business misfit

Heart-centered leaders give, give, give. Which is awesome. Until you find yourself burned out, threadbare, and running on fumes. 

What’s the antidote? More self-care practices? *Maybe.* But the CEO of Mom Complex and author of “Slay Like a Mother,” Katherine Wintsch, tells us we must add soul care to our life routines.

Are you feeling the burnout? Is the yoga, meditation, and green smoothie routine not cutting it anymore? Then join us as we learn about the art of soul care so we can keep thriving and flourishing. 

ABOUT THE BUSINESS OF BEING

Conventional thinking says you have to do more to succeed in business. But in reality, success comes from being more. The Business of Being is the podcast about inner success. 

THE SHOW IS PRODUCED BY BAND OF MISFITS®

We help companies and people to stand out and win. 

Come say hello at WelcomeMisfit.com. 

Stephen Moegling is the podcast host, Founder & Chief Misfit at Band of Misfits. 

Sir Isaac Smith is the show’s well-bearded executive producer.

The indomitable Stephen Jenkins voices our mascot, Lafayette the Owl.  

There’s a sales “guru” I stalk on IG. His posts are full of photos of him boarding private jets, wearing bling, and kissing models. What he sells is a get-rich-quick scheme. I know it, and if you saw his posts, you’d know it too. 

And yet the dude has an epic following. 

Why’s that? He’s great at selling. Like really great. I don’t believe a word coming out of his mouth, yet I can’t help but watch his video pitches. I’m captivated. But thankfully, I’m not so captivated that I give him my money. The same can’t be said for the unlucky ones who do business with him. 

It’s guys like him that give persuasion a bad name. In this episode, I want to introduce you to a behavioral scientist who will teach us to persuade without feeling slimy or sleazy. 

Let’s be clear. You’re trying to persuade people every day in business. To buy your ideas. To give you the green light for a special project. To help you advance your cause or career. 

Especially in presentations. 

Don’t let the slimeballs have a monopoly on persuasion. Listen in and listen up as we learn to persuade in presentations—without the slime or the sleaze.

Sometimes you decide to make the leap to a better life.

But sometimes, the Universe pushes you out of the nest.

That’s what happened to Stacy B. 

She had a cushy corporate job. The only problem was: it was sucking the life out of her. 

Then one day, Stacy B found herself out of her cushy job.

That’s when things got real.

This season’s theme is “Making the Leap.” 

Leap Moments are when we decide—or have no choice—to reach for something more. But making the leap can be treacherous. 

When we leap, we leap into the unknown. 

This season, we’re exploring how to make the leap—and get to the other side.

You should know about it.

Feeling burned out sucks. 

(I know. I’ve done two tours of burnout since the pandemic.)

Low energy. Low drive. 

And (for me, at least), everything feels overwhelming.

That’s no way to be.

Hopefully, you’re not living in Burnout City. If you are, this is the episode for you.

And if you’re NOT feeling burned out, awesome: but still listen to this episode.

We live in a culture that values doing over being.  

We’re so busy with what’s in front of us that we neglect what’s happening inside of us. 

You have to be vigilant to keep your energy tip-top.  

I invited my favorite doctor to talk about burnout. 

You’ll love Dr. Amy Coleman. 

She radiates joy for helping people to heal. 

Dr. Amy is also quite accomplished. 

She  has helped heal many people as a:

• U.S. Air Force surgeon
• Iraq war veteran
• Primary physician for the USAF Special Forces units
• Chief medical physician for NASA Space Shuttle support missions

And if THAT wasn’t enough, Dr. Amy also received her fellowship from the Institute of Function Medicine at the Cleveland Clinic and has secondary training in Japanese acupuncture.

90 to 95% of all communication is non-verbal. Yet we’re trained to “actively listen” or only tune into what people are saying in business meetings and conversations. But when you only pay attention to what people are saying, you miss vital information. Learn the three things to observe when communicating with people in this episode of Connected Conversations: the science and soul of communicating with people.
