It’s been an unimaginable year: a pandemic, hurricanes, tornadoes, economic implosion, deaths, loss and lots of “new normals” to navigate. Especially for business owners. If you’ve felt anxious—or feel anxious just reading about the chaos—it just means you’re normal. Yep, you read that right. Dr. John Delony, mental health expert and Ramsey Personality, breaks down what anxiety really is, what it’s trying to tell us, and why we need to pay attention to it. In this episode, Dr. Delony gives leaders practical tips for taking care of their mental health so they can show up and lead people well—even in the midst of stress and uncertainty.

Most people wouldn’t consider HVAC companies, occupational therapists or construction contractors to be creatives. Seth Godin, bestselling author of leadership staples like Linchpin and Tribes, disagrees. He joins EntreLeadership to talk about the essential practice of shipping creative work and inventing the future—even if you aren’t conventionally “creative” and there are no guarantees the idea will work.

Once a successful attorney, Shawn Askinosie had it all—security, a winning track record, and good money. So why did he find himself struck by a panic attack as he left the courtroom one day? Shawn took a hard look in the mirror and discovered he was completely unfulfilled by his job and his life. And so, his search for meaningful work began, leading him from the courtroom to cocoa beans, and eventually, to Askinosie Chocolate.

Fear, anger and shame are generally NOT the emotions we get excited about using in our leadership toolkits (or in life). In fact, leaders are trained to leave emotions at the door or to believe that emotions are a sign of weakness. But Dr. Chip Dodd, author of The Voice of the Heart, says these “weaknesses” are actually tools for strength in business and in life. Tune in as he shares the true value of human emotions, the pitfalls of leadership, and why he’ll never get on an airplane with a fearless pilot.

“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well.”

- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
