Podcasts about younger self

Have you ever caught yourself trying to explain yourself or perhaps felt you were trying to be convinced out of your decision when you were certain of your choice or stance?Over explaining ourselves is more common than you think. Not only is it superfluous, but it's a liberating feeling having the self confidence to own your own decisions and choices without having the need to explain yourself. Moreover, studies in psychology tells us that over explaining and over sharing are rooted in past trauma. In this episode, host Chris Oh explores her findings of how over sharing and over explaining are linked to past trauma, how we can catch ourselves from the act of over sharing and over explaining and why it's so important not to in order to gain more inner peace.

Mo asks Debby Moorman: If you could record a business development tip and send it to your younger self, what would it be? The bottomline is the idea of sales can be scary because we usually think of our worst sales experience and extrapolate that to everything. Debby's advice to her younger self would be to take a breath, and realize that it's all about meeting people and getting to know them, then helping them solve their problems. Changing the label from “sales” to “helping people and solving their needs” is a powerful mindset shift. People usually don't realize that they are selling everyday, they just don't label it that way. If you substitute “solve problems” for “sales”, you're probably doing it all the time. Debby tells the story of an earlier experience where her job was traditional sales, literally going door to door, and how by simply asking questions and identifying the needs of the company, she turned a no into one of the biggest sales of the hotel she was working for. Everybody already sells, they just don't call it that. When you substitute solving problems, you realize that you're already great at what you do, and if you plug in a process like the Snowball System, you can keep getting better at it.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com debby.moorman@willistowerswatson.com Debby Moorman on LinkedIn

Mo asks Jeff Berardi: If you could record a video and send it back to your younger self, what would it say? Jeff would tell himself to ask more questions and to be more intentional on directing the conversation to the ways he could help the other party. Asking questions and getting the client engaged is much more beneficial than just telling people what you do. A lot of consultants make the mistake of just wanting to showcase their expertise, but the counterintuitive part is that by getting the other person to talk about what's happening on their end they view you as having that expertise. There are three big benefits of asking questions: they light up the pleasure center of the person being asked, you learn their perspectives in their specific words, and it highly correlates to likeability. Asking questions releases the pressure you have when you assume you know what the client needs and then telling them how you can help without really understanding the situation. The end goal of your questions is to understand their needs and how you can address them. The essence of the questions is to build trust and also to help the client understand what they need because often they haven't defined the problem precisely on their own. If you uncover their needs over the course of the conversation in an authentic and meaningful way that shows you understand their issues and you have the skill set to help them, it feels less like you aren't trying to sell them something and more like you are trying to simply help them.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com jberardi@baretzbrunelle.com Jeff Berardi on LinkedIn Jeff Berardi's Bio

Mo asks Maria Kelly: If you could record a video around business development and give it to your younger self, what would it say? The short answer would be to record Mo's training. The longer answer is to start thinking about business development much earlier. Do not be afraid to reach out and ask for advice. Over the last 12 months, Maria has read so many books that would have helped her tremendously when she was younger. Highly skilled specialists often struggle with asking for advice, but it's one of the most powerful things you can do to create bonds with people. The more you communicate, the more things come your way. Asking people for advice makes people feel good, and other things can come up during the conversation that can change the way you think. One of the ways that Maria had built relationships with clients was by asking them their advice on who she should hire and they loved the idea of having input. The worst that can happen is that the other person will thank you for thinking of them but they're too busy to help. Start with something small that doesn't require too much of the other person, or by asking someone you are fairly confident will say yes no matter what. When you're trying a new skill, start small and start safe. If you have a business strategy that you aren't sure of, reach out to your clients and run it by them first. It shows that you value them as a client and their opinion on what you do. There are a lot more opportunities than you think that don't fit into the traditional client opportunity conversation box. Just being human is a simple thing anyone can do. Unstructured moments used to happen naturally in the past, but it's okay to go out of your way to try and create more of those moments. Business development is a learnable skill, and the sooner you embrace it the more it will impact your career. Embrace who you are and bring that to the business development table, because that is your strongest tool. Your authentic self is the foundation for all the other business development skills.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com askmariakelly.com Maria Kelly on LinkedIn

Mo asks Scott Winter: If you could send a video back in time specifically on business development, what would it say? The first thing Scott would say to his younger self would be to buy as much Bitcoin as possible. Seriously though, he would try to help his younger self get past the limiting belief that sales is a bad thing. No matter who you are, you have to sell. Do what you have to do to learn that skill sooner in a way that brings you enjoyment, because it's going to serve you for the rest of your life. Do something you're passionate about, and embrace the idea of business development. If you only have deep expertise, no one will know you exist and nothing will get done. If you only know sales, you will never do anything really meaningful. When you have both you can change the world. Deep expertise gives you the foundation for building trust and confidence with a prospect that you can actually help solve their problem, and you can use that to inform your ability to communicate that well. Even now, Scott struggles with how to structure emails perfectly and doing the right amount of outreach. You don't need to be perfect, you just need to put in the work consistently and genuinely care about the prospect or client's outcome. Just like sports or any skill that you want to improve, business development takes practice.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com scott@index.io Scott Winter on LinkedIn

Mo asks Brent Atkins: If you could record a video on business development and send it to your younger self, what would you say? In the early days of Brent's business development career, he did things very differently. The first thing he would say is to listen. Brent hears more things now during the course of a conversation with active listening, which is the opposite from how his younger self operated. There is an impulse when you're young and fresh to tell everyone what you know, but listening and asking questions are how you really learn how to sell. Every product or service has multiple ways you can position it to win. If you listen, you can be much more effective in that effort. Brent is a student of business development even now. The first 21 days of a relationship are extremely important to solidify a bond. Reaching out to continue the conversation and creating that bond allows you to come back months or years later and pick up that conversation in the same way you would with an old friend. The final tip would be to build your brand. People are taught sales skills and usually want to apply them the exact way they are taught. Take what you're doing and make it yours. Whatever sales skills you are working on, you need to make them authentically yours for them to be effective. The great business development rainmakers never stop learning. Brent is always looking to improve and work on his skills, especially in leverage tools like MIT's and the Protemoi list.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com brent.atkins@progyny.com Brent Atkins on LinkedIn

Paul Frank Martino was born in Brooklyn, New York in 1971, the eldest of two boys born to Italian immigrant parents, one of which came to the United States of America from the Molise Region of Italy, and the other came to the United States of America from the Naples (Campania) Region of Italy.  Paul was raised as a practicing Roman Catholic in the town of Ronkonkoma, on Long Island, in the state of New York, and graduated from Connetquot High School, in Bohemia, New York in 1989.  He graduated from Dowling College, in Oakdale, New York with a B.A. in Natural Sciences and Mathematics in 1993.  He earned his Master's in Exercise Physiology from the Human Performance Laboratory at Ball State University, Muncie, Indiana in 1996, and later earned his Ph.D. in Physiology from the Medical College of Wisconsin in 2006.  After earning, his Ph.D., Paul moved on to a two year American Heart Association, post-doctoral fellowship at Wright State University at the Boonshoft School of Medicine in the Department of Neuroscience, Cell Biology, and Physiology, studying the neuro-physiological effects of carbon dioxide regulation in the brain. After his fellowship, he moved on to a short stay in the biomedical/pharmaceutical industry as a study director designing research studies for evaluating and understanding potential new drugs. During his stay in industry, he also simultaneously managed and mentored a small group of laboratory research technicians.  He learned a great deal about managing and mentoring people in his short stint in industry.  He also learned that the business side of research is very different from research in the academic world. Since 2009, he has been a full-time tenure-track faculty member in the Biology Department at Carthage College, a small Lutheran affiliated liberal arts college in Kenosha, Wisconsin.  He was awarded the prestigious “Teacher of the Year Award in 2017,” for his outstanding teaching of Anatomy and Physiology to upper-classmen from across the Carthage campus. He currently leads the Carthage Biology Department as an Associate Professor and Chair.  In addition, he also holds several other academic positions, which include Associate Adjunct Professor of Physiology at Medical College of Wisconsin, as well as a faculty member of the Stress and Motivated Institute (SMBI).  He loves teaching and mentoring college students (Nate was one of my students.) to help them find their way in life, and has mentored 80 plus undergraduates in his active and collaborative research lab at Carthage.  He has co-authored 21 peer-reviewed scientific articles on strength training, glucose metabolism, respiratory neurophysiology, sleep, antioxidants, and behavioral inhibition. His current research, which is in part a collaboration with Justin Miller and several other Carthage colleagues' focuses on the physiology of college age students who have the behavioral temperament, called behavioral inhibition.  This book signals a new stage of his professional life and one where he hopes to help even more people navigate the struggles of life and to succeed. opphysiology@gmail.com    Doktesinc@gmail.com   https://www.facebook.com/LettersToOurYoungerSelves   https://www.amazon.com/s?k=letters+to+our+younger+selves&crid=16EJYQS95FCKS&sprefix=letters+to+our+younger+%2Caps%2C187&ref=nb_sb_ss_ts-doa-p_1_23  https://www.barnesandnoble.com/s/letters%20to%20our%20younger%20selves

269: Taking Notes on the Changing Work Environment with Phil Libin   Summary   Welcome back to the podcast!   We are the Startup Junkies, and this is episode 269. Our hosts for this episode contain the usual Jeff Amerine, Caleb Talley, and Davis McEntire and are also joined by the prodigal son himself, Matthew Ward! We had the pleasure of talking to Phil Libin who is a serial entrepreneur and just a fun guy! We laughed, chatted, and got to dive into his latest ventures, Mmhmm and All Turtles.    Don't miss this one, tune in!   Shownotes   (1:31) Introducing Phil Libin  (3:33) Why move to Bentonville, Arkansas? (6:41) Genesis and future casting for Mmhmm (12:24) All Turtles Philosophy (18:15) Out of Office vs. In-Person Benefits (21:08) Commentary of Evolving VC World (30:37) Paradigm Shifts in Apple, AI, and Machine Learning.  (35:39) Advice to Younger Self (38:13) Wrap Up   Links Jeff Amerine Davis McEntire Caleb Talley Phil Libin Mmhmm All Turtles   Quotes   "Quality of life improves quality of work and quality of work improves quality of life." (8:16) - Phil Libin   "We're never going back to anything, we're going forward. We're not going back to the way things were... We are going forward to the way things should be." (19:13) - Phil Libin   "I care about brilliant people having a chance to show their brilliance and make high impact products. And I don't want them to waste their time making startups first." (25:25)       Taking Notes on the Changing Work Environment with Phil Libin   "Quality of life improves quality of work and quality of work improves quality of life." (8:16) - Phil Libin   Pil Libin arrived in the United States at age eight. He and his family were refugees from what was the Soviet Union at the time. Upon leaving what is now St. Petersburg, he has indeed become a pioneer of the startup world.    As a programmer with VC and five startups under his belt, we were excited to sit and talk with him. After growing businesses from coast to coast, he found himself fleeing San Francisco and ending up in Bentonville, Arkansas, with his latest two ventures: Mmhmm and All Turtles.    From Joke To Product The genesis of Mmhmm began as a bit of a joke. During the plethora of video calls within the past two years, Phil started to play around with slides, fake backgrounds, and other special effects. The snowball effect was then named Mmhmm. When seen by outsiders, this product mainly used internally was encouraged to become an actual software.   Mmhmm is following the out-of-office movement. Though there are many opinions on the transition to remote working, Phil believes in the upside of it. The freedom that employees have when working from home can be cultivated and expressed in a better workflow. Working remotely allows people to be intentional about where they want to live, what kind of neighborhoods they want to live in, or even how they spend time with their family! If one has the tools to allow working remotely to improve their quality of life, that can enhance their quality of work. The point is, quality of life improves the quality of work and vice versa.    Out Of Office Movement The vicious cycle of the office is what this software is up against. The concept of the office is one of the most significant factors in a low quality of life, Phil claims. Whether it be the commute, the hours of workflow, the inability to move or plane, or seek health and wellness with its demanding schedule, having a building can cause more problems than solutions.    The pandemic accelerated the inevitable out-of-office movement. For the first time, a few hundred million people could choose where to live and what is the best life for them independent of where their work is located. The effects have been profound on everything, even beyond workflow. Phil explains that this out-of-office movement can benefit and change everything from society, education, healthcare, recreation, and travel to mentorship, friendships, and family relationships.     "If you want to do anything else, if you want to have time for art or music or health, that all gets pushed out to the weekend or vacations." (9:36) - Phil Libin    Seeing this opportunity for growth, Phil wanted in on any project that could continue to exacerbate and improve the out-of-office movement. Even the language behind the campaign is essential to him. They do not consider themselves remote but distributed. The connotations of loneliness or isolation are now pushed towards, delegated, and intentionally placed elsewhere. Words give superpowers, he goes on to explain.    "The internet is distributed, it's not remote. It's distributed because being distributed gives a system so many fundamental advantages. It gives a company so many advantages, it gives a life so many advantages." (12:00) - Phil Libin   startupjunkie.org wlj.com

Mo asks Cannon Carr: If you could record a video about business development and send it back to your younger self, what would it say? Cannon would record a few simple vignettes, mainly focused on the why of business development as well as the storytelling, patterns and habits involved. The first one would basically be a quote from Maya Angelou. “I learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.” Following videos would involve some inspiring Rocky music, Steve Jobs' iPhone keynote speech, and an interview with Jimmy Fallon and a guest creating something fun together. So many people struggle with business development because they believe that they didn't get into their profession to sell. Playful exploration and spontaneity can make things fun, but there has to be purpose involved. Sales have none of those elements. If you can build that kind of fun energy into what you do, you can deepen the relationship, provide value, and grow your business at the same time. Don't be afraid to have fun and be vulnerable. Making your Most Important Things into a game can add another level of motivation and enjoyment to building business development habits that lead to growth. It's about creating the right behaviors. You can't control the outcome, only what you put into it. Cannon's firm has an internal coach to help keep everyone on track and doing proactively helpful things for the marketplace, knowing that the revenue will follow.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com ccarr@cornercap.com cornercap.com
