Ep #306: Life is full of choices. You choose what to do. You choose how to react. You choose how to respond. You choose what to do with your time. Sobriety does not promise anything other than an opportunity to better your life without the weight of a hangover, daily addictive behaviors, and the constant rationalizing of your actions as being okay even though you know they are not okay. You can say, "I can't," all you want, and that is still not going to change the fact that bills are due, people are relying on you, and your life is literally happening right before your very eyes - every single second of the day. You make choices, you make decisions, and you either take action or you stand still and deliberate - and while there is an optimal time for reflection and deliberation, at some point, you must take a step, you must take action. Often, any action is better than no action because, without action, you do not get an outcome that gives you a hint at whether you are going in a desirable direction or not. You choose. Every day, you choose what your life will be and become, and no one can take these actions for you. Nobody can lift the weights, eat healthier, or do the work for you, and you get the rewards. The life you desire will come off the metaphorical and often very real sweat off your brow. Choose wisely - it's only your life we're talking about here. Just hit play, and let's dive in with open minds and hearts—you are in the right place, at the right time—right now. ******************************************** PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, FOLLOW, RATE, AND REVIEW my show on your preferred streaming app. Every little bit helps this show reach those who need it most. ******************************************** Please support the show (I'm a one-man band over here) Free ebooks and links for coaching and the like: https://stan.store/jessemogle Buy me a coffee to keep me going:  http://buymeacoffee.com/jessemogle Support me on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/jessemogle ******************************************** Website: https://www.jessemogle.com Please email me: fromsobrietytorecovery@gmail.com ******************************************** Complimentary 30-minute call with me: callcoachjesse.com Tik Tok: http://www.tiktok.com/@jessemogle Instagram: https://instagram.com/fromsobrietytorecovery LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jessemogle/ From Sobriety to Recovery Podcast: https://www.jessemogle.comfromsobrietytorecovery/ College Success Habits Podcast: https://www.jessemogle.com/collegesuccesshabitspodcast/ ********************************************  Join the From Sobriety to Recovery Tribe: https://www.jessemogle.com/thehub/ ********************************************   It is time.

Rashida Tlaib (MI-12) and Cori Bush (MO-1), the most recent South Carolina primary polls for President Trump and Nikki Haley – and much more.

In its quest to combat inflation the Federal Reserve has seemingly done everything in its power to engineer a recession, which would throw millions of people out of work. Rather than question the Fed's actions, mainstream economists cheered them on, claiming that we need multiple months of high unemployment to bring inflation down. But do we really need to immiserate America's working class in order to save the economy? Today's guest, Arnab Datta, and his colleagues at Employ America are producing research that suggests we should instead be using macroeconomic policies to steer the economy to high employment and robust wage growth—which would reduce inequity, spur economic development, and expand the availability of good-paying jobs for all Americans. Arnab Datta serves as the Senior Counsel for Employ America, which is an organization focused on economic policy research and advocacy that prioritizes full employment, wage growth, and economic stability. Employ America seeks to influence economic policy discussions and shape the narrative around employment and economic well-being.

On this episode of Redefining Work, I'm joined by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation's Dianna Langenburg and Debbie Green. We discuss their open-source racial equity toolkit and how HR practitioners can use it to drive equity at work.

Sean Follin is the Founder and Principal Consultant of Encounter Strategies, based in Fort Collins, Colorado but serving clients nationally, and occasionally internationally.  He's a great example of Fort Collins as a choice city - if you can choose to live anywhere, where do you choose?  (It turns out - in my neighborhood!)  Sean is a remarkably experienced strategic planner for his age, and worked his way up through two consulting organizations in Washington DC before making his way to Colorado.  Sean's mentor in the craft is Chris McGoff, Founder of The Clearing, Inc. and author of the book “The Primes - How Any Group Can Solve Any Problem”.  Sean's practice is built on the foundations outlined in The Primes, and enhanced by their upfront data collection with clients, mostly professional services businesses.  We delve into the fundamentals of strategic planning in this episode, which overlaps significantly with conflict resolution, and I explore with Sean his work with a non-profit based in Haiti which has assembled the most important and influential business leaders of the nation.  Representing over 60% of the GDP, the hope for this group is to forge a new vision for Haiti, and lead the way to renewal of law and order and functional governance.  Sean and I were only recently introduced, but we've enjoyed every minute, and I'm excited to see where his significant skills might impact our LoCommunity in the months and years ahead.  We went almost 3 hours in this episode, but there's loads of great business insight, and many great stories.  And, we put a nice dent in a fresh bottle of tequila, so the conversation flows freely and sometimes gets silly, so please tune in and enjoy my conversation with Sean Follin.  Episode Sponsor: InMotion, providing next-day delivery for local businesses.
