Happy Fall, Movers! This week I have an amazing special guest on the show, my good friend and former colleague, Jim Farmer.

What's up, Movers?! We're back with another upbeat, positive jolt to your boring old week! Sorry for missing last week. A minor snafu with a scheduled guest spot got delayed at the last minute before there was time to record a back-up, so my sincerest apologies! With that said, WE ARE BACK! This week I get into the importance of articulating your origin story as a leader, and how critical being a great storyteller is to landing that big promotion, or just in life in general...

We've all heard the cliche, "when opportunity knocks..." but do we always open the door? Should we open the door to every opportunity that comes our way? This episode won't give you the answer, but it will definitely help you look at each opportunity that comes your way as just that, an opportunity...to connect, learn, etc. This week I welcome the most special guest, my lovely wife, Christine Joines...

Hey, all, just a short one for you this week to keep things fresh and consistent. Full disclosure, I had family in town and fitting in time to record was a challenge but we did it! In this week's episode I dive into a bit of perspective and how a short change of mindset can really change the way we look at everyday tasks and responsibilities. I hope you find it enlightening and helpful as you look at all the things you "get" to do in life. I also talk a bit about our Etsy shop...

Have you ever been scared? Of course you have! We've all experienced fear in our lives at some point. Have you ever failed at something? If you haven't, I sure want to meet you! Of course you have, we've all failed at something. Both of these things are human nature and completely normal. Atychiphobia is both of those things combined...the fear of failure...

This week, my wonderful son and newly published author, Jakob, joins me on the podcast to talk about his new book, Adventures on Dolphin Isle. Of course I'm a little biased here, but I think he is just incredible, and an amazing talent for publishing a book at only 10-years old. We also talk about his favorite inspirational quote and how to keep moving ahead during this time of uncertainty...
