In this podcast conversation, Jerry talks with Ian Sanders, author of "365 Ways to Have a Good Day", who found himself at the edge of rediscovery at the beginning of COVID lockdown. Fumbling and longing for ground, he dove into his past by paging through his old journals. Unearthing the stories of his life at that moment reminded him of who he was and what made him tick. His collection of entries from his daily sojourns solidified an understanding of who he was and who he might want to be. In a record of noticing and documenting, we note what brings us joy, what our hurts or anger have to tell us, what we’re scared of, and the glimmers of moments when we feel whole. Jerry adds that in doing so we often develop a guidebook to our own lives. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

As frequent listeners of the podcast can attest, a well-formed open, honest question can be a catalyst for radical self-inquiry and deep inner work. For Gino Zahnd, the founder of Cozy and Seabright, that question was, “What would I like the people that I work with to know about me that they don’t know?.” Gino, who lives with a rare genetic order called Fabry Disease, shares how one profound question asked at Reboot Bootcamp gave him the courage to share his health struggles with his team and ultimately led to a life-changing kidney donation from a colleague. Jerry chats with Gino about how things have changed since his Bootcamp experience in 2016, his decision to step down as CEO of Cozy, and his new life in Colorado. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

What can we learn from regret? Regret gives us chance to see things from both sides. The experience we lived through, and the retrospective. Pausing to reflect on what was or has been allows us to see what we’ve learned from the vantage point of where we are now. As Dan Pink asserts in this podcast conversation and in his latest book, "The Power of Regret", regret is a clarifying emotion that is also instructive about how to lead a better life. In this conversation with Jerry, the pair explore two themes — taking time to pause and the big opportunity in reviewing regrets. In many ways, they go hand in hand. When we slow down to a halt, we give ourselves a chance to reel through what went well, what didn’t, and what we’ve gained. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

When considering collective planning as a team, what are the best practices leaders should adopt and what common pitfalls should they avoid? In this Wisdom for Work, Andy Crissinger and Jerry Colonna share why the actual planning process framework you choose is less important than the interpersonal dynamics among the team. The duo describes how a lack of trust can often undermine even the most thoughtfully designed sessions, and illustrate how collective planning, when executed well, can be a tool to strengthen the entire team.     Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

When faced with uncertain times and unavoidable challenges, how we show up matters. For some of us, a healthy reaction might be to withdraw and tend to the tender parts of ourselves that need support and care. For others, these crucible moments present an opportunity to lean into the work of our lives and give us the chance to truly discover the work we were born to do.  In this episode, Jerry sits down with Andrew Alexseyenko, a Ukrainian entrepreneur and co-founder of KOLO, a nonprofit organization that provides operational assistance to the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In this conversation, Andrew describes the early stages of the war and shares what compelled him and his co-founders to put their existing startup on pause and shift their focus toward building KOLO. Jerry marvels at the power of shared leadership and points out that the hallmark of a great leader is the number of leaders they help create. He reminds us of the ways collective leadership can effectively combat hopelessness and can provide a sense of agency in the face of adversity. Jerry illustrates how the skills we develop during times of turbulence are carried with us throughout the remainder of our adult lives. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

In this podcast, Jerry sits down with Chris Remus, Founder of Chainflow, to explore an enormously complex and personal question, “What does it mean to be done?” What unfolds is a thought-provoking conversation around our relationship to work, and why we so often sacrifice our personal happiness in the pursuit of ‘doneness.’   Chris reflects on the ways in which the misalignment between his inner and outer self left him feeling unsafe and sapped his ability to fully tap into his potential. Jerry supports Chris in understanding that the real work of our lives is never truly ‘done,’ especially when we allow the junctures we arrive at and pass through to be greater tools for connecting to purpose and our heart’s greatest desires.   Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!
