What to Walk Away With

Chaos isn’t just an external circumstance, for many people, it’s an internal identity built in childhood.

Your nervous system will always move toward what’s familiar, not what’s healthy, until you consciously rewire it.

Self-sabotage is not a character flaw. It is a protection strategy that outlived its usefulness.

Leaders carry their wounds into their organizations. Healing isn’t soft, it is a competitive advantage.

Peace is a skill that can be developed. Tolerating good is the practice.

The gap between where you are and where you know you’re supposed to be is often not about strategy, it’s about subconscious belief.

This One’s Especially for You If…

  • You’ve ever felt more comfortable in struggle than in success
  • You recognize patterns of pulling away just when things start going well
  • You’re a leader who wonders why your culture feels tense even when nothing is ‘wrong’
  • You’ve settled for a relationship, a job, or a version of yourself that you know doesn’t match your full potential
  • You’re doing all the right things externally but still feel an unexplainable resistance to receiving good
  • You know the word ‘hypervigilant’ applies to you but haven’t known what to do with it

]]> How Growing Up in Chaos Can Make Peace Feel Suspicious - Jahmaal Marshall Jahmaal Marshall 00:27:13 What happens when the very thing you’ve been praying for finally shows up, and your first instinct is to run from it, ruin it, or convince yourself you don’t deserve it? In this deeply personal and powerfully honest solo episode, Jahmaal Marshall pulls back the curtain on one of the most overlooked cycles holding people back: the inability to distinguish between peace and chaos when chaos is all you’ve ever known. Growing up in unpredictable, unstable, or emotionally chaotic environments doesn’t just shape your childhood, it rewires your nervous system. It trains your brain to see dysfunction as familiar, and familiarity as safe. So when peace, consistency, or genuine opportunity arrives, your subconscious goes on high alert. Something must be wrong. And if nothing is wrong… you’ll create something. Jahmaal goes deep into how unprocessed childhood wounds quietly sabotage great relationships, promising careers, and life-changing opportunities in the present not through dramatic blow-ups, but through subtle, patterned behaviors: hyper-guardedness, manufactured drama, emotional escapism, and the haunting habit of settling for less than you’ve been built to receive. This episode is especially critical for leaders. When unhealed wounds sit in the driver’s seat of leadership, the impact doesn’t stay personal, it shapes team culture, drives decisions, and quietly communicates to the people around you what’s possible… and what’s not. If you’ve ever wondered why you keep finding yourself back in familiar chaos after finally getting something good, this episode is the mirror you didn’t know you needed.

Watch What Leaves." WHAT WE COVER IN THIS EPISODE

[00:00] Cold Open — Starting in the middle, because that's where most of you are

[03:30] Why toxicity doesn't find you by accident - it finds a frequency

[08:00] The curiosity problem: why we're endlessly curious about others and remarkably uncurious about ourselves

[13:15] Why "know your worth" has become a slogan - and what actually discovering your worth looks like

[18:00] The 4-Stage Clarity Process:

         Stage 1 - Discomfort: What comes up when you start asking real questions

         Stage 2 - The Shedding: Why things fall away and why that's not failure

         Stage 3 - The Emerging: How clarity shifts who enters your orbit

         Stage 4 - Maintenance: Why clarity is a practice, not a milestone

[26:00] The "waiting" pattern, and why it's not patience, it's outsourcing

[31:00] Closing reframe: chaos in your life is information about you, not something happening to you

[33:30] Call to Action + Premium Strategy Hour

KEY QUOTES FROM THIS EPISODE

"Toxicity doesn't target the strong. It targets the unclear."

"The version of you that knows their worth doesn't just say it — they live at a frequency where certain things simply cannot survive."

"Clarity is a filter you never have to consciously operate. It just works."

"You don't need permission to begin the process of becoming who you already are."

"That waiting isn't patience. That's outsourcing."

"The situation will not resolve first. You resolve first."

"These aren't failures. These are maps."

]]> "Know Your Worth. Watch What Leaves." Jahmaal Marshall 00:24:20 You've heard "know your worth" so many times it's lost its edge. But what if the real problem isn't that you don't know your worth, it's that you've never gotten genuinely curious enough about who you actually are to discover it? In this solo episode, Jahmaal Marshall dismantles the gap between self-worth as a slogan and self-worth as a lived frequency. He traces the direct line between untapped self-curiosity and the toxic dynamics that seem to keep finding you, and walks through the four-stage process of how clarity doesn't just repel what drains you, it actively begins to attract people who lead with value. This episode is for the person who has enough insight, and is ready for implementation. You've heard "know your worth" so many times it's lost its edge.

I sat down with Junaid Ahmed to talk about what it really takes to build a strong presence on and off camera without burning yourself out in the process. We got into the connection between emotional intelligence, storytelling, and studio setup, and why the best content starts with clarity long before you buy more gear.

 

Junaid is the founder of Home Studio Mastery and the host of Hacks & Hobbies, where he helps entrepreneurs, creators, and business owners create studio setups that match the quality of their message. In this conversation, he shares how his own journey in video production, podcasting, and problem-solving led him to help others show up with more confidence, better systems, and a more intentional brand presence.

 

We also talk through practical ways to improve your content right now, including framing, lighting, audio, and the importance of staying teachable as you grow. This one is full of insight for anyone who wants to communicate with more impact and show up more powerfully in their work.

In this solo episode, he breaks down how powerful connection can cloud judgment in relationships, friendships, business, and even hiring decisions.

He challenges listeners to stop using feelings as proof, start paying attention to patterns, and recognize that closure does not always come from the other person. 

This conversation is a thoughtful reminder that character reveals itself over time, and real peace begins when people stop outsourcing their healing and start choosing clarity for themselves.

In this episode, I sit down with Terry Rice, speaker, entrepreneur, and leadership trainer, for a real conversation about addiction, identity, fatherhood, discipline, and what it means to live in alignment. 

Terry brings the perspective of someone who has rebuilt more than once, opening up about getting fired from Facebook, losing his son TJ, and how those experiences shaped the way he leads, lives, and serves others today. We talk about overcoming alcoholism, building a life with intention, and using your scars, not to hide, but to help others grow. Honest, challenging, and full of perspective, this one is for anyone trying to lead with more clarity, purpose, and truth.

In this episode, I sit down with Terry Rice, speaker, entrepreneur, and leadership trainer, for a real conversation about addiction, identity, fatherhood, discipline, and what it means to live in alignment. 

Terry brings the perspective of someone who has rebuilt more than once, opening up about getting fired from Facebook, losing his son TJ, and how those experiences shaped the way he leads, lives, and serves others today. We talk about overcoming alcoholism, building a life with intention, and using your scars, not to hide, but to help others grow. Honest, challenging, and full of perspective, this one is for anyone trying to lead with more clarity, purpose, and truth.

]]> Building Legacy After Losing Everything w/ Terry Rice Jahmaal Marshall 00:45:14 false full 76 1aa7559e-af1f-4f37-a679-ccdafaf62d1f Waiting for Closure Is Costing You Everything WHAT YOU’LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE

01 - The Myth of External Closure

We’ve been conditioned to believe closure is something someone else delivers. Jahmaal unpacks why that belief is both biologically understandable and deeply damaging and introduces the Zeigarnik Effect, the psychological reason our minds grip unfinished situations so tightly.

“Closure is not a conversation. It’s a decision you make inside yourself about what that chapter meant and what you’re going to do next.”

02 - The Self-Sabotage Nobody Talks About

When unresolved pain goes unprocessed, we carry it forward, transferring it onto new managers, new partners, new collaborators who had nothing to do with the original wound. Jahmaal names this pattern “transferring pain forward” and explains why it masquerades as wisdom, discernment, and self-protection.

Key distinction from this segment:

Boundaries built from wisdom: identifying patterns, doing the work, watching for early signs

Walls built from unhealed wounds: treating everyone who resembles your past as a present-day threat

“You are punishing people for crimes they didn’t commit — and losing the very opportunities that could heal you.

03 - Your Internal Triggers Are Running the Show

A trigger isn’t just an emotional reaction — it’s your nervous system signaling that something unprocessed has been activated. The problem is that your nervous system cannot distinguish between what is actually dangerous and what merely resembles something that was dangerous before.

The result: you make survival decisions in contexts where survival isn’t actually at stake. You are fighting yesterday’s battle in today’s arena.

“When your unhealed triggers are driving, your future is being written by your past.”

Jahmaal also addresses why insight alone doesn’t equal healing and what it actually takes to update the internal narrative written at your most vulnerable moment.

04 - The Psychological Safety You’re Creating for Yourself

Here’s the reframe: your self-sabotage isn’t random. It isn’t weakness. It is strategy, a set of protective behaviors your psyche built to keep you safe. But there’s a critical difference between manufactured safety and real psychological safety.

Manufactured safety: controlled demolition of your own potential before someone else can cause the damage

Real psychological safety: the inner confidence that you can handle whatever comes, you will not be destroyed

]]> Waiting for Closure Is Costing You Everything Jahmaal Marshall 00:27:13 In this solo episode, Jahmaal Marshall gets direct about one of the most quietly destructive habits holding people back in both their personal and professional lives: waiting for closure that will never come. Most of us were taught that closure is something another person gives us a final conversation, an apology, an explanation. But what happens when that conversation never comes? Jahmaal breaks down the psychological reality of unresolved pain, how it quietly transfers from one situation to the next, and how the self-protective strategies we build in response become the very walls that block our growth, our relationships, and our next-level opportunities. This episode is for the person who is intelligent, self-aware, maybe even well-resourced and still cannot figure out why they keep getting in their own way.

Peace isn’t the absence of pressure. It’s the presence of structure.

If you’re tired of protecting your peace with attitude, this one gives you the roadmap to protect it with discipline.

On this episode of Listen Then Speak, I sit down with my friend (and repeat guest) Mita Mallick to talk about her new book, The Devil Emails at Midnight: What Good Leaders Can Learn from Bad Bosses. We get into the real workplace dynamics so many people quietly deal with: chaos, burnout, and “lethal loyalty”, and what it actually looks like to set boundaries without blowing up your career.

Mita shares how her upbringing as the daughter of Indian immigrant parents shaped the way she approached work, why “keep your head down and work hard” can backfire in modern corporate culture, and how bad bosses don’t just create stress, they create ripple effects that drain entire teams. We also unpack one of the book’s most memorable archetypes, “The White Rabbit” manager, and walk through practical ways to manage up, prioritize what’s urgent vs. important, and build a communication framework that protects your time and sanity.

If you’ve ever felt pressured to be available 24/7, struggled to advocate for yourself, or wondered how to lead well in a broken culture, this conversation is for you.

]]> The Path to Success Comes By Serving w/ Chaz Horn Jahmaal Marshall 00:40:41 false full 71 fa577ac8-9a8b-4bb3-859d-43df152a5282 The Mindset Behind Sales that YOU feel Good About w/ Justin Janowski On this week’s Listen Then Speak, Jahmaal sits down with business coach Justin Janowski for a conversation that goes past surface-level advice and into what actually makes sales, pricing, and strategy feel clean and effective.

 

Justin is the founder of Faith2Influence, and began his entrepreneurial journey just like many others, with uncertainty and fear, but also with a strong desire to build a faith-driven, impactful, and financially successful business.

 

He joins Jahmaal to talk about why “sales” doesn’t have to feel pushy (or fake), and how the best sales conversations are really leadership with a clear invitation at the end. Justin also breaks down his simple framework for ending every call with a yes, a no, or the next call booked, so you stop living in follow-up limbo and start closing the open loops that quietly drain your time and energy.

 

You’ll also hear the mindset side: identity, emotional state, and the stories we tell ourselves about money and rejection, and the quick pre-call rituals Justin uses to show up grounded, confident, and aligned.

 

If you’re building a business, thinking about a side gig, or you just want to get better at communicating value without feeling “salesy,” this episode is for you.

For Bill Walters, it’s personal.

Before becoming a financial guru, Bill spent six years caring for his mother during her battle with dementia. He also raised a daughter with emotional, medical, and psychological needs. These experiences taught him firsthand how unpredictable life can be and how important it is to plan ahead with wisdom and care.

Today, he works with people who are navigating life on their own terms. Whether managing a household or growing a business, to planning for retirement, or a loved one’s long-term care – Bill’s mission is to help you achieve lasting financial stability and solvency through solutions that truly fit your journey.

He joins Jahmaal to share more about his journey and this crucial intersection between his experiences, and what he does to help others now. They also touch on the importance of mindset and control. The magic of simple, responsible decision making and more!

Two areas typically kept completely separate, never to see one another.

In reality, who we are, what we’ve been through and what we “do” for a living are all inextricably linked. 

Failure informs what we do in the future. Adversity helps build us stronger. Mistakes are what make us.. well, human.

These aren’t things to be ignored, but experiences to be embraced for the true growth potential they provide.

Today’s guest and episode focuses on this very fact. 

Michael Stephenson is a community leader and marketing expert with over 20 years of experience driving significant change. His company, Brim and Brand is a full-service marketing and advertising agency. 

His focus on fostering meaningful progress and his leadership is second to none but most importantly, is informed by the challenges and obstacles he faced in his own life as a young man – which we examine in this episode.

Additionally Michael shares his blueprint for others, what inspires him to “give back” and enrich his community, his 3 big takeaways from someone starting over and more great nuggets of wisdom!

In this episode, Jahmaal explores the often-overlooked reality of high-functioning burnout, especially among senior leaders, high performers, and business owners who appear successful on the outside but are silently carrying exhaustion, emotional overload, and unspoken resentment.

You’ll hear insights drawn from client experiences (shared with full confidentiality) that reveal the financial, emotional, and relational cost of high-functioning codependency - and why managing symptoms is no longer enough.

This episode also sets the stage for what’s coming in 2026, including deeper conversations, expanded impact, and new ways for leaders to do the root work that leads to sustainable success.

Before you go, Jahmaal invites you to subscribe, leave a rating and review, and continue building this global movement of leaders who are learning to listen first - so they can lead with clarity, alignment, and purpose.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

Why burnout in high performers often goes unnoticed

The hidden link between high achievement and high-functioning codependency

How subconscious beliefs quietly drain time, energy, and revenue

The true cost of over-responsibility and people-pleasing in leadership

What changes when leaders do the root work instead of managing symptoms

In this powerful episode, Jahmaal Marshall speaks directly to high-performing leaders who feel exhausted behind the scenes and have normalized overwhelm as “the cost of success.”

This is not a conversation about productivity hacks or time management. It’s an invitation to uncover the subconscious beliefs driving overfunctioning, chronic stress, and emotional depletion, and to introduce a sustainable, measurable path forward.

If you’ve ever thought:

“I can’t slow down-too many people depend on me.”

“Rest feels uncomfortable or unproductive.”

“I’m successful, but I’m not at peace.”

This episode was created for you.

Armed with a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Pennsylvania and a background in Division 1 Lacrosse, Evan’s journey is a story of resilience, strategic thinking, and an unyielding pursuit of excellence. From tackling unpredictable markets to coaching a diverse clientele, including NASCAR pit crews, athletes, executives, and Wall Street pros, Evan lives by the belief that “pressure is a privilege.”

In his role as a Senior Performance Coach, Evan brings cutting-edge techniques rooted in modern psychoanalysis and neuroscience to guide clients in high-pressure industries toward peak performance. Beyond the financial world, Evan extends his coaching experience to mentoring, showcasing his dedication to developing leadership, communication, and relationship skills.

Here, Evan tells the story of the massive panic attack that forced him to rethink everything, from his health to his life’s direction. He shares how chronic stress, ambition, and fear of regret shaped his early career and how he ultimately pivoted to become a performance coach focused on neuroscience, psychoanalysis, and sustainable mental fitness. We unpack why high performers burn out, how trauma creates false psychological safety, and what it takes to truly listen, recalibrate, and begin again.

We also dive into key strategies for long-term clarity and resilience, like managing energy through night routines, embracing imperfect action, and learning to speak with intention instead of reaction. Whether you're a leader, entrepreneur, or just feeling stuck, this conversation is packed with hard-won insights for moving forward with purpose.

As the host of The Modern Man Podcast (a globally ranked top 2% podcast), Ted is on a mission to connect men in pursuit of their greatest potential. Through his coaching, online mastermind community (The Noble Knights), and signature Tools of Time course, Ted provides proven frameworks for productivity, mindset, and success.

We also explore the emotional weight men carry behind success, the danger of clean armor, and why real strength comes from showing up cracked but still standing. From building The Modern Man podcast to leading weekly men’s groups, Ted is helping men redefine success, one honest conversation at a time.

I've experienced the blessings of an online community and now want to share the space created with you in mind. Why did I create this space? Because I realized something crucial — tech leaders and HR professionals often work in parallel lanes, but there’s magic when they truly collaborate. Tech evolves at lightning speed, and HR shapes the culture and talent strategy that either propels or hinders that growth. The two need each other more than ever.

She was one of those kids who had no idea what she wanted to be when she grew up. She’s been a #1 ranked manager at Procter & Gamble, an award-winning filmmaker, trained and performed improv in NYC and was a director at a PR company. She even acted in and directed a late night comedy TV show.

But in 2021, Nausheen realized she never resonated with any of those roles and titles. At heart, she loved speaking ever since she was a 19-year old radio show host. Or before that, when she played the Princess in her school’s production of Rapunzel in grade 3. So in 2022, Nausheen quit her multiple 6-figure filmmaking startup to become a public speaking coach. After 17 years, she’s finally daring to start living her dream.

In this engaging conversation, Nausheen shares all the hills and valleys of her journey, starting from when she was a young girl. She dives into how blind loyalty to inherited mindsets and principals can take you off your true path and how she broke free. Nausheen also shares how she handles the vulnerability that comes with personal change, why taking action doesn’t always build confidence on its own, and her transformational work as a coach.

James believes the cornerstone of every successful organization is its people. His mission is to help people love their work and get connected with their teams because, in his words, "when people work better, we all win, together.”

James is a serial entrepreneur with a passion for cultivating great workplaces and empowering people. At 48, he's the co-founder and CEO of Happy Companies, a startup that uses technology to deliver AI-enhanced coaching. Happy revolutionized the way organizations encourage improved communication, collaboration and engagement with their employees at scale.

James is married to his amazing wife Melissa and is the father of three kids: Bradley, Jordan and Taylor. When he's not leading his team or spending time with his family, James is likely coaching youth football, driving a race car faster than 200 mph, learning to fly, or diving into one of his favorite books, which range from "The Hard Thing About Hard Things" to "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People"

As a serial entrepreneur, James hasn’t had a linear path. Here, he shares what inspired him on his journey and what ultimately sparked him to create Happy. He talks about how he shattered who his parents wanted him to be to overcome fear and live more authentically. James also shares insights on the power of honesty as a CEO, how he helps leaders foster healthy workplace cultures, and the challenge of beginning with the end in mind.

Later, she was appointed as one of the youngest female equity sales managers, supervising a team of 40 people across Europe and the Middle East. Her success in this high-flying male dominated world made her realize something essential was missing from her own career and the corporate world.

This process inspired her to build a system of development that would transcend the leadership status quo.

Marika is a non-executive director and a keynote speaker on conscious leadership, emotional and intuitive intelligence, diversity, equity and inclusion. She supports various charities globally and sits on the Board of an NGO in Kenya, where she regularly organizes retreats that combine the awakening of consciousness and positive impact on society and the environment.

Here, Marika shares what sparked her inspiration to start her business and begin to spread her message. She talks about how she made the choice to show up as her true self in her career and how she experienced her masculine and feminine energies. Marika also shares how she identifies the best path forward when things change, how to identify toxicity in the workplace, and why it’s important to fill your own cup first.

She has a 15-year history in the financial industry and was recognized as one of the industry’s most successful equity sales professionals, making it to 7-figure annual compensation at the age of 31. 

Later, she was appointed as one of the youngest female equity sales managers, supervising a team of 40 people across Europe and the Middle East. Her success in this high-flying male dominated world made her realize something essential was missing from her own career and the corporate world.

Marika’s path towards conscious leadership started 20+ years ago. She studied psychology, neuroscience, bioenergy and wellbeing and trained in integral coaching, yoga, mindfulness, and clinical hypnotherapy. This process inspired her to build a system of development that would transcend the leadership status quo.

Marika is a non-executive director and a keynote speaker on conscious leadership, emotional and intuitive intelligence, diversity, equity and inclusion. She supports various charities globally and sits on the Board of an NGO in Kenya, where she regularly organizes retreats that combine the awakening of consciousness and positive impact on society and the environment.

Here, Marika shares what sparked her inspiration to start her business and begin to spread her message. She talks about how she made the choice to show up as her true self in her career and how she experienced her masculine and feminine energies. Marika also shares how she identifies the best path forward when things change, how to identify toxicity in the workplace, and why it’s important to fill your own cup first.
 

What’s Inside:

  • What inspired Marika to start her business and spread her message?
  • How to identify the best path forward in times of change.
  • Why it’s important to put yourself first.

By 12, he was a featured Danish radio host and television reporter, seen on national news and television broadcasts. At 14, Peter created the biggest artist forum in Scandinavia, which he sold three years later to a major corporation. 

By the age of 18, Peter was fully immersed in his music career as an EDM DJ named Pete Fox. He went on to launch a music label that produced several top Scandinavian artists, produced his own music, and eventually earned over 20 platinum records, 40 gold records, and multiple nominations for the Danish DJ Awards.

Peter then founded Telzio, a next generation, unified communications company. At Telzio, Peter and his team create innovative solutions to streamline and manage telecommunications for B2B. Here, Peter shares the story behind his journey from DJ to owning a communications firm. We also discuss the reality of life as an entrepreneur, how Peter found his zone of genius, and overcoming burnout.

Her master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine enables Caitlin to combine Eastern wisdom with her natural practicality. After performing more than 25,000 acupuncture treatments, Caitlin added 1:1 coaching, corporate workshops, and keynotes for companies such as PTC and Lululemon – all with a focus on burnout. 

Cait has been featured on podcasts and online magazines such as "Forbes," “Elephant Journal,” “Thrive Global," and “Addicted 2 Success," as well as quoted in Oprah Magazine. Caitlin and her husband spent 12 years living in Europe but now make their home in New Jersey. When Caitlin is not speaking or coaching on burnout, you can find her and her husband hiking, walking with Flora (their white fluffy dog), or cross-country skiing.

In this conversation, we dig into the power of mindset and perspective. Sometimes, the hurdles we face in life can be moved out of the way, but because of society, our upbringing, and our environments, we mistakenly keep them there. Cait shares insights into how we get lost in our coping mechanisms and how we can shift into a healthier way of being. We also discuss the “zone of proximal development” and how to break the bad habit of people pleasing, how to maintain balance when achieving our goals, and how Cait overcame burnout in her own life.

  • Why we keep hurdles in our life even if we can move them

Jordan founded her company, Mind Body Wallet, in late 2016 after leaving a successful career as a financial advisor.

He’s the author of the books Conquer the Uncomfortable and Unleash Your Potential. Pjero’s also the host of The Boy Behind the Man podcast. Emotions can lead us to a number of places, especially when they’re left unchecked. Pjero and I get into why that happens and why people’s lack of belief in themselves bothers him the most. He explains how his childhood experiences shape how he works with clients. Fears from growing up or fears accumulated through life often create narratives around what we believe we can and can’t do. There’s always a “why” behind the “what” and we talk about how active listening helps us uncover the way people think. Pjero’s content is often direct, and he speaks to men and women about relationships with conviction, which he says is inspired by his own experiences. He shares a very personal story about how he lost everything in a relationship and how it powers him to help others not to make the same mistakes.

He’s also a keynote speaker and the host of Going All-In, A Podcast for Men. While he was trying to find his voice, Sanyika decided to stop speaking and start listening, and that’s when everything changed. The most powerful thing he began to hear was what was going on beneath the surface, especially the narratives and stories men tell themselves. Many people were trying to build successful businesses on the surface level, but under the surface, there was a great deal of what Sanyika refers to as the three “Uns”: feeling unlovable, unworthy, and misunderstood.

Sanyika and I talk about standing firmly in the role God calls them into and what men can do to stop sending that call to voicemail. Because of the culture we live in, many of us would rather be informed than transformed. We discuss how our childhood experiences impact us, and Sanyika shares his own stories about navigating core wounds. Our conversation also includes how women can get closer to the men in their lives through vulnerability, parenting your parents, being a chain breaker, and how we can grow through discomfort.
 

What’s Inside:

  • Why men need to stop sending God’s call to voicemail.
  • How to navigate core wounds and transmute the energy.
  • How to grow through discomfort.

He’s also the president and founder of Podcast Cola, an award-winning entrepreneur, writer, filmmaker, and public speaker. We kick off our discussion with why Shaahin loves Bob Marley and how music brings people from all walks of life together. We also talk about Shaahin’s journey as a serial entrepreneur, which began at a very young age.

We talk about Shaahin’s book Billion, his struggles with impostor syndrome, and how he built his Herbal Ecstasy empire.

JJ and I start by discussing a quote from author Marianne Williamson that she included in her book. The quote speaks to our deepest fears of being powerful beyond measure. Playing small puts ourselves and others at a disadvantage because when we shine, we give permission for others to do so as well. Being who you are is exactly who you need to be, and JJ touches on how this authenticity is essential for leadership.  

Sometimes trauma impacts a person’s ability to live out their purpose. JJ and I discuss her perspectives on grieving, victim mentality, and lessons learned through life experiences. JJ believes those who have been impacted by hardships and trauma can use the wisdom they have gained to help others. She also touches on the power of forgiveness and keeping your heart open. JJ and I also talk about trying on different belief systems, the transformational power of changing your perspective, and how coaches and managers can “be on purpose.”
 

What’s Inside:

  • JJ’s views on forgiveness and how we choose our life lessons.
  • How changing your perspective can transform your life.
  • Tips for coaches and professionals on how to “be on purpose”.

My conversation with Zach dives into servant leadership and how his life experiences lead him to make that a focus. As an American football player in Europe, Zach was looked up to by many, especially youth. He realized that sports were his platform to reach people, not his purpose. Zach believes that if you want to earn the respect of others and have them feel you as a person, you have to make it about them, not you. We also talk about emotional intelligence and why it’s a key component of leadership. Being genuine and vulnerable goes a long way in terms of inspiring others and being a good mentor.

When Zach set out to write his book, he originally intended for his organization name to stand for Swiss Army Leadership, however he changed his mind while going through the publishing process. Due to copywriting issues, he was looking for another name that would fit both his core message and his journey as a former athlete. He then came up with Sensible Worldwide Adaptable Leadership. Zach learned that effective leadership requires you to embrace globalization and intercultural competence. Being able to adjust like a Swiss Army knife to your environment and an ever-changing world is critical for modern day leaders.

What’s Inside:

  • The importance of servant leadership and what it means. 
  • Why street smarts and book smarts go hand in hand in effective leadership.
  • Why it’s important to get into the trenches with your clients as a coach.
  • How to deal with ageism in coaching and business.
  • The difference between real and fraudulent leadership.

Julie specializes in guiding people into a life they love through the development of high-performance habits in the areas of career, relationships, health, and finances. Julie also works closely with companies and corporations to develop high-performance cultures where employees are motivated and engaged. Julie and I discuss boundaries and why they’re so important in our personal and professional lives and Julie shares how her own journey shaped her path.

Julie grew up with a strict mother who often broke her spirit, both physically and emotionally. This created an energy of fear that made her doubt her worth and have poor boundaries with others. She had an awakening in her early thirties that made her realize she was living a life that wasn’t hers. Julie also realized that much of what she went through when she was younger was due to a lack of boundaries. Her faith is what ultimately pulled her through some tough life changes and helped her keep going down the path even when she couldn’t fully see it. Establishing strong boundaries is an ongoing journey in life, and Julie shares five ways to make sure your boundaries are bulletproof.

How Julie’s journey shaped who she is today.

Joy’s perspective truly helps people think beyond the surface level, which continues here in Part Two. In her book, “Beyond Brand”, Joy discusses changing narratives with the use of media. Here, she shares the moments that led to her getting to into media. Joy is dedicated to doing things differently while honoring her lineage. Questioning the origins of stories is a big theme within Joy’s book. After hitting a physical wall of burnout from overworking, Joy was forced to take a time out and question her own journey and purpose. She realized then that she wanted to live a creative life and tap into it as part of her self-care and healing.

When we begin with the end in mind, we can tap into what’s underneath so many of the stories and narratives we’re fed. If you’re a storyteller, it’s your job to uncover what’s beneath the surface. Self-compassion is the key when honoring your needs to rest and take care of yourself. Early in her career, Joy didn’t have the self-compassion she has today and didn’t honor her body and its needs. She shares her routines and how she makes sure it’s a number one priority.
 

What’s Inside:

  • How Joy decided to use media to make an impact.
  • Joy’s wake up call to honoring her purpose and creativity.
  • How Joy balances self-care and rest with hustling and working

CIME provides research and resources for storytelling, equity, and Hollywood. Her recent book, “Beyond Brand”, dives into how to use media to live and leave our cultural legacy. Joy has spoken heavily on Hollywood production codes, an era which lasted about 30 years where Hollywood chose to inflict morality standards. These codes essentially taught human beings how to be and included things like suppressed sexuality and not showing race mixing. It was bewildering for Joy to discover, and we discussed how it affected her. 

When Joy wrote her book, she wanted to talk about embodiment and disembodiment. At speaking engagements, people would always ask her how to build a brand while remaining authentic. Many people think their brand needs to mimic their authenticity, but it’s really the other way around. Focusing on your cultural legacy brings people back into their bodies, which is the only way you’re able to be human. Joy shares a transformational story from her childhood when she first discovered the dark history of racism in this country and the body she was born into. She felt a range of emotions, but also felt what she calls a divine spark of defiance that helped shape her career and worldview.

Joy has a lot more to share, so don’t forget to check out Part 2 of this episode.

What’s Inside:

  • Hollywood's production codes and how they shaped an era of global entertainment.
  • Why focusing on your legacy helps you embrace your authenticity.
  • How Joy surrenders to the body and honors the power of rest.

]]> From Corporate to Entrepreneur (An Honest Journey) Jahmaal Marshall 00:39:27 In this episode of Listen Then Speak, I had the opportunity to have an open and honest chat with 5 time best selling author Rob Jolles. Today He's an award winning author, public speaker, podcast host, and sought after corporate trainer. However, he started his journey in sales at Xerox. These times as well as his cultural upbringing were key in forming him into who he is today. With so much rhetoric flying left and right (pertaining to the transition of corporate to entrepreneur), we GET INTO IT and take a deeper dive into the hills and valleys of this journey. Listeners will be both encouraged and challenged by Rob's candor and professionalism.

]]> Why Listen Then Speak? Jahmaal Marshall 00:04:30 So what exactly are we doing here? Im so glad that question has been asked. How many have started a podcast as a project of passion, only to burn out? I belief (in short) that they didn't have a why attached to their journey in this virtual space. In this short sound bite, you will get a small taste of my why, and what prompted me to begin this journey. I will also be letting listeners know when to expect new episodes and the frequency in which they will air. If you want to dwell on the surface, this may not be your cup of tea. However; if you want to get into it, lets go and lets grow together! So what exactly are we doing here? Im so glad that question has been asked.
