From a psychological standpoint, the drive to be desirable is deeply rooted in fundamental human needs for love, belonging, and self-esteem. Evolutionary psychology suggests we're drawn to traits that promise social acceptance and successful relationships. Key personality traits like kindness, empathy, and a good sense of humor are consistently valued for long-term compatibility. We also gravitate towards those who share our values and interests, and often seek partners who can fulfill our psychological needs, sometimes projecting idealized images onto them. Interestingly, the desire often extends beyond merely finding someone desirable, to the profound human yearning to be desired by them. In relationships, traits like low neuroticism, high agreeableness, conscientiousness, and emotional stability are strongly linked to satisfaction.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/lets-talk-sex--5052038/support.

Watching and listening to ourselves can be tough, but you have to practice. Those nerves and adrenaline only show up in real situations, and working through them is how you get better." "For those of you who are speakers, please listen to this: 'You're never as great as they tell you you are, and you're never as bad as they tell you you are. You're usually somewhere in the middle.'" "We need to become the CEOs of our own career and really take it upon ourselves to be our own best advocate. Even the best manager and the best team who truly want you to do well are ultimately most concerned with themselves. So you need to take it upon yourself to make sure your hard work gets seen." "If a tree falls in a forest and no one's there to hear it, did it make any sound? If you do a bunch of great, amazing, hard work but no one's there to see it, did it happen?" "If hard work is the baseline, how do we differentiate ourselves from it? We have to start advocating for ourselves and making sure our work is known." "You have to figure out what's the best use of your time. Anybody who wants to monopolize your time has to be willing to pay for it." "If we're not able to invest in our personal relationships, no matter how great we are in business, it will never be the best it can be, because what we apply in our personal lives bleeds into our business lives." "Work on relationships with people you know will never be able to help you. Do it on purpose. If you know you're building a relationship you'll never get anything from, they'll know your motives are pure." "Relationships are like a bank account. Every time you give, you make a deposit. When you ask for something, that's a withdrawal. You never want the account to be overdrawn when you have to make that withdrawal." "Some of my favorite career advice is: over prepare, but don't over plan."

John continues his conversation with Walker Kimberly Brandt.

Listen to this episode to learn more: [00:00] - Part 1 recap [01:18] - Forgiveness is for you, not them [02:56] - AM vs FM radio analogy [04:33] - Finding your inner frequency & listening to your true voice [09:09] - What is improvisational cooking?

No, it benefits the one who does the forgiving. It really doesn't benefit the other person at all. It benefits you." "We, as human beings, often put shackles on ourselves." "We have a sense of freedom we know we have a right to, and a responsibility to give it to ourselves. A responsibility to recognize and acknowledge what we've been through, even when it wasn't ideal. We may judge those experiences, but they are part of us and part of our story." "There is a gift there for you, and somebody else needs to see you rise from yours, me rise from mine, and know that there is another choice." "You can achieve and check boxes all day long, but if, at the end of it all, you don't have that feeling of comfort with just you being you, and appreciating that you have a gift of life, and you're here, and that you have people that love you, and you're able to love people. To me, that's everything." "It's our humanity that makes a person feel safe, and seen, and heard, and cared for." "You can love, and be courageous, and trust that your vulnerability can be your superpower." "It really is helpful to not let an experience go without receiving all the gifts, if I can find them."

Larry explains how the firm builds conviction through founder relationships, long-term partnership, and a product-and-brand-first view of durable growth. They discuss how JMI supports companies through scaling, why operating partners keep returning, and how underwriting looks different in mission-driven sectors like K–12 and nonprofit tech where customers are schools and communities, not Fortune 500s.

Most leaders think they have a strong culture—until they discover the hidden traits that are quietly weakening performance. In this episode, Dave reveals the next set of high-performance culture essentials that can transform your team's focus, accountability, and results.

Is it possible to have a brain wired for entrepreneurship, but actually thrive best within traditional employment? In this insightful episode, host Diann Wingert flips the script on the common narrative in both the ADHD and business worlds: that entrepreneurial traits automatically mean you should start your own business. Instead, she explores the concept of intrapreneurship—bringing creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit into an existing organization—and how this path might be the most strategic decision for many ADHDers.If you're wrestling with the decision to go solo or stay employed, give this episode a listen. It just might give you permission to build a life—and career—that truly works for your brain.Three key takeaways:Entrepreneurial traits ≠ Entrepreneurial career: You can be creative, visionary, and disruptive without having to start your own business. Don't fall for the myth that employment is “settling.”Intrapreneurship unlocks impact & stability: Express your entrepreneurial strengths inside an organization. Lead without authority, innovate processes, and treat your role like you own it—while benefiting from structure, resources, and a steady paycheck.Signs that traditional employment isn't right for you:Not everyone is meant to shine as an intrapreneur. If every manager is a nightmare, structure feels suffocating, or your best ideas die in committee, maybe going solo is your move. But it's all about matching your brain and real life with the right path—not shame, not hustle-culture FOMO.Workplace roles & cultures where ADHD-ish traits thrive:Look for product development, business strategy, internal consulting, startups, project-based work, or innovation labs. Go where experimenters are rewarded, hierarchies are flatter, and outcomes matter more than bureaucracy.Mic Drop Moment:“Infrastructure isn't the enemy of innovation. Structure, when it's the right structure, is what lets your brain do what it does best without getting derailed by all the shit you hate doing."Action Step:Take 10 mins for honest self-reflection. Where do you really do your best work? What structure supports you? Then, make the choice that serves your life—not LinkedIn optics or anyone else's expectations.About the Host:Diann Wingert (she/her) is seasoned coach, consultant and the creator/host of ADHD-ish. Drawing from her many years of experience as a former psychotherapist, business owner, and someone who thinks "outside the box," Diann is known for her straight-talking, no-nonsense approach to the intersection of neurodiversity and the world of work.Enjoyed the Episode?Share your thoughts! Leave a review and let Diann know what resonated, challenged, or inspired you. Your feedback helps ADHD-ish reach more listeners who need to hear these honest conversations. © 2025 ADHD-ish Podcast.

This insightful episode flips the script on the common narrative in both the ADHD and business worlds: that entrepreneurial traits automatically mean you should start your own business. Instead, host Diann Wingert explores the concept of intrapreneurship—bringing creativity, innovation, and entrepreneurial spirit into an existing organization—and how this path might be the most strategic decision for many ADHDers.If you're wrestling with the decision to go solo or stay employed, give this episode a listen. It just might give you permission to build a life—and career—that truly works for your brain.Three key takeaways:Entrepreneurial traits ≠ Entrepreneurial career: You can be creative, visionary, and disruptive without having to start your own business. Don't fall for the myth that employment is “settling.”Intrapreneurship unlocks impact & stability: Express your entrepreneurial strengths inside an organization. Lead without authority, innovate processes, and treat your role like you own it—while benefiting from structure, resources, and a steady paycheck.Signs that traditional employment isn't right for you:Not everyone is meant to shine as an intrapreneur. If every manager is a nightmare, structure feels suffocating, or your best ideas die in committee, maybe going solo is your move. But it's all about matching your brain and real life with the right path—not shame, not hustle-culture FOMO.Workplace roles & cultures where ADHD-ish traits thrive:Look for product development, business strategy, internal consulting, startups, project-based work, or innovation labs. Go where experimenters are rewarded, hierarchies are flatter, and outcomes matter more than bureaucracy.Mic Drop Moment:“Infrastructure isn't the enemy of innovation. Structure, when it's the right structure, is what lets your brain do what it does best without getting derailed by all the shit you hate doing."Action Step:Take 10 mins for honest self-reflection. Where do you really do your best work? What structure supports you? Then, make the choice that serves your life—not LinkedIn optics or anyone else's expectations.About the Host:Diann Wingert is a seasoned business coach, consultant and speaker. Drawing from her many years of experience as a former psychotherapist, serial business owner, and someone who thinks "outside the box," ADHD-ish host, Diann is known for her straight-talking, no-nonsense approach to the intersection of neurodiversity and the world of work.

Welcome to PGX Raw & Real PGX Raw & Real is simple. I sit with people who've lived through something and/or made it big, and I try to understand what it did to them.Sometimes it gets deep, sometimes it gets weird, sometimes we end up laughing at stories that should've gone very differently just like how real conversations go.This isn't meant to be inspiration or a template for life (for that, you can check out PGX Ideas).This space is different.
