Travis is the co-founder at Human First Works. This organization helps purpose-driven founders and their teams overcome challenges, create fulfilling workplaces, and make the world a better place as they scale their businesses. With a people-centered approach, he supports leaders by helping them develop their interpersonal and decision-making skills, discover new perspectives and practices, and build more engaged, resourceful, and successful teams.

He's also a facilitator of the Interpersonal Dynamics class (affectionately called Touchey Feely) at the Stanford Graduate School of Business, focusing on the relationship-building side of organizational coaching and specializing in co-founder conflict.

On top of all that, Travis is the co-author of "Lead Together: The Bold, Brave, Intentional Path to Scaling Your Business." This book explores what it means to be a leader, the emergence of more dynamic organizational paradigms, and the benefits of choosing peer-based relationships and meaningful work over profit and rapid growth.

I had an excellent time chatting with Travis, who gave me the gift of one of my new favorite analogies for team-building: If you build a pyramid, you end up with mummies. :)

Dr. Blum helps his clients, from world-famous athletes to executives and small business owners, find peace and clarity while still creating powerful results in the world. His work is very deep, designed to cut through the bullshit to reveal your most essential self. He offers personal and group coaching and bespoke private retreats.

We touch on a number of VERY deep topics in our delightful conversation today, including the nature of ego and the True Self. Big stuff! We also explore Dr. Blum's origins as a coach in his energy work (which is much less "woo-woo" than you might think) and how he approaches both one-to-one and group coaching today.

At the end of our chat, Fred also makes a rather compelling offer to the audience - and if you've listened to the entire episode, you may want to jump right on it. :)

A former professional windsurfer & CEO of a listed Fortune 500 subsidiary, Michael has always been a passionate listener, supporting people in motivational, change, performance, and leadership aspects. Having consistently delivered outstanding results in both worlds, he decided to support leaders in shaping their business & personal growth journeys.

In our enlightening conversation, Michael talks about the importance of looking forward and not backward when it comes to personal and professional development. "What got you here might not get you there," is a Marshall Goldsmith quote that naturally came up.

We also discuss how crucial it is to have someone from outside of your bubble to coach and guide you on how to move forward in your business. As it is sometimes said, "You don't know what you don't know," and the external perspective of a coach who has the expertise and understanding to help make clear what the future will look like - whether in a few years or tomorrow - is simply invaluable.

Honorée Corder is an executive and strategic book coach, TEDx speaker, and the author of dozens of books including You Must Write a Book, and she’s co-creator of The Miracle Morning book series with Hal Elrod. Honorée passionately coaches business professionals, writers, and aspiring non-fiction authors who want to publish their books to bestseller status, create a platform, and develop multiple streams of income.

As expected, Honorée was her usual delightful and inspiring self! We cover her latest book, which is all about Writer's Block and how it's largely a myth (at least, as we usually understand it). With that conversation as a launchpad, we touch on her process in producing so many books, and how that commitment to her frameworks actually gives her the freedom to do her best work in the best way.

Also, she reveals her REAL reason for writing this latest book - cake!

In between process and cake, we find ourselves talking about many of the core aspects of great coaching - like the importance of asking good questions and providing a new vocabulary for finding and exploring the answers.

This episode is just too action-packed to properly describe here - you'll have to give it a listen to get the goods!
