    Send a text

    Over her 30-year career as an executive VP in the entertainment industry, Dana Arnett has delivered over 6000 television shows to audiences around the world — but these days, she is focused on creating a different kind of impact. 

    Motivated by the psychological effects of discrimination in the industry, she has since retired from entertainment and founded Wicked Bionic, a marketing and advertising agency built around promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, both internally and externally.

    Dana is passionate about creating positive change through inclusive marketing, advocacy, and supporting women-owned businesses. Tune in to learn about the differences between multiculturalism and cross-culturalism, the link between non-inclusive workplace cultures and quiet quitting, and why true advocacy involves turning over the mic.

    Ready to play bigger? Listen now to discover: 

    • The biggest lessons Dana has learned while building her business and her top advice for entrepreneurs
    • What sets inclusive marketing apart from the traditional, whitewashed style of marketing — and one major non-inclusive marketing nightmare
    • When you should start hiring in your business — and what you should get off your plate first

    Guest bio: Dana Arnett encourages the diverse team at her Wicked Bionic marketing and advertising agency to push beyond conventional ways to reach into communities by seeking to fundamentally understand cultural nuances and the minds and hearts of consumers. She graduated from Cornell University's Diversity and Inclusion Certification program and serves on the board of Fulfillment Fund, a 40-year non-profit in Southern California.

  • From Sesame Street to Michelle Obama’s Kitchen with Cassie & David Bizzaro

    Send a text

    Husband-and-wife team David and Cassie Bizzaro are no strangers to shifting out loud. Their journey has included moving from Tulsa to New York (and back again), taking a professional leap of faith, and strolling down Sesame Street (yes, that one!). 

    After 15 years of experience in higher education marketing and communications, Cassie is crushing it in her role as Director of Communications at the NYU Stern School of Business, while puppeteer and funny man David currently stars alongside Michelle Obama in Netflix’s delightful Waffles + Mochi’s Restaurant — an educational children’s show that mixes puppetry with cooking.

    Tune in for a candid, often hilarious, and occasionally poignant conversation about dating reluctantly, auditioning for roles as a POC, faking it till you make it, being haunted by an entertainment legend, and dealing with intimate personal loss during a time of intense uncertainty.

    Listen now to discover:

    • How the couple have defined their strengths and roles in order to shift TOGETHER more effectively  
    • How David built an Emmy-winning puppeteering career from the ground up with zero experience 
    • A behind-the-scenes look at the puppeteering world (and Michelle Obama)!

    Guest bio: Cassie Bizzaro is a film graduate from the University of Oklahoma and the Director of Communications at the NYU Stern School of Business. She loves good emails, organizing, and kind people with big dreams. David is a first-generation American Latinx actor and Emmy-Award-winning puppeteer who has worked for culture-defining companies such as The Muppets, Sesame Street, The Jim Henson Company, SYFY, and The Flaming Lips. They live in Tulsa with their cats and their son, Benny.

  • Lifelong Learning and Shifting with Sara Larch

    Send a text

    Have you thought about what your life will look like after you retire? During her career in the Physician Enterprise world, Sara Larch was known as a skillful leader. As the second woman in 75 years to become Board Chair of a large trade association, she co-founded a women leaders’ forum to prepare other women to follow in her footsteps.

    Although Sara is now retired, that hasn’t slowed her down one bit. She continues to learn, grow, and shift, through joining boards, earning new certifications, and working with the Osher Lifelong Learning program to teach a course on creating a joyful life. Sara has not only created incredible shifts for herself through both her career and her retirement — she’s also helped to inspire some of my own shifts. 

    Listen to learn how retirement has changed the way that Sara thinks about playing bigger, the importance of truly listening to that little voice that says “why not?”, and the possibilities that can open up when you learn how to let go and let things happen.

    Listen now to discover:

    • How to distinguish between playing small and simply choosing your moment to play big
    • The differences between women and men in interview situations
    • How to “act from the middle” in order to have your message connect more strongly

    Sara Larch brings 35+ years of consulting and real-world industry experience in large physician groups in Integrated Delivery Systems and Academic Medical Centers and eight years at Deloitte Consulting as a Managing Director and National Leader of the Physician Enterprise practice. She has C-suite experience as COO of the University of Maryland’s 900-physician organization and as VP of Inova Health System, leading teams of physicians and other leaders to define the optimized operating model.

  • Shifting With Intention with Rick Hust

    Send a text

    Not all shifts are created equal! Shifting with intention requires you to be strategic about what you truly want in your life — even if it takes you off the beaten path.


    In this episode of Shift Out Loud, I sit down with executive coach Rick Hust, an old friend who happens to be one of my biggest inspirations. After a successful 32-year career developing high-performance sales team, Rick left his job as a sales executive and launched his executive coaching firm. Now, he helps people discover their true potential and uncover their most joyful path through leadership development, top performance strategies, coaching, and Biblical counseling.


    Our conversation addresses the importance of prioritizing happiness when choosing your professional path, why the traditional career ladder is an increasingly outdated concept, and how Rick bucked expectations and decided to play big through following his passion.


    Ready to play bigger? Listen now to discover: 

    • How a major shift at the age of 9 set the tone for Rick’s life and has influenced the way that he continues to positively impact those around him
    • Why he was happy to step down as a Vice President and step back into a Regional Manager role 
    • The spiritual shift that helps him make sense of the world around him and let go of stress

      

    Guest bio: Rick Hust is a former sales executive who specialized in developing high-performing sales teams. He left the corporate world after 32 years and now uses his talents in his executive coaching firm. Rick’s true passion is to help shepherd people through the truths of the Bible in such a way that they can live a better life, excel in their endeavors, have a godly influence on their family and friends, and have an impact on their community and the world.

    When you truly understand the incredible impact of shifting out loud, you want to encourage everyone around you to think and play bigger. Marissa Levin takes it to the next level—she’s made it her Lifetime Legacy Mission to empower 1 billion people to live their most joyful lives!

    Marissa’s entrepreneurial journey began in 1995 when she launched a strategic communications and education firm as a solopreneur with a $35,000 contract and grew it to approximately $13 million in revenue. Since then, she’s become an award-winning trailblazer in leadership consulting through her Successful Culture, Successful Culture International, and Marissa International consultancies.

    In this episode, we dive deep into the spiritual side of shifting into your purpose, how to trust in the process of your own transformation, and how Marissa manifested the sale of her company through a dream.

    Listen now to discover:

    • The big shifts that led Marissa discovering true purpose and how she’s fulfilling her joyful mission
    • Why it’s crucial to reclaim our power and not look to others for permission to shift
    • How your body will signal when it’s time to make a shift—and why you should pay attention!

    Marissa Levin is an entrepreneur, speaker, mindset expert, and globally recognized growth strategist. Through her consultancy Marissa International, she equips individuals and leaders with all that they need to realize their highest potential. She is the best-selling author of Built to SCALE: How Top Companies Create Breakthrough Growth Through Exceptional Advisory Boards.
