About Steve: ​When he wrote his memoir, In Search of Courage, he realized that the common thread of introversion he thought was a curse all his life was actually a blessing. For years he wore a mask at work and coped with his stress by sacrificing his health and personal relationships. Now he embraces his own introversion as a toolkit to become a happier self. His purpose is to help other introverts to accelerate their own journey to discover their strengths and how to apply them at home and at work. He seeks to inspire others to overcome past obstacles and find joy, pride, and confidence in life. He retired from corporate America and enjoy sharing articles, books, quizzes, and resources through his website, BeyondIntroversion.com. He is excited to combine his career experiences and his enthusiastic belief in all introverts through his new leadership book, The Corporate Introvert: How to Lead and Thrive with Confidence. He​ loves to engage with fellow introverts through social media and email, so drop him a line.​Steve hails from Texas and enjoys family time and travels with his wife and three kids.

Meet Ted Duley, who after a 50 year career in the insurance industry found a new way to work (for fun this time fun) as organizer of the Sacramento Pedego Owners Group (and moderator of their Facebook page).

As Ted says, "Having just retired I wasn’t looking for work, but when I purchased my Pedego and discovered how much fun this could be, I just couldn't help myself from bringing others along for the ride".  Adding a new line to his long and successful resume, "willing to work for fun". On this week's Pedego Podcast, chronicling the eBike Revolution (and the love stories of those just riding along).

Quotes

“When I was in a place where I didn’t know that I could run this business by myself, what actually happened from 2017 to 2019 was a 30% revenue increase and a 260% net profit increase. And it was all because of the EOS process.” (4:15) - Dawn Abbott

“I love seeing the impact that EOS has. I love small-business owners…and I am saddened when they’re on that treadmill that I once ran.” (5:04) - Dawn Abbott

“If [employees are] the most valuable assets, why would we ever want them to be less than? Why would we ever want to not take care of them?” (8:30) - Dawn Abbott

“When you’re doing what you love and things that come easily and naturally to you, your energy is high and your production and output is crazy because you’re in your zone. And the minute you have to drop down and do things that you don’t like doing, you can never bring your energy back up that day.” (12:54) - Dawn Abbott

“It’s a beautiful thing to be able to have a full, rich life that contains more than just the grind.” (38:06) - Dawn Abbott

Hear about one passionate eBike rider on a hot pink Pedego, who's hit the road with her 8 month old Chihuahua Gigi, and already ridden over 2,000 miles on this week's episode of the PEDEGO PODCAST, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". Here on OC TALK RADIO.

As Cyndi Lauper sang, some girls "just wanna have fun".  That's certainly the case with this week's Pedego fun rider Deborah Neff.  Who after finding herself stuck at home alone for too long during COVID, was determined to get out and get active again. So she Googled ebikes, found a hot pink Pedego that matched her style and personality, popped her 8 month old Chihuahua GiGi on the front and took off in search of fun and adventure. Hear how this South Florida woman and her sidekick became the "belle of the ball" at charity rides across the south.  And racked up over 2,000 miles along the way (with her trusty sidekick in tow). "All I have to do is say 'Gigi, do you want to go for a bike ride?' and she gets excited", says Deborah.  And so are we on this week's holiday adventure tale (or should we say "tail"). Here on the PEDEGO PODCAST.
