What better guest to kick it off the 3rd season of the podcast than with Jimmy Diresta, host of the hit Netflix series, “Making Fun”, and YouTube sensation.
Jimmy is an artist, TV personality, video producer, and educator that describes his life-long passion as being a “maker”.
Inspired by the works of Warhol, Picasso, Steven Tyler and Mariah Carey (to name a few), Jimmy always knew that a maker is what he was born to be. In this Season 3 premier episode, Jimmy takes us on his journey of where he began, where he plans to go, and how the unforeseen and unknown are the perfect places to find your inspiration..
Listen in to this week’s episode to learn more on how Jimmy earned his well deserved title, “The Godfather of Makers.”

Have you ever felt like you needed more? More money, more prestige, more status, and more accomplishment? In this week’s podcast episode Tara McMullin, the author of What Works: A Comprehensive Framework to Change the Way We Approach Goal-Setting, helps us peek behind the curtain. Listen in as she unpacks the programming creating this lack of satisfaction and gives us important clues about how to de-program ourselves. Tara will help us focus on being in process with ourselves instead of seeking ever more, ever more.
Join Tara McMullin and Dr. Amanda Crowell as we discuss:
In the United States, we have always lived with the history and realities of racism.
Whether we have lived with it as an active part of our life or have had the privilege to ignore it and deny it, it has shaped our understanding of our country and each other.
Since racism has always been a loaded, hot-button, triggering topic to discuss, many leaders have flatly avoided talking about it. Since the summer of 2020, however, organizations are realizing that this issue is not going away.
Workers want organizations that are inclusive and equitable. As such, the avoidance strategy that has allowed leaders to manage this issue in the past is emerging as the biggest problem of all.
Fortunately for all of us, Gena Cox has taken the time to think deeply about how to open the door to these important conversations.
Listen in for compassionate, insightful, and practical advice to help all of us navigate conversations about creating inclusion in the workplace.

We are excited to bring you another encore presentation of a popular episode of Season 2. We hope you enjoy!
As human beings, we are constantly focused on the doing, doing, doing, and Jeanette advises us that if we could just take a “power-pause” and listen more, we can gain a better understanding of what we need to accomplish our Great Work.
Jeanette believes if we can listen more to ourselves, we can begin to understand what we need right now and truly begin to feel to engage in what Jeanette calls “mental listening”. We, as humans, are amazing, we are here to solve problems, and the things we worry about are the things we care about the most.
If we can pause for a moment, and shift the “care for” to “care about”, we can understand that solving problems is not just about needing time off or time to get away, it’s about learning to “un-worry”. It is only then that we discover “self-care isn’t really about self…it’s about care.”
