Managing Leadership Anxiety: Yours and Theirs

Ep 176: Jimmy Carnes

Jimmy Carnes is a Capable Life trainer who has worked with Steve for over ten years. He joins Steve on the pod to chat:

 

- What do you do when you don't know what to do.

- Leadership as 'taking responsibility' rather than 'knowing what to do.'

- How many milliseconds do you need to know if a worship band member is not ok?

And much more.

Ep: 175: Differentiation At The Movies

Sometimes it is easier to SEE Differentiation before you TRY it! We frequently recommend first watching it, then noticing a time you're anxious and debriefing after and then trying it for yourself. 

 

To that end, in this episode Steve spends time clarifying what differentiation is and then shows how it shows up in: Hidden Figures, The Crown, The Princess Bride, Toy Story and Spotlight. 

 

Coming in Oct 2-4, Unlocking Faith conference. Early bird pricing ends June 30th. Join us in person, live stream or watch later on demand Tickets and more info here.

Ep 171: Jessie Cruickshank

Jessie Cruickshank’s new book is Ordinary DIscipleshipship - an incredible and fresh approach to the way we change and help others change.  I loved this interview where Jessie digs into attachment theory, the way God wired our brains for change, the power of truth and assumptions and her favorite way to die while being outdoors.

She holds a Master’s from Harvard in Mind, Brain, and Education. Jessie is passionate about creating organic systems that facilitate holistic human and organizational development.
