Connection Loop by Dubb

The “old-school” vision of corporate America often conjures up images of serious, stuffy boardrooms with people dressed in their formal best. Much of their attention is focused on maximizing profit and enhancing shareholder value. This vision of corporate America, however, is rapidly changing. Now, corporate America is a place where seemingly “non-businesslike” things, like spiritual mindfulness, can make their home.

To further explore spiritual mindfulness in the dog-eat-dog world of corporate America, we want to share our conversation with Julian Sado. Julian is the founder of Pivot2Change LLC. With his work at Pivot2Change, Julian provides depth and understanding to the new powerful employee and consumer mindset. He does this through a long list of skills and strategies, including consulting, coaching, Neuro-linguistic programming, neuroscience, emotional intelligence, and behavioral coaching. Julian is an extremely talented individual who has a wealth of insights on spiritual mindfulness and its role in our daily professional lives.

In his conversation with Dubb founder Ruben Dua, Julian discusses things like his path to creating Pivot2Change, some of Julian’s spiritual awakenings, why there is no separation between your work life and spiritual life, how we can connect with our subconscious minds, how we can define and overcome stress, and tips on leadership communication. It’s a fantastic conversation that we know you’ll enjoy.

Today’s workforce is a mix of ambitious, driven people striving to accomplish their career goals. Nonetheless, the modern-day workforce continues to have conscious and unconscious biases. For instance, there are still biases against women who are looking to advance in the workforce. While there has been some progress in recent years, there is still plenty of work to do.

To learn more about advancing women in the workforce, Dubb founder Ruben Dua spoke with Rita Kakati-Shah. Rita is the CEO and co-founder of Uma, which is an organization that focuses on bringing talented women back into the workforce. It does this by working with companies and candidates alike, with the goal of helping women return to work after a career break, transition, or relocation. With biases continuing to plague the corporate world, Rita and her Uma colleagues are working to create and accelerate a more equitable workforce.

Among the topics discussed in Ruben and Rita’s conversation include Rita’s origin story, how Rita came up with the Uma name, how the media’s portrayal of diversity has changed, some things that all of us can do to help women advance in the workforce, and how we can promote the cause in a virtual-first world.

When hearing the term “business success,” it’s easy to think of things like converting that huge, key prospect or hiring that rockstar employee. Yes, these things are important in achieving your business goals. Nonetheless, there are other things that are essential for business success. One of those things is designing your life to succeed in business. Being deliberate and strategic about the life choices that you’re making will dramatically increase your odds of business success.

To learn more about lifestyle design, Dubb founder Ruben Dua spoke with Russell Benaroya. Russell is the cofounder of Stride Services, which provides timely, accurate, and actionable bookkeeping and accounting, HR administration, and strategic advisory services.

Before Stride Services, Russell spent 15 years as a healthcare entrepreneur.

In this episode, you’ll hear a variety of topics discussed. Some of them include Russell’s origin story, how we should be running our business’s “numbers,” the role of behaviors, old patterns, and obstacles in success, the biggest financial mistakes that businesses make, and how we can better design our lives to achieve business success. We hope you enjoy the conversation!
