What makes a podcast truly powerful — and worth your time? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter Winick sits down with Ryan Estes, co-founder of Wildcast and Kitcaster, to unpack what separates a great podcast guest — and host — from the rest. Ryan's work connects CEOs, founders, and thought leaders to the right audiences through strategic podcast placement. His mission: to turn conversations into meaningful distribution. Ryan explains why founder-led marketing outperforms brand marketing — by as much as 80%. He reveals how showing up authentically on podcasts isn't just about exposure; it's about building credibility, creating demand, and sparking conversations that open doors to your ideal clients. Together, Peter and Ryan explore what makes a podcast worth appearing on. It's not about chasing the biggest show or the biggest name — it's about relevance. For many business leaders, the right niche podcast might be the only place where all their potential buyers are listening. Ryan walks through how to identify the right shows for your goals, the importance of energy and chemistry in a podcast conversation, and how to develop the skills — from delivery to lighting — that make you a guest worth remembering. They also discuss the “guest hygiene” problem: why so many smart leaders fail to prepare properly, neglect to promote their episodes, or treat podcasts like disposable media hits. Ryan argues that building a personal distribution network — your own voice, audience, and presence — is an investment that carries over to every project, every company, and every new venture. If you've been thinking about launching a podcast, or becoming a sought-after guest, this episode is your roadmap to doing it right — and doing it with purpose. Three Key Takeaways: • Founder-led marketing drives results. When leaders speak directly to audiences through podcasts, their message builds far more trust and engagement than traditional brand marketing. • Relevance beats reach. The best podcasts for business growth aren't always the biggest — they're the ones where your ideal buyers actually listen and engage. • Consistency builds credibility. Thought leaders who prepare well, promote their episodes, and keep showing up authentically develop a personal brand that outlasts any single company or project. If this conversation inspired you to think differently about using your voice and platform, take the next step by listening to our episode with Srinivas Rao. He dives deep into how creativity, curiosity, and personal expression fuel powerful thought leadership. Discover how to build an audience that connects with your ideas — not just your brand.

Imagine this…You walk into a room with 100 creators — coaches, speakers, founders, freedom-based CEOs — and ask them:
You don't have to command a cruise ship (or a boardroom) to lead with purpose. On this episode of The Stacking Benjamins Show, Joe Saul-Sehy, OG, and Neighbor Doug welcome Richard Fain, longtime chairman and former CEO of Royal Caribbean Group, for a conversation that's not about corporate leadership… but about life leadership. Richard shares timeless lessons he learned from decades steering one of the world's most innovative companies—lessons that apply just as powerfully to parenting, coaching your kid's soccer team, running a PTA fundraiser, or simply trying to create more joy at home. You'll hear how to dream bigger about your own life, build a culture of kindness and excellence in small groups, and turn the ordinary moments around you into opportunities to “deliver the WOW.” Of course, this wouldn't be the basement without a few money detours. The crew also breaks down new 401(k) rules and annuity updates, debates whether tax flexibility beats fancy planning, and celebrates Doug's birthday with trivia, laughter, and a few movie reviews along the way. By the end, you'll walk away inspired to bring a little more vision, creativity, and generosity into every corner of your world. No cruise ship required. What You'll Learn How to lead from wherever you are: Richard's lessons on building strong teams, communities, and families. No corner office needed. Turning the ordinary into extraordinary: Simple ways to “deliver the WOW” at home, work, or anywhere people count on you. Dreaming bigger about your life: Why bold vision isn't just for CEOs; it's for anyone looking to create meaning and momentum. Financial updates you can use: New 401(k) rules, annuity insights, and practical tips to strengthen your plan. The lighter side of leadership: Trivia, birthday celebrations, and a few fun detours (because we can't resist). Questions for the Basement What's one way you could “deliver the WOW” in your own life this week? Who's a leader in your everyday world (at home, work, or your community) who's made an impact on you?

Leverage Your Incredible Factor Business Podcast with Darnyelle Jervey Harmon, MBA
This MTM Minute is powered by Move to Millions Ascension Archetype Quiz The MTM Minute is a quick dose of inspiration with a powerful affirmation based on our weekly full-length episode. And beginning this season, the MTM Minute will include a prayer of the week for 7 figure CEOs and 7 figure CEOs in the making. That's right, you don't have to choose – you can love God AND make millions. Most seven-figure CEOs are looking for their next big move: the perfect funnel, the right Facebook ad strategy, or the next high-converting offer. But what if that's not your real bottleneck? In this electric, high-impact solo episode, Dr. Darnyelle flips the script on what it takes to create wealth in 2025—and beyond. This is not a marketing masterclass. It's a money relationship recalibration, and it will rock you. If you're tired of chasing cash and ready to call in capital, this 8-minute powerhouse message will disrupt your nervous system in all the right ways. We're talking wealth embodiment, financial strategy, nervous system alignment, and soul-infused stewardship. You'll hear why regulated business owners outperform hustlers, why scarcity has a scent, and how to build a financial relationship that multiplies—not manipulates—your peace, purpose, and prosperity. Whether you're sitting at $100K cash months or reaching for $500K, this episode will show you what needs to shift inside before more can flow outside. 3 Powerful Takeaways: How to raise your abundance baseline and normalize overflow How to lead money with order, not emotional reaction How to use stewardship and divine assignment to multiply wealth Here's the truth… The biggest threat to your wealth isn't the economy—it's how you're energetically managing your money. Desperation repels dollars. Panic stifles profit. Hustle creates holding patterns. Your money isn't fleeing—it's following the scent of stewardship. In a mature market, precision, peace, and presence are the new power moves. Until you recalibrate your energetic posture, you'll stay busy but broke. This is your invitation to… Take 8 minutes to rewire your wealth frequency. Before you add another sales page, watch this. Before you panic about the market, listen to this. The kind of wealth you're craving doesn't come from hustling harder—it comes from leading your money with vision, values, and vibration. Put one hand on your heart and the other open—because this episode is going to pour.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Greg Star, Founder of Driven Authentic Branding Solutions, who shares how he helps destinations stand out using LinkedIn. He discusses why it is important to lean into thought leadership posts both for the company profile and the people who work there. Greg shares some real-life examples of results that his clients are seeing and how you can identify your content pillars and find your voice. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Greg's personal journey reshaped his outlook on business and inspired the launch of his latest company Why elevating both personal and company brands on LinkedIn is critical for industry reputation and business growth What makes personal LinkedIn posts eight times more engaging than company page posts How tourism professionals and executives can use LinkedIn to generate inbound leads and deepen current client connections Finding your authentic voice and consistently creating compelling LinkedIn content Why consistency matters more on LinkedIn than posting daily, and how this steady rhythm builds trust and visibility How commenting thoughtfully on industry posts can dramatically increase your reach and position you as a leader in your field The Overlooked Power of Personal LinkedIn Profiles Most organizations pour time and money into building their company LinkedIn pages. But as Greg points out, you get eight times more engagement from a personal post than a company post. Yet, less than 10% of travel industry professionals actively post on LinkedIn. Company pages do have a role, but it's the people—sales directors, CEOs, and destination marketers—who bring brands to life on LinkedIn. The attention should be on maximizing the personal profiles of the people behind the organization because that is what's going to move the needle the most for DMOs. Telling Your Brand Story: Content Pillars and Practical Examples Most people struggle with what to post or worry about sounding too self-promotional. Greg simplifies content creation with the content pillars approach: define three to five topics you're passionate about, whether it's industry trends, personal growth, customer wins, or behind-the-scenes stories. Posts can be brief, and three to six sentences are often enough. When you're thinking about what to post: Break down real conversations: What do you say to prospects over coffee? Each point can be its own post. Share stories, not just stats: Humanizing your message attracts more engagement and builds connection. Don't reshare, add your voice: Rather than simply reposting, offer your perspective on company updates or industry news. Comment strategically: Thoughtful comments on others' posts can boost your profile—sometimes even more than your own posts. Greg recommends aiming to post one to three times a week. Consistency is more important than volume, and the key is making LinkedIn content a regular part of your work routine. Don't underestimate the impact your personal story and insights can have on your career, and on your destination's growth and reputation. The world wants to know what makes you (and your place) awesome, so start sharing!

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, sponsored by CLOUDVICE, I explore how Oracle's new CEOs, Mike Sicilia and Clay Magouyrk, are steering the company deeper into the AI revolutionHighlights00:00 — Today's episode is brought to you by CloudVice, winner of the 2025 Oracle North America Technology and Cloud AI Innovation Partner Award. “We're honored to receive the 2025 Oracle North America Technology & Cloud AI Innovation Partner Award, a recognition that underscores CLOUDVICE's unwavering commitment to advancing enterprise AI on Oracle Cloud,” said Jaison Correya, CEO of CLOUDVICE. “This achievement reflects the breakthrough projects and real-world transformations we've delivered with Oracle — and at Oracle AI World 2025, we took that vision even further by unveiling CORX, our next-generation platform where AI thinks, Cloud scales, Blockchain verifies, and Robotics acts. It represents the next leap in intelligent automation and the future of real-world autonomy."00:25 — So, we're beginning to hear the strategies Oracle's two new CEOs are taking. That's Mike Sicilia and Clay Magouyrk. It's clear they think that Oracle's supremacy in data and infrastructure is going to make them successful in AI — to the point that their main focus is: how do we drive great customer outcomes using AI services?01:20 — And Oracle's plan, which they've been talking about a little bit and will unveil this week in much more detail, is that while LLMs currently work with public internet data, they're going to make available — very securely, privately, and with all requisite compliance — enterprise data that also can be accessed by those LLMs.02:21 — Clay Magouyrk talked a bit about the work Oracle has done to reach the point where its infrastructure is seen as superior. Magouyrk said that inside Oracle, the idea came up — “What if we shrunk the cloud down to a very tiny size? Could we get better performance, and could we give more deployment options to customers?” — it turned out that was exactly the case.03:28 — This week at Oracle AI World, they're going to introduce a new cloud bundle that has three racks — from 40 to three. Also, the stunning multicloud agreements that Oracle has reached with other hyperscalers — Microsoft, Google Cloud, and AWS — mean that those three competitors of Oracle sell the Oracle Database to their customers through their own clouds.04:21 — Because for all the things Oracle has done in its first 48 or 49 years, the next five years, triggered by all these changes we've just described, are going to be very different. Sicilia said, “One of the things you can count on as we move forward into those next five years is that we are currently, at Oracle, taking a very different approach.” Visit Cloud Wars for more.
For financial journalist Elizabeth MacBride, the New American economy is like the old one - only worse. Describing it as the “Frankenstein version of neo-liberalism”, MacBride explains that business has overtaken government to create ever-more-powerful bankers like Larry Fink and Jamie Dimon. But all is not lost. In her upcoming new book, Capital Evolution, co-authored with the VC Seth Levine, MacBride argues that there's a new consensus taking shape - what she calls “Dynamic Capitalism” - which balances profits with purpose. So if we can get beyond today's neo-liberal Frankenstein moment, she promises, America will be able to address the great 21st-century challenges of inequality and climate change. I have to admit I'm not convinced. Rather than capital evolution, I see the growing political power of Wall Street players like Dimon and Fink. We shall see. But when a Wall Street CEO like Jamie Dimon announces $10 billion bets on national security (as he did early this week), it's no surprise that the loudest calls these days are for revolution rather than evolution. Nor is it surprising that a 21st century version of Frankenstein - Mary Shelley's apocalyptic 1818 warning about the destructive consequences of industrialization - will be appearing on Netflix next month. 1. Business Has Overtaken Government in Power and InfluenceMacBride argues that CEOs like Jamie Dimon and Larry Fink now wield more power than most elected officials, yet remain fundamentally unaccountable. When Dimon announces $10 billion investments in national security, the lines between Wall Street and Washington have clearly blurred—perhaps irreversibly.2. We're Living in a “Frankenstein Version of Neo-Liberalism”The current system isn't classic neoliberalism but a corrupted mutation where government has been “co-opted and turned into a tool for punishing people.” The small-government ideology has created not freedom but a punitive state that serves corporate interests while abandoning its regulatory role.3. “Dynamic Capitalism” Requires Long-Term Sacrifice—But Who's Really Sacrificing?MacBride believes trauma from climate change, inequality, and COVID is creating willingness for short-term sacrifice for long-term stability—similar to the post-WWII generation. But as the interviewer notes, when titans like Dimon and Fink talk about sacrifice, they only get richer. The question remains: whose sacrifice?4. Trust Is the Currency of the New Economy—And It's in Short SupplyIn an age when institutions have weakened, MacBride advocates “trust but verify” as the operating principle. She argues figures like Dimon and Fink are “generally trustworthy” even if not “morally authoritative.” The interviewer's skepticism about figures like PayPal's Dan Schulman highlights how fragile this trust actually is.5. New Coalitions Are Forming, But Revolution May Trump EvolutionMacBride sees evidence of consensus-building around stakeholder capitalism and long-term thinking, particularly among Democrats after their electoral losses. But her optimism about “capital evolution” may be wishful thinking when the loudest calls are for revolution, not gradual reform.Keen On America is a reader-supported publication.

WWJ auto analyst John McElroy reports while General Motors is the first to report it will have to write off 1.6 billion, they won't be the last. And the write offs are not something CEOs want to do.
From the BBC World Service: Chief executives have been urged to plan for computer security breaches by going back to pen and paper. The U.K. government told CEOs to plan offline contingencies after a number of high-profile attacks on companies — hacks that cost global brands millions of dollars. We'll learn more. Plus, delegates are in London for U.N. talks aimed at reducing the environmental impact of global shipping. And, we'll hear about the impact of tariffs on Swiss businesses.
Most executives still chase superstar hires, assuming great individuals will automatically form great teams. In this Partnering Leadership conversation, Dr. Vanessa Druskat brings research depth and field-tested experience to make a different case. She is the author of The Emotionally Intelligent Team: Building Collaborative Groups that Outperform the Rest and a leading voice on how team norms drive performance. Her central claim is practical and testable. Outperformance comes from a clear system of team norms that reliably produce trust, candor, and real debate.Druskat explains why experienced leadership teams underdeliver even with strong résumés. Status and power dominate airtime. Quiet voices go unheard. The organization leaves talent on the table. Her work shows that ordinary teams become extraordinary when leaders codify the right norms, invite every voice, and convert distributed knowledge into better decisions.The episode organizes Team Emotional Intelligence into three buckets you can put to work fast. First, Belonging. People feel known, valued, and supported. Second, Learning Together. The team reviews what is working and what is not, and every voice participates in the analysis. Third, Outside In. The team seeks ideas and pressure tests beyond the group, including customers and friendly skeptics. Druskat ties these norms to psychological safety and faster, higher quality decisions, with concrete examples like 60-second check-ins, round-robins on live decisions, and five-minute debriefs.For time-pressed CEOs, the playbook is efficient. Start with an all-voices baseline to gauge current norms. Leaders often see a rosier picture than the team. Then pilot small behaviors in leadership meetings. Shift time from presenting to exchanging information and deciding. Add a short debrief after key moments. Druskat shares examples from executive teams and clinical settings where simple routines quickly lifted collaboration and results.She closes by tackling a stubborn myth. Hiring matters, but interactions matter more. Teams with average talent and superior norms outperform star teams with poor interactions. If your board expects speed, quality decisions, and execution, engineer the team's operating system, not just its org chart.Actionable TakeawaysYou'll learn a practical definition of Team Emotional Intelligence that senior leaders can measure and manage, not a feel-good idea.Hear how to use three buckets of norms to raise decision quality and execution speed. Belonging. Learning together. Outside in.You'll learn a quick baseline method that surfaces blind spots by including every voice, not only senior voices.Hear how to convert meetings into decision labs. Less presenting to impress, more exchanging information and deciding.You'll learn why five-minute debriefs after key moments create rapid learning without adding meeting bloat.Hear how to invite customers, operators, or a friendly skeptic to improve strategy accuracy and foresight.You'll learn why teams that include every voice unlock more talent than teams focused on individual star power.Connect with Vanessa DruskatVanessa Druskat Website Vanessa Drustkat LinkedIn Connect with Mahan Tavakoli: Mahan Tavakoli Website Mahan Tavakoli on LinkedIn Partnering Leadership Website

Jason Sisneros was this week's guest on Success Profiles Radio. He is a business strategist, speaker, and entrepreneur who has built and exited dozens of companies. A high school dropout turned multi-million-dollar dealmaker, he's advised world leaders, celebrities, and CEOs on how to scale with purpose and sell with power.

In addition, we discussed his B2X system for entrepreneurs who want to build, scale, and exit their business; knowing your freedom number for selling it; and having a dream team that is capable of helping you exit. Finally, we talked about how to properly price your business for sale, what to do with your money and time after your business is sold, creating a winning culture and much more.

Renee Troughton: The Hidden Cost of Constant Restructuring in Agile Organizations Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. "Trust and safety are the most fundamental foundations of a team to perform. And so you are just breaking the core of teams when you're doing this." Renee challenges us to look beyond team dysfunction and examine the "dirty little secrets" in organizations—leadership-driven anti-patterns that destroy team performance. She reveals a cyclical pattern of constant restructuring that occurs every six months in many organizations, driven by leaders who avoid difficult performance management conversations and instead force people through redundancy rounds. This creates a cascade of fear, panic, and victim mindset throughout the organization. Beyond restructuring, Renee identifies other destructive patterns including the C-suite shuffle (where new CEOs bring in their own teams, cascading change throughout the organization) and the insourcing/outsourcing swings that create chaos over 5-8 year cycles. These high-level decisions drain productivity for months as teams storm and reform, losing critical knowledge and breaking the trust and safety that are fundamental for high performance. Renee emphasizes that as Agile coaches and Scrum Masters, we often don't feel empowered to challenge these decisions, yet they represent the biggest drain on organizational productivity. Self-reflection Question: Have you identified the cyclical organizational anti-patterns in your workplace, and do you have the courage to raise these systemic issues with senior leadership? Featured Book of the Week: Loving What Is by Byron Katie "It teaches you around how to reframe your thoughts in the day-to-day life, to assess them in a different light than you would normally perceive them to be." Renee recommends "Loving What Is" by Byron Katie as an essential tool for Scrum Master introspection. This book teaches practical techniques for reframing thoughts and recognizing that problems we perceive "out there" are often internal framing issues. Katie's method, called "The Work," provides a worksheet-based approach to introspection that helps identify when our perceptions create unnecessary suffering. Renee also highlights Marshall Rosenberg's "Nonviolent Communication" as a companion book, which uses language to tap into underlying emotions and needs. Both books offer practical, actionable techniques for self-knowledge—a critical skill for anyone in the Scrum Master role. The journey these books provide leads to inner peace through understanding that many challenges stem from how we internally frame situations rather than external reality. We have many episodes on NVC, Nonviolent Communication, which you can dive into and learn from experienced practitioners. [The Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

Will human wisdom ever be able to match the progress of technology?This week, Thomas is joined by Soren Gordhamer, the founder of Wisdom 2.0, for a deep dive into spiritual consciousness, technology, and how we can hold on to what's most essential in life as we face the complex challenges of the digital age.As humans experience unprecedented levels of global connection, we're also facing a crisis of loneliness, fragmentation, and polarization. Soren suspects that our “inner technologies of the heart” (wisdom, compassion, and self-awareness) aren't keeping pace with algorithms, devices, and AI. He and Thomas discuss how regulating our nervous systems and tending to our spiritual practices can help offset the negative effects of technological overload.But individual evolution isn't enough. This conversation explores the critical need for tech creators to infuse their work with ethical values and a collective reigning in of greed and unfettered capitalism to prevent a dysregulated society from misusing super-intelligent technologies.✨ Click here to watch the video version of this episode on YouTube:

Throughout her career, Kris has supported some of Silicon Valley's most influential leaders, including Ev Williams at Twitter and Stewart Butterfield at Slack, guiding them through the evolution from product creator to company leader.

Drawing on those experiences, Kris now coaches founders and CEOs of growth-stage companies, helping them strengthen leadership teams, uncover blind spots, and scale with intention. Kris shares what she learned observing leadership up close, how those lessons shape her coaching today, and why avoiding burnout and setting boundaries are essential for both executives and their teams.

Is AI saving the justice system—or setting it up for disaster? That's the question we're tackling in today's episode of The Brian Nichols Show. Artificial intelligence is everywhere—powering chatbots, writing briefs, even shaping how cases are prosecuted and defended. But is it making things fairer… or just faster? Studio Sponsor: Cardio Miracle - "Unlock the secret to a healthier heart, increased energy levels, and transform your cardiovascular fitness like never before.": CardioMiracle.com/TBNS Former federal prosecutor and Texas defense attorney Lance Kennedy joins Brian to unpack how AI is quietly reshaping the courtroom, from automating legal research to predicting verdicts—and where that could go dangerously wrong. What happens when the “guardrails” come off, and an AI system starts making real-world decisions about guilt, punishment, or even life and death? Brian and Lance dive deep into the tension between innovation and ethics. Is AI a revolutionary tool for justice reform—or a ticking time bomb that could magnify bias and bureaucracy? They explore the scary “trolley problem” of AI-driven enforcement, the outdated state of government tech, and how automation might finally replace the inefficiency and red tape that plague our legal system. But it's not all doom and gloom. Lance explains how AI is actually improving efficiency in law firms, streamlining processes, and freeing up human attorneys to focus on the cases that truly matter. Together, they discuss how smart use of technology can empower—not replace—people, and why understanding AI today will determine who thrives tomorrow. If you've ever wondered how technology, ethics, and justice collide—or what the rise of AI really means for jobs, law, and freedom—this episode is your wake-up call. Watch now and see why the future of justice might depend on how we use AI… not whether we can. ❤️ Order Cardio Miracle (CardioMiracle.com/TBNS) for 15% off and take a step towards better heart health and overall well-being!

In this episode of the Cloud Wars Minute, sponsored by CLOUDVICE, I review the moves of Larry Ellison and Oracle over the past few years in anticipation of what's to come at Oracle AI World 2025.Highlights00:15 — CLOUDVICE is the winner of the 2025 Oracle North America Technology & Cloud AI Innovation Partner Award. “We're honored to receive the 2025 Oracle North America Technology & Cloud AI Innovation Partner Award, a recognition that underscores CLOUDVICE's unwavering commitment to advancing enterprise AI on Oracle Cloud,” said Jaison Correya, CEO of CLOUDVICE. “This achievement reflects the breakthrough projects and real-world transformations we've delivered with Oracle — and at Oracle AI World 2025, we took that vision even further by unveiling CORX, our next-generation platform where AI thinks, Cloud scales, Blockchain verifies, and Robotics acts. It represents the next leap in intelligent automation and the future of real-world autonomy.” Learn more about CLOUDVICE at Oracle AI World 2025 here: CLOUDVICE to Showcase its AI Orchestration and Oracle Cloud Expertise at Oracle AI World 2025.00:26 — This week, at AI World, it will be interesting to see what Oracle and Larry Ellison cook up. The company has two new CEOs, Mike Sicilia and Clay Magouyrk, as Safra Catz has moved over to the role of Executive Vice Chairman. It has lots of new technology, go-to-market plans, partnerships, approaches, strengths, and capabilities.01:00 — Ellison is now in his 49th year of leading Oracle and 82nd year on Earth — and he has been remarkable. His rate of innovation and constructive disruption has only increased this year. And that's what leads me to think that this year, there could be something pretty interesting brewing.01:32 — Over the past couple of years, he has taken on hyperscalers and cloud infrastructure against three of the biggest, most powerful, wealthiest, and most influential companies: Microsoft, Google, and Amazon. And Oracle has been extremely successful at it. He also got these competitors to agree to sell the Oracle database on their clouds to their customers.02:53 — Ellison even wooed OpenAI into a massive, strategic partnership that includes a $300 billion deal to supply infrastructure and AI inference and training. I believe this is the largest business deal ever struck. There might be others, please let me know. But that's what I think is up at the top.03:50 — Reflecting on the arc of what Ellison has done over the last few years, shaking up Oracle and the industry, it makes one think about what he might do at AI World this year. I suggest expecting the unexpected, as he's not one to let things sit still with the rapidly advancing AI Revolution. Visit Cloud Wars for more.

John Baird and Edward Sullivan are world-class executive coaches, best known for their work with Apple's leadership team and top innovators at companies like Nike. Together, they've coached founders and Fortune 10 executives, helping leaders grow from “Chief-Everything-Officer” to visionary CEO. In this episode, they break down the mindsets and tactical shifts needed to scale—whether running a scrappy startup or a global powerhouse. On this episode we talk about: How the best leaders delegate and coach their teams for sustainable growth Shifting from doing it all to long-term strategy (and why it's so hard to let go) The three priorities of a high-functioning CEO: cash, talent, and vision Practical tactics for transitioning out of daily tasks as the business scales Mentorship, coaching, and the difference between advisor and leader mindset Top 3 Takeaways Scaling requires pushing major decisions down into the org—not hoarding them at the top. World-class CEOs invest in talent and vision as much as product or operations. Great leadership isn't just delegation—it's developing decision-makers at every level. Notable Quotes “As quickly as possible, push strategic decisions down into the organization.” “Your best value is spent on cash, talent, and vision—not clinging to every daily detail.” “Coaching your team to see through your lens is how real scale happens.” Connect with John Baird & Edward Sullivan: Website: VelocityCoaching.com ✖️✖️✖️✖️

Women are told to push through, smile, and keep producing—until the body says “enough.” In this Healthy Waves episode, Valerie Pedigo (Renewed Spirit Adventures) and cancer survivor–author Allison Pazuk break down a practical, science-meets-soul path back from burnout and crisis. We cover nervous system regulation you can try today, how community speeds healing, and Allison's BONKERS framework for self-advocacy during cancer care. If you lead, parent, or perform at a high level and feel the crash coming, this conversation gives you grounded next steps—rooted in breathwork, boundaries, and belonging. About the guests : Valerie Pedigo — Founder, Renewed Spirit Adventures. She helps high-achieving women recover from burnout through retreats, coaching, nervous-system-first tools, and an accessible sisterhood community. Allison Pazuk — Former math teacher turned entrepreneur, stage-3 ovarian cancer survivor, and author of Going Bonkers with Cancer. She created the BONKERS framework to help patients become CEOs of their own healing. Key takeaways: Burnout often hides behind “high capacity”; it accelerates when we disconnect from purpose and numb emotions. Community heals faster than isolation. Hearing parallel stories softens defenses, regulates breath, and reduces shame. Nervous system first: move from survival (fight/flight/freeze/fawn) to parasympathetic (rest/restore) before big decisions. Try Valerie's “I Am Held” breath cycle: Inhale nose 4 (“I am”), hold 4, exhale mouth 8 (“held”). Repeat x3 to create pause and aligned action. Identity reclamation is the crux. When women realign with values, work rhythms, relationships, and boundaries change—some things stay, some exit. Allison's BONKERS: Brave questions; Open to research; Non-conforming when needed; Kick-ass self-belief (e.g., “I am enough”); Emotional honesty; Resilience; Self-advocacy as the throughline. Be the CEO of your body: bring questions, ask “yeah, but how does this apply to me?”, review data, and decide collaboratively with clinicians. Mindset practices that compound: daily meditation, honest journaling, coaching/mentorship, and values-based choices that ripple outward to family and teams. Healing isn't perfection—it's consistent returns to breath, boundaries, and belonging.
