A Love Letter to Human Potential with Kate Robinson Mar 09, 2022

Show notes

Kate Robinson is a writer, speaker, and co- founder of a number of initiatives dedicated to the legacy of her father, Sir Ken Robinson. On the show, Kate shares some backstory on her father's life, and the journey that led to her completing his final piece of work. In Sir Ken and Kate's perspectives, there are 3 myths regarding creativity that hinder our advancement as a collective.

Creativity is about a certain group of people, "the creatives"
Creativity is about certain things/subjects (music, writing, art, dance, etc)
You're either creative or you're not

The truth is, creativity lives in each of us, it is a muscle that can be trained and strengthened, and there is space for creativity in every activity. Sir Ken and Kate define creativity as "the process of having original ideas that have value." It is an ongoing process of idea creation and evaluation, and it can be applied to anything.

True change comes from those who dare to imagine. Creativity comes from within, and progress comes from diversity of thought. Identify your passion, tap into your creativity, and encourage others to do the same.

Joy is the Way Mar 07, 2022

Show notes

Do you have a big dream, but you're having trouble making progress?

There is one simple thing you can do to start moving, and re-train your brain to operate autonomously, prioritize joy. Once you make this contract with yourself to pursue joy on a regular basis, you start to create inertia.

So how do you get started? Maybe you don't know what action to take? I believe that a hugely under valued element of the equation is joy. You don't need to wait for lighting to strike. You don't need a master grand plan. Just start doing more of the stuff that make you feel more alive, and less of the things that block you or don't serve you.

In this episode I share a few thoughts on how prioritizing joy on a daily basis can have tremendous positive impacts in other area of life.

So are YOU following joy? Share this message with a friend who needs to hear it.

How to Build Confidence and Be More Social with Vanessa Van Edwards Mar 02, 2022

Show notes

Are there certain traits that make someone charismatic? Why do some people captivate a room, while others struggle to manage a small meeting? Why do some ideas spread, but other good ones fall by the wayside?

These are the questions that bestselling author and human behavior expert Vanessa Van Edwards seeks to answer in her new book, "Cues: Master the Secret Language of Charismatic Communication."

If we're often overlooked for job opportunities or have our ideas ignored, we should pay closer attention to the "tiny" signals we send to others through our body language, facial expressions, word choice, and vocal inflection.

Vanessa believes these "cues" have a huge impact on how we, and our ideas, come across and can either undermine or reinforce our message.

In today's episode, I talk with her about her book—and how we can convey likeability, trust, and power in every interaction.

Over 54 million people have seen Vanessa on YouTube and in her viral TED Talk. Her behavior research lab, Science of People, has been featured on Fast Company, Inc., USA Today, CNN, CBS, and Entrepreneur Magazine.

Here are some highlights from our conversation:

When we meet someone, over 80% of our judgments are based on two traits: warmth and competence.
The faster we can answer the following questions, the faster we can connect with people: Can I trust you? Can I rely on you?
Even in the virtual world, we can communicate effectively and give and receive social cues.
Myth: cues are less important on a video call.
Pro tip: Stand more than 18 inches away from the camera in an online meeting to avoid appearing to invade participants' intimate space. This helps others trust us more easily and see more cues, especially gestures, which is important because people use gestures to get additional information.

Why I Don't Set Resolutions (and What I Do Instead) Feb 28, 2022

Show notes

Here we are at the end of February - how are those New Years Resolutions going? 😁

There is so much hype built into our society around resolutions. We often associate them with huge goals, and things we want to accomplish, rather than behaviors we want to embody. If 64% of all people fail their resolutions within one month of starting, what is the common factor that makes them so hard to stick to?

Over the years, I developed another method to review my habits and set new ones. In this episode, I share my method along with some new habits I set for myself in 2022.

If you've struggled in the past with goal setting or just want to try another way to look at your habits, this behavior oriented system might be for you.

Trauma is Wreaking Havoc in Our Lives with Gabby Bernstein Feb 23, 2022

Show notes

Deep in the grips of drug addiction, Gabby Bernstein was sitting in her beaten-up white Toyota Corolla playing a cassette again and again and listening to a psychic saying to her, "You have two choices in this lifetime: You could stay addicted—and that's not going to be good—or you can get clean and make a major impact on the world." In that moment, she couldn't contemplate what it would be like to get out of bed later that day, let alone make a major impact on the world. But she kept listening.

Fast forward almost two decades, Gabby has written her ninth book, Happy Days, in which she guides readers down a path where they can go from trauma to profound freedom and inner peace.

She's living proof that it's possible to overcome the challenges of addiction, trauma, and depression and find hope again.

Payal Kadakia: Take the Leap, Start a Business Feb 16, 2022

Show notes

Payal Kadakia studied operations research and economics at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but she was always determined to keep dance in her life—both during her college years and her professional career. She was three years old when she fell in love with dance because it offered her a place to center herself, be creative, and be herself. The corporate world provided Payal with a safety net, but one day she decided it was time to build a business around her lifelong passion.

The result, ClassPass—a membership program offering access to an extensive network of wellness and fitness experiences—became a global sensation. The platform became the first unicorn of the decade, and Mindbody, one of the leading wellness technology platforms, acquired it in late 2021. Prior to the acquisition, ClassPass members had completed more than 100 million hours of training at 30,000 partner studios in over 30 countries.

"Founders who think in a creative mindset are the ones who are able to build these new blueprints for the world." - Payal Kadakia

Here are some highlights from today's episode:

[02:40] How ClassPass was born

How to Stop Procrastinating and Start Executing Feb 13, 2022

Show notes

Are you getting in your own way?

This week I'm diving into two questions from the community. The first question involves knowing how to choose which projects to commit to, and how to stay focused even when new opportunities present themselves. My top level advice:

Identify what YOU care about and what you want to stand for
Don't spend too much time worrying what other people are doing
Experiment and play
Find an accounta-bili-buddy
Learn through action
Execute on ideas

The second question we get into the art of storytelling. Whether we like it or not, when we're telling stories, there is a piece of ourselves that is present. Even if the goal is to be an unbiased 3rd party, how you tell the story will impact how it's percieved. Embrace your own unique perspective. It can be the difference between good and great storytelling.

Enjoy!
