Leadership Live

It's ok not to know things, because when we ask questions and get answers, we learn, educate ourselves and grow as human beings. Oprah Winfrey began writing the "What I Know For Sure" column in O, The Oprah Magazine. Saying that the question offered her a way to take "stock of her life". Let us now ask ourselves the question: what do I know for sure?

It allows you to take a deep look into yourself and your life, draw learning and gather insights so that you can keep growing in your potential. Have a listen to this episode so that you can get some ideas about how to ponder this question for yourself.

Today we have a story of following your passion, creating a business based on the things you value with a bit of a David and Goliath scene thrown in for good measure and definitely lots to learn. Bret Caretsky shares his journey of going from a small seasonal juice bar in Montauk to opening a coffee shop in NY to licensing a lifestyle brand and drink. On the way, he and his partner created the unicorn drink, an idea that was stolen by Starbucks. They fought for their invention, sued Starbucks, and won! Join us for the conversation.

You get to hear the inside scoop about my previous career as an actuary, my accomplishments, and my current business and life events.

In a world where we're experiencing physical disconnection, how can we create meaningful connections? Through the covid pandemic, we've moved from face-to-face interactions, being physically present to the virtual world of meet and greet. It has become a way to be more efficient at times, enabling us to meet people we may not have met otherwise and at the same time, we ask ourselves. Can we deepen our relationships when we are unable to physically be together? This is the question Marc Marling posed for our coaching session today. Listen to this episode to see how Marc revisits his own assumptions and mindset to create a new story about what's possible in a virtual world.

Confucius says - Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall. What obstacles, failures, mistakes have you faced in your life? And What have you learned from them? The key is to learn from our mistakes so that we don't repeat them and then we can truly rise above. This is a powerful lesson we can learn from my conversation with Chad Kalland. In this conversation, we go deep as Chad shares his courageous journey with us. He weathered the storm and came out on top, turning his life around and becoming a successful, purpose-driven CEO.

It's not easy to be a CEO, wife, mother of 4 and still manage to keep all the balls juggled and flowing. It takes a lot of courage, self-determination, and focus to drive you and your team through the hard times, while keeping a strong focus on your purpose, your WHY, and deal with the day-to-day tasks and challenges life throws our way. We have a great example here with Iffy Ibekwe. Today we covered the relevant topics of delegation vs micromanagement, staying in your zone of genius, self-belief and managing your team in the most effective and inspiring way.

Empathy is one of the most valued characteristics of a leader. and it has never been more relevant than right now when we're facing uncertainty and complexity at much higher levels than ever before. Today I'm talking to Killian Hemmy who shares his story and life-altering experiences as a leader, showing how to find strengths in vulnerability and how to lead with empathy. There's so much to learn from this conversation with Killian and one of my favorite nuggets is - if people can communicate better, we can achieve almost anything - definitely a principle that is close to my heart.

Welcome back for Season 2 of the Leadership Live Podcast. We're not all born to be leaders but leadership is a skill that can be learned. And this episode is all about habits - the activities our brain has automated - for our benefit, growth and character development and sometimes just because. Everything that we repeat enough times, is turned into a habit. Daphna shares 4 easy steps you can use to turn your desired behavior into a habit and showcases examples that help us gain momentum at work and in life. Welcome back for another inspiring episode of Leadership Live.
