Listen Then Speak

I had the opportunity to have an open brutally honest chat with keynote speaker and author of BARE Francisco Mahfuz. Today he's an author, requested public speaker, podcast host, husband, and father. We took a deep dive down memory lane to find out what people and places shaped him, but more importantly the formation of his outgoing and uninhibited style of communication. From some of the facets of Brazilian culture to the keen self-awareness of who we was as a young man, we get a great picture into his story and his WHY. This episode will have a little of everything for those who struggle with fear of sharing, to the bold who may overshare in a manner which misses their target audience.  He will share some actionable items of how to maximize and leverage your story.  Listeners will be both entertained and challenged by Francisco's candor and authentic communication.

• His interest in stories and desire to tell them

I had the opportunity to have an open and honest chat with CEO of CEPHR and HR Culture Transformer Tiffany Castagno.  She's been a top professional in the HR space for many years, so I had to get into her "Why".  However, as we took a trip down memory lane to highlight her amazing gifts and talents, we also had to broach a topic that is in need of critical attention.  There have been many strides made in the space of gender equality, but too often, we don't see brown, black, and yellow women as beneficiaries of these advancements.  I certainly desire to see equality for all, but all means ALL, so we GET INTO IT and take a deeper dive to find out what are some of the things that are hindering all women when it comes to gender equality.  Listeners will be both motivated and challenged by Tiffany's honesty and vulnerability.

I had the opportunity to have an open and honest chat with 5 time best selling author Rob Jolles.  Today He's an award winning author, public speaker, podcast host, and sought after corporate trainer.  However, he started his journey in sales at Xerox.  These times as well as his cultural upbringing were key in forming him into who he is today.  With so much rhetoric flying left and right (pertaining to the transition of corporate to entrepreneur), we GET INTO IT and take a deeper dive into the hills and valleys of this journey.  Listeners will be both encouraged and challenged by Rob's candor and professionalism.
