Extraordinary Us

Paul George who has advanced degrees in clinical social work, marriage and family therapy and has been working with individuals and families for over 30 years, talks about this period of imbalance in all our lives.

Jeff talks about mental fitness and some of his struggles in the past.

Scott Paul, former CEO of Wooly, a platform for word-of-mouth commerce, talks about being an igniter and a connector and knowing when self-awareness is necessary to get out of your own way. Scott dives into his different business ventures, the qualities of a leader, having a strong mind, entrepreneurship, taking chances, crypto, and the art of not making any plans.

Steve Starks, CEO of the Larry H. Miller Group of Companies and former president of the Utah Jazz joins Jeff on this third episode of season 2 of Extraordinary US. We discuss work balance, mental health, what Steve learned from Larry H Miller, new owner of the Utah Jazz Ryan Smith, and the myth that money equals happiness. It’s only when we allow ourselves to live in the moment and acknowledge the many blessings surrounding us that we experience true wealth.

Susan Petersen, entrepreneur and social media expert, is interviewed by Jeff Burningham on this second episode of season 2 of Extraordinary US. Susan Petersen discusses the ups and down of social media, our relationship with money, forgiveness, the journey of becoming a women entrepreneur and more. It’s only once we are able to let go of the fears and anger holding us back that we are able to become the best version of ourselves and inspire others to do the same.

Derek Brown, former chair of the Republican Party, is interviewed by Jeff Burningham on the first episode of season 2 of Extraordinary US. Derek Brown discusses the effect social media has had on people in recent years, the importance of becoming comfortable with change, developing tolerance, and much more. In these unprecedented times, social media has become a symbol of unity, while simultaneously a place for criticism. When we are quickly able to block out opinions that don’t align with our values with a click of a button, we are left to wonder about the long-lasting effects this might have on our world.
