What if trends in financial markets are not anomalies, but the natural consequence of how markets function? In this episode, Niels and Richard explore the structural foundations of trend following. Drawing on research spanning 68 futures markets across four decades, Richard explains why markets exhibit persistent trends, fat-tailed returns, and volatility clustering. The discussion moves from oil market shocks to deeper questions about feedback loops, participant behavior, and regime shifts in financial markets. The conclusion is striking: trend following does not rely on fragile patterns. It aligns with fundamental structural properties embedded in how markets actually evolve.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Rich on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 - Introduction to the Systematic Investor Series02:08 - Oil market shock and the structural setup behind the spike06:10 - Why calm markets can hide explosive potential11:47 - How oil shocks ripple through inflation and the global economy15:29 - Why trend followers focus on process, not predictions22:15 - A changing regime that may favor trend following24:43 - The research behind The Fractals of Finance25:25 - Market memory and the meaning of the Hurst exponent31:22 - Why trends are structural rather than random patterns36:25 - Fat tails and why extreme market moves are far more common than expected41:12 - Divergent vs convergent market participants45:29 - The hidden risks in traditional volatility targeting49:33 - Phase transitions and regime shifts in markets55:33 - Why trend following aligns with market structure59:02 - Oil shocks, inflation risks, and the next potential market regimeCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

In this episode, Alan Dunne speaks with Aoifinn Devitt about what it really means to build resilient portfolios in a world of shifting regimes and competing narratives. Drawing on experience across pensions, hedge fund advisory, and private wealth, Aoifinn reflects on how institutional lessons translate to individual investors. The conversation explores the role of diversification, the evolving case for private markets, and the limitations of labels such as hedge funds, factors, or alternative assets. Along the way, they discuss the behavioral traps that influence allocators, the challenges of manager selection, and why outcome based investing may offer a clearer framework for navigating uncertain markets.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Follow Aoifinn on LinkedIn.Episode TimeStamps: 02:16 - Introducing Aoifinn Devitt and her background03:14 - From corporate law to a career in finance05:16 - Institutional vs private wealth portfolio construction09:47 - How macro regimes influence asset allocation12:53 - Rethinking the endowment model and private markets15:32 - Private credit and diversification challenges18:13 - Total portfolio approach vs traditional allocation21:27 - Bonds, equities, and changing correlations27:52 - Concentration risk and the dominance of mega cap stocks37:33 - The evolving role of hedge funds in portfolios42:35 - Gold, commodities, and inflation protection46:23 - Behavioral biases and long term market cycles57:35 - Advice for young professionals entering financeCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

Markets can shift direction faster than the narratives used to explain them. In this episode, Niels and Alan unpack the sharp reversal in bond markets, the geopolitical tensions shaping energy prices, and the role of options flows in keeping equity indices pinned despite rising uncertainty beneath the surface. The conversation moves through recent hedge fund industry discussions in Miami, renewed interest in portable alpha and the total portfolio approach, and the growing influence of AI on economic thinking and policy debates. Along the way, they revisit the core role of trend following in portfolios, explaining why its value often appears precisely when traditional allocations struggle most.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 – Introduction to the Systematic Investor Series01:38 – Bond market reversal and shifting macro narratives03:29 – Options flows and the pinning of equity indices10:13 – AlphaQuest closure and pressures in short term trading strategies15:14 – Crisis alpha and how trend differs from a 60/40 portfolio23:18 – Recent CTA performance and trend opportunities across markets25:23 – Key takeaways from the Miami hedge fund conference37:48 – AI, productivity, and the policy dilemma for the Fed46:40 – Political dynamics behind the potential Fed leadership shift50:13 – Trend following as the “midfield player” in portfolios58:08 – Building a portfolio of CTAs and the challenge of tracking indices01:07:20 – Is CTA beta stable enough to benchmark?Copyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

Cem Karsan sits down with Neil Howe to examine what a true regime shift means for markets and society. Howe argues that we are deep into a Fourth Turning, a generational winter that historically brings institutional fracture, geopolitical strain, and inflation that reshapes debts, assets, and political power. Cem ties that arc to today's realities: the exhaustion of the 40 year tailwind from falling rates, record valuations meeting refinancing risk, and the uncomfortable truth that 60/40 has failed for long stretches before.They explore the growing divide between capital and labor, the pivot from globalization to industrial policy, and the rising appeal of commodities, cash, and convex hedges in a world where outcomes are less linear. Howe also details how his Fourth Turning ETF reflects that view, pairing thematic equities with real assets and disciplined tail protection.This is a conversation about preparing, not predicting, when history starts to rhyme a little louder.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Cem on Twitter.Episode TimeStamps: 01:28 - Introducing Neil Howe and why this conversation matters now03:37 - What the Fourth Turning is and how the cycle works10:26 - “The Fourth Turning Is Here” and the practical question: what do we do?16:42 - Rates, inequality, and why the last 40 years may not repeat20:17 - Inflation as a crisis tool, not a forecasting error26:43 - Options, convexity, and non-linear portfolios in regime change33:31 - The surge into “non-correlated” assets and what it signals39:39 - Market closures, devaluation, and the limits of buy-the-dip history45:28 - Commodities as a missing portfolio leg and the volatility debate48:12 - Howe's ETF framework: themes, commodities, cash, and tail hedges52:43 - Timing the crisis, geopolitics, and the authoritarianism questionCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

In this episode, Alan Dunne and Cem Karsan explore a market that appears calm on the surface yet increasingly unstable underneath. As indices move sideways, they discuss how options flows and structured products are reshaping market behavior, driving rotation rather than direction. From the weakening of former leaders to the rise of defensives, the conversation turns to what these shifts may signal about a broader topping process. They also examine the growing influence of AI narratives, political incentives, and global tensions, not as isolated shocks but as forces building pressure within the system. The result is a discussion about how markets evolve when structure, policy, and sentiment begin to move out of sync.-----50 YEARS OF TREND FOLLOWING BOOK AND BEHIND-THE-SCENES VIDEO FOR ACCREDITED INVESTORS - CLICK HERE-----Follow Niels on Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube or via the TTU website.IT's TRUE ? – most CIO's read 50+ books each year – get your FREE copy of the Ultimate Guide to the Best Investment Books ever written here.And you can get a free copy of my latest book “Ten Reasons to Add Trend Following to Your Portfolio” here.Learn more about the Trend Barometer here.Send your questions to info@toptradersunplugged.comAnd please share this episode with a like-minded friend and leave an honest Rating & Review on iTunes or Spotify so more people can discover the podcast.Follow Alan on Twitter.Follow Cem on X.Episode TimeStamps:00:00 Intro to the Systematic Investor Series00:23 Performance check: CTAs strong, trend tailwinds03:13 Range-bound indices, but big dispersion and rotation03:45 Why options pin the index: dealer flows and vol compression05:42 Dispersion mechanics: idiosyncratic risk, falling correlation07:32 Rotation as a topping process: leaders fade, defensives rise09:54 OPEX and quarterly expiries: why timing windows matter11:56 The March support effect, then weaker flows into April17:02 AI narrative shock: anxiety, backlash, and policy consequences22:32 Populism versus deflation stories: why inflation returns32:43 Gold outlook: secular bull, but expect two-sided volatility45:45 Rates as “tectonic plates”: vol compressed now, release later50:23 Midterms, incentives, and the fight for control57:42 Liquidity loop: markets stop rising, collateral stops expandingCopyright © 2025 – CMC AG – All Rights Reserved----PLUS: Whenever you're ready... here are 3 ways I can help you in your investment Journey:1. eBooks that cover key topics that you need to know about In my eBooks, I put together some key discoveries and things I have learnt during the more than 3 decades I have worked in the Trend Following industry, which I hope you will find useful.

It's cyclical. Relational. Rooted in wholeness rather than striving.In this episode, Jo explores what true transformation looks like for faith-based feminine leaders who want depth, beauty, and generational impact, without burning out or abandoning themselves.You'll learn why change doesn't happen through force or performance… but through relationship, with your body, your emotions, your desires, your nervous system, and with God.This conversation weaves together embodiment practices, nervous system expansion, upper limit awareness, and the dance between conviction and surrender, so you can step into your next season with softness and strength.In this episode:
Have you ever noticed that it's not always the big things that throw you off balance, but the small, familiar habits that quietly pull you away from your center?In this week's episode of the Habit Thrive Podcast, we're having a gentle, reflective conversation about the habits, patterns, routines, and even conversations that may be subtly unsteadying us — often without even realizing it.Building on last week's episode about the habits that steady us, we're exploring the other side of the coin: The everyday habits that feel normal and comfortable, yet leave us feeling tense, depleted, or off-kilter.This is not about judgment or fixing yourself.It's about awareness, curiosity, and choice:Why are unsteadying habits often subtle, familiar, and easy to miss?How is constant news consumption and unbounded screen time keeping our nervous system on high alert?Are you noticing how you feel after scrolling, watching, or listening?How do social conversations rooted in fear, worry, or drama affect your emotional balance?When you utilize your awareness and decide when to engage, listen, shift the topic, or step back, you take control back from those detrimental habits!Remember: Having these habits does not make you wrong!It simply makes you human.The invitation this week is not to change everything, but to notice:What steadies youWhat subtly unsteadies youAnd what small, compassionate shifts might help you feel more groundedOn this episode:Power & Purpose Daily Motivations: A Year of Coming Home to Yourself: Find it hereLoving the show?

If you want to see the future of offshore wind… look to the Netherlands.Off the Dutch coast near IJmuiden… about fifty-threekilometers out to sea… something special is rising from the waves.They call it ECOWENDE.VAN OORD’s installation vessel BOREAS just planted the firstmonopile there on December third. Fifty-one more will follow. And whencomplete… this seven hundred sixty megawatt wind farm will become… themost ecological offshore wind project ever built.Why most ecological?The monopiles come in two sizes. Research shows taller turbines givebirds more room to fly safely between the blades. Some turbines will sportred blades… to make them even more visible to passing flocks. The seabedgets eco-friendly scour protection. And those massive VESTAS fifteen-megawatt turbines? They will sit atop foundations built by SIFand SMULDERS.Power for the Netherlands by end of twenty-twenty-six.Meanwhile… across the North Sea in Scotland…At ABERDEEN Offshore Wind Farm… LIVELINK AEROSPACE just solveda problem that has plagued the industry for years.You see… wind turbines create radar clutter. Their spinning blades confusemilitary and civilian radar systems alike. But LIVELINK’s Air IntelligenceSystem… mounted on the nacelle… eliminates that clutterwithout emitting any signals of its own.The UK’s Department for Energy Security funded the test through the onebillion pound Net Zero Innovation Portfolio.BEN KEENE of LIVELINK says the technology unlocks offshore wind’s fullpotential… while strengthening national security. Clean energy AND defense. Together.But not every nation is celebrating.IRELAND just discovered… its offshore wind dreams may be smaller thanhoped.Energy Minister DARRAGH O’BRIEN receivedconfidential maps this spring. The assessment initially found potential forforty-eight gigawatts offshore.The realistic number?Between three and eighteen gigawatts.Deep waters. Shipwrecks. Arms dumps. Undersea cables. Protectedhabitats. All these stand in the way.The Irish government had targeted five gigawatts by twenty-thirty. Theyface fines of up to twenty billion euros if they miss their climate goals.Social Democrats spokeswoman JENNIFER WHITMORE says she issurprised detailed mapping took this long.Four years from the deadline… and they are only now learning which siteswill not work.Down Under… the news is worse.AGL Energy just cancelled GIPPSLAND SKIES… a two-and-a-half gigawattoffshore wind project in Victoria, Australia.That makes three offshore wind farms scrapped in recent months offAustralia’s south coast. German company RWE abandonedits two-gigawatt KENT project in October. BLUEFLOAT ENERGY droppedGIPPSLAND DAWN in July. AGL says it will focus on onshore wind… batteries… and pumped hydroinstead.But there is bright news from Eastern Europe.GE VERNOVA just signed a deal with GREENVOLT POWER to supplyforty-two turbines for the GURBANESTI wind farm inROMANIA.Each turbine… six-point-one megawatts. Combined with another recentproject… these two farms will bring five hundred megawatts online…powering more than one hundred ten thousand Romanian homes.Turbines start arriving in twenty-twenty-six.And in British Columbia… Premier DAVID EBY has a fight on hishands.A twenty-five percent tariff on imported wind towers threatens BC HYDRO’selectricity supply.PATRICIA LIGHTBURN of the Canadian Renewable Energy Associationsays the tariff could derail projects already announced. BC HYDRO iscounting on those wind farms to close an impending power gap.Canada’s Energy Regulator expects wind to fill seventy percent ofrenewable demand growth through twenty-thirty.The tariff? Nobody saw it coming.Now… for those of you heading to Edinburgh this week…The UK Offshore Wind Supply Chain Spotlight takes place Thursday. JOEL SAXUM and I will be there… meeting with innovating companies andentrepreneurs who are building the future of this industry.If you are attending… come say hello. We'd love to hear from youAnd that is the state of the wind energy industry on December 8, 2025.Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Energy Pocast.
In this Thanksgiving reflection, Michael invites you into the liminal space—the quiet between the notes where meaning, magic, and clarity live.Drawing on a powerful future-self meditation and a week-long vision fast on California's Lost Coast, he shares how deep listening changes the way we perceive the world—and ourselves. From native traditions of fasting for vision to the way nature sharpens our senses when we strip away noise, Michael explores how true gratitude arises when we become receptive rather than directive.You'll hear:Why gratitude is more than a practice—it's a signal-clearingHow the “space between the notes” (Debussy/Miles Davis) reveals the essence of lifeWhat a future-self meditation can teach us about legacyHow nature attunes the nervous system to clarityThe magic that arrives when we enter the world with reverence and listeningWhy real wealth is time, health, sunlight, breath, and presenceFrom Ubud's morning rain to bathing in the Lost Coast waterfalls, Michael recounts the moments where the world speaks—if we are quiet enough to listen.On this day of thanks, this episode is an invitation to:Put your feet on the earthLet your breath slowListen for what your life is asking of youAnd remember that gratitude is the root of a life well-livedSending you presence, warmth, and deep gratitude.Happy Thanksgiving.

We are more connected today than we ever have been. Digital Devices, the web, and social media keep us in constant contact with updates, breaking news, and everyone's latest activities and accomplishments. We are able to witness both the best and sometimes the worst of people, many of which we don't even know.And wile there are many benefits to being able to connect through technology, there are also a few devastating drawbacks including the cost of comparison!We are in a series entitled "Discovering You." The point and purpose of this series is to help you discover you - the real authentic you and the one God created you to be. In the first podcast episode, I talked about the essence of your identity including who or what we mistakenly tie our identity to versus where we should actually anchor our identity.In this episode, we are going to cover the cost of comparison, and yes...there is a significant cost to be paid when we spend our time, energy, and emotions comparing ourselves to others. The cost of comparison is the thief of joy! Show Notes:"The Truth," song by Megan Woods"The truth is I am my Father's childI make Him proud and I make Him smileI was made in the image of a perfect KingHe looks at me and wouldn't change a thingThe truth is I am truly lovedBy a God who's good when I'm not good enoughI don't belong to the lies, I belong to YouAnd that's the truth"7 Costs of Comparison:TimeMental and Emotional EnergyUnnecessary AnxietyMisaligned PurposeThe Wrong GoalsDistracted FocusLack of ImpactInstead of Comparing, Do These Things Instead:Be grateful. Psalm 139:13-14 says that God created you, and you are "fearfully and wonderfully made." We have been created with great care and reverence by God, who designed us with unique qualities and a specific purpose. We need to go to God first to gain clarity about ourselves. I love this quote from Louie Giglio in his great devotional book Grace and Glory:"God made you with uniqueness and specificity. He knows your talents and gifting. He wove them into you. He knows your strengths and weaknesses. He wrote down all the days of your life in His book before you were born. He knows how you're wired, what you enjoy, and what brings you to life because He made you in His image, and He invites you to be a daughter or son of His kingdom.You don't need affirmation or acceptance from others around you - you have everything you'll ever need from your perfect and loving heavenly Father. You can willingly take up humility in every interaction around you." - Louie Giglio, Grace and GloryWe need to trust God's feedback and guidance. We need to embrace His love for us.Psalm 139:16 says: "Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them." God is the Creator of us and the maker of momentsWe need to know His purpose and follow His path for us. We can seek Him and get answers to the key questions in life: Why am I here? Where do you want me to go? And what do you want me to doWe need to stop comparing ourself or our journey to other people and their journeys. This includes appreciating our strengths and our quirks. Change the words and your mindset from "If Only" to "I'm grateful"...and from "I have to" to "I get to."We need be faithful with our calling, even if others don't understand it.We need to ask for, surrender, and submit to God's leadership in our lives.We need to stay focused on the mission He gave us, not the one He gave to someone else.We need to trust that the same God who created and called us...will equip us. Comparison can cause you to feel inadequate, but God will provide everything you need...to do the things He has called you to do and truly become the person He created you to be.New Episodes of the Monday Morning Moments Podcast are released every Monday on your favorite podcast platforms as well as on YouTube.

What if it all worked out? What if you took a chance and it was better than you imagined?Today I want to introduce you to Ornella a human that chooses to hold on to her sweet side. I've found parts of society tries to hold back and at times even criticize women who lead with gentleness; truth is it is a strength to show someone a softness, a smile, and the sweetness in us first, and I'm so grateful for women like Ornella who do just thatOrnella is one that will see you, make you feel welcome, but do so with a genuine and gentle spirit, giving you space to be yourself but letting you know “you are welcome here” in how she interacts with youWe chat about what it means to be a mix of an introvert and an extrovert, how maybe it isn't all so black and white as we used to be told. We talk about how the presence of one person in her life can calm her and the value of health to know those she loves, and herself can continue to pursue whatever life puts in front of herShe shares how being bullied as a kid impacted her as an adult, how it led her to question and learn to accept parts of herself, and how it causes her to seek to see another with intention We chat about the joy in time spent with others, how opening up our home and what it means to have that space to share with others, how seeing someone's needs and what will bring them joy beyond a moment allows others to feel cared for, and how accepting the right to our own happiness is enough to pursue the life you dream of Ornella is one that I could sit and chat with all day, someone who reminds me it's ok to just be myself, someone who will ask with a desire to know, and someone who will remind you It's ok to be soft and sweet So tune in and meet Ornella, and be reminded that who you are is worth all the happiness in the world, that it's ok to not have it all figured out, and to give grace to those who love youAnd to you Ornella thank you, thank you for taking the time to share a blanket in the sand, for seeing me, for reminding me the joy it brings you to have friends in your home, for the way you honestly shared about your life, and the honor it is to get to know you. Can't wait to see you again soon my friend and don't ever lose your sweet spirit

294 – Are you tired of all the theological debates?Social media is full of people from different churches "explaining" why their theology is right and everyone else's theology is wrong. The basic problem is they are defining what it means to be a true Christian by doctrinal beliefs instead of actually living the teachings of Jesus in their daily lives.This mistake has gone on for at least 1,700 years. It's time to stop the theological debate mindset, trying to prove you are right.In this week's episode I talk about:The attitude behind this urge to debate and condemn everyone who disagrees with you theologically It's not how Jesus wants you to share your faithHow to interact with someone who's trying to debate with youAnd most importantly, a more effective way to share your faithJesus didn't prove he was the Messiah by his words. He told people to look at what he was doing, because what he did was fulfilling the Messianic prophecies.We need to follow his example. Quit trying to prove you are a Christian, or disprove someone else is, based on doctrines and theology. Let people see how you are following in Jesus's footsteps in healing and blessing mankind.

It's an art form, but it's not rocket science. It's courageous, but it's not not cushy or comforting. And it's saying no in meaningful ways, rather than saying yes to everything.Psychological safety is as much about what it's not, as what it is. It's a phenomenon that's nuanced, ephemeral and often misconceived, asking all of us - facilitator and participant - to hold out our arms to discomfort, take risks, make mistakes and dance in our humanness.But to achieve it, and then keep it alive for everyone, takes great self-awareness, emotional regulation - and for us facilitators to feel safe first. Join me for a special solo episode - an hour dedicated entirely to the art of psychological safety!Find out about:My 4 practical tips for leaders to create psychological safety around youAnd 4 ways leaders can build psychological safety for themselvesBeyond the buzzword, what does it really mean to achieve psychological safety?Why small mistakes can evolve into bigger risks when safety is absentMaking every voice count, and feel safe, with the power of using “Yes, and ___”The importance of cultivating your own emotional literacy and setting boundariesDon't miss the next episode: subscribe to the show with your favourite podcast player.Links:Watch the video recording of this episode on YouTube.Connect to Myriam Hadnes:LinkedInWebsiteSupport the show✨✨✨Subscribe to our newsletter to receive a free 1-page summary of each upcoming episode directly to your inbox, or explore our eBooks featuring 50-episode compilations for even more facilitation insights.

What makes someone worth listening to?Today I want to introduce you to Olumide, and while I could say he's worth listening to because he's an olympian, because he's experienced grief and learned how to grow through it, or because he comes from a culture that maybe you have never heard of or one that maybe your history connects to….I could say those things make him worth listening to, but they aren't…Olumide is someone that isn't chasing, not chasing the most popular person in the room, not chasing a title, but someone who is simply, human; and in our world today this is a quality that in my opinion is what makes him worth listening toWe chat about what it was like being the youngest sibling in a Nigerian family, the rich culture and the loss part of that family at a young age.
