#62 T's Take on Dating Jan 19, 2025

Show notes

Tara Martin joins me to discuss her transition to single life and how she is adding more fun, creativity, and variety to her social life with the concept of ABC date nights. She also discusses becoming more empowered to go out and experience life on her own terms and to feel comfortable dining and doing activities on her own. Dave adds in some thoughts on injecting randomness by incorporating dice rolling as discussed by Cyan Bannister on the Tim Ferriss Show.

Show notes

The secret is out!! In an epic collaboration between Dave Burgess Consulting, Inc. and Ron Clark, we have released his latest book, #BeOnePercentBetter: Surpisingly Simple Ways to Transform Your School!!!
It was an honor to not only publish Ron's work, but also to write the foreword. In this episode, I read my foreword and hopefully whet your appetite for reading this project. It is the ultimate book study book...and just flat-out super practical and applicable across your entire system.
Let us know what you think using the #DaveBurgessShow and
#BeOnePercentBetter hashtags across social media.

#58 Taking Machetes Down Rabbit Holes Jun 06, 2024

Show notes

Does everything have to have a serious purpose? Is there value in exploring rabbit holes even if they end up to be completely empty at the bottom?
I tackle these questions via an absolutely RIDICULOUS personal story about one of my most recent rabbit hole explorations...I think you will find it amusing. It's okay if you are laughing at me and not with me.
Ultimately, I discuss two words that I love, frivolous and frolic, and draw some connections and, hopefully, a meaningful point.

#55 Check on People May 18, 2024

Show notes

Why does it always seem to be perfect timing when we reach out and check on people...or when people reach out and check on us?
It's because all of us are ALWAYS in the midst of battles, issues , and challenges that nobody knows anything about.
I tell a story about a recent somewhat humorous check-in that happened to me during a one of my epic car naps and then challenge YOU to grab your phone and check in on some of your friends as soon as you can...and that's today.

#53 Thrive Through the Five with Jill Siler Dec 21, 2023

Show notes

Dr. Jill Siler joins me to talk about her incredible book, Thrive Through the Five, and how to step into those big goals and dreams you have in your life. Jill was a long-time superintendent in Texas (Gunter ISD) and now serves as the Deputy Executive Director for Professional Learning for the Texas Association of School Administrators (TASA). She is wonderful keynote speaker and an inspiring voice in education who does not shy away from the reality that although we may love our work, that doesn't mean it isn't incredibly tough and challenging...and there may be even parts that we do NOT like at all. Let us know what you think using the #DaveBurgessShow hashtag on social media.
