It takes courage to feel the fear and go anyway. And those are the kind of leaders we want to follow.
Sonnie Linebarger is a wife, mom, COO of Bristol Hospice, host of the Evoke Greatness podcast, and entrepreneur.  She’s accomplished, respected, and redefining the next chapter in her life.
I feel fortunate to have gotten this interview even as the story is being written. Hear how Sonnie navigated Covid as an executive with thousands of employees depending on her. And what lead her to leap into solopreneurship.

What does it take to upset our ideology of how the world works? Or how a business should be run? NéAndré shares how encouraging others to embrace that they are perfectly imperfect and helping them realize the best in themselves can be catalyst for change.

Dr. Michaela O’Donnell is back with us today. And for this conversation I focused on her personally.
Not her book or really even the work she does at the Max De Pree Center for Leadership.

We all know people that seem to be made of something different-they’re killin’ it in every area of life.

If you looked at Michaela’s accomplishments you’d think the same of her, so I asked her if she’d be willing to demystify things for us about her personal life.

Where does she fail? How can she do so much and what is she learning?

You’re going to need to listen back to this one.

Please enjoy Dr. Michaela O’Donnell freeing you from having to do it all.

Willie is one of the people you want to help steer the future of a university.
Hear about the early influences and the winding career path that led him to executive leadership in higher education.

In this episode, we’re bringing together two big topics: Passive Income & Productivity. 

We all want to walk to the mailbox and see envelopes that contain money vs the bills we expect. And it’s possible to have that be your experience.

You know the feeling of being on a treadmill; you’re sweating but going nowhere. Ever feel like that in your personal or professional life? You’re active for sure but productive…not so much. 

Enter our guests: Nina and Mitch Ferraro. After eight years as business partners in real estate, they now have passive income that exceeds their monthly living expenses. On top of that, Nina launched a company focused on productivity.

Too much stress and the tool will look strong but be brittle under the surface. Too little heat and you’ll be using much more force to get the metal to take shape. And it’ll ultimately fail under pressure as well.

Let’s get into it; the intro to “Tempered Resilience: How Leaders Are Formed in the Crucible of Change.”

We made it through Covid and started settling in to the new rhythm. Then people began quitting. The Great Resignation is another exhausting round in the fight as a leader.
We’ve got your back.
This episode is practical, encouraging, funny and will remind you that you’re not alone.
It sucks when great people leave, hear how a small business owner is fighting back.
