  • #118 - A letter to the listener: Part 1

    It’s incredible, what happened when we started focusing…

    You probably know that feeling. That thing that you really want to accomplish - that you know would really change things, if you could just get focused on it.

     For us as a team here at Greenhouse, it’s looked like dialing-in and leveling-up our Monthly Membership + Community for intentional people looking to transition or grow in their career.

    It's been an extraordinary season of leaning in and doing this important work that's been in the works for almost 6 years.

    On today's podcast episode, Steve is reading a letter to you, the listener, about what we've been up to this summer and what you can look forward to this fall.

    We are buzzing with excitement and can't wait to share it all with you. It mostly has to do with what happens when you really focus on what matters most.

    Cheers!

  • #117 - Want a job that helps the world?

    There are over 6 million new businesses started each year in the US, according to the Small Business Administration. And even before the 2020 surge of new business startups, small businesses made up 99.9% of businesses in the country.

    Part of the motivation for many of these entrepreneurs and solopreneurs is the desire to “help people”.

    They know that much, but… now what?

    This month Steve had a moment of clarity after breakfast with a friend. He shares: 

    "I remembered how hungry I was in the beginning for advice from those ahead of me on the same path. And suddenly, I wanted to share my “mundane” wisdom with everyone out there stuck or pressing through. So, if you and I could have breakfast tomorrow, here’s what I would share with you..."

  • #116 - Should I quit my job?

    Are you at the point of being *done* in your current role,

    and wondering: "should I quit my job NOW?"

    Is that even a good idea?!

    Let's pause for a moment, and ask a few questions. 

    #1: Ask yourself: are you unsafe? If the answer is yes, then yes: you absolutely should quit your job. End of discussion!

    #2: Why? Why do you want to quit your job? 

    You might be feeling the need to make an urgent decision, but the decision may feel less urgent after taking a moment to answer, Why?

    Today on The Greenhouse Podcast, Sundie walks us through these questions, coaching through how to decide if it's time to quit your job.

    • #112 - Part 2: How to boost your creativity (and get more done!)

      You’d think creativity is all about free-flowing ideas, lightning-bolt moments of pure inspiration, and a steady stream of effortless bliss 💡

      But the great news is that most of these creators’ ideas did not come in the moment. 

      Anyone can have consistent ideas and create valuable content if they have a process.

      But you can’t learn and create if there’s not time to think. Which means it all starts with making time to think!

      Today on The Greenhouse Podcast, Steve continues the conversation with special guest, Joe Wise of JSW Productions about how to boost your creativity as a creative, entrepreneur and leader - and ultimately, how to get more done! 

      It all starts with a process.

    • #111 - Part 1: How to boost your creativity (and get more done!)

      Myth: People who create stuff always have ideas & inspiration.
       
      Fact: creators are not inspired all the time – they need a process to consistently produce.

      See, you can’t force creativity! 

      You need to know yourself - when inspiration tends to come naturally - then have systems to consistently get yourself into that place, and capture ideas in the moment.

      Today on The Greenhousepodcast, Steve talks with special guest, Joe Wise of JSW Productions. For the next two weeks, they're leading a two-part series on how to about how to boost your creativity as a creative, entrepreneur, and leader - and ultimately, how to get more done!

    • #110 - 20 skills you need and probably never learned

      In school, we study calculus, history, and English literature.

      But in daily life, we have to navigate relationships, communication, and doing our taxes.

      What is imposter syndrome anyway?

      And why is it so common? Also, what's the other side of the coin? The healthier mindset to have?

      The ironic thing is, most people reading this have some version of it, yet think everyone else is more confident than they are.

      On today's episode of The Greenhouse Podcast, Steve interviews our newest expert Career, Business and Stress Management Coach, Dana Lin, all about imposter syndrome, and the four ways we can overcome it.
