Wild Hearts at Work

Hello, Friends! (Every time I say that, I imagine Robin Williams' voice as Mrs. Doubtfire.) I'm so thrilled to be kicking off Season 2 with this episode. For nearly 12 minutes, I look back at learnings from Season 1, share some gratitude, and give you a sneak peek at what Season 2 is shaping up to be! 

Word/Phrase of the Week: Agency

In this episode, I speak with Microsoft CTO Advisor Williams Adams on the topic of Agency. A long time Microsoft employee, William has made long-standing impact within the large company by engaging his own sense of agency. He talks with me about how he challenged the status quo, created new programs (specifically LEAP, Microsoft's apprenticeship program), and made global impact through a series of decisions and just saying, "why not?".

Word/Phrase of this episode: Authenticity

In this episode, I speak with Dr. Erika Michalski about her favorite topic: authenticity. What does it mean? How does it show up at work? What is rebellious about it? This glitter loving doctor shares some challenges of being truly authentic, and how authenticity shows up in our leadership. We also talk about balancing our own needs with the needs of others in order to truly be our authentic selves - even at work.

I first learned of Katelyn Magnuson in the same way as many others: when her 1 minute video on the flexibility of her business went viral on TikTok. In this video, she was explaining how she and her employees work 32 hour work weeks and no more. For obvious reasons, I was dying to talk with her about this and invite you to listen! I was thrilled to wrap this Season 1 of Wild Hearts at Work with a leader of her caliber, emotional intelligence, and humor. Listen in to hear how her company operates, the story behind the viral video, and how her organization will continue to thrive in the future!

In this episode, I speak with Melanie Parish of The Experimental Leader book, The Experimental Leader Academy, and the Experimental Leader podcast! We had a lovely chat about the nature of experiments, why humans are wary of experiments, and what it looks like to experiment or support experimentation as a leader! Moreover, I really enjoyed just talking about leadership with someone of Melanie's perspective.

Have you ever had an idea that just wouldn't leave you alone - and you don't even know where it came from? Have you ever been in a meeting and something you heard just didn't feel right - but you were afraid to speak up because you had no "data" to prove you were right? Your intuition might be screaming at you!

Shoshanna French hears stories like this every day in her work.  In this episode, she and I chat about the different types of intuition, how they can show up at work, why we are afraid to listen, and how we can approach colleagues or our boss with information that came from *us*!
