#24 This is All Temporary - with Hugh Macleod and Jerry Colonna

Full notes at Reboot.io/podcast See Hugh's special Reboot inspired cartoons on the show notes linked above. Hugh MacLeod has tapped into his own heart and his own woundedness so that he can speak to the hearts of people and organizations to inspire, to question, to laugh and to grow. Hugh joins Jerry in this episode of The Reboot Podcast to discuss how how he got his start, what motivates leaders, and how to work (and lead) from the heart. (Hint: often the "how" lies in identifying our own wounds). Hugh's Cartoon - "I am not delusional. I am an entrepreneur." - http://gapingvoid.com/blog/2009/10/18/im-not-delusional/ Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

#23 With a Little More Care… - Sherman Lee and Jerry Colonna

Full notes at Reboot.io/podcast "With a little more care, a little more courage, and, above all, a little more soul, our lives can be so easily discovered and celebrated in work, and not, as now, squandered and lost in its shadow." - David Whyte Sometimes we spend so much time looking at where we aren't or where others have gone that we don't fully appreciate where we are and how much we've grown on the journey. A year ago today, Reboot didn't have a podcast. A year ago today, Sherman Lee was staring down a draining bank account, a shaky business model, and a crippling fear: if I fail, I won't be able to provide. A year later we sit with our 23rd podcast episode, a return visit from one of our first guests, Sherman Lee, and an opportunity to appreciate Sherman's journey and growth since we last spoke.

#22 Does Anyone Really Know What They are Doing? with Sharon Salzberg & Jerry Colonna

We're often in (or feel we're in) uncharted waters - a place where making things up as we go is a necessity. Feeling lost in those places can be anxiety-inducing. We feel incompetent. We feel shameful. We can end up feeling that everyone has figured it out but me. But how true is that, really? And perhaps the better question--how can owning my own anxiety in these areas help me step more fully into my authentic self and even increase my capacity for happiness? We are honored to welcome one of our key teachers at Reboot, Sharon Salzberg, to the podcast. In this conversation Sharon and Jerry discuss Sharon's entrepreneurial path, a new definition of success (and failure), authenticity, loving kindness, and the question: Does anyone really know what they are doing?

#21 The Pathless Path - with Bill Morrision and Jerry Colonna

"I would love to live like a river flows, carried by the surprise of its own unfolding." John O'Donohue The ups and downs, the hills and valleys, the ebb and flow, the rollercoaster - there are many ways to describe the emotional journey of being an entrepreneur. There are also many, many ways we try to straighten out and control the journey. We look to "optimize" for the peaks and minimize the valleys. But what if we're looking at it all wrong? In this episode of the Reboot podcast, Jerry is joined by Bill Morrision, founder of Constellation Behavioral Health, which offers specialized treatment programs for alcohol and drug addiction. With Jerry, Bill explores the deep and complicated connections between his purpose, his mission, the peaks, the valleys, and the fear of going off plan.

#20 Investors are Human Too - with Bijan Sabet and Jerry Colonna

full show notes: reboot.io/podcast "Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself." - Leo Tolstoy It sounds so obvious, perhaps even tongue in cheek, but it also seems to be forgotten enough that it needs to be said aloud again: Investors are human too. They, like the entrepreneurs they back, can ride the rollercoaster of emotions that often come with starting a company. In this episode Jerry Colonna is joined by Bijan Sabet of Spark Capital to explore some of the tensions that often arise between investors and entrepreneurs, the emotional perspective of the investor, and the importance of purpose and artistry. As a bonus, it includes Jerry reading a blessing at the end. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

#19 Building a House of Belonging - with Tanisha Robinson & Jerry Colonna

For more go to reboot.io/podcast What's it like to find your path of authentic service in the world? What if you could use the pain of the past, a pain of not knowing where you fit in, of not knowing where you belong to propel you toward work that makes a difference? What if you could create a place of belonging? Well, it might look a lot like what Tanisha Robinson is building with Print Syndicate. Started just 2.5 years ago with 8 people, Print Syndicate now has over 140 employees and will generate more than $20M in revenue this year. But the company isn't just about shirts and home goods, it's a place where people (including a black, gay, woman from a Mormon family of 7 in a small town in Missouri) have a place to self-identify and a place to belong. As Tanisha shares, running a company fueled by your passion to make the world better is both exhilarating and heart wrenching. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

#18 Taking your Seat - with Jules Pieri & Jerry Colonna

see more at: http://reboot.io/podcast Fear is a familiar and powerful co-founder in startups. We do our best to quiet it, shut it down, deny it. Perhaps our biggest struggle is simply acknowledging it. But what if you not only acknowledged your fear, but leaned into it? What if you let go of your own hope to control things, and go back to building and leading from a place of love? Jules Pierri, cofounder and ceo of the product launch platform the Grommet, has done just that for her growing team of 55 employees. In this conversation, Jules and Jerry discuss what it was like to embrace the grit of her Detroit working class upbringing, face head on the fears of being a non-prototypical entrepreneur building a new kind of company in one of the scariest economic times in recent memory. Through it all, Jules has been able to move forward with courage to build an organization where people can feel loved and do great work in the process. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!

#16 Mindful Partnerships -with Jerry Colonna and Blueprint of We

see more at: http://reboot.io/podcast What if your agreements with partners and co-workers were more focused on the characteristics of how you come together, related to one another, and work together, instead of what happens when sh*t hits the fan? What if your co-founder agreement came from a place of hope instead of fear? Zelle Nelson and Maureen McCarthy are co-founders of The Center For Collaborative Awareness and our guests for today's conversation. They've created a collaborative process called "The Blueprint of We," used to build and sustain healthier, more resilient business and personal relationships - those that start from a place of hope and openness. They join Jerry to share how they came together, how the process works, and how this work can impact your relationships and your organization. Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts!
