  • S6 Ep 272 Christa Santos: Why you should want to be more relational
    It is funny how a person can be in our circle of influence and yet we have not met. Kind of like two planes that fly over and past one another is the analogy. I knew Christa Santos before I met her through StarterStudio (previously Canvs) a startup accelerator program. As a marketing consultant, she helped with promotions and launch marketing for the organization. I actually met her in person a year later. 
    In this episode, I learned even more about her. We talked about the future of the marketing industry and then moved to how Elon Musk is working on a product called neuralink which is a brain-chip implant startup to help individuals suffering from paralysis restore autonomy in their lives.
    Wondering what her mentoring advice was,  “Teach someone how to do your job, you want to create your successors. We have to give back, that makes your community better.”

  • S6 Ep. 271 Pamela McGee An HR leader that comes from multiple career industries

    I met Pam McGee at an ATD conference last year and was amazed at her confidence, and depth of knowledge in HR. I knew she was someone that should be a guest on The Intern Whisperer. A little about her background, she served in the Air Force and joined when she was 17 years old and served for 6 years.  Impressive, right?

    She led the conversation with Lead without influence. Those are three powerful words. Think about that for a minute and how to do that in your life. Pam is a go-getter and after leaving the Air Force, went to school and worked full time while being a young mom.  From there her career journey included working for big companies such as Home Depot for 8 years, Ross Stores, and then moving to Valencia College. She holds SHRM certifications in (PHR)/SHRM-CP. 


    Her thoughts about what 2030 holds for us are built around AI, robots, and what remote work will look like as we continue to move closer to that not too far off date.  Tune in to this episode and learn more about Pamela and reach out to connect with her on LinkedIn.

    This week’s guest did not disappoint and you will want to reach out to her right away and learn more about Synapse and how you can get involved. When I first met Lauren Prager at a Synapse Florida event, I was impressed with her positivity, it was infectious in all the right ways. As I got to know her better I learned more about the organization and how well connected she is to so many resources that everyone in innovation or technology will want to tap into.  I have several favorite parts that I believe my listeners will find valuable to hear. Lauren’s mentoring advice is the first nugget, the second is her mantra that she lives her life by, and the third is how we should engage with ethical use of AI.  I hope you enjoy the show; please leave us a comment, share the episode and tag a friend to help us grow our fanbase.

  • S6 Ep. 268 Roger Hunt Innovation Ethics, Reframing the Investor

    Today’s guest, Roger Hunt, founder of Idea Trek, Inno Ethics, Hoover Dao is interesting because he kicks off the episode strong with his five words that describe him: Open, Trusting, Cantankerous, Intense, and Governed. That last word Governed, stands out.

    We discussed how none of us want to be defined by how a person sees us at that one moment in time. Roger is an author and also shares about his new book that will drop at the end of September.

    The book is titled, Innovation Ethics, Reframing the Investor Thesis by Roger Hunt and he shares insight as to Destruction Theory and how founders seem to fall under collateral damage.

    My words, not his. Please leave us a comment as we always appreciate when you share what you liked about the episode and reach out to our guests.
