SHARPEN THE GIFT YOU ALREADY HAVE- Being the “helper” in your world is a beautiful gift—but it's not the same as being a trained coach. In this episode, I'm sharing how I moved from well-meaning conversations that didn't always create change to skilled guidance that consistently helped people move forward. We'll look at Proverbs 4:7 and why wisdom plus understanding is the combination every coach needs. Key Takeaways: Compassion is powerful, but coaching skills make it sustainable and effective. Training protects you from burnout and equips you to help in a deeper way. The PEARL Practice turns natural empathy into a structured path to change. Listener Challenge: Reflect on the last time you felt drained after helping someone. Write down how that situation might have been different if you had a clear coaching process to follow.

What if the secret to a peaceful, impactful life is simply refusing to live by anyone else's rules?”Then imagine what would change if you stopped living for a legacy and started living like today is all that matters.As you get to know Andrew Brummer and his journey toward self-actualization, you'll discover the seeds harvested with him were planted early. He had a difficult childhood for various reasons, but his parents provided a sound upbringing. His father taught him to be a “multiplier”. This means, to not only enhance others, but to be skilled in many areas rather than have a narrowly-focused specialty. Add his mother's teaching that nobody is going to make things better for you and you alone choose how to live, and you combine resourcefulness with resilience. His mother also taught him to accept people as they are and love them the way they want to be loved. Over time, this liberated Andrew to be of better service to his employees, his teammates, and his community. It also helped him find his own True North and build a solid foundation for himself.All in all a good package, and on the surface it looked fine. But Fine Is a 4-Letter Word. We all wear what Andrew calls “the Facebook mask”, where we make it seem like everything is great and watch everyone else do the same. Andrew admits here he's gone through many tough times, including in his relationships, work situations and immigration challenges. Plus, he's had a lifetime of medical issues that have required numerous surgeries.But what did he discover?Ultimately, nobody is going to put their nose to the grindstone and do the work for you. It's up to you to make it happen. And, like his mother taught him, it's up to you to decide what kind of day you'll have when you wake up in the morning and get moving.Today, Andrew is not only a fractional COO, he's also either leading or launching several other companies, including one that's building a firearms training system that can even teach kids to use them safely. He is a coach and a mentor. Plus, he has a radio station that has a 200-song playlist. And that's when he's not doing woodwork or decorating his house with 35,000 Christmas lights. Skilled in many areas, as his father taught him. Sounds like an interesting guy, yes?In a moment, when you hear from Andrew, you'll discover a lot more about his journey. One key lesson was finding his own truth and coming to embrace that each of us has our own truth. There are so many more in his new book, “Leading Magnanimously”, which you'll hear more about.Andrew's hype song is "Kiss Off" by Violent Femmes.Resources:Andrew Brummer's website: https://ardunan.com/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewbrummer/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/andrewbrummer X: https://x.com/andrewbrummer Claim your copy of Andrew's new book, “Leading Magnanimously”, at https://ardunan.com/village/books/land-lm Invitation from Lori:This episode is sponsored by Zen Rabbit.

Welcome back to the Sutta Meditation Series PodcastThis is the Dhamma talk with Metta Centre (SYD) on "Why we should become skilled in the ways of our own mind". This session was conducted via zoom. Drawing from the Sacitta Sutta (AN 10.51), we will examine the Buddha's teaching on how to become skilled in the ways or nature of our own mind. The Buddha taught to train our minds as if our clothes or head were on fire. Through this, and another simile, he highlighted the benefit of regular self-examination towards abandoning unskilled states and developing skilled states of the mind. In this session, we will explore how we can apply this powerful teaching, which helps us to establish contemplation of the mind, undertake noble washing and activate the noble eightfold path.Blessings of the Triple Gem.

In this episode, Aileen Miziolek speaks with renowned facilitator and author Roger Schwarz about the critical roles facilitators and consultants play—especially in complex systems like family enterprises. Roger explores how mutual learning, clear boundaries and transparency can elevate the value professionals bring to their clients, offering practical insights and tools for navigating advisory roles with compassion and clarity.   All views, information, and opinions expressed during this podcast are solely those of the individuals involved and do not necessarily represent those of Family Enterprise Canada.   Guest bio Roger M. Schwarz, PhD, is an organizational psychologist and president and CEO of Roger Schwarz & Associates. For more than forty years, he has helped leadership teams and organizations achieve strong performance, solid working relationships, and individual well-being. His work is grounded in the premise that creating fundamental, systemic, and sustainable change requires that individuals, teams, and the larger organization change the mindset that guides their behaviour.   You can learn more about Roger M. Schwarz on LinkedIn and the Roger Schwarz and Associates website.   Key Takeaways [2:03] Aileen Miziolek welcomes Roger M. Schwarz and asks him to share a little bit about his background.   [4:10] Roger starts off sharing the proper definition of a facilitator, and more importantly, what they cannot be.   [6:28] The facilitator and consultant roles intersect and give rise to different possible titles. For Roger, it boils down to one question: What value do you bring to the client?   [9:31] Roger underscores the more obvious traps of the facilitative consultant with a few examples.   [12:06] The decision of which role to play is fraught with challenges, and the first may be a conversation with your client.   [16:31] Engaging a system without becoming enmeshed is critical. Roger talks about boundaries and becoming a mirror.   [18:38] Roger explains the unilateral control approach and mutual learning.   [21:38] The five core values of mutual learning.   [24:24] Roger shares the chess versus puzzle analogy.   [25:40] Many facilitators and consultants often get stuck. Roger offers that they try the transparency test.   [28:42] The role compassion plays in facilitating.   [31:34] Roger tackles an issue he is passionate about: the use of agendas! Or rather, using the purpose and process method.   [34:31] The purpose and process are established right before a meeting, but not so early as to become the meeting itself!   [37:05] Roger shares the story of a good and a bad facilitation.   [44:02] Roger shares who his books are for as well as some of the services and resources his office provides.   [45:55] Aileen thanks Roger Schwarz for sharing so much of his knowledge, and closes this episode by reminding listeners to rate and subscribe.   If you enjoyed today's episode, you can subscribe to Let's Talk Family Enterprise on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and other podcast apps.

Edith Targonski arrived to the United States from Peru when she was 19 years old. Her sister had arrived a few years before and she was so happy about being reunited with her, but unhappy to speak English. She had visited the U.S. numerous times prior to her move but didn't know much English and lacked confidence in her speaking skills. She soon met a fellow immigrant from Poland, who arrived at 17 years old with his parents. They fell in love and got married. Edith and her husband created a beautiful family blending and honoring their individual cultures from South America and Poland, while building their own family traditions. They learned English and raised their children in an English speaking household but also exposed their children to Spanish and Polish for them to have the opportunity to communicate with their grandparents and broaden their horizons. Since arriving twenty seven years ago, Edith has been very motivated to learn, grow her career and serve the community. She earned a special education degree from Sacred Heart Univ, and was an effective classroom teacher for many years. Currently, she serves as a passionate advocate for families who have children with special needs. She is a business development consultant. She has been a dedicated volunteer to many organizations, giving credit to her father for her need to give back and learning this from watching him. She has graduated about 9 senior citizens who have achieved citizenship under her tutelage at the Stamford Senior Center.

She has been a facilitator for People Empowering People-PEP and currently serves on the Design Team. In addition, she serves on numerous other boards in the community, all of them serving the immigrant and Latin communities in different ways, while raising her 3 children to be passionate, giving and kind people.

Physical therapist John Corsino discusses his article, "Lifelong learning: a game-changer in diagnosing dizziness." He highlights how often the answers to complex cases, like acute dizziness, are present in the exam room but can be missed due to an over-reliance on diagnostic testing and systemic pressures that undervalue thorough physical examination. John champions the importance of lifelong learning for clinicians and the effective use of specific physical exam techniques, such as the HINTS exam, which can differentiate between peripheral vestibular issues and central nervous system insults with high accuracy, sometimes even outperforming imaging. The conversation delves into how misperceptions about dizziness persist and how a commitment to skilled examination can prevent diagnostic delays, reduce health care costs, and significantly improve patient outcomes. The key takeaway is: Investing time in honing physical examination skills and fostering a culture of continuous learning is crucial for clinicians to provide high-value, accurate diagnoses, especially for challenging symptoms like dizziness, ultimately transforming patient care.
