Finding Brave

If you still think of LinkedIn as nothing more than a job site or somewhere you go to upload your online resume, now is the time to update and expand your approach! Today on the show, we welcome LinkedIn insider Jon Lyndon for a deep dive into the evolution of LinkedIn and why we should all be using it as a human connection tool and a pathway to opportunity at scale. Having spent nearly a decade at LinkedIn, Jon is an expert in how to leverage the true power of the platform. He is the founder and CEO of Lyndon Consulting, where he works with global companies and executive leaders on their LinkedIn strategy, helping them rethink how they show up, connect, and lead in a digital world. He also advises professional athletes transitioning out of sport, guiding them in building strong personal brands. In our conversation, Jon breaks down the biggest misconceptions about LinkedIn. He unpacks how only using it as a job search leads you to lose out on key opportunities and explains powerfully why we can all afford to share more on LinkedIn — and why sharing doesn't need to be inauthentic or boastful. Jon also offers his expert guidance on how to navigate LinkedIn when you've been let go from your job, and how to build greater trust, credibility, and clarity, so you're connecting with inspiring people and learning from them, while building a mutually supportive and enriching community. We also discuss the power of LinkedIn recommendations, how trust equals consistency over time, the importance of getting clear on the outcomes you want to achieve on LinkedIn, and Jon's transformative personal branding work with athletes. To hear the full scope of our conversation about LinkedIn and discover its full power as a human connection tool, be sure to tune in!

It creates a pathway to opportunity at scale." — Jon Lyndon [0:05:01] "When we are sharing facts and stories, and things that we've accomplished — if we have an outcome that we want to come from that, it helps us be authentic, and it helps us to be confident about those things because it leads into something rather than just sharing to share." — Jon Lyndon [0:18:33] "When you begin to share those in the right way, other people then attach to those things, and they're relevant because they say, 'Oh, I didn't know that about you, but this applies [to] my life because I'm going through this as well.'" — Jon Lyndon [0:19:14] "You never know when [LinkedIn] might become relevant, it might not be a layoff, but you might want to start a new business." — Jon Lyndon [0:22:59] "If you're working in corporate and you're trying to sell products and services, there [are] ways that you can do it in a human, authentic, thought leader way that is still pretty much an untapped opportunity on LinkedIn for a lot of people." — Jon Lyndon [0:43:43] "If you know the outcomes, and you're clear about what they are in any area of your life, then creating the pathway to get there becomes so much easier." — Jon Lyndon [0:50:18] Watch our Finding Brave episodes on YouTube!

The moment you choose to change your relationship to money is the moment you change every single generation ahead of you. In this episode of Finding Brave, top financial wellbeing speaker, multi-award-winning Financial Coach, and international author Catherine Morgan joins us to talk about a vitally important topic: when money feels dangerous and how to heal our survival response to wealth. A Financial Wellbeing Speaker, multi-award-winning Financial Coach, and international author of the bestselling book It's Not About the Money, Catherine presents a trauma-informed psychological approach to money. As the founder of The Money Panel®, Catherine trains financial professionals through her acclaimed Financial Coach Certification program, and works with consumers through empowering courses and retreats. Recognized as one of the top 32 female entrepreneurs by Business Leader, her expertise has been featured in a wide array of top media and her podcast It's Not About The Money is in the top 0.5% in the world. Catherine's journey into financial coaching began with her own realization of how emotions and money are deeply connected. She unpacks the hidden blueprint of abundance that we inherit, particularly from maternal relationships, and how these subconscious beliefs can impact our financial well-being. We also discuss the core beliefs that influence financial health, as well as the new paradigms of wealth, expansion, and contraction. Catherine sheds light on the powerful emotions of shame and guilt around money, how they manifest in the body, and the essential practice of reclaiming your worth beyond financial status. Finally, Catherine offers a simple yet transformative piece of advice that is relevant for everyone, no matter where they are in their financial journey. Through forgiveness work and deep self-acceptance, she reveals how we can release financial fear and step into a healthier, more empowered and loving relationship with money. If you're ready to shift your financial story and experience and embrace true wealth as it feels most heart-aligned for you, this episode is a must-listen.

Conflict is a part of life, whether it's in our relationships, workplaces, or even global politics, yet many of us either shy away from it or escalate it, leading to stress, resentment, and division. Today on Finding Brave, behavioral neurologist Dr. Joel Salinas joins us to discuss how we can navigate disagreement with confidence and resilience—and even turn it into a powerful tool for building stronger connections. Dr. Salinas is a Clinical Associate Professor of Neurology at NYU Grossman School of Medicine and the co-author with Robert C. Bordone, of Conflict Resilience: Negotiating Disagreement Without Giving Up or Giving In. In this fascinating book, Joel and Robert blend advanced conflict management strategies with cutting-edge neuroscience to introduce a simple yet powerful three-step framework for navigating everyday conflict. In this episode, Dr. Salinas reveals how conflict resilience rather than resolution can transform the way we engage with disagreement. He also explores the impact of social isolation, our fear of discomfort, and how avoiding conflict can ultimately weaken both personal and professional relationships, all while offering practical tools to navigate tough conversations with confidence, clarity, and compassion. Whether you struggle with difficult conversations or simply want to strengthen your relationships and your communication approach, this episode is filled with valuable insights to help you approach conflict with clarity, confidence, and bravery. Tune in now to start transforming the way you engage with disagreement. Key Highlights From This Episode: Understanding the surprising link between connection and conflict. [04:42] How social isolation and polarization contribute to conflict avoidance. [09:14] Reasons that we often see the other person as "the problem" in a conflict. [12:47] Finding a balance between setting boundaries and engaging in difficult conversations.[15:10] Insight into the three key tenets of deep listening. [18:18] An example that illustrates how to navigate everyday conflict with resilience. [22:56] How to phrase questions in a way that invites productive conversation. [26:04] The uncertainty of conflict outcomes (and why that shouldn't stop us). [28:16] Practical strategies to help you rewire your brain to handle conflict better. [31:02] Unpacking the benefits of conflict resilience and how you can start practicing today.

We want to take a stance that's more about agency and empowerment, starting with what you have control over: – your own relationship with conflict." — @JoelSalinasMD [0:14:24] "A generous question begets a generous response – [Make] sure you're asking questions with the intent of understanding, not questions to harm the other person, put them down, or be overly defensive." — @JoelSalinasMD [0:22:18] "Our brains evolved to be fortune-telling machines. It takes all our past experiences and memories to make predictions – and uses those predictions to make choices and take action – to help us survive and avoid danger. Out in the Savannah, that could have been helpful, – but it can be tricky when your brain is telling you interacting with somebody across lines of difference is a threat." — @JoelSalinasMD [0:29:22] "It can be helpful to find the [bigger, better offer (BBO)]: what is the consequence or risk of me not engaging in this [difficult] conversation?" — @JoelSalinasMD [0:41:35] "Part of building this mindset and skill set is a process of reprogramming and rewiring your brain." — @JoelSalinasMD [0:44:18] "Our brains evolved to be fortune-telling machines.

What if the key to better relationships, deeper influence, and personal growth wasn't about fixing problems, but about acknowledging and accepting others? Today on Finding Brave, we sit down with Dr. Caroline Fleck, a licensed psychologist, corporate consultant, and adjunct clinical instructor at Stanford University, to explore the transformative power of validation. Dr. Fleck is a recognized expert in Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), specializing in working with high-conflict individuals and organizations. Her insights on psychology and human behavior have been featured in major outlets such as The New York Times, Good Morning America, and The Huffington Post. Her new book, Validation: How the Skill Set That Revolutionized Psychology Will Transform Your Relationships, Increase Your Influence, and Change Your Life, challenges conventional communication habits and offers practical tools for fostering meaningful and productive connections. In this episode, Dr. Fleck breaks down why validation is often misunderstood and why it's a crucial skill for improving our personal and professional relationships. She shares how it differs from agreement, fosters emotional safety, and can lead to real behavior change. Using real-life examples, she demonstrates how validation can be a game-changer in parenting, leadership, and even high-stakes corporate environments. We also explore the science behind validation and discover how mindfulness, understanding, and empathy form the foundation of meaningful human interaction. Tuning in, you'll learn about the eight levels of validation, common mistakes people make when trying to be supportive, and simple shifts in communication that can dramatically improve trust and influence. Whether you're tackling workplace challenges, parenting struggles, or relationship conflicts, this episode is packed with powerful, real-world strategies you can start using today! Key Points From This Episode: [04:19] Why validation is not about agreement but acknowledging another's experience [12:10] Acceptance as a powerful tool for change, especially in high-conflict situations. [14:00] Powerful validation skills that aren't commonly taught (but should be). [16:36] Three key elements of validation: presence, understanding, and care. [22:10] How validation helped Dr. Fleck reconnect with her daughter after cancer treatment. [26:23] Making change easier by helping people accept their emotions as valid. [29:48] A CEO's success story using validation to navigate workplace conflict. [36:37] Reasons that problem-solving often backfires when loved ones just want to be heard. [41:15] How validation fosters emotional safety and encourages open communication.

What does it take to create lasting change in an organization that is rooted in dignity, justice, and care? Too often, leadership and consulting focus on quick fixes instead of investing in deeper and necessary cultural shifts. Today, we explore how organizations can foster true transformation by embracing a more holistic approach and prioritizing what truly matters. Our guest, Ora Grodsky, is a mission-driven consultant and author of the new book Justice, Love, and Organizational Healing. With over 25 years of experience, she helps social justice organizations repair harm, strengthen leadership, and align with their values. Drawing from a unique background in acupuncture, nonprofit management, and organizational development, Ora brings a holistic, human-centered approach to change. In today's eye-opening conversation, Ora breaks down her approach to transformational consulting. She sees organizations as living systems where true change requires healing, connection, and cultural awareness. Quoting the Talmud, she reminds us: "You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it." This belief guides her work, helping organizations move beyond surface-level fixes to deep, justice-driven transformation. She also explains how dominant cultural forces, including white supremacy, shape workplace dynamics and decision-making, before unpacking how organizations can begin to address and heal from these damaging patterns. By aligning values with action, she helps leaders create workplaces that don't just function but truly embody justice and care. Tune in for her powerful insights on how to build lasting, meaningful change together! Key Points From This Episode: Ora's unique background ranging from acupuncture to nonprofit management. [02:40] Insights from a profound quote in the Talmud included Ora's book. [06:38] Ways that Ora's background in acupuncture has shaped how she consults. [11:51] The three different types of consulting and the details of transformational consulting. [15:01] How Ora chooses which organizations to partner with: shared values and goals. [18:43] Types of organizations that Ora typically works with and the issues she addresses. [22:00] Where to start in the process of undertaking organizational change. [23:53] The hardest, most intractable problems Ora has come up against. [27:53] Recognizing how the culture of white supremacy has shaped organizational cultures. [31:12] Ora's holistic understanding of systems, how it differentiates her as a consultant, and the top thing she wants listeners to take from her book.

You are not obligated to complete the work, but neither are you free to abandon it." — Ora Grodsky [0:06:40] "That's how I see transformational consulting: [it means] creating spaces within which people can have the kind of process where they deeply connect to self, deeply connect to each other, and see a wider view of the system that they're in and how we got here." — Ora Grodsky [0:16:51] "Only looking at the single bottom line of 'Where's profit?' is what has gotten us to the verge of potential extinction with climate disaster; because we're looking for cheaper and faster. As long as we're [always] looking for cheaper and faster – we are not going to be here for too long." — Ora Grodsky [0:19:26] "I believe in working with people at all levels of an organization, but I do believe, as the crass saying goes, a fish rots from the head." — Ora Grodsky [0:24:19] "Urgency is really often something that comes with an attitude of dominance and subjugation, which I think is the root of white supremacy – the idea that some people deserve to 'have' and deserve resources and deserve to be human, and some people don't." — Ora Grodsky [0:28:36] "That dominance and subjugation ideology [at] the root of white supremacy is [often] what drives urgency: 'We need to be better. We need to accumulate more. We need to do better, faster.' There's so much pressure – for everyone, that letting go of that urgency is really hard." — Ora Grodsky [0:28:55] Watch our Finding Brave episodes on YouTube!

This is my strength." – Cheryl Porter [0:06:33] "If we taught all of our children the full range of what it means to be human, then there wouldn't be this false gender binary around what a man is and what a woman is in terms of the business context, communities, politics, or education." – Mark Greene [0:07:26] "If we see serendipity as 'smart luck,' as something where we have to see something in the moment and connect the dots, it's about proactivity towards a random event versus blind luck, [which] is being born into a good family or something." – Dr. Christian Busch [0:08:06] "'Start with heart' – means learning to notice when your motives are off-track. When under threat, our motives become short-term. It's about saving face, being right, winning, [and] punishing. It's all about dealing with immediate emotional threat." – Joseph Grenny [0:10:36] "Choosing happiness isn't denying sadness, anger, and challenges. It's saying, 'Okay, I have all of that but I'm not going to give any more power to [negativity] than is absolutely necessary.'" – Bronnie Ware [0:12:31] "How we feel about money is a reflection on how we feel about ourselves. We give a lot of our power away by defining our sense of self-worth directly to money." – Catherine Morgan [0:12:58] "If there's one thing that's important for confidence at the moment of truth, it's your willingness to look at what you have in your – mental bank account and say, 'I am enough.'" – Dr. Nate Zinsser [0:15:07] "I believe that the more we write in present tense, the more we live in present tense, the more present and less tense we are." – Bruce Gelfend [0:17:14] "When we hear the word sensitive, a lot of us think fragile, weak, or maybe someone who overreacts. That is not what sensitive means – Being sensitive means that you take in more information from the environment around you and you do more with it." – Andre Sólo [0:19:05] "People are a little bit more intuitive than they may even realize. We can point to certain – times in our life where, whether it was conscious or unconscious, – there was a deep conviction of the heart, something deep within us that – compelled us to act." – Robb Holman [0:21:29] "It's like opening the fridge and smelling something is off. You go – 'That cheese has gone moldy. Ew, gross! Let's get it out of there.' [Shame] is that obvious once you start to notice it." – David Jurásek [0:23:12] "Our feelings don't just happen by themselves. They're a byproduct – of our subconscious beliefs and we can override our subconscious beliefs with conscious intention." – Finnian Kelly [0:24:05] "We have the chance to change the story we're rehearsing and not focus on the thing that's not getting us what we want but focusing on a different origin story that could help us get what we want." – Seth Godin [0:26:33] Watch our Finding Brave episodes on YouTube!

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts! "You have a lot of knowledge and expertise, but if you continually doubt the strength of your opinions, or the importance of sharing your ideas, you are going to lose the ability to shape where your career is going." – Kathy Caprino Confidence is key as you step into being the most powerful version of you, and this is something I feel compelled to talk about ​given my particular lens as a former corporate VP, therapist (focused on systems and communication), researcher, and now in coaching and training with thousands of executives and professionals across 6 continents. Thousands of people struggle with confidence issues, from not feeling "good enough," to being insecure about their skills and abilities and suffering from imposter syndrome to experiencing "perfectionistic overfunctioning" that negatively impacts our health, well-being, life satisfaction and quality of life. From working with teams, I know, too, that both new and seasoned managers and high-potential folks at startups and other types of organizations often fear they don't know nearly enough to do their jobs well, and their confidence is flagging. This is why today I'm ingfocus on the 5 ways that your lack of confidence is hurting you, and what you can do - practically and strategically - to overcome this challenge and build your confidence and self-trust now so that it doesn't impact your success and professional fulfillment in the future. In this episode, I reference my recent Forbes blog post, 5 Ways Your Lack Of Confidence Is Apparent And Hurting You, which I encourage you to read. If you find the information helpful in identifying and overcoming a lack of confidence in yourself, I would be so happy if you would share the article and episode episode with your teams, colleagues and friends who could benefit. Highlights from this Episode: How questioning your own ideas is holding you back right now in so many different ways [6:16] The importance of recognizing the environment you are in before sharing your ideas, and an example from my own career that highlights this [8:37] How the 7 damaging power gaps impact your confidence, courage to grow and your self-respect and self-acceptance today [13:02] What agonizing over your performance and how others think of you will interfere with what you need to do to experience more success and reward [14:22] Some places where you can get outside help if you're feeling as if you're "blowing it" in the workplace, and how this will help you move forward in your career [16:27] What to do the next time you find yourself being hypercritical of someone, plus what I've seen from my experience as a therapist that explains why this is happening [17:44] An example from my own life as a parent when I truly learned that it's not possible to be perfect, and nor should we strive to be [20:55] Where jealousy and the feeling of being threatened by others' success often stems from, and how to begin leaving these emotions behind so that you can move forward [24:23] Action steps to take to help you determine what you are good at and how that matters [29:40] What unshakable success requires and why so many of us don't have it [34:02] For More Information: Kathy's Post, 5 Ways Your Lack Of Confidence Is Apparent And Hurting You https://kathycaprino.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathycaprino https://www.facebook.com/ElliaCommunications https://twitter.com/kathycaprino Resources Mentioned: American Association for Marriage and Family Therapy Kathy's 6-Session Career Breakthrough Coaching Program & Career Path Self-Assessment Kathy's TEDx Talk, Time To Brave Up Kathy's Forbes Interview with Bestselling Author Gretchen Rubin, How Bestselling Author Gretchen Rubin Uncovers Life-Changing Behaviors And Touches Millions Kathy's interview with Dr. Nate Zinsser, Developing a Confident Mind: Key Strategies for Experiencing Unshakable Success 7 Signs Of Perfectionistic Overfunctioning – How To Recognize It In Yourself And Change It Finding Brave interviews with Dr. Zinsser (Parts 1 and 2) * * * * OTHER KEY RESOURCES: KATHY'S DIGITAL CAREER COACHING CLONE – 'KATHY CAPRINO AI" – IS HERE!

[6:05] "Greater awareness equals greater choice, and it is really important to get to the bottom of what you need to be aware of now." [17:38] "Kind, loving, and generous people are usually the same way to themselves. They're accepting and they're forgiving of themselves." [18:08] "What consistently repeats is not random. We co-create, we co-sustain, and we attract behavior." [19:17] "Do something empowering when you feel jealous of others. Look at what it really means, and then do something concrete." [29:30] "If you don't recognize what you are good at, then you can't talk about what you are good at. If you can't talk about it and share it and put it on LinkedIn, put it on your resume, discuss it in your interviews and talk to your boss about it, you are leaving so much success, money, reward and advancement on the table." [30:15] "It's not bragging to talk about what you're good at and the outcomes that you've created." [31:33] Watch video versions of my interviews on Finding Brave!

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts! Please note: This is an updated "Holiday Selection" re-release of Episode #193. "If the pace of change is ever faster, ever faster, ever faster, and we already feel like we don't have enough time to keep up or we are overwhelmed or we're not able to show up fully, then we need a big reset because the future does not play out well if we continue to buy into not just what society says, but also what this pace of change is doing." – April Rinne With the amount of change happening daily in workplaces around the globe, adopting the right mindset can be key for employees, managers and leaders alike. Today's deeply inspiring Finding Brave guest breaks down the concept of having a "Flux Mindset," which helps individuals and organizations consistently view change as an opportunity, not a threat, by being clear and grounded in their values. Ranked one of the world's "50 Leading Female Futurists" by Forbes, April Rinne is a change navigator: she helps individuals and organizations rethink and reshape their relationship with change, uncertainty, and a world in flux. A World Economic Forum Young Global Leader, she is a trusted advisor to organizations ranging from Airbnb, Nike, Intuit, the World Bank, the Inter-American Development Bank, NESTA, Trōv, AnyRoad, and Unsettled, as well as governments spanning Singapore to South Africa, Canada to Colombia, Italy to India. April is the author of the inspiring book Flux: 8 Superpowers for Thriving in Constant Change. A graduate of Harvard Law School, April is a futurist, advisor, global development executive, microfinance lawyer, investor, mental health advocate, certified yoga teacher, globetrotter (100+ countries), and insatiable handstander. She also harnesses very personal experiences with flux, including the death of both of her parents in a car accident when she was 20. Through her travels and tragedy, vision and values, global perspective and grounded sense of purpose, April helps others better understand how we see, think about, struggle with, and ultimately forge positive relationships with change. In this enlightening episode, April shows the tremendous benefits you can realize by rethinking and reshaping your relationship with change and uncertainty. Once you understand what change is and learn how to embrace it, opportunities will begin to appear and allow you to be more prepared for the future, whatever comes your way. Highlights from this Episode: April's definition of "Flux" and the role that incorporating a Flux Mindset plays in helping people adapt to an ever-changing world [7:10] Her personal life journey to Flux, plus some of the key questions that she asks herself to maintain perspective [12:47] How April is contributing by serving the world what it needs right now [15:31] What you can do to begin seeing the "invisible," and the reasons why individuals tend to miss seeing so much around them that would be extremely beneficial to see [28:37] Her tips for bringing the unconscious to the conscious and why we need to [32:01] Ways to address and resolve your fears and detach from future outcomes at the same time [35:07] What managers and leaders need to do differently in a world of Flux [40:30] Where so many professionals are going wrong when it comes to mindset [42:23] Why April considers herself a futurist, and what it really means to be one [44:35] For More Information: April's Latest Book, Flux: 8 Superpowers for Thriving in Constant Change https://aprilrinne.com/ https://twitter.com/aprilrinne https://www.linkedin.com/in/aprilrinne https://www.instagram.com/aprilrinne/ https://www.facebook.com/aprilrinne Kathy's Resources Mentioned: KATHY'S DIGITAL CAREER COACHING CLONE - 'KATHY CAPRINO AI" - IS HERE!

Thank you for listening to our Finding Brave show, ranked in the Top 100 Apple Career Podcasts! Please note: This is an updated "Holiday Selection" re-release of Episode #210. "Sit with the idea of what it would mean for you to take on a worthy goal, become the best version of yourself, and unlock your greatness by taking on the hard things. I'm asking not just for you, but I'm asking for me and my world, because it's a chance for all of us to live a better life." – Michael Bungay Stanier I'm very excited to share my "Holiday Selection" re-release of one of our most popular episodes, featuring the great insights of Michael Bungay Stanier. As an exciting new year is coming, with its fresh energy of possibility, what would it mean for you to find and set a worthy goal, something that is thrilling, important, and daunting at the same time? Today's special Finding Brave guest reveals the 3 key components of a worthy goal, what it really means to commit to one, and why we don't have to travel this path alone, because we can ask for support along the way. Michael Bungay Stanier helps people be a force for change. He's best known for his book The Coaching Habit, which has over a million copies and has thousands of 5-star reviews online. His latest book, How to Begin, helps people find the clarity and courage to take on a Worthy Goal and start something thrilling, important and daunting. He founded Box of Crayons, a learning and development company that helps organizations move from advice-driven to curiosity-led. They've trained hundreds of thousands of managers to be more coach-like and their clients range from Microsoft to Gucci. Michael left Australia about 30 years ago to be a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, where he shares that his only significant achievement was falling in love with a Canadian. Michael now lives in Toronto, having spent time in London and Boston. Balancing out these moments of success, he was banned from his high school graduation for "the balloon incident," was sued by one of his Law School professors for defamation, and his first published piece of writing was a Harlequin Romance-esque story involving a misdelivered letter called The Male Delivery. I encourage you to read Michael's latest (and very enlightening) book and let us know what lessons you glean from it. How has your energy been shifted, and what did you learn? Please feel free to reach out to Michael or me with your feedback and questions about what we discuss in this episode. Here's to your joyful pursuit of your worthy goal! Highlights from this Episode: The worthy goal that Michael has for his latest book [5:44] Why he is expecting a big shake-up for the coaching industry in the very near future [7:07] What Michael means when he says that we unlock our greatness by taking on the hard things [13:52] How his childhood influences have contributed to the way that he now sees the world [17:36] Some of the ways that Michael "zags" when others "zig" [20:03] His approach to coaching and helping others do the thing that really matters to them [21:33] Where true growth will happen, plus the 3 components that make a worthy goal [23:45] What you can expect to gain by reading Michael's latest book [25:44] A powerful exercise that shows the importance of getting support from others while pursuing your goals [26:33] A reminder of why we always need to celebrate our victories, no matter how big or small they may be [32:01] For More Information: Michael's Latest Book, How to Begin: Start Doing Something That Matters [With Bonuses] https://www.mbs.works/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelbungaystanier/ https://www.instagram.com/mbs_works/ https://twitter.com/mbs_works https://www.facebook.com/mbs_works-113849977032317/ All of His Michael's Books His Podcast & YouTube Channel Michael's Free Course, The Year of Living Brilliantly Manifesto for a Moral Revolution: Practices to Build a Better World by Jacqueline Novogratz Kathy's Resources Mentioned: STAY TUNED – 'KATHY AI" IS COMING SOON!

Can you rush to action and give advice a little more slowly? [6:10] "Part of why people would hire you if you're a coach is because you've seen stuff, done stuff, and know stuff. It's kind of rude not to share what you think could be of best service to that client." [8:11] "I want people to be ambitious for themselves and for the world. I want them to be the best version of themselves, but I also want them to contribute to a better world." [14:07] "I'm wired in a way that I've always been self-confident, and I've always had a willingness to zag when other people zag." [19:58] "I'm just trying to get people started. I can't take them to the end of the journey, because the journey will evolve and change, but can I get them across the threshold in taking the first steps." [28:08] "Ask yourself what minimum success looks like, but you're also allowed to dream about what big success looks like as well." [31:28] Watch video versions of my interviews on Finding Brave!
