't a startup story. This is a growth story.” – D'Angelo Senat “There are still doors… where major conversations are happening that I would just love to be in.” – Barbara Jacques “We're not just building products. We're building something that didn't exist for us.” – LaToya Stirrup “If it doesn't solve a real problem, it's not going to last.”  – D'Angelo Senat “You have to keep going, even when it doesn't look like it's working yet.” – LaToya Stirrup RESOURCES Barbara Jacques IG | https://www.instagram.com/shopjacqs/  LaToya Stirrup | https://www.latoyastirrup.com/about-me  Kazmaleje IG | https://www.instagram.com/kazmaleje/  D'Angelo Senat IG | https://www.instagram.com/senatmade/  AllPeep IG | https://www.instagram.com/allpeephq/  Felecia Hatcher | https://www.feleciahatcher.com/  IG | https://www.instagram.com/feleciahatcher/  Black Ambition | https://www.blackambitionprize.com/  IG | https://www.instagram.com/blackambitionprize/  So Ambitious is produced by EPYC Media | https://www.epyc.co/

What if the biggest risk in your career isn't leaving corporate, but staying? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Heather Moore, Founder and CEO of Pet Centric Health. Heather takes us behind the scenes of what it really looks like to transition from corporate stability into entrepreneurship, including the mindset shifts, challenges, and unexpected growth that come with building a company from the ground up. This episode is a must-listen for high-achieving women who feel the pull toward something more and are ready to explore what's next in leadership, impact, and value creation.   What You Will Learn: How to recognize the internal and external signs that it's time to leave corporate. What mindset shifts are required to take the leap into entrepreneurship. How to evaluate risk in a way that empowers action instead of fear. What it really takes to build a startup from idea to execution. How to navigate the early stages of business with limited resources. What challenges founders face when scaling a business beyond startup phase. How to build a subscription-based business model that creates consistent value. What it means to stay nimble and evolve with market demand. How to balance confidence and vulnerability as a leader. What it takes to build a mission-driven company that serves multiple stakeholders.   FAQ: How do you know when it's time to leave your corporate job? You know it's time when you feel a strong pull toward solving a problem you can no longer ignore, combined with a sense that your current role no longer challenges or fulfills you. Often, a pivotal life event or internal shift clarifies that staying is the greater risk.   What are the biggest challenges when starting a business after corporate? The biggest challenges include navigating uncertainty, managing limited resources, making high-stakes decisions without a safety net, and shifting from structured environments to building systems from scratch.   What is a subscription-based business model and why does it work? A subscription-based model provides recurring revenue by offering ongoing value to customers. It works because it creates consistency, improves customer retention, and allows businesses to build long-term relationships. Connect with Heather MoorePetCentric Health Connect with Anjel B.

You're to have to call back. just, could not understand a word you were saying there. Well, Canada, all these people that were, and I always noticed, do you ever notice these people that are so against Donald Trump when they want to move? None of them ever moved to Mexico. Did you ever notice that? They don't move to Mexico. They always talk about going to Canada or Ellen DeGeneres. She went over to England. 01:02 But now I hear she's coming back. Rosie O'Donnell went over to Ireland. uh She was so miserable over there. She's looking at coming back. 01:13 Listen, if you are a Democrat and you are miserable in the United States, understand something. You're going to be miserable everywhere you go. I remember there was a Adam Sandler skit over on Saturday Night Live and he was talking about what an Italian, it was like one of those Italian tours, was like, 01:41 I'm going to tell you what these Italian tours will not do for you. They will not make you a better person. If you are miserable where you are, you're going to be just as miserable in Italy. It was a very, very funny, but that's it. It's not the country that's making them miserable. It's not Donald Trump that's making them miserable. They're just miserable. That's who they are. 02:08 So they're be just, and I haven't seen anybody that moved to Canada and went, we love it here, it's awesome. No, because it's not. Because Canada's got some real problems. Their economy is in the toilet. So they had a chance in Canada to sign a $40 billion deal with Japan for oil. $40 billion. 02:38 but they blew it. And I'll tell you how coming up in just a second. So where did Japan go for their oil? Well, they went to the Oval Office and President Trump has just signed a deal with Japan. It is a $56 billion energy deal with the United States, bypassing 03:02 Canada's oil and gas. 03:06 Completely by, we are now. 03:10 Japan's largest source for energy in a $56 billion deal. Now, you had old Mark Carney up in Canada. He blew that deal because he was talking about the low-risk oil and natural gas. are low-risk producers of oil. We are low-risk producers of natural gas. We're reliable. can produce. We're in jurisdictions where 03:39 what we produce will go to market uh... and we can deliver it uh... to market and that that is a contribution in the world which is lost in effect in the oil case fifteen percent potential we are no risk as far as carbon is concerned well that didn't get you that forty billion dollar deal with japan did so japan had originally gone to true dough for a deal they're looking at your dough ah 04:10 So Trudeau, not even making this up, he tried to talk them literally out of the deal. 04:23 Trudeau in Canada wanted them to look into alternative forms of energy. 04:32 Instead of getting their energy from Trudeau, from Canada, Trudeau said, hey, you guys ever think about windmills? You guys ever think about solar or anything like that? You guys ever think about that? So way to go, Canada. You just blew a $50 billion deal. We got a $50 billion deal. Charlie, some people aren't happy. 05:02 unless they're miserable. You're exactly right. 05:07 I used to teach a class in Sunday school where I would ask everybody in the class, I'd say, right, I'd say, don't want you to raise your hand. 05:20 But I want to know, and just answer me silently because I already know the answer, answer me silently who in here has a chemical addiction? 05:32 Who in here has a chemical addiction? 05:36 and you'd see them. You'd see them, they'd get nervous. 05:41 They started looking around, looking around, who in here ...

If value comes from solving problems… why do buyers struggle to explain the problems they actually have? In Episode 4 of the Buyer Decision Series, Mark Stiving and Rebecca Kalogeris explore why buyers often jump straight to solutions instead of clearly articulating their problems. But the real value conversation doesn't start with features or products — it starts with understanding the problem behind the purchase. Discover why the sellers who understand a buyer's problems best are the ones buyers trust most… and why that trust increases the confidence needed to say yes.   Why you have to check out today's podcast: Understand why value only exists when a real problem is being solved—and why no problem means no value. Learn why buyers often jump to solutions and features instead of articulating their real problems. See why the best sales conversations focus less on products and more on diagnosing the buyer's situation.   Catch Up on the #BuyerDecisionSeries: Episode 1: Buying Is a Prediction of the Future  Episode 2: Buyers Buy Futures, Not Features  Episode 3: What Buyers Actually Pay For   "If there's no problem, there's no value." — Mark Stiving   Topics Covered: 00:00 – The Question Most Buyers Never Stop to Ask.  Mark opens with a simple but powerful question: what problem are we actually trying to solve? The starting point behind value — and why most buyers skip it. 02:00 – The Rule That Explains Why Value Only Exists When Problems Exist. Mark introduces the second half of the Second Law of Value: value is the result of solving problems. If there's no meaningful problem, there's no reason to pay. 02:28 – The "Drill Aisle" Mistake Buyers Make. Why buyers walk into a store asking for a drill instead of understanding what they actually need — and how jumping straight to solutions leads to bad decisions. 05:12 – Why Feature-Focused Buyers Often Choose the Wrong Solution. From cars to CRM systems, buyers instinctively compare features instead of identifying the deeper problems they're trying to solve. 08:09 – The Question That Instantly Builds Buyer Trust. Why great sellers ask deeper questions about context and behavior — revealing problems the buyer hasn't fully articulated. 09:55 – The Confidence Equation Behind Every Buying Decision. Mark revisits the confidence framework — payoff, probability, and anticipated regret — and explains why understanding problems increases the probability a buyer believes your solution will work. 11:04 – The "Doctor Test" for Great Selling. Rebecca compares great sellers to doctors: when someone clearly diagnoses your problem, you immediately trust their solution. 12:48 – The Next Puzzle: Turning Problems Into Measurable Value. Mark previews the next episode: how companies can help buyers quantify value once the real problems are understood.   Key Takeaways: "Buyers typically are horrible at articulating their own problems."  — Mark Stiving "Nobody cares about your product. What they care about are the problems you can solve and the results they'll achieve."  — Mark Stiving "The better a salesperson is at understanding your problems, the more likely you are to believe that solution solves your problem."  — Mark Stiving "When someone can articulate your problem with nuance and detail, suddenly you believe they can solve it." — Mark Stiving "Confidence changes when someone demonstrates they truly understand your situation." — Rebecca Kalogeris   People / Concepts Mentioned: Theodore Levitt.

Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this seventh study of the series, “Judge & Jury,” we study in 1st Corinthians 6:1-8 as the Apostle Paul addresses the lawsuits that exist between those participating in the congregation in Corinth. Paul speaks plainly about how to consider approaching a dispute and maintaining our witness of Jesus in the midst of the justice systems of this world.

Most companies don't realize that  bad UX shows up in support ticket patterns before it shows up in their metrics.As more organizations lean into greater automation, a poorly designed UX results in slowdowns and user frustration, as support teams scramble to respond to a surge in support tickets.If you are in charge of enterprise systems or evaluating new IT installations, then this is the podcast for you.Today we are joined by the brilliant Tanya Donska.  Tanya  works with companies like Deutsche Telekom, IQVIA, and D.E. Shaw Group - fixing UX problems at enterprise scale where one bad flow impacts thousands of users and support costs alone can justify a redesign. She's a UK Global Talent visa recipient and Creative Director at DNSK WORK. In this episode of A Seat at The Table, Tanya will be discussing:The hidden cost of UX debt at enterprise scale - when "just fix it later" costs 6 months of engineering timeHow to make design decisions with 17 stakeholders without everything becoming beige (or taking 9 months)Why design systems fail at 90% of companies (and it's not lack of documentation)Wow, there's so much to unpack here.  So let's sit down with Tanya and find out what UX Band-Aids might be hiding at our organizations.---Connect with Tanya Donska:  Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/donska/Website: https://dnsk.work/Visit A Seat at The Table's website at https://seat.fm

Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this fourth study of the series, “The God Who Makes Things Grow,” we study in 1st Corinthians 3:1-23 as the Apostle Paul continues his address of the challenges present within the Corinthian congregation. Here, we understand God desires to grow both individuals following Jesus and congregations as his “temple,” a people for his presence in a place.

Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this third study of the series, “We Have the Mind of Christ,” we study in 1st Corinthians 2:1-16 as the Apostle Paul continues his address of the challenges present within the Corinthian congregation. Here, we understand the ministry of the Holy Spirit as enabling us to understand God and renew our minds for God's purposes in the world.

How often do you pause to examine whether growth is actually strengthening the business or simply stretching it thinner? Is your agency growing in size but shrinking in strength because of external pressures, or because your internal systems were never built to sustain real scale? In this episode of The Agency Blueprint podcast, I'm joined by Nick Avaria to discuss why so many agencies become less profitable as they grow. Nick is a serial agency entrepreneur who has scaled multiple agencies past seven and eight figures, buying and selling seven along the way. He has merged leadership teams and cultures and now helps agency owners escape burnout and build highly profitable, scalable businesses. Listen in to learn why agencies churn clients, not because of poor results, but because of poor service leadership. You will also learn how operational clarity directly shapes performance, accountability, and long-term scalability. Key Questions: [01:00] How could your agency grow its revenue year after year yet still see shrinking margins and increased chaos? [04:36] Are you defining “service” too narrowly, focusing on creative output instead of client leadership, communication, and insight? [19:50] Are you truly facing a lead-generation problem, or is a deeper systems issue creating bottlenecks that you're misdiagnosing? [27:34] Is your agency tracking the right amount of data, or have you crossed into the zone of information overload where metrics no longer drive behavior? What You'll Discover: [01:32] The three core levers that determine pricing power, client retention, and long-term profitability: brand, price, and service. [05:00] How exceptional performance can still result in client loss if communication and responsiveness fail. [06:13] The three tiers of insights (marketing, business, and industry) and why they are essential to client leadership. [09:25] The three pillars of service (education, experience, and expectation-setting) that shape a client's long-term loyalty. [12:24] The key dashboards agencies must maintain, including revenue forecasting, capacity management, and business development projections. [18:15] Why many agencies are data-averse, and how creative leaders can become more confident with metrics. [20:40] A clear ranking system for diagnosing agency issues: data first, people second, client lifetime value third. [22:21] The importance of shared language within teams, aligning expectations so performance becomes measurable and objective. [25:06] How to differentiate between employee performance issues and management failures caused by a lack of clear direction, tools, or training. [27:58] How data should be used to adjust behavior and decision-making, not to overwhelm teams with endless numbers. Connect with Nick: LinkedIn5-Hour Training8-Figure Agency Operations

Pastor Chris continues our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this second study of the series, “When Disagreement Becomes Disunity,” we study in 1st Corinthians 1:10-31 as the Apostle Paul begins his address of the challenges present within the Corinthian congregation. Here, we see how easily outside agendas can seek to disrupt our peace and unity and compromise our collective witness of the crucified and resurrected Jesus.

Pastor Chris commences our teaching series entitled “1st Corinthians: Practical Answers to Real Problems.” In this first study of the series, “Trouble with a Capital T,” we study in Acts 18 of Paul's initial visit to Corinth and the beginning of the church. We then study Paul's introduction of the letter in 1st Corinthians 1, where we learn that the church is the sanctified people of God called to holiness and that we, as followers of Jesus, have not quite yet arrived to becoming all that the Lord intends for us to be.

Ever heard a variable speed pump scream for a minute on a cold morning and wondered if the motor is toast? We dig into the real-world signs that separate normal quirks from costly failures, sharing field-tested ways to read noises, clouding, and pressure spikes without overreacting or replacing parts you don't need.We start with cold-start pump behavior and why grease viscosity makes a VS motor squeal briefly in chilly weather, then move to the mess that follows a season's first rain. You'll learn why that initial storm dumps more dirt and organics, how dilution erodes free chlorine, and the fastest way to recover with targeted shock, brushing, and filter management as PSI climbs. From there, we unpack the “DE sneeze” that can puff powder back through returns after a filter clean, what's normal for quad DE designs, and how to protect sensitive hardware like pressure-side cleaners, salt cells, and in-floor systems by checking screens and flow paths.Air in the pump lid gets its own spotlight. We explain the small bubble you might see at low RPM, how to test system tightness at full speed with the air relief open, and where suction-side leaks actually hide—lid O-rings, unions, valve stems, threaded fittings, and bleeder assemblies. You'll get practical fixes to stop drain-back, improve priming, and extend motor life. Finally, we cover chemical odor safety. Acid and chlorine carry expected smells, but a wet trichlor bucket or feeder can create a dangerous gas mix. We outline safe opening steps, storage tips to keep tablets dry, and simple habits that protect your lungs and your route.• Cold-start pump squeal that fades in minutes in low temperatures• Cloudy water and debris spikes after first seasonal rain• Shock levels to recover diluted chlorine and haze• DE and cartridge “hiccup” on startup and how to manage it• Protecting pressure-side cleaners and in-floor systems from blowback• Air in pump lids at low RPM versus real suction leaks• Diagnosing drain-back and hard-to-prime systems• Chemical odor basics and triSend us a textSupport the Pool Guy Podcast Show Sponsors!

What if innovation wasn't reserved for a handful of "geniuses" in hoodies and turtlenecks? What if every person in your organization could solve real problems in bold new ways? Today's episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, I'm joined by Richard Braden to explore how to democratize innovation inside the enterprise. We dig into his practical framework from "Innovation-ish: How Anyone Can Create Breakthrough Solutions to Real Problems in the Real World" which was co-authored with Tessa Forshaw to challenge the myth of the lone genius. Innovation stops being a mysterious black box and becomes a repeatable, teachable capability across the business. Rich explains why most organizations over-invest in "innovation theater" and under-invest in mindset. Instead of obsessing over yet another step-by-step process, he focuses on the mental shifts that actually drive breakthrough thinking. From "shopping" vs. "buying" mindsets to the difference between learning, iterating, and executing, you'll get language you can use with your teams tomorrow. We also unpack Rich's hybrid model for innovation: part consulting, part capability-building. You'll hear how a global quick-service restaurant brand redesigned its supply chain using cross-functional teams—everyone from restaurant crew to executives—working on real projects over nine months. The result? Tangible business outcomes and an enduring lift in problem-solving capability, long after the external experts left. Rich shows that innovation isn't just about moonshots. It's about orbit shots, cloud shots, roof shots, and jump shots—small, targeted changes that add up to massive impact. Imagine your finance team "innovating" the expense-report process so it's fast, accurate, and painless. That may not land you on the cover of a magazine, but it can unlock time, energy, and engagement across the organization. If you're tired of one-off workshops, "innovation labs" off in a corner, or expensive programs that don't stick, this conversation with Rich Braden offers a better path. You'll learn how to embed innovation in day-to-day work, build your own obsolescence into client engagements, and turn innovation from a slogan into a core competency. Three Key Takeaways: • Innovation is a teachable skill. It's not the domain of lone geniuses; with the right mindsets and language, you can help people across the organization solve real problems in new ways. • Mindset beats methodology. Most organizations over-index on processes and "innovation theater," but sustainable breakthroughs come from shifting how people think, learn, and experiment in their day-to-day work. • Capability-building must be tied to real work. The most effective innovation programs blend consulting with hands-on projects, so teams deliver tangible business outcomes and build enduring problem-solving muscles at the same time. If this conversation on democratizing innovation resonated with you, your next listen should be the episode with Michele Zanini. In that one, we take the same core ideas—moving beyond "innovation theater," distributing problem-solving across the organization, and building real capability instead of one-off programs—and apply them to dismantling bureaucracy and unleashing talent at scale. Listen to both episodes together and you'll get a powerful one-two punch: a practical framework for everyday innovation, plus a blueprint for removing the structural and cultural barriers that keep your people from using it. If you're serious about making innovation everyone's job—not just a select few in a lab—queue up the Michele Zanini episode next.

How do you fix what's not working without losing trust in the process? On this episode of The Radical Candor Podcast, Kim and Amy talk with beloved Harvard Business professor Frances Frei and her wife, CEO and bestselling author Anne Morriss, about why speed and care aren't opposites — and how the right sequence of actions can help you go faster and strengthen relationships along the way. Anne and Frances break down the five-day framework behind their book Move Fast and Fix Things, share real stories from coaching leaders and teams, and explain why so many of us misdiagnose the problems we're trying to solve. They also walk through their “trust triangle” — authenticity, logic, and empathy — and reveal how understanding your own “wobbles” can help you communicate more clearly, lead with confidence, and create momentum without leaving people behind.

In a world that constantly demands breakthrough solutions, do you ever feel like innovation is reserved for a select few, or that you're simply not "creative enough"? This week's guests are here to set the record straight: that we are all capable of creative thinking if we just give ourselves permission and a little guidance. Tessa Forshaw and Rich Braden are the co-authors of Innovation-ish: How Anyone Can Create Breakthrough Solutions to Real Problems in the Real World. Tessa is a cognitive scientist exploring how we work, learn, and innovate. She is a co-founder of Harvard's Next Level Lab and teaches Design Thinking and Innovation at Harvard, DCE, and Stanford D School. Rich is the founder and CEO of People Rocket, which helps leaders and teams overcome innovation hesitation; there, they guide clients through the innovation-ish approach, a flexible human-centered framework built on mindset shifts, small adaptive steps, and reflective practice he also teaches at Stanford D School.In this episode, we're cutting through the myth of the "right-brained" innovator. You'll learn how to integrate the six innovation mindsets into your work, overcome "innovation hesitation," and embrace your "whole brain" approach to problem-solving. This conversation offers practical tools to foster fresh thinking within your team, create space for ideas to thrive, and give you the concrete tools to move those ideas forward, no matter your role.Plus, in the extended episode, Tessa and Rich share tips for normalizing failure and using “F-Up Nights” to build a culture that learns from failure.Get FREE mini-episode guides with the big idea from the week's episode delivered to your inbox when you subscribe to my weekly email.Join the conversation now!Conversation Topics(00:00) Introduction – Why experimentation beats opinion-driven decision-making(01:18) The root of spiraling: fear, assumptions, and cognitive bias(04:02) Why small experiments create big clarity(07:10) The danger of optimizing parts of a system instead of the whole(10:42) A real-world case study: redesigning a supply chain through small tests(15:45) Why most ideas fail and why that's a good thing(18:04) How emotional attachment to ideas sabotages good decisions(21:30) Cognitive caution: What your brain is really doing when you avoid failure(25:14) Practicing emotional regulation while testing ideas(28:33) Creating a culture where testing > guessing(30:20) [Extended only] How leaders can use data to reduce conflict and opinion-driven debate(36:24) [Extended only] Normalizing failure and learning from it as a team(40:18) [Extended only] Global “F-Up Nights” and how leaders can model healthy failure

What if creativity isn't a gift possessed by a few—but a skill every leader already has? In this episode of Partnering Leadership, Mahan Tavakoli sits down with Tessa Forshaw and Rich Braden, co-authors of Innovation-ish: How Anyone Can Create Breakthrough Solutions to Real Problems in the Real World. Drawing from their work at Stanford and Harvard, they share how innovation is less about genius and more about discipline, collaboration, and the willingness to see differently.Forshaw and Braden dismantle the myth of the lone genius, showing how the best ideas rarely come from one person's brilliance but from diverse teams willing to challenge each other's assumptions. They unpack the concept of “cognitive caution”—that natural human tendency to play it safe—and explain how leaders can create the psychological conditions that make creativity thrive.The conversation explores why traditional brainstorming often fails, why “innovation theater” gives the illusion of progress without impact, and what leaders can do to make innovation an everyday practice rather than a one-off event. From developing the muscles of divergent and convergent thinking to understanding how fear, hierarchy, and bias stifle creative problem-solving, this dialogue offers a roadmap for embedding innovation deeply into leadership and culture.Braden and Forshaw also discuss the responsibility that comes with innovation—how thoughtful leaders must consider both the intended and unintended consequences of new ideas. And in a world reshaped by AI, they offer a refreshing reminder: technology can amplify human creativity, but it cannot replace the curiosity, humility, and judgment at the heart of real leadership.This episode is a must-listen for CEOs and senior leaders who want to foster innovation that's not performative, but practical—and who see creativity not as a department, but as a leadership imperative.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn why everyone—not just “creative types”—is capable of breakthrough thinking, and how leaders can help teams rediscover that confidence.Hear how to replace “innovation theater” with daily practices that embed creativity into decision-making and culture.Discover the concept of cognitive caution—and how to reduce the fear and hesitation that quietly shut down new ideas in organizations.Explore the difference between divergent, convergent, and executive thinking—and how each contributes to effective innovation.Find out why the myth of the lone genius hurts innovation, and what truly collaborative creativity looks like inside high-performing teams.Learn how to ask better questions—the kind that expand perspective, reveal blind spots, and lead to better solutions.Hear why humility may be a leader's most powerful innovation skill, enabling curiosity and openness across the organization.Understand why short-term performance pressures often block creative problem-solving—and what leaders can do to make space for exploration.Connect with Tessa Forshaw and Rich BradenInnovationish Website Innovationish Substack Tessa Forshaw LinkedIn Rich Braden LinkedIn Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website
