For this special edition of Sharpen in conjunction with American Farm Bureau's County Leaders week, we welcome Lindsay Calvert to discuss a seat at the table for women in all industries.

A few key themes from our time together include:

1. The business case for having women at the table

2. Biases we each come with

3. The importance of sponsorship

Greg Enas likes to call himself a "venture catalyst" lately, and you will learn what he means by this title, along with his wisdom around living an integrated life. We talk about his powerful childhood experiences, his integration model, and much more on Episode 19.

President and Founder of M2 Investments, Mark Muselman, joins us on this episode of Sharpen to chat about a life of adventure. For this 7 on the Enneagram, it seems only fitting! A few highlights from the time together:

1. We talk about what it means to live life with a spirit of adventure.

2. Mark shares how King David of the Bible can teach us all about adventure.

3. We talk about practical ways to live this out like courageous conversations.

Episode 17's guest is Jordan Harris-- the co-founder of the nation's first millennial founded and led think tank in Louisville, KY. Jordan spends time with Sharpen host Kirby to discuss the freedom to fail and the power of relationships. Jordan reminds us that we are the largest, most educated generation yet so take on the hard and good work in life to make powerful change in the world around us.

Key Learnings of this episode:

1. We think about progress incorrectly and thus we think about failure in the wrong manner.

2. Young professionals-- we can't desire the 'benefits' without taking on the costs and risk.

3. Jordan is a huge fan of Carnegie's writing and emphasizes that solid relationships take time. Good things grow slow! Jordan gives us some tips to grow meaningful relationships.

What does it mean to have a 'generous mindset'? Russ Ford talks about this and much more on this episode of Sharpen. A few highlights from our time together include:

1. To be generous goes beyond our check books but does not exclude this aspect of our lives.

2. Russ shares some of the real barriers to being generous with our time, money, and wisdom.

3. Being generous starts with thinking like a barrel of monkeys, a childhood favorite toy to many.
