  • You Have to Define You

    In today's episode, we're diving into a topic that might get a little emotional. It might get you a little fired up too — at least, I hope it does. Because today's topic is about something we don't talk about enough: defining who you are.

    Not who others want you to be. Not who others think you should be. Who YOU think you are.

    In today's episode, we're diving into a topic that may get a bit emotional, today’s topic has to do with the concept of the changing of the seasons however, it has zero to do with weather.

  • Charlie Mike – Ep. 48, December 22, 2024 – A Year in Review

    We're diving into a special topic,  that’s familiar to all of us and that’s a year in review, a year in reflection if you will. A year is a long time, 12 months, 365 days, or 8,760 hours. Think about that for a second… Time. We can manage it while we have it but when it’s gone, it’s gone. When the time passes after the recording of this podcast, it will never come back. What did you do with your time in 2024? Was it productive? Was it fruitful? That’s why I wanted to sit today and record and episode that I connect with pretty much anyone on. I have four segments that will follow that will allow us to break down 2024 and having us look forward towards 2025. Walk with me down this journey, won’t you?

    In today's episode, we're diving deep into a personal development topic that many ask me about and that’s how to recover from burnout.

  • Charlie Mike – Ep. 43, June 15, 2024 – Leader vs. Supervisor – When to be which?

    In today's episode, we're diving deep into a leadership topic many ask me about, the difference between a leader and a supervisor. I've also heard this as a leader versus a boss. Oh, you can bet there is a difference, and those who can't see the difference probably don't have a great rapport with their team or organization. I want to pick this one apart because there is a time to use both, and if you can master when to use both, you'll be a leader who can earn your organization's trust and respect.
