      <title>S3 / E11 - Breaking the cycle</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>In Season 1 Ted said he loves meeting people's moms, because "it is like reading an instruction manual as to why they're nuts". Now, in the second to last episode of the series we finally get to meet Ted's mom, and yep... it explains a lot! But Ted is doing his best to break generational cycles of trauma and harm. We draw parallels to how the younger generations are actively breaking the cycles of trauma and harm in the work place.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>Zava shows up and assumes a leadership position on the team. Some folks are happy and eager to follow. But Jamie doesn't buy the whole hero / savior narrative, and worries the team is forgetting their own strengths. We discuss what it looks like to add a "super star" to an already healthy and trusting team. We go on a tiny tangent about childhood crushes (Jared Leto). And we compare Rebecca's experience at the psychic to the experience we had with a roadside psychic in North Carolina.  </p><p>Notes: Virginia embarrasses herself by referring to the classic 1995 film "Now and Then" as "Then and Now". If you haven't seen "Now and Then" please do so. She usually records at 7am, so probably didn't have enough coffee. The Japanese art of mending broken things with gold is called Kintsugi.</p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>This episode has a lot of interesting introductions and re-introductions. In this episode we discuss what it looks like to dim your own light, or dim the light of others. And alternatively, what it looks like when you are able to *shine a light* on others (for better or worse). Keeley identifies potential in an old friend and makes her first hire, the team is adapting to the addition of Zava the Superstar, and Trent takes accountability for his hurtful criticism of Roy many years ago. We talk about it all and ramble into many other areas. </p>

      <itunes:summary>We love when our listeners reach out and recommend shows for us to talk about. And for the most part, we enjoy the shows themselves. But that doesn&apos;t mean they lend themselves to great conversations about leadership development and/or organizational design. So this three part series is dedicated to the shows you want us to talk about, but we can&apos;t really talk about.

      <title>Virginia surprises Kara, they see a psychic and talk Ted Lasso</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<p>We're not sure everyone realizes that we met over Instagram during the pandemic, and had never met in real life. That is... not until Virginia flew out to North Carolina to surprise Kara for the Ted Lasso Season 3 premier party she was hosting. Of course, Virginia traveled with her microphone. And also of course, Kara booked them an appointment with a local psychic to hear what the future has in store for the podcast. </p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>When Rebecca's father passes away, we get a glimpse into how others deal with the topic of death. Everyone seems to be thinking about loved ones they've lost, how they want to spend their short time on earth, and what it means to say good bye. In this podcast episode we discuss how the sad, scary, and disappointing experiences of our childhood inform who we become as adults -- especially with those challenging moments feel as if they were unacknowledged or unresolved. </p>

      <description><![CDATA[<p>"Beard After Hours" has Ted Lasso fans divided because it's a big shift in both format and tone. We love it, because we love Coach Beard. Surprisingly, we were able to find a couple of Org and Leadership Development topics to talk about, but for the most part we got weird. You could say this was a shift for us, too!

      <description><![CDATA[<p>When we compare ourselves to teammates, we tend to lose sight of our purpose and the things we actually enjoy in our work. Constantly comparing ourselves to others can strip us of passion, and we see this play out with Nate and Isaac in this episode.

Actions will always speak louder than words, and instead of giving Isaac a pep talk or lecture, Roy created an experience for him so he could feel the change for himself. </p><p>And forgive us for only coming up with Christmas related Romcoms, we had just finished debriefing the Ted Lasso Christmas episode and we were in that frame of mind.

      <description><![CDATA[<p>We meet Led Tasso, and see an apologetic Jamie Tartt. Do our eyes and ears deceive us? Can you really expect teammates to take you seriously if your actions lack sincerity? Also, why does our ego want to double down on defending our "good intentions" when we should be taking accountability for our "negative impact"? Speaking of negative impact, why does it feel so good to rally around a common enemy? Clearly, we have many questions to unpack in this episode.</p>
