  • EMS Retention Beyond the Wage: Why People Leave
    We all know that EMS faces many challenges: low paying wages, not being considered an essential service in many states, having no standard structure when it comes to funding, etc. Evading responsibility and blaming these factors for our failures as leaders would be easy and valid. However, many agency leaders are thriving in this environment. How? Why? These thriving leaders are focused on what they can control, naturally growing their circle of influence. 
    In this episode, I will share EMS retention strategies I’ve witnessed and/or utilized in my work that made an impact. We can lead effectively and engage our workforce even when it seems the odds are stacked against us. Money is not the key to retention. The work environment is. 
    Join me on this episode as we discuss why people leave EMS.

  • Pilot: How to Recognize Playing Small & How to Stop

    Episode 1:

    Playing small can show up differently for all of us. Depending on our personality, it could show up as a fear of being seen or noticed. For others, it could mean staying in a position that doesn't light us up or bring us the fulfillment we once dreamed of. Or, perhaps playing small means you've stopped learning and you no longer dream about professional aspirations or goals. In this episode, we will discuss the 12 behaviors attributed to playing small and how we can quickly identify these behaviors and address them.

    In leadership, it's important we identify these behaviors early and do the work to get to the heart of what's driving how we show up. If we fail to address behaviors that don't serve our dreams and aspirations we can find ourselves stuck with feelings of regret. Playing small will keep us from living the lives are destined for. This podcast will provide the insight necessary to identify and act on these behaviors moving us closer to the lives we dream of.
