Life. Leadership. Business. Growth.

Today on the podcast, Steve and special guest Kenny Morgan of Counsel Creative talk about it all when it comes to creativity in business: everything from "imposter syndrome" and navigating what it means to do what you love even when you're not "the expert", how creativity is so valuable in the workplace, and the emphasis on being a constant learner whether in business or in personal life.

Kenny Morgan is the Co-Founder and CCO of Counsel Creative, a branding, web-development and video production company based out of Chattanooga, TN. As a business owner, Kenny has found that taking ownership of your business niche is key. In that, he has learned that emotional connection is most important for brands to consider. 

In their conversation, Kenny shares with us the 5 ways to build emotional connection as a brand, and why each are important. Kenny says that emotional connection is “...the DNA that should run through everything that you do." We couldn't agree more! The 5 steps he shares are:

The final episode in an all new series for The Greenhouse Podcast: real people with real stories of their experience with the Greenhouse Method.

Today Steve interviews Andy Berry, who shares his story while using the Greenhouse Method. If you’ve ever felt like you needed to “bloom where you are planted,” then you will resonate with Andy’s story, because he discovered something unique while going through our process.

Andy realized that he is meant to come alive exactly where he is; he didn’t need to make a career shift, but rather, lean in and focus his gifts where he is already most passionate.

About Andy:

Awakening Wonder at Home Resources as shared on the podcast:

Several doors in my house are “secret passage ways.” To open the attic door for instance, you must turn the doorknob back and forth three times before entering. Never miss a chance to turn a door, walking path, or hallway into a secret passage. Tip toe through the door for added fun. 

Our Amazon Echo Dot is paired with the Alexa app. In the app, you can create a routine based on voice commands. Each night at bedtime, when my 4-year-old uses the voice command, "Alexa, Goodnight,” Alexa tells him what she hopes he dreams about. I change this every day, often to something that references what we did that day. My son has now begun asking for that “dream idea” to be his bedtime story. Often times it’s something like, “I hope you have a dream about a giant ice cream cone that is 18 feet tall” or “I hope you have a dream about a purple cow jumping on the trampoline.”

We play a lot of dress up. A lot. Super heroes, Star Wars, astronauts, robots. As costumes can sometimes be expensive, we use household items like colanders, cardboard and spatulas. 

We make a lot of homemade burritos. Not the kind you eat, but the pretend kind made out of blankets and our kids. We lay a blanket on the floor, then the kids lay on the blanket. We use stuffed animals and pillows as toppings, then roll the kids up. For a double-stuffed burrito, we roll both our kids at the same time!

During quarantine, we have begun making homemade board games out of poster board, stickers and markers. We’ll take a $1 sheet of stickers and make it the theme. Avengers, Frozen, Star Wars, etc. These board games are simple. Roll the dice, move forwards or backwards depending on what square you land on. We’ll use the stickers to create prompts like, “if you land on this Chewbacca sticker, you have to talk like a Wookie for 10 seconds.”  

It cannot be said enough, read to your kids. And do the voices!

Today we’re sharing our experience of working from home in this season, and some tips we’ve discovered to help navigate it amongst new working, community and family rhythms. 

[We’re leading this episode with the caveat: we don’t want to be another voice in the noise. However, we’re coaches, and we’re processing this with many of our clients. So we want to share a little truth with you: have grace, be flexible and try different things. It’s okay to listen, take ideas in and leave the rest; leave the comparison and need to do it all behind.]

Sundie has curated six tips for working from home; some of these tips are ones she has discovered, and others were created by our team and families. Remember, take some, and leave the rest!

About Johanna:

Johanna is not just any life coach. Because of her adventures and taking bold leaps she is able to offer a unique experience for each of her clients. 

Whether it was growing her career as an executive in New York or the on-a-whim move to Africa - it was a deepening in her faith that has helped her to take increasingly bold steps in her own life. 

Since returning back to the US she realized how her story had the power to impact others as a message of hope. For years Johanna had been on the receiving end of incredible coaching and she knew now was the time to serve others. Over the last year, Johanna’s practice has taken off both in the US and Africa working with non profit executives, tech entrepreneurs, mom-preneurs and many more. 

During her 10 years in Africa she had the opportunity to mentor and consult with business leaders and entrepreneurs - even publishing a book about the transformational work of the largest beauty franchise business in Africa. This experience solidified the desire to draw on her experiences and expertise to impact lives through on-on-one coaching. 

If you’ve always had the feeling that you were meant for something more but you had no idea where to start, Johanna offers insightful coaching that will help you take your next step.
