By swapping this vague default for a more specific and honest word, you can understand your week more clearly, make better choices, and create more meaningful momentum in your squiggly career. From feeling overwhelmed to making progress, Sarah shows how “naming it to tame it” helps you turn how you feel into useful actions.Episode 513

Creating Career Safety: Future-Proof Your Career & Leadership skills The old rulebook said: work hard, deliver results, stay loyal, and your career will be safe. But that rulebook? It's obsolete. Today, even the best leaders are getting blindsided by layoffs, burnout, and change they didn't see coming. Target, Amazon, Meta, consulting firms—massive waves of restructuring are reshaping how organizations operate. The question isn't "How do I keep my job?" anymore. It's "How do I create safety, clarity, and growth no matter what changes around me?" In this episode, Blake reveals why the traditional model of job security no longer works and introduces the five essential skills that will define the next decade of leadership. You'll discover how to build real career safety in a world where certainty no longer exists, not by working harder, but by learning to optimize your energy, align with how you're wired, and navigate change with confidence. If you're a high-achieving leader feeling the weight of uncertainty, this episode will help you move from survival mode to strategic leadership.   Episode Highlights   The New Reality of Work [00:45] - Why the old career safety model is obsolete [01:15] - What's happening across corporate America [02:30] - The most significant transition in the history of work   Building Career Safety from the Inside Out [03:45] - What career safety really means  [04:20] - The three foundations of career safety [05:10] - Why you can't future-proof your career from survival mode [06:15] The Torchlight Framework: 5 Skills to Master   Playing Offense, Not Defense [10:00] - Skating to where the puck is going  [10:45] - Moving from protection to creation   Powerful Quotes "When you're aligned with how you're wired to work best, stress becomes fuel. When you're not, it becomes exhaustion. And that's the invisible line between leaders who adapt and those who burn out." -Blake Schofield "The leaders who thrive in this next decade won't be the ones who push harder. They'll be the ones who learn how to optimize their skills, their energy, and their path, and realign faster when things get off track." -Blake Schofield  "What used to make you successful was endurance. What will make you successful now is alignment." -Blake Schofield   Resources Mentioned  Drained at the end of the day & want more presence in your life?

Hey, it's James from SurvivalPunk.com, and this morning it's a cool 40 degrees — perfect weather to rant about something spicy: a YouTube commenter who proudly declared that “prepping is stupid.” Yeah. He said that on a prepping podcast video. Bold move, Cotton. But this episode isn't just me roasting one random dude with a strong opinion and weak logic — it's a deep dive into why prepping isn't stupid, why skills matter, and why it's not an either/or choice.

Mariette Clardy-Davis is Assistant General Counsel at Primerica, providing strategic guidance on the Securities Business. Recognizing AI competence as a professional duty, she launched "Unboxing Generative AI for In-House Lawyers" virtual workshops and an online directory empowering lawyers to move from AI overwhelm to practical application through hands-on learning. In this episode… Legal teams are turning to generative AI to speed up their work, yet many struggle with getting consistent, usable results. Learning AI skills requires hands-on practice with prompting frameworks, styling guides, and instructions that improve output quality. That's why attorneys need creative training approaches that help these skills stick and carry over into their day-to-day work.  Building AI fluency isn't about mastering the technology itself. It's about shifting mindset and approach. One common challenge legal teams encounter is expecting AI to deliver consistent outputs every time, yet AI doesn't work like a copy machine. It responds through patterns, so the same prompt might produce different results. That's why creative, narrative-based training is effective for learning prompting frameworks. When attorneys pair detailed prompt instructions with gold standard examples, AI tools get the reference points they need for tone, style, and structure. Saving strong prompts into a library creates leverage and reduces the time spent rebuilding instructions for recurring tasks. This helps attorneys reduce rework, improve accuracy, and shift from basic efficiency tasks to work that supports strategy and collaboration.  In this episode of She Said Privacy/He Said Security, Jodi and Justin Daniels talk with Mariette Clardy-Davis, Assistant General Counsel at Primerica, about how in-house legal teams can embrace generative AI education. Mariette explains how creative, story-driven workshops make AI learning more engaging and why understanding prompting frameworks is essential for consistent results. She discusses common misconceptions lawyers have about generative AI tools and how building a task-based directory with reusable prompts helps legal teams save time on repetitive work. Mariette also explains how attorneys can use AI not just to speed up tasks but to support more substantive legal work.

What happens when you hit your biggest goals, only to feel a profound emptiness afterward? We share a personal story about a family member who lost a title and, with it, a sense of self, prompting us to reflect on how we define ourselves beyond our achievements.Chapter Summary:00:00 Success Can Be Disorienting03:35 Finding Purpose Beyond Titles07:54 Who Are You Without It?Featured Quotes:“Success can be just as disorienting as failure.” - Maurice“Who are you really behind the title, the awards, the accolades, the certificates or whatever it is?” - Maurice“I truly, truly believe that answer will determine your next breakthrough.” - MauriceBehind the Story:Maurice shares a recent experience with a family member who faced a significant repositioning at work, leading to the loss of a title that had become their entire identity. This moment sparked a discussion about the emptiness that can follow major achievements and the necessity of finding purpose and identity beyond external validation.

Geopolitics are no longer a tailwind for businesses today, opening markets and boosting global trade. Instead, argues ESSEC Business School associate professor Srividya Jandhyala, rising national security concerns and protectionist economic policies have created a headwind for many organizations, and that's changing how executives need to operate. She explains what's changed in the global balance of power, how it's affecting even small to medium-sized companies and unexpected industries —from shrimp farming to fast fashion -- and why leaders need new talent and risk management strategies to adapt. Jandhyala is the author of the book The Great Disruption.

Matt Dalio, founder and CEO of Endless Studios, joins host Mike Palmer to explore the profound connection between games, technology, and workforce development. Matt, who grew up with an early global perspective—including a transformative year in China at age 11—brings his philanthropic drive to the world of scalable tech solutions . We dive into how Matt's company, Endless, initially focused on providing computers in emerging markets, realized that skills are what truly pay the bills. A simple math game, Tux Math, engaged students in a way traditional instruction could not, with classrooms full of kids shouting multiplication tables . The even bigger revelation? Many top tech entrepreneurs, including Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg, started by hacking their games . Matt asserts that the goal is to transform kids from consumers to creators. We discuss how game creation, using tools like Unity and GitHub, develops five core, high-value disciplines: coding, design, digital art, management (product/project), and marketing/business analysis . These skills translate directly into a modern, AI-augmented workforce, where the ability to architect and validate production software is crucial. Key Takeaways: From Consumption to Creation: We need to move young people from passively using smartphones (consumption devices) to actively creating with devices that have a keyboard and mouse (creation devices), fostering a "lean forward" mindset . The Power of Hacking and Games: Learning starts when it becomes more fun to hack your games than to play them, leading to the development of deep, technical understanding. Five Core Disciplines: Game design is a launchpad for learning highly employable, durable skills in coding, design, digital art, management, and go-to-market business analysis . A New Model for Learning: The future of education involves immersing students in real projects on collaborative platforms like GitHub, replicating the workforce environment to teach mindsets like autonomy, agency, and teamwork . AI and the Future Developer: AI is a powerful tool, but it demands new skills: prompt engineering, chaining agent tools, and knowing how to architect, read, and debug production-level code to avoid technical "slop" and security issues. Why You Should Listen: The gap between traditional education and the demands of the AI-driven workforce is wider than ever. You'll hear Matt's global perspective on the rising number of high school students choosing not to pursue costly college degrees and the hunger for education in emerging markets. We discuss how the allure of video games—where the average kid spends 10,000 hours by graduation—can be channeled into productive, skills-building creation time . Matt shares an example of a Peruvian student who used his new skills to build a video game for rural communities to preserve their local language, illustrating the real-world, positive impact of this new educational approach . Listen to understand the model that could prepare the next generation to be "superhumans empowered by AI" .

Hiring your first helper is exciting, but it can also be terrifying. After keeping the wrong person on my team for far too long, I realized I had been focusing on all the wrong things. Skills on a resume are table stakes, but you cannot teach someone to care about the details the way you do. In this episode (Part 2 of our hiring series), I am pulling back the curtain on the screening process that saved me from making that mistake again. I share the specific, behavioral questions I now ask to uncover a candidate's true values, the red flags that signal a poor fit, and the single most important step I take before making any commitment: the paid trial project. This is the guide I wish I had when I started building my team.   Chapters 00:00 Welcome Back & The Hiring Journey 00:45 The Mistake I Made With My First Hire 02:05 Looking Beyond the Resume: Skills vs. Values 03:00 Why "Culture Fit" Is Everything for a Small Creative Business 04:00 The Pre-Screening Trick for Attention to Detail 05:50 How to Ask About Past Work (The "Prioritization" Question) 07:45 Asking About Mistakes and Listening for Ownership 09:30 How Do They Handle Critical Feedback? 10:30 The Importance of a (Paid) Trial Project 11:50 The Truth Revealed in the Trial 12:20 Red Flags: Badmouthing and Vague Answers 13:00 Why the Questions They Ask Matter 13:30 The One Question I Wish I Had Asked 14:00 Final Thoughts: Aligned, Not Perfect   Support the Show Website: https://www.martineseverin.com/ Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/martine.severin/ | https://www.instagram.com/thisishowwecreate_ Subscribe to the Newsletter: https://www.martineseverin.substack.com/ This is How We Create is produced by Martine Severin.

Tucker Carlson's interview with right-wing provocateur podcaster Nick Fuentes has the conservative movement fighting over what the definition of “canceling” is and struggling to determine if there are cases in which it is called for. If so, was the Fuentes interview one of them? Victor Davis Hanson states there is a fine line between “canceling” and “deplatforming,” and it all has to do with how the platformer handles the issue they're amplifying. He breaks down this dichotomy and explains where he believes Carlson went wrong on this episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In a Few Words.” “ When you don't invite Nick Fuentes on your program, it doesn't mean that you're canceling him. It doesn't mean that you're deplatforming him because he's beyond the pale. And you say, ‘Well, who are you to say that, Victor?' Well, I'm not Victor saying that. There are accepted norms—that you don't use the N-word, or you don't call for people to go back to Israel, if they're Jewish, or you don't make fun of people's race in the public sphere, the way he did. You can do that, of course, under the First Amendment, but you're not invited into acceptable venues to vent those views and to spread hate.” (0:00) Platforming vs. Canceling (2:15) Debating Extremists (3:54) Tucker Carlson's Skills (4:27) Norms and Boundaries in Media (5:42) Tucker Carlson's Recent Controversies (6:54) Conclusion

One of the hardest things we can be asked to do is to believe in ourselves. For a lot of us, it's easy to believe that God is good. We can believe He's powerful, loving, and able to work miracles. We can believe that He answers prayer and that He guides people's lives. But when it comes to believing that He can do something through us — well, that's where we start to hesitate.  Send us a textSupport the showThe Farm Wife (website)Let's Visit!

She walks through the six core values that guide Novex. Kindness, openness, intentionality, trustworthiness, initiative, and accountability, and how they influence decisions, hiring, coaching, and team interactions. Kelsey describes the pride she feels watching employees embody these values not only at work but in their personal lives, reinforcing the power of a values-first culture. Leadership Principles and Tech, AI, and the Human Touch in Logistics Empowerment Kelsey and Gene shift the conversation to today's evolving workplace and the rise of AI in logistics. While acknowledging industry layoffs and the anxiety surrounding automation, Kelsey stresses that technology should enhance human performance, not replace it. She believes logistics still thrives on relationships and personalized service, which machines cannot replicate. For Novex, AI is a tool, not the driver, and the company remains committed to keeping people at the heart of the business. Why Culture Shapes Leadership: Not the Other Way Around Diving deeper, Kelsey emphasizes that culture determines the type of leaders who emerge. She shares the breakthroughs she had once she formally defined Novex's core values, giving the organization a clear framework for hiring, training, and accountability. Her hiring philosophy centers on behavior over skill. Skills can be taught, but misaligned behaviors disrupt teams. By prioritizing value-aligned behavior, Kelsey has cultivated a dependable, supportive environment where people can thrive. Learning to Let Go: A Founder's Leadership Evolution Reflecting on her journey, Kelsey discusses her early tendency to control every detail of the business and how a long overseas family trip forced her to step back. Trusting her team, allowing them to make mistakes, learn, and lead became a turning point for Novex. Empowering her people has freed her to focus on strategy, brand development, and deeper client relationships. Her story highlights how founders evolve and how letting go can unlock growth, independence, and a stronger culture. Key Takeaways Values Drive Everything: Novex Supply Chain's six core values kindness, openness, intentionality, trustworthiness, initiative, and accountability serve as the foundation for decision-making, hiring, and team development. Culture Shapes Leadership: Kelsey emphasizes that strong culture produces strong leaders. Clearly defining company values created alignment and accountability across the organization. Hire for Behavior, Train for Skill: Skills can be taught, but behavior and attitude determine long-term success. Value-aligned behavior is the top hiring priority at Novex. Tech Supports People, Not Replaces Them: Despite AI advancements and logistics industry layoffs, Kelsey believes the human element relationships, communication, and personalized service remains irreplaceable. Letting Go Unlocks Growth: Kelsey's shift from controlling every detail to empowering her team was a turning point. Allowing others to lead freed her to focus on strategy, brand growth, and client relationships. Personal Growth Matters: The company's values don't just impact work they influence how employees show up in all areas of their lives, fostering well-rounded personal and professional development. Intentional Leadership Builds Thriving Teams: By trusting her team, creating clarity, and reinforcing shared values, Kelsey demonstrates how intentional leadership fuels sustainable growth and a strong organizational culture.
