  • Curiosity as a Practice - Rethinking Respect in the Workplace with Dr. Julie Pham | BWI #228

    Episode 228 - Curiosity as a Practice - Rethinking Respect in the Workplace with Dr. Julie Pham

    Dr. Julie Pham, author of 7 Forms of Respect, transformed communication by treating curiosity as a daily practice. Drawing from her bicultural upbringing and global research, she helps leaders move beyond the "golden rule". Her journey teaches that respect is relative, and building deeper relationships starts with self-awareness and intentional listening.

    Key Takeaways
    • Treat curiosity as a deliberate practice involving self-awareness, relationship building, and clear communication.

    • Realize that respect is relative and subjective rather than a fixed or universal definition.

    • Shift away from the golden rule to treat others how they actually want treatment.

    • Identify your personal "rubber band" breaking points to manage expectations and avoid emotional snapping.

    • Slow down and use the power of the pause when entering a heated conversation.

    Dr. Julie Pham is the founder and CEO of CuriosityBased, an organizational development firm based in Seattle. She is the author of the Amazon bestseller, 7 Forms of Respect®: A Guide to Transforming Your Communication & Relationships at Work.

  • From $1M Sales to Mexico - Navigating the Realities of Scaling with Meghan Higney | BWI #225

    Episode 225 - From $1M Sales to Mexico - Navigating the Realities of Scaling with Meghan Higney

    Meghan Higney founded Message to replace "ugly" comfort shoes with sustainable, cork-based footwear. We explore her move from finance to artisan craftsmanship while raising a family. Despite hitting $1 million in sales, she faced cash-flow hurdles. Now living in Mexico, Meghan shows us how to prioritize joy over external corporate expectations.

    Key Takeaways
    • Choose the "better feeling thought" to manage the intense emotional pressure of building something.

    • We must build businesses around what feels right instead of following outside social expectations.

    • We need to prioritize cash flow because rapid sales growth can actually drain business capital.

    • Use natural materials like cork to create sustainable products that help protect our planet.

    • We should simplify strategy by focusing on key channels rather than getting distracted by success.

    Resources

    Meghan Higney is the founder of Message, a mother to two children, and an established business builder who leads with resilience, integrity, and financial rigor. With a background in finance and investment, she has built a consumer brand under real pressure, navigating cash-flow uncertainty and leadership strain. In 2024, she moved her family to central México to reshape how she leads and measures success, moving away from unsustainable paths toward a life of longevity and honest communication. She believes entrepreneurship is as much about who you become as what you build.
