  • The Mental Health Side of Officiating with: Nathan Sherratt

    According to the Bureau of Labour and Statistics

    employment of umpires, referees, and other sports officials is projected to
    grow 32 percent from 2021 to 2031, much faster than the average for all
    occupations.

    About 3,600 openings for umpires,

    referees, and other sports officials are projected each year, on average, over
    the decade. Many of those openings are expected to result from the need to
    replace workers who transfer to different occupations or exit the labor force,
    such as to retire.

    Nathan Sherratt is an active football

    referee with an off the field story which “I use to inspire and improve the
    lives of referees of all ages and levels. I am the Managing Director of The
    Third Team where I support referees by making them aware about all things
    related to resilience and mental toughness to enhance their performance and
    improve their mental health. In addition, I work with schools, colleges and
    universities communicating similar messages through the vehicle of refereeing.

    I’m also a Mental Health Ambassador,

    Autism charity trustee and Speaker.” He joined me this week to tell me more.

  • Stop the Testing Headaches with: Jay Aigner

    According to research by

    Development Academy, a staggering 82% of
    people don't use any time management system. Bear in mind that a simple to-do or a to-don't list is not
    a proper system due to the lack of complexity and prioritization of tasks.
    Still, 33% reported relying on simple to-do lists to manage their work.

    Jay Aigner, is the  CEO of JDAQA a software testing agency with

    around $2M ARR. Father of 5, student pilot, and amateur Astro photographer. My
    5 for 5 (5 am wakeup, workout, stretch, madidate, and journal) has been
    something friends, family members, and fans of my podcast have keyed on as
    something they really appreciate.
    I also host a
    podcast called The First Customer where I interview successful founders about
    how they got their first customer.
    He had his first kid at 19, in college, 1000
    miles from home. I graduated, got a job in my dream industry and worked the 9-5
    grind for years.
    Eventually a new
    challenge presented itself ... get my wife out of working as an overnight
    long-term pediatric nurse. I applied for Uber and was turned down (my license
    was from another state than I currently lived). Luckily I stumbled across
    Upwork (Elance.com at the time) and applied for consulting gigs.

    Fast-forward a few
    years later, I've grown my company from a one man software testing consultancy
    based on my 9-5 experience to a 7-figure testing agency powerhouse with 60+
    employees. I'm a father of 5, amateur Astro photographer, student pilot, hockey
    player, and podcast host.

    My 5 for 5 (5am
    wakeup, workout, full body stretch, mediation, and journaling) is my foundation
    for kicking ass.
    He is someone who
    went from 9-5, to consulting to the freedom of running my own business. My
    family is also currently being featured in a documentary about time management
    and how successful people spend it. He joined me this week to tell me
    more.

  • Hannah Mayderry: "Talking About Emotions is My Favorite Thing to Do"

    Some researchers have found

    that emotions account for up to 90% of decision-making, so it's essential to
    know how they impact the choices we make every day, according to Medium.

    Hannah Mayderry is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the

    State of Florida. I earned a BA (Bachelor of Arts) degree in Psychology and
    Cultural Anthropology while living in Southern California. I then moved home to
    Florida to earn an ME.d. (Master of Arts in Education) as well as an Ed.S.
    (Education Specialist) degree in Mental Health Counseling from the University
    of Florida. During the completion of my education, I had the opportunity to
    work within a variety of mental health settings, including local schools,
    inpatient treatment centers, and non-profit organizations, before transitioning
    into private practice. Growing up, I was always told I was "too
    emotional" or "too sensitive." I didn't know how it was possible
    to ignore emotions, because I felt them so deeply. What I used to consider a
    weakness, I now understand to be my greatest strength. I have the honor of
    helping people give language to their own emotions so that they are able to
    identify and progress towards what they want, while confidently saying no to
    the things they do not. ​ I am an LGBTQ+ friendly therapist specializing in
    self-esteem, anxiety, couples counseling, and religious trauma. My passion for
    these topics comes from my own experience of releasing that which was outside
    of my control, in order to direct my energy towards elements of life within my
    control. I view therapy as the process of working towards self-empowerment, in
    the midst of an unpredictable world.  She
    joined me this week to tell me more.
