Personalization Isn’t Optional: Biotype Influence with Andrew Colombini

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Wed, 15 Apr 2026 04:00:00 +0000

Andrew Colombini, sales expert and biotype specialist, shares how understanding human wiring can transform the way we sell, lead, and connect. Drawing from his work with high-level sales professionals, Andrew explains why most “personalization” falls short—and what it actually takes to truly meet someone where they are. He breaks down his biotype influence system, a method rooted in biology and behavioral patterns, and shows how reading subtle physical and behavioral cues can reveal how someone thinks, decides, and builds trust. We explore: Why most sales conversations fail before they even begin The difference between personality and biological wiring How to identify key signals in the first minutes of a conversation Why “objections” are actually subjective trust gaps How top performers go deeper instead of pushing harder What it really means to create alignment—not just close deals Andrew also expands this beyond sales, sharing how leaders can use biotype awareness to place people in the right roles, communicate more effectively, and create environments where individuals feel seen—and perform at their best. If you’ve ever felt that traditional sales tactics miss the mark, this conversation offers a different lens: one where influence starts with understanding how people are wired at their core. About Andrew Colombini: Andrew Colombini from Florida is a sales and influence strategist who has spent 15+ years studying why qualified prospects don't buy and what the top 1% of closers do differently. Through the study of psychology, neuroscience, and personality systems, Andrew discovered a pattern most sales professionals miss: the sale is determined long before the close. This insight led him to develop the Biotype Influence System, a methodology that teaches professionals to identify a prospect's biological decision style, known as their BioType, within the first 5–15 minutes of a conversation, adapt their influence approach accordingly, and guide prospects through resistance so naturally that objections rarely surface. His clients, coaches, consultants, and high-ticket sales professionals selling programs from $3,000 to $30,000, using the Biotype approach on average increase their closing rates by 10–30%, shorten their sales conversations, eliminate ghosted prospects, and enroll more aligned clients who stay. www.amplifymywhy.com www.facebook.com/groups/biotypebusiness https://www.amplifymywhy.com/ebook-blueprint Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Racing Ahead of Your Vision with Shauna Wu (part 2)

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Wed, 1 Apr 2026 00:00:00 +0000

The shift that changed everything? Moving from “I hope I’m chosen” to “I choose.” Shauna Wu shares how stepping out of waiting mode—and into ownership—redefined how she shows up: as a peer, a builder, and a strategic partner. When you stop asking for permission and start acting with intent, opportunities stop feeling scarce—and start becoming something you create. This conversation goes deeper, as Shauna opens up about the harder parts of her story—and the grit that came from it. Her perspective is clear: resilience isn’t abstract, it’s built through showing up, doing the work, and deciding—again and again—who you’re going to be. It’s a reminder that you don’t need to carry every part of your past forward, but you can choose what shapes your future. We also explore leadership through example—how the way you live, decide, and act creates ripple effects far beyond you. From raising a bold, self-directed daughter to building a legacy in male-dominated spaces, Shauna brings it back to one simple truth: don’t be afraid to work for what matters. Because in the moments you feel like giving up, that’s often when you’re closest to the result. About Shauna Wu: Shauna Wu, based in Seattle, is a marketing executive, motorsport partnership strategist, and founder of The Shauna Wu Project, where she helps brands and media platforms build meaningful partnerships in global motorsport. With more than 20 years of experience, she previously helped scale Smartsheet from startup to $1B+ ARR while launching award-winning partnerships with McLaren Formula One. Today she advises brands, athletes, and creators on sponsorship strategy and storytelling in the fast-moving world of motorsport and media. She’s also the creator of Driven to Disrupt, a program empowering women to build bold careers in sports marketing. www.shaunawu.com www.linkedin.com/in/shaunawu Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Racing Ahead of Your Vision with Shauna Wu (part 1)

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 26 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

From motorcycles to Formula 1, Shauna Wu turned passion into a global career by owning her value and building powerful, non-transactional relationships. This episode reveals how clarity, long-term vision, and intentional choices shift you from chasing opportunities to choosing them. From scaling high-growth marketing engines to building global partnerships in motorsport, Shauna Wu operates at full speed—on and off the track. What started as a personal passion for motorcycles evolved into a family legacy, with her daughter racing—and winning—against seasoned competitors. That same intensity now fuels her work in Formula 1, where she’s carved out a space by aligning her strengths with an industry that matches her pace. But behind the momentum is a clear philosophy: if you don’t believe in your own value, no one else will. Shauna shares how owning her expertise—and articulating it—transformed conversations into unexpected opportunities. Her approach to “networking” is anything but transactional; instead, she builds ecosystems rooted in curiosity, contribution, and long-term thinking. It’s not about asking for a job—it’s about becoming someone others want in the room. What stands out is her intentionality. From defining a bold 10-year vision to protecting her time and energy with precision, Shauna treats both as assets to invest wisely. The result? She’s no longer chasing opportunities—she’s selecting them.

The Leader’s Story Advantage with James Moffat

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Wed, 11 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

Stories shape how people listen, remember, and decide. This conversation explores how leaders can use storytelling to communicate value, connect emotionally, and turn real client experiences into messages that convert. A former engineer turned global sales leader, James Moffat makes a compelling case that storytelling is one of the most practical leadership tools available. Drawing on decades in technical sales and leadership, he explains why many professionals lose their audience by focusing on features, slide decks, and technical detail instead of the human problem they are trying to solve. Through a simple framework, he shows how leaders can step back, understand real challenges, and communicate value through stories that connect — and convert. Rather than leading with products or services, the conversation shifts to real examples: a problem, the solution applied, and the results that followed. The discussion also reveals why many leaders struggle to grow their business or articulate their value. Often the issue isn’t a lack of expertise but overlooking what already exists — successful clients, proven results, and experiences that can become powerful narratives. Along the way, you’ll see why most people are natural storytellers without realizing it, and how better questions and real stories can create conversations that resonate and build lasting relationships.

From Autopilot to Fully Alive with Regina Huber

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Wed, 4 Mar 2026 00:00:00 +0000

You can be successful and still feel flat inside — this episode is about reclaiming aliveness without burning your life down. You can build a successful life and still feel like something is missing. This episode is for leaders, entrepreneurs, and high-performing professionals who’ve achieved a lot, yet sometimes feel flat, restless, or quietly disconnected from themselves. When your days run on routine, performance, and responsibility, it’s easy to slip into autopilot. You function well, you deliver results, and on the outside everything looks solid. And still, there’s that subtle question in the background: Is this really it? Not because your life is wrong, but because something in you knows that this can’t be the full experience of being alive. In this solo episode, Regina Huber explores how self-limitation and self-sacrifice are created over time, why desire is not a problem but a compass, and what it actually takes to move from wanting change to being ready for it. This is not about burning your life down or throwing away what works. It’s about reclaiming choice, inner freedom, and aliveness on top of the success you’ve already created. If you’ve built a life that functions well but doesn’t fully light you up anymore, this conversation will meet you right where you are and gently open a different possibility."

Listening to Your Inner Leader Compass with Portia Ntsele

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 5 Feb 2026 05:15:00 +0000

Portia Ntsele’s return home to KwaZulu-Natal wasn’t an escape — it was a conscious way to reset, reconnect, and recalibrate. After years of building businesses, raising a family, and navigating corporate and entrepreneurial worlds, she reached a moment where the old rhythm no longer fit. Instead of forcing outcomes, she chose to listen: to the inner voice; to the knowing; to the quiet redirection that so many leaders ignore when life starts pushing back. What followed was a powerful recalibration of identity, purpose, and self-leadership — rooted in intuition, grounding, and deep inner alignment.

Portia breaks down why real leadership doesn’t start with strategy, titles, or plans on paper — it starts within. She shares how following her inner compass led her into unexpected opportunities, including a corporate career she never planned for, and how learning to pause, listen, and realign became her most powerful leadership practice. From barefoot grounding and cold showers to silence, breath, and intuition-led decision-making, Portia reveals why most people are not stuck — they’re simply out of alignment. This conversation is a reminder that the strongest leaders aren’t driven by pressure. They’re guided by clarity.

About Portia Ntsele:

Dr Nomasonto Portia Ntsele from KwaZulu-Natal, South Africa, is a self-published author of three books, an intuitive entrepreneur, serial entrepreneur, wife and mother of three boys, who also has a farming project.

In her business she helps women become the best version of themselves because she's of the view that when you teach a woman, you teach a nation.

The AI Upskilling Imperative with John Munsell

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 22 Jan 2026 05:15:00 +0000

John Munsell’s path into AI leadership didn’t start with hype — it started with pattern recognition. After decades in software and digital marketing, he saw early on that AI would become the next defining shift in how businesses operate. When ChatGPT launched publicly, he knew this was more than just another tech trend — it was a full-scale transformation. He sold his agency, rebuilt his company from the ground up, and spent a year working hands-on with executives to understand their real challenges. What he discovered? Most leaders don’t truly understand what AI is, how fast it’s evolving, or how deeply it will reshape their organizations. Today, John helps leaders close that gap with clear frameworks, practical training, and a strategic approach to conscious AI adoption.

John breaks down the real reason AI adoption fails inside organizations: fear, silence, and lack of strategy. When leaders don’t communicate, employees assume the worst — and when leaders don’t understand AI, they block it entirely. John explains why AI adoption is not a tech issue, but a leadership and change management challenge. He shares why delaying AI training is one of the most dangerous decisions a company can make right now. Through powerful real-world examples, he shows how organizations either catch the wave or get buried by the avalanche. And he makes it clear: leadership awareness must come first — before policies, tools, or platforms.

About John Munsell:

John Munsell from Louisiana has been involved in digital marketing, software development, and artificial intelligence (AI) for over 40 years. As CEO of Bizzuka, John led the company to multiple appearances on the Inc 5000. In 2022, he rebuilt Bizzuka from the ground up shifting its focus to helping business leaders understand and accelerate their adoption of AI. John has dedicated thousands of hours to mastering AI technologies. This led to the creation of the AI Strategy Canvas® and Scalable Prompt Engineering™.

Awakened Leadership: Heart & Authentic Power with Anja Žibert

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 1 Jan 2026 05:15:00 +0000

Awakened, authentic leadership starts with self-connection.

Anja Žibert from Slovenia explores how true leaders guide energies rather than control people, recognizing that everyone is a sovereign being. She explains how triggers and perceived weaknesses are invitations for self-reflection, and how embracing both light and shadow fosters authenticity. Anja shares how expanding perspective—asking “what if?”—opens possibilities and helps leaders see beyond limiting beliefs. Using tools like HeartMath and Human Design, she guides leaders to connect with their heart intelligence, align mind and heart, and step fully into their power. Through practical exercises, leaders discover answers within themselves, creating coherence, clarity, and freedom to lead authentically.

About Anja Žibert:

Anja (Free Spirit) Žibert is a purpose mentor, former corporate headhunter, and energetic catalyst who guides high-level professionals and entrepreneurs through the threshold where old identities break and true mission begins.

Feedback That Builds Trust and Growth with Emma Collyer

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Wed, 17 Dec 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Leaders want to energize their teams while offering honest feedback that truly helps people grow. Yet many avoid difficult conversations or soften the message so much that clarity gets lost. Emma Collyer explains why clear, kind communication is the real driver of growth, and how intention, tone, and simple phrases set the right stage. She highlights cultural nuances, curiosity, and self-observation as essential parts of effective feedback. Emma shares how two-way feedback rebuilt trust in a struggling team and why people often hesitate to give feedback to their leaders. We explore how small issues escalate when avoided and why timely conversations beat annual reviews every time. Emma also touches on what to do when someone gets upset—why brief discomfort is better than unresolved problems, how asking for a recap supports understanding, and when to pause and return later. She emphasizes that leaders must ask for feedback themselves, mix honesty with genuine appreciation, and have direct, curious conversations when feedback is ignored.

About Emma Collyer:

Emma Collyer is the owner and principal coach of Aspire Executive Coaching, where she helps leaders turn everyday interactions into powerful, two-way conversations that spark trust, creativity, and results.

We talk about training your mind like an elite athlete: visualization with feeling, incantations, and working with your subconscious.

We explore fear as the quiet limiter behind high performers who still doubt they are good enough. You will hear how to reframe adversity as situations or obstacles, step out of your convenience zone, and walk toward the fire. We unpack self-leadership, the Law of the Lid, and why your team will not rise higher than you do.

If you are ready to treat your next decision like game day and prepare in the dark so you can lead in the light, this conversation is for you.

The Power of 10 Tracks – Leading Through Connection with Sean Roberts

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 20 Nov 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Sean Roberts from France reveals how a simple idea — inviting guests to share 10 songs that shaped their lives—became a space for connection, vulnerability, and self-discovery. Music, he says, is a common language that bridges cultures and experiences, opening doors to conversations that go far beyond playlists.

Through this creative lens, Sean shares lessons on self-belief, authenticity, and trusting the flow. He reflects on saying no when something doesn’t align, staying true to his concept, and finding balance in a world full of noise. Leadership, for him, is less about expertise and more about genuine presence, curiosity, and heart.

Sean wanted a safe, substantive space — less noise, more meaning. A timeless “iconic jacket” sparked the idea, then evolved into 10 life-defining tracks. Like the jacket, music cuts across politics and identity to create common ground.

We explore inner safety, self-worth, and leadership that starts from within — where confidence, curiosity, and connection become the true rhythm of growth.

About Sean Roberts:

Sean Roberts is a global connector and digital health attaché with a passion for innovation at the crossroads of health, culture, and technology. He bridges worlds through storytelling and music as the creator and host of 10 Tracks — a podcast where guests share their lives, memories, and moments through the lens of ten songs. The podcast explores the music and stories that connect us all across borders, cultures, and generations.

Leading Through Your Genius with Allie Jones

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 6 Nov 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Leadership coach Allie Jones from Iowa explores how Patrick Lencioni’s Six Types of Working Genius can transform how teams function and thrive. We discuss how aligning people with their natural “genius zones” fuels engagement, impact, and joy at work.

Allie breaks down the six types — from ideation to implementation — and how knowing where you thrive (and where you struggle) can change the way you lead, collaborate, and create results.

The Working Genius Framework is not just a self-awareness tool, but a practical roadmap for team harmony and productivity. Allie explains how many teams over-index on certain types of genius while neglecting others, which can lead to frustration and stalled execution.

Allie gives tangible examples of how leaders can rebalance teams, tailor job descriptions, and rethink hiring by identifying which geniuses are missing from the mix.

Her takeaway is powerful: well-rounded teams outperform well-rounded individuals every time.

Tony Thelen shares how true leadership means guiding people and organizations to places they wouldn’t reach alone, with courage, confidence balanced by humility, and a focus on impact that extends beyond profits to people, customers, and communities. The real measure of leadership, he says, is moving the world forward while achieving success and a sense of fulfillment as a leader.

The foundation of a team that truly works is trust—without it, everything else crumbles. Transparency, facing bad news together, and debating ideas without harming relationships all strengthen that trust. Real trust shows when leaders resist micromanaging and let people do the work they’ve been entrusted with. As Tony Thelen explains, leadership is about sensing, adapting, and responding—so teams thrive and leaders experience fulfillment in the process. It’s not about balancing work against life, but aligning priorities so both support who you want to be. The real win is designing a life where energy, relationships, and work all feed into fulfillment.

Build Authority, Hire Right, Scale Smart with Kasim Aslam

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 2 Oct 2025 05:15:00 +0000

From aspiring actor to entrepreneurial leader, Kasim Aslam’s path wasn’t linear. In this Rise to Lead episode, he shares how a Hollywood pursuit gave way to building one of the world’s top Google Ads agencies, how delegation became the key to scaling rather than micromanagement, and how selling Solutions 8 opened doors to new ventures such as Driven Mastermind and Pareto Talent. He also reflects on the founder’s paradox—leaders often being their own biggest growth blockers—and the importance of thought leadership as a true traffic engine.

Kasim explains how positioning himself as a thought leader fueled the launch of Pareto Talent, where the first 25 clients came almost entirely from two simple posts. Without paid ads or cold outreach, he built a seven-figure business on trust and referrals, proving that resonance matters more than reach. He also shares his “hourglass of niching” model—starting broad, narrowing to a profitable core, then expanding again—which ultimately drove Solutions 8 to an eight-figure exit. He stresses that authority comes from consistency, not intelligence.

True thought leaders are the ones who keep showing up, sharing openly, and even embracing mistakes. To illustrate, he tells the story of Ivan, a freelancer who grew from a $1,000-a-month assistant into the CTO who managed his multi-million-dollar exit and is now his business partner—a reminder that extraordinary talent can be found anywhere.

About Kasim Aslam:

Kasim Aslam from Arizona is serial entrepreneur who has built six 7- and 8-figure businesses, including two successful exits. He is the co-founder of Driven Mastermind and the creator of Digital Marketer's Paid Traffic Certification. Last year, he exited Solutions 8—one of the world’s top Google Ads agencies—and co-founded Pareto Talent, a company dedicated to helping entrepreneurs reclaim their time by matching them with world-class executive assistants. Kasim is now preparing to release HIRE, a groundbreaking book that distills the systems he used to build his companies.

Designed to be the ultimate guide on hiring and delegation, HIRE offers a proven framework for scaling a business without burning out. He has also authored three bestselling books and was named one of the top 50 Digital Marketing Thought Leaders in the U.S.

Four Stages to Amplify Your Message with Kimberly Crowe

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 25 Sep 2025 05:15:00 +0000

How do you start speaking as an entrepreneur—even if you’ve never done it before? Kimberly Crowe breaks down four types of stages to build your visibility and reputation:

Practice Stage – Speak for growth, learning, and experimentation.

Speak-to-Sell Stage – Share your message while inviting action.

Paid Speaking Stage – Offer exclusive content or training for a fee.

The key? Authenticity beats perfection. Mistakes are human, stories connect, and frameworks guide you without scripts. Your knowledge and experience can be transformative to others just a step behind you.

This episode shows you how to create your own stage, share your genius, and amplify your impact—even starting from scratch.

Rewiring Leadership Through Neurocoding with Dominika Staniewicz

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 18 Sep 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Brain coach Dominika Staniewicz shares how neuroscience has evolved to become practical and accessible for all. Drawing from her own journey overcoming seizures and mental health challenges through a neuroscience-based approach, she explains neurocoding—a method to rewire the brain’s default patterns into consciously chosen behaviors. Dominika highlights how these tools, once reserved for a privileged few, are now available to help anyone improve brain health, reduce anxiety, and foster better leadership through self-awareness and mental rehearsal.

Leaders face constant uncertainty, and managing their own stress is key to not passing fear onto their teams. Practical tips include making clear, focused decisions instead of juggling everything at once, and avoiding choices when anxious since it impairs brain function. Sleep is crucial—lack of it severely reduces accuracy and focus. Female leaders can especially benefit from trusting intuition—a brain function typically more evolved in women. Mixed teams perform better by combining different strengths.

Lastly, spending time in nature helps reset the brain and reduce decision fatigue, boosting clarity and calm.

True influence begins before you speak—through your presence, energy, and integrity. By training your mind to visualize successful outcomes, you program yourself to act confidently and authentically, shaping how others respond even before you say a word.

About Dominika Staniewicz:

Dominika Staniewicz, M.S., a dual-certified Elite Neuroencoding Specialist and Brain Health Coach, and the #1 Kindle New Release author of “The Magic of Dreaming Big, Acting Small, and Achieving Success.” Known as Coach D, she’s a neuroscience ninja blending brain science with high-impact strategy and magnetic charisma.

A founding member of the Neuroencoding Institute, Dominika has advised presidents, led national labor negotiations, and taught on two continents at universities. With over 5,000 hours of corporate training, she brings a depth of expertise rarely matched.

Honored as Woman Entrepreneur of the Year, she’s taken stages across Europe and the U.S., inspiring change with every word. But what truly sets her apart? Her process-first, human-centered approach to sustainable success without the fluff.

Dominika is not just a coach she’s a movement, igniting clarity, confidence, and courage in every woman she meets.

Vision Beats Tech to Unlock Growth with Larry Mandelberg

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 21 Aug 2025 05:15:00 +0000

When small business owners struggle to adapt, it’s often not just a tech issue—it’s a purpose and awareness issue. Larry Mandelberg explains that knowing what value you offer, who needs it, and how to deliver it is what truly positions you to pivot. Without clarity of purpose and vision, it’s hard to make strategic decisions under pressure.

Larry outlines key warning signs that a business is being undermined by its own success: resistance to change, duplicated work, roles shaped by personal preferences instead of organizational needs, and recurring problems that never get fully resolved. He stresses that these issues often stem from fixing symptoms, not root causes. Inconsistent treatment of clients is another red flag—one that demands clear, documented policies to ensure fairness and avoid confusion as the company grows.

As businesses grow, leaders must rely on middle management and shared vision to maintain alignment. Mandelberg presents a proven framework for sustainable growth, rooted in human behavior. He emphasizes self-awareness, emotional intelligence, and coaching as keys to unlearning habits that no longer serve.

About Larry Mandelberg:

Larry Mandelberg from Bordeaux, France, solves complex problems.

This consultant, speaker and author represents the 5th generation of his family’s business and 170 years of experience with organizational success.

Larry has launched four start-ups, led a merger, and performed a successful turnaround. (That’s evidence of six complex problems, solved.) A prolific writer, Larry has published more than 80 columns.

As a sought-after speaker, Mandelberg has delivered more than 60 business-changing keynotes and workshops. He has been a guest on television and radio programs talking about business and entrepreneurship.

His new book, Businesses Don't Fail, They Commit Suicide presents 23 years of primary research into why businesses fail from an entertaining and thought provoking perspective.

From Empty Streets to Hard Truths with Barry Walton

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 7 Aug 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Filmmaker and adventurer Barry Walton shares how failure became a foundation for growth—and why the stories we tell ourselves are rarely the full truth. He explores the idea that truth isn’t something we own but something we test and refine in community. From early childhood setbacks to major film projects that didn’t go as planned, Barry reflects on reframing failure, pushing through doubt, and the courage it takes to truly listen.

Barry and I dive into the nuanced tension between persistence and knowing when to pivot. We explore how decision-making isn’t always logical—it’s often guided by heart, spirit, and the deeper questions we’re willing to ask ourselves. We also touch on how language shapes perception, and why shifting our focus change everything.

Barry shares his experience filming Empty America during the 2020 lockdowns—capturing a nation in eerie stillness. From deserted highways to ghost-town cities like Vegas and NYC, the compliance was staggering. What began as a trip to the Utah desert turned into a haunting cross-country quest for truth. The silence raised questions many were too afraid to ask. Many bonded over one key factor, and that bond makes it hard to look back and question. Barry likens it to unaddressed trauma: one moment can reshape a life, especially when no one wants to revisit it.

About Barry Walton:

Barry Walton from Florida is an Emmy Award-winning producer and author whose work spans documentary, commercial, and narrative storytelling. As the founder of Endless Media, he’s spent his career bringing impactful stories to life for brands, sports franchises, and networks like FOX Sports and IPG | Mediabrands. His documentary and branded content have earned multiple industry accolades, including the Golden Matrix Award. As an author, Barry has published two books — Empty America, a haunting exploration of the U.S. during the first global pLan-demic, and his latest, The Unknown Adventurer, a deeply personal journey that explores love, God, philosophy, and life’s biggest questions. Barry’s work — whether on screen or on the page — is driven by a commitment to truth, curiosity, and storytelling that connects us to something greater.

Rebecca shares practical ways to manage up effectively, like sending concise end-of-day reports that highlight key outcomes and next steps, ensuring transparency and proactive communication. She emphasizes improving existing systems rather than waiting for change, following through on commitments, and adapting communication to fit different leadership styles. Understanding your manager’s preferences and keeping messages clear and relevant builds trust and strengthens your leadership impact. Rebecca highlights that occasionally feeling overwhelmed is normal, but with the right tools and prioritization, you can stay focused despite distractions. She stresses prioritizing tasks aligned with company goals and being proactive with your time to avoid shiny-object syndrome.

Radical Love Leadership with Amber Mikesell

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 17 Jul 2025 05:15:00 +0000

What happens when love becomes a radical act of leadership? In this moving episode, Amber Mikesell from Arizona shares the soul-stirring moment that led her to walk away from a high-level executive role in pursuit of something deeper—leading from the heart. We talk about the taboos around love in business, the courage it takes to live in alignment with your soul, and how true leadership starts with inner resonance. If you've ever felt the disconnect between success on paper and meaning in your heart, this conversation is for you.

Amber introduces “heartstorming,” an approach that taps into emotion and purpose before ever touching a whiteboard for a brainstorming process. She shares how leading with heart creates buy-in, drives creativity, and sparks passion in ways traditional leadership rarely can. We also dive into the risks of leaving heart out of decision-making—and why playing it safe might actually be the bigger risk.

When the inner critic gets loud, how do we hear the quieter truth of our hearts? Amber reveals how most people operate with just 2% positive thoughts—and offers simple tools to shift that pattern. We explore how to move from self-judgment to self-compassion, why one powerful question can shift everything, and how curiosity can prevent unnecessary conflict.

About Amber Mikesell:

Amber Mikesell is a globally recognized visionary leader and educator. The Founder and Chief Lead Minister of Suivera, a multi-faith nonprofit organization igniting a global movement of heart-centered leadership, her career spans 113 countries and has impacted over 1,000,000 lives. Amber blends ancient wisdom and modern science to empower human potential. She holds advanced certifications in traditional wisdoms such as Ayurveda and TCM, and modern knowledge with a Bachelors in Interpersonal and Organization Communication and a Masters in Quantum Sciences, allowing her to speak to the science and spirituality of love as the catalyst for healing and connection.

Raising Leaders Through Play with S.S. Coulter

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 3 Jul 2025 05:15:00 +0000

What if the key to tomorrow’s leaders lies in yesterday’s playtime? When S.S. (Shannon Sue) Coulter told her stepkids to go outside and play, she didn’t expect them to come back five minutes later saying, “We don’t know what to do.” That moment kicked off a 16-year mission to help families reclaim play as a vital foundation for real-life skills. In this episode, she shares how unstructured, imaginative play naturally builds leadership traits—from collaboration and negotiation to critical thinking, creativity, and confidence—and why tech is quietly robbing kids of all of it.

S.S. explains how her app helps tired parents easily inspire kids to play by offering quick, fun activity ideas that build both body and mind. By tying activities to points and rewards, she taps into kids’ natural motivation while encouraging healthy habits. She emphasizes that play fosters essential soft skills like confidence, resilience, and problem-solving, which prepare kids to show up stronger as adults—and why it’s urgent to fix what technology has taken away.

S.S. highlights how play nurtures creativity, collaboration, and self-discovery, even indoors with simple items like pillows. She also shares how her The Fassa Tails book series models leadership through animal characters.

Each story includes activities and talking points to engage kids and parents in meaningful conversations about leadership traits.

About S.S. Coulter:

S. S. Coulter is here to play—and she’s your go-to for FUN. She helps busy parents feel extraordinary about their parenting. Her children’s book series, The Fassa Tails, creative activities, and the upcoming activity app offer screen-lite, easy ways to get kids playing, imagining, and moving. Her mission: to help the next generation build balance in mind, heart, and body—and develop a healthy relationship with technology—all while simply being kids and having fun.

What Makes You a Fearless Leader with Chelsea Goucher

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 19 Jun 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Chelsea speaks candidly about the illusion of leadership and the dynamics behind power. Some rise through integrity — but many are propped up by ego, fear, or a hunger for recognition. She unpacks how people can become “yes men,” not necessarily out of malice, but from the lure of status and acceptance. We explore the deeper cost of aligning with systems that reward compliance over character. And we touch on the idea that even those dynamics can be seen through a neutral, spiritual lens.

Chelsea reminds us that fear isn’t just fed to us — it’s something we often agree to carry. She speaks powerfully about personal responsibility and the unconscious ways we opt into societal programming. From her own experience overcoming addiction, Chelsea offers rare insight into true self-leadership — and how transmuting fear can radically shift our lives. She also shares what drew her to facilitating psychedelic experiences — not as an escape, but as a tool for integration, clarity, and authentic transformation. Sometimes deep shifts happen more easily when we allow playfulness and presence. So we’re not suggesting a specific path — just inviting curiosity about what’s possible.

About Chelsea Goucher

Chelsea Goucher from Tennessee is an intuitive coach and psychedelic facilitator interested in the intersection of consciousness expansion with personal development and collective evolution. A former corporate saleswoman who left her career to pursue Truth and a felt mission to liberate others, Chelsea is committed to the free exploration of ideas, non-hierarchical community, and assisting her clients to expand their perception of Self and become happier and more fulfilled individuals. Chelsea also teaches yoga, enjoys the performance arts, and is an open book on her experiences of overcoming addiction, co-dependency, and abusive relationships.

Chosen: Claiming Confidence & Voice with Karen Gray

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 5 Jun 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Karen Gray’s path to coaching began in a rodeo arena, where helping her daughter build confidence uncovered Karen’s own need for healing. That journey grew into a passion for guiding others — from rodeo queens to corporate leaders — to find their voice and own the stage. Karen also shares how the stories we tell ourselves can distort reality — and how choosing better interpretations can shift everything. Confidence, she reminds us, starts with how you see yourself.

That moment of self-awareness Karen describes—seeing intimidation as a signal, not a stop sign—is powerful. It turns comparison into curiosity, and fear into fuel. By leaning into relationships that once felt daunting, she opened doors to growth and greater confidence. It’s a reminder that discomfort often points us toward expansion. And that insight naturally leads to a process: her VIP framework, which starts by reconnecting with what truly matters—our values, intentions, and purpose. In her upcoming book Chosen, Coach Karen Gray explores how childhood experiences—like being adopted and internalizing unspoken fears—shaped her and other people’s voice and their path back to self-trust and speaking up.

About Karen Gray:

Karen Gray from Texas is the CEO/Founder of Gray Legacy Coaching and President of Texas Business Women. Her journey—shaped by her adoption, trauma, and healing, taught her that our past doesn’t define our worth; it’s our choices that build our legacy. As a Professional Certified Coach, she is considered to be a secret weapon for executive women as she ignites unshakable confidence, empowering them to break through self-doubt and glass ceilings to claim their indisputable worth and value. Using her ViQ (Value Intelligence) Method and Energy Leadership principles, she intuitively guides women on a journey of mindset mastery. With over 30 years of leadership experience and 16 years of coaching, Karen helps women create lives and legacies filled with purpose, abundance, and joy.

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Fri, 30 May 2025 11:30:00 +0000

Greg Weinger from Oregon opens up about hitting a wall in senior leadership despite a stellar resume—and why achievement alone wasn't enough, especially as an introvert. He shares how executive coaching and Susan Cain’s Quiet helped him rethink what it means to lead. Introversion became not a weakness to fix, but a trait to understand and leverage. Greg describes mentoring introverts and learning to create space for their strengths. He highlights how engineering teams often process feedback differently—and why that matters.

Stillness isn’t weakness—it’s where power lives. Introverts can command a room without raising their voice. When silence is used with intention, it draws attention and earns trust. Presence—true, grounded presence—is a form of leadership that transcends volume. The real strength lies in responding, not reacting, even in tough conversations. This episode redefines power, and it may not be what you’ve been told. It will shift how you see leadership, personality, and team dynamics.

Greg shares communication strategies for introverts, highlighting the value of building one-on-one relationships and preparing in advance to earn respect and influence in group settings, and we also chat about the nuances of introversion, ambiversion, and personal growth.

About Greg Weinger

Greg Weinger has spent over 20 years proving that introverts and unconventional thinkers can thrive in leadership. A seasoned product and technology executive, he has helped scale startups 10X to $70M+ in revenue, leading teams that build market-leading digital products and drive business growth.

Discipline doesn’t have to feel like a dirty word. In this energizing conversation, martial arts master Jason Flame from California joins me to explore what discipline really means –and how it can become a supportive structure rather than a source of pressure.

He breaks down why “balance” can be misleading—and how tuning the different parts of our lives, like instruments in a jazz band, creates true harmony. From coaching athletes to executives, Scott shares how small adjustments can lead to big transformations.

Unlocking Exponential Money Potential in Your DNA with Hugh Massie

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 1 May 2025 05:15:00 +0000

The Role of Behavior, Belief and the Energy of Money

What if your next breakthrough hinges on how you interpret your earliest experiences? In this thought-provoking episode, I sit down with behavioral strategist Hugh Massie from Georgia (U.S.) to explore how our wiring—formed by age three—influences how we lead, decide, and handle money.

We talk about money as energy, not just math, and how stress reveals the thoughts that either limit us or push us forward. Hugh shares why exponential growth can feel easier than small steps—and how clarity comes when we strip away distractions.

The Power of Self-Awareness, Compassion, and Strategic Leadership

We also dive deep into the connection between self-leadership and effective team leadership. We discuss how self-awareness impacts leadership growth and how confronting personal challenges and past experiences helps build trust within teams. Hugh emphasizes that compassion is a crucial leadership trait, and we explore how understanding ourselves allows us to better understand others. We also talk about how financial behavior, leadership styles, and innovation drive organizational success, and why understanding these dynamics is key to creating lasting value.

Creating Conscious Leaders with Ron Stotts

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 24 Apr 2025 05:15:00 +0000

What does it take to lead from a place of deep awareness, presence, and purpose?

In this episode, I sit down with Ron Stotts from Washington to explore how emotional healing, inner child work, and conscious self-reflection shape our ability to lead meaningfully. We talk about how early patterns—often formed in childhood—shape adult behaviors, and how leaders can break those cycles by tending to what’s been buried.

From emotional backlog to whole-brain thinking, we unpack the path toward becoming a more evolved, intentional leader—one who creates impact by being fully present, curious, and connected.

What happens when leaders stop looking outside and start tuning in?

Ron shares how dissolving the illusion of separation and reconnecting with breath leads to wholeness, presence, and real leadership. We explore how modern leaders often disconnect from their inner wisdom and what shifts when they begin to breathe, feel, and heal. He says: “The only thing I ever need to do is breathe, be curious, and present.” This isn’t just philosophy—it’s the path to genius-level leadership and meaningful business transformation.

About Ron Stotts:

Ron is a three times bestselling author with a PhD in psychology and a Dr. of Chiropractic. He's explored the depths of ancient wisdom and the latest in psychological, neurological studies, and leadership as he guides entrepreneurs and executives into the highest levels of conscious leadership.

Speak Their Language, Build Real Connections with Amos McCoy

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 17 Apr 2025 05:15:00 +0000

The Communication Shift Leaders Need

Connecting with others starts with understanding yourself—how you communicate and how you prefer to receive information. Amos shares how tools like DISC profiling can help you adapt your style to better connect with different personalities. But beyond frameworks, true connection comes from being real, telling stories, and most importantly—listening. Not just hearing words, but actively engaging, responding, and showing that you care. Even in a virtual world, body language and energy matter. If communication is just about pushing a message without considering the other person, connection is lost.

Vulnerability Creates Direct, Honest Conversation

Vulnerability plays a crucial role in leadership, fostering real connections and growth. Amos shares how acknowledging mistakes and seeking team input builds trust. He highlights the importance of direct, honest conversations—whether in leadership, relationships, or letting an employee go.

Avoiding tough discussions only delays the inevitable and limits learning opportunities. A great example from youth soccer coaching shows the power of clear communication: identifying where someone is, where they need to be, and working together to bridge the gap. Leaders must ensure their message truly lands and give people space to find solutions before making decisions.

About Amos McCoy

Growing up in Lemasters, Pennsylvania, his first job at Snider's Elevator taught him grit and the power of relationships. Those early days also sparked his curiosity about leadership, watching how trust, respect, and effective communication could inspire people.

His career path, from humble beginnings to leading operations across the U.S., was anything but linear. Along the way, he faced challenges like resistance to change and misaligned teams, yet those obstacles shaped his leadership philosophy—one built on influence, empathy, and helping others to reach their potential.

Through trial and error, he developed strategies to double market shares and foster collaboration in complex environments. Today, as a certified Trainer, Coach, Speaker, and DISC consultant, he draws on these experiences to guide others. He helps leaders overcome fear, build trust, and drive meaningful change. His mission is to share actionable insights grounded in his own transformation, proving that no matter where you start, success is possible with resilience and the right tools.

From Stage to Community: Leadership & the Arts with Nkumu Katalay

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 10 Apr 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Turning Vision into Collective Action

Leadership guides activities toward meaningful goals. In communities, leaders act as the "conscious mind," turning scattered efforts into clear projects. Nkumu Katalay applies this both in community work and in his artistic projects — a revolving group shaped by his vision and changing musicians. This flexible structure mirrors New York’s fast pace, teaching him to guide without rigid control. His Lifelong Project Band trains new leaders while sharing Congolese culture. By treating his band as a project, Nkumu fosters both musical and personal growth through shared vision and collaboration.

Leading with Clarity, Adapting with Grace

Nkumu emphasizes treating performances with professionalism — showing up early, coordinating attire, and adjusting to each venue and its audience.

He balances guiding his group while allowing for individual expression. Managing diverse personalities and adjusting to different settings — from Harlem's Shrine to the Apollo Theater — strengthens his leadership. Even during his return to Kinshasa after 28 years, he gathered local musicians to create new music, showing how his leadership transcends borders and continues to connect communities.

About Nkumu Katalay:

Nkumu Katalay is an artist, speaker, multi-instrumentalist, and social activist committed to promoting humanity.

Born in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, he now lives in New York. Nkumu emphasizes the significance of Congolese cultures in modern history and founded the musical group "Life Long Project," which highlights positive narratives of Congolese culture through music and educational initiatives. He also established an Afro-Congolese dance program, offering weekly dance activities throughout New York for all ages in schools, businesses, and cultural centers.

For Nkumu, music is a means to navigate the world and unify his identity's fragments. He is fascinated by musical notes and rhythms, exploring their movements and patterns alongside human cultures. He believes that musical notes are cultural fragments in sound, and their interactions create music, similar to how cultures seek alternative expressions. His musical journey is deeply rooted in the Congolese "Mbonda" or "Ngoma" (drum) and dance traditions.

Why Consistency & Daily Habits Matter with Clarence Ferguson

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 3 Apr 2025 05:15:00 +0000

In this episode of RISE TO LEAD, I talk with Coach Clarence Ferguson about discipline, mindset, and personal growth. He shares why weighing yourself daily builds awareness, the power of consistency, and how small habits lead to big results. We discuss taking ownership, adapting to challenges, and learning from failure instead of fearing it.

Coach Clarence emphasizes that understanding the deeper "why" behind our actions is essential, whether it's related to habits or goals. He shares how uncovering the root causes, such as trauma or emotional protection, can shift behavior. Discipline is not effortless, and maintaining habits requires setting realistic goals and self-reflection. He advises checking in with others and reassessing goals consistently, while forgiving oneself for falling short. Self-punishment is counterproductive and erodes self-esteem, so focusing on progress is key.

We also discuss the power of questions over affirmations in unlocking new possibilities. Asking questions can help reframe beliefs, making them more aligned with achievable outcomes.

About Clarence Ferguson:

Coach Clarence is a visionary leader who is transforming the lives of men and women over 40, assisting them to live their absolute best lives. He's a true embodiment of what it means to conquer the three fundamental pillars of life: fitness, finance, and mindset.

Building Trust Through Vision, Collaboration, and Authentic Leadership

Jenny Alday Townsend from Florida shares how a clear vision and goal have driven her company’s success, fostering a culture of trust and collaboration. By inspiring students and teachers to take ownership of education and enabling her team to teach with autonomy, Jenny creates a non-judgmental, empowering environment. She emphasizes the importance of mutual reliance, balancing leadership responsibilities while allowing employees to grow independently. Jenny reflects on learning to step back, giving her team space to own their journeys while maintaining strong, trusting relationships.

Applying the "Stroke It" Method to Business Success

Jenny shares how the “Stroke It” method goes beyond validation—it’s about personalized acknowledgment, fostering a workplace where employees feel genuinely appreciated. She starts with an intake form to learn each team member’s preferences, from favorite coffee to love languages. This allows her to tailor gestures of recognition, like surprising a committed team member with their favorite treats and a handwritten note. Jenny also adapts her approach to individual preferences for praise, using tools like DISC analysis to determine if public recognition, a private note, or a casual conversation is most effective.

Beyond gestures, transparency and trust are central to her leadership philosophy. By openly communicating challenges, like financial constraints, Jenny ensures her team understands the bigger picture while maintaining engagement

About Jenny Alday Townsend:

Jenny Alday Townsend is a keynote speaker, podcaster, Amazon Best Selling author, and thriving businesswoman focused on inspiring individuals to achieve balance in their professional lives and marriage.

Vince talks about how AI is revolutionizing businesses across industries. For example, it also offers new ways to engage with customers.

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 13 Feb 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Embracing the Five Pillars of Leadership

In this episode, I speak with Bernie Borges from Florida about his approach to leadership and the vital role of self-awareness in shaping leadership styles. We explore how leaders can better support their teams by focusing on the five key pillars of life: health, fitness, career, relationships, and legacy. Bernie discusses how leaders, who understand and fulfill these pillars for themselves, can lead with empathy, creating an environment that nurtures both personal and team growth. He shares insights from his research on fulfillment versus happiness and emphasizes the importance of providing resources that help employees thrive in all aspects of their lives.

Building Connections through Vulnerability and Holistic Leadership

Leaders can build deeper connections with their teams by openly sharing aspects of their own fulfillment journey. This vulnerability fosters authenticity and relatability, helping close the gap between leader and team. When leaders are bold enough to be human, it strengthens trust, loyalty, and overall team engagement. By focusing on the holistic view of their team members and fostering empathy, leaders can challenge conventional thinking and create an intentional culture that drives sustained engagement and innovation without alienating those who prefer the status quo.

Borges partners with leaders at organizations to design and implement tailored strategies that foster a more fulfilled and thriving multigenerational workforce.

Combining spirituality with science, Michelle explores the transformative process of alchemy as a means of personal growth and self-actualization.

Michelle highlights the stages of transformation as a cyclical process of personal growth, explaining the essential phases:

Purging: Letting go of physical and emotional objects that no longer align with your identity.

Dissolution: Confronting feelings, beliefs, and subconscious patterns that hold you back.

Separation: Analyzing what you want to keep, what to discard, and what new things to embrace.

Conjunction: Bringing together initial ideas or actions (like a first draft), though it's a work in progress.

Michelle also discusses the natural tendency of humans to prefer familiarity over uncertainty due to deep-seated neurological wiring. She emphasizes the importance of trusting intuition while navigating transformation, using alchemy as a map for personal and leadership growth.

Leaders can embrace these cycles of change to guide teams through challenges and foster meaningful growth.

Mastering Delegation & Leadership Transitions with Scott McCarthy

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 23 Jan 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Shifting Leadership Mindsets for Lasting Impact

In this episode, Scott McCarthy from Ontario, Canada, shares how his military experience influences his leadership approach today. He discusses the unique leadership cycle in the military, where roles change every 2-3 years, and how this mindset applies to any leadership position. He emphasizes the importance of preparing for leadership transitions and establishing processes that outlast individual leaders. His leadership philosophy focuses on creating lasting change—not on a leader’s temporary presence, but on the continuity of the team’s success.

Delegation Done Right: Letting Go to Lead Better

Scott underscores that delegation is more than handing over large tasks; it's a continuous process we engage in daily, from asking someone to do dishes to using Zoom for this conversation. The essence of delegation is authorizing others to make decisions, which frees up leaders to focus on higher-level strategic thinking. He emphasizes the importance of shedding the ego, which often blocks delegation, by realizing that others may handle tasks better or differently. Scott also introduces his framework: starting with understanding intent—what needs to be achieved—and the desired end state—where we want to be. This approach enables teams to take ownership and act with greater autonomy.

Building Strong Leadership Habits for Success

Scott also shares practical habits for leaders to thrive, like integrating a daily morning routine. These habits help leaders maintain mental clarity, elevate productivity, and improve overall well-being, ultimately benefiting both themselves and their teams.

About Scott McCarthy:

Scott McCarthy is the Chief Leadership Officer at Moving Forward Leadership. Scott’s leadership journey ignited early, as a young visionary eager to direct and strategize. His prowess led him to the Canadian Army, where he swiftly rose through the ranks, commanding an 80 soldier platoon at 24 and a 200-member Logistics Squadron at 33. A firm believer in the universality of leadership skills, Scott advocates for delegation as a key to organizational success and teamwork as the heart of high performance. His philosophy is clear: leaders must create a lasting legacy that endures beyond their tenure. Now, as a senior Canadian Army officer and Chief Leadership Officer at Moving Forward Leadership, Scott continues to inspire through his podcast, sharing wisdom from two decades of military experience. His message is a clarion call to all aspiring leaders to embrace their potential, lead with purpose, and craft a legacy that stands the test of time.

Want 100% Freedom? Take 100% Responsibility! with Brian D. Ridgway

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 2 Jan 2025 05:15:00 +0000

Find true freedom, peace, and power

In this episode, I’m joined by Brian Ridgway, the Spellbreaker from Hawaii, who shares his powerful journey from a self-help addict to living in what he calls "heaven on earth." Brian reflects on a turbulent upbringing, decades of searching for answers, and a near-death experience that transformed his perspective on life and self-responsibility. He experienced his awakening at 42, where he moved from understanding concepts like “everything is energy” and “all is one” to embodying them fully. He explains how embracing 100% responsibility unlocks true freedom and power.

Why presence & breathing?

Brian shares his insights into presence and breathing. He explains that being present is the key to unlocking freedom and peace, and how not being present has people live in a state of suffering. He reveals the simple but powerful practice of a specific way of breathing to shift into the present moment. He also points out that until you are truly present, you will continue to live life by default, making presence the path to true empowerment.

The one question that makes all the difference

Brian emphasizes that everything happening is ultimately for your benefit; it’s happening “for you,” even if it may seem to be happening “to you.” By asking “how is this for me?,” you shift from perceiving life as random to seeing it as an opportunity for transformation you created for yourself. This is how you become a true leader of yourself and your life, and how you can inspire others to do the same.

About Brian D. Ridgway:

Beyond outdated self-help, endlessly rehashed, superficial "positive thinking" approaches, and incomplete airy-fairy spiritual approaches, liesthe next level: The Level 5 Paradigm and "Spellbreak" Technology, by Brian D. Ridgway. Among the ranks of great speakers delivering truly world-class content, Brian D. Ridgway brings something that is refreshingly original: His LIVE “Spellbreaks.”A "spell" is a mental, emotional and/or psychological state, often beyond our awareness or control. These unconscious spells are what underlies and creates a persons "triggers" - and their reactions to those triggers.

In interviews, and in his work, Brian invites members of the audience to experience the power of Spellbreaking by sharing one of their unresolved, long-standing life-issues. He then helps them to dissolve their perception of the problem and helps them to permanently transcend that issue LIVE, in a matter of minutes. Even more incredible, due to the powerful energetics of Brian's work, when the subject has their breakthrough, everyone in the audience experiences their OWN variation of the breakthrough.

Brian D. Ridgway helps people eliminate the illusion of problems and access their Infinite Intelligence ? ever-present guidance and limitless power - to create the body, health, business, wealth, relationships, life and WORLD of their dreams.

Going from SucKcess to Success with Enrique Acosta Gonzalez

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 14 Nov 2024 05:15:00 +0000

In this episode, Enrique Acosta Gonzalez from Florida shares his powerful story of navigating leadership challenges during his early years in the Navy. He reflects on the complexities of leadership, especially when success is perceived differently by others. Enrique describes how a leader who appeared highly successful to some was causing personal turmoil for him. He introduces the concept of "sucK-cess," where external success can mask internal brokenness. This experience led him to explore the true meaning of success – one that aligns both internal fulfillment and external achievements. As Enrique shares personal moments, he highlights that real success is defined by meaningful relationships and the fulfillment that comes from making a difference in the lives of others.

Enrique emphasizes that as leaders, we're facilitators, helping people see the next step. While we provide knowledge, examples, and personal stories, the decision to move forward lies with each individual. We discuss the importance of understanding that change is constant, and leaders must recognize their role in it. This includes knowing how change impacts their team members individually, addressing the impact appropriately, and ensuring they have the right resources to manage it.

Communication for Safety: Aviation Leadership with Captain Gina Longo

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Thu, 24 Oct 2024 05:15:00 +0000

In this episode, we dive into aviation with Gina Longo from North Carolina, exploring her unique transition from an Airline Captain to Aviation Leadership Trainer. We discuss how her early passion for horses and practical advice from her father guided her into aviation, the challenges and insights she gained from her time training pilots in the UK, and her unconventional three-year adventure across the UK in a caravan with her German shepherds. Gina also shares how these experiences shaped her approach to leadership and her current work in the field.

Gina shares compelling stories illustrating the critical role of communication in aviation safety. She recounts a challenging night flight where poor communication led to a stressful and unstable approach to a landing, emphasizing the need for timely updates and assertiveness. In contrast, Gina also highlights a successful landing at another airport, where clear and effective communication prevented a potential disaster, showcasing how adhering to procedures and explaining decisions can enhance safety and build trust. These examples underline how good and bad communication can significantly impact safety and leadership in high-stakes environments.

About Gina Longo:

And as the founder of a specialist boutique leadership training firm, what she believes is in helping aviation leaders communicate clearly and make common-sense decisions that put safety first, because poor communication and poor leadership should never again be the cause of an accident.

Her great love is German Shepherds, and as a proud U.S. Air Force brat, she tends to answer the question "Where are you from?" with an enigmatic "It depends."

Booking@podgo.io (Regina Huber) — Fri, 2 Aug 2024 07:00:00 +0000

In this episode with Dr.

Justine Chinoperekweyi from Harare, Zimbabwe, we explore fostering a new leadership and business consciousness. Justine emphasizes the importance of engaging with people as human beings, understanding their lived experiences, and appreciating the potential each person brings to an organization. He highlights the missing link in many leadership conversations, which often focus more on results and less on people. True leadership, according to Justine, is about creating connections, co-creating interventions, and elevating people's enduring capabilities.

Many leadership discussions prioritize systems, processes, and plans, neglecting the individuals who are the heart of the organization. A new leadership narrative is needed, one that amplifies and awakens people's capabilities, creating a safe and brave space for optimal performance. Justine shares an example of a client in Saudi Arabia who transformed his approach to leadership by truly opening up to his team and fostering meaningful interactions. This shift in mindset and leadership style proved transformative, illustrating the power of meaningful engagement and the creation of a genuinely open-door policy.
