The Rooftop Podcast

Latest Episodes:

Out of the Ashes; Lessons Learned from East Palestine Jun 05, 2023

Show notes

Leadership that we need to get to better days is right in front of us, but it’s not in Washington D.C. They are focused on dividing you and me to address their own limited agenda. Leadership is in little communities around America, like East Palestine. Leadership, the kind that moves us to the Rooftop, is contained in the courage and loyalty of those every day leaders with and without titles. As we wrap up this series of interviews, I’ve synthesized some powerful lessons learned for all of us to take away into our own lives, businesses, and communities. Give it a listen, and please share widely.

I'll see you on the Rooftop...

Show notes

“How do you move from the world of a high-performing Green Beret to the fast-paced, dynamic corporate job market…and not lose your identity in the process? No one has done this any better than my dear friend Herb Thompson. But Herb didn’t just stop at figuring out how to make that transition himself, he and his fiancé, Corrie Burton have shared hundreds, if not, thousands of best practices and tips for transitioning into the civilian world while maintaining your authenticity. Check out this podcast around the fire pit and make sure you bring a notepad - because Herb is spitting some wisdom!!!

Rooftop Scar Stories: The Generosity of Scars (ft. Bonnie Carroll) May 19, 2023

Show notes

A big part of the Rooftop podcast is creating relevance in hard times. No one embodies that more than Bonnie Carroll. When she lost her husband Army Brigadier General Tom Carroll in a tragic plane crash in 1992, she re-purposed her grief into creating an organization known as the Tragedy Assistance Program for Survivors (TAPS). TAPS has since done so much for families of the fallen in the War On Terror. Bonnie was awarded the Presidential Medal Of Freedom. She is proof positive for you and me that flowers grow out of the rocky ground and there is a path for all of us to make an impact in the toughest of circumstances - join us for this inspirational interview and then share widely!

East Palestine: Ep. 3 (ft. Chris Neifer) Apr 17, 2023

Show notes

When East Palestine School Superintendent Chris Neifer got the emergency call that a train had de-railed and the town was burning, he wasn’t surprised to hear that his school would be the site of an emergency shelter and command center. But as he donned his heavy cold weather gear on the frigid Friday night, nothing could prepare him for the strategic leadership challenges he’d face over the next 96 hours. Continuing our Rooftop “Buried Stories of East Palestine” Series, dial in and hear his amazing and humble story right here and bring a pad and paper…you’ll wanna take some notes on the lessons this guy learned about crisis leadership and life tapping you on the shoulder.

East Palestine: Ep.2 (ft. Trent Conaway) Apr 14, 2023

Show notes

There have been several articles and reports that have surfaced from East Palestine. Many of them from the 24-7 news cycle portray the town as heavily divided and ill-equipped for the chemical disaster that fell upon them. In my visit to East Palestine and multiple interviews with the village leaders who are getting it done at the grassroots level, I found something completely different. I hope you check out this interview and the rest of the East Palestine Series to hear the stories that were buried in the hype and the leadership lessons that could serve all of us. In this episode, we interview the town mayor, Trent Conaway. Former firefighter, miner, and factory manager, who had to step up with no notification into one of the greatest chemical disasters in our nation’s history. Check it out and let us know what you think.

Show notes

How do you overcome the gut punch of losing a parent in war and transform into a high-performing protector? I have to tell you, this is one of my favorite Rooftop Scar Stories because of the accelerated wisdom this young Spartan Woman brings to all of us through the generosity of her scars. Settle in and learn from this remarkable firefighter and EMT who proves beyond the shadow of a doubt that there are some amazing young leaders who will take the reins as we hand them off in the coming years.
