219.What to Talk About with Greg & Deb

2023/05/30

Many find themselves facing the issue of what to talk about as the years go by. Topics can easily digress to sharing personal health issues including way too many details, updates on who has recently died or is incapacitated, or other depressing topics. Since according to Harvard Public Health, a growing body of evidence suggests those with stronger social ties live longer and are more satisfied with their lives, we thought it would be valuable to give a heads-up on some ideas. A large part of

218.Constructing Meaningful Work with Deborah Johnson

Power of After Show ·

2023/05/23

At mid-career or the halftime of life, many start thinking about constructing meaningful work that provides a sense of purpose, fulfillment, significance and satisfaction. Napoleon Hill (1883-1970), author of Think and Grow Rich said, “The soul of man is embodied in his work.” French philosopher Albert Camus (1913-1960) said that “Without work, all life goes rotten. But when work is soulless, life stifles and dies.” So when life got turned upside-down with shutdowns, many started evaluating their

If you asked yourself, “What if?” how would you answer? Where would your imagination take you? Jim Palmer asked that question and started looking at his life. He looked closely at the sand, flowing freely through an hourglass and knew it would eventually run out. That’s when he started asking “What if?” of his own life. His answer led to him selling his home and living on a thirty-foot boat. Exploring hypothetical scenarios through “What if?” questions can help us determine different possibilities

2023/05/12

I wanted to approach the subject of Mother’s Day history not only as a matter of interest, but as a reminder for our listeners to appreciate their mom or even a friend’s mom. I appreciate the women who have spent a great amount of energy and time raising families, many times while balancing a career and other responsibilities. As I think about Mother’s Day, I am remembering my own mother who made all of my sister’s and my clothes until she taught us to sew on our own. What I didn’t realize at the

215.The Value of Common Sense with Deborah Johnson

Power of After Show ·

2023/05/09

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines common sense as sound and prudent judgment based on a simple perception of a situation or facts. Part of the challenge of applying that definition of common sense is determining how a situation is perceived. In the past several years, the distortion of facts and distrust of what is claimed to be real and true has pushed many toward pessimism and disillusionment. Thomas Paine (1736-1809) was an English-born American Founding Father and wrote his most famous

214.What Does Discouragement Mean? with Greg & Deb

Power of After Show ·

2023/05/02

Many may not want to ask yourself the question, What does discouragement mean? as it could spur discouraging thoughts and emotions! It can bring on feelings of waning confidence or lost hope. Or disheartening notions of resignation or frustration, giving up. But discouragement is important to acknowledge, especially for the sake of mental health and well-being. Life doesn’t stop just because you’re discouraged. We can gain feedback, resilience and perspective from asking, then pondering, What does

2023/04/25

To never give up doesn’t mean one will never change her mind. Tenacity and fortuitousness includes the flexibility to evaluate and shift focus if needed. However, many people quit too soon. One of the phrases Winston Churchill (1874-1965) was known best for during World War II was to "Never give in, never give in, never, never, never, never - in nothing, great or small, large or petty - never give in (or never give up!) except to convictions of honor and good sense." I think he made his point quite

To be unbounded is to be free to dream big and it advances the message that you are a champion. With a little red wagon used to sell cookies and bread, carrying her babies door to door, Mary Crafts planted the seed of her dream as her own champion. From humble beginnings, Mary successfully built an empire, the largest catering company in Utah. Her guiding mantra is that one cannot build what they have not first dreamt and that dreaming is a prerequisite for achieving anything. Struggle is a part of

211.Secret of Great Joy - with Deborah Johnson

Power of After Show ·

2023/04/11

Why wouldn’t most everyone want to experience great joy in their life? Experiencing great joy is no huge secret but it’s very subjective and varies from person to person. It actually dips into the area of philosophical thinking as there are many aspects that we could include. There are many books touting the secret to happiness and fulfillment. But in my opinion, joy goes much deeper than happiness. To illustrate this in nature, joy is not just what we see in the bubbling over of a stream but comes

2023/04/04

A financial crisis triggers fear and uncertainty, not only in us, but in our country and banks. Factors such as economic downturns, excessive risk-taking and poor management within the banking and financial industry all play factors in a culminating crisis. We see governments stepping in to mitigate the impact and larger banks purchasing smaller banks at a discount. There have been other times we have experienced a financial crisis and we can not only learn from the past, but plan for the future

2023/03/28

Why ask “What is a leader?” There are plenty of books, articles and speakers expounding principles of leadership so it seems that answer should be readily available. However, leadership is an attribute that’s in dire need for many organizations, businesses, relationships and lives. An article from Inc.com listed five qualities of someone with bad leadership skills. These include narcissistic tendencies, lack of recognition for good work, treating people like numbers, too much control and lack of

When approaching innovation and branding, understand who you serve first. Don’t focus on the solution first. According to Harvard Business Review, statistics tell us that over 70% of innovation fails. With a background as a global innovator, Sue Bevan Baggot learned this quickly as she looked to begin her career at Proctor and Gamble. She was drawn to the company because of their focus on innovative ways of improving people's businesses. Sue worked on helping clients uncover the insights they needed

2023/03/14

Top trends in news, business and finances are popular topics, but as art reflects life and vice versa, trends in society are often reflected in music. This has been my field for a number of years and I thought it would be interesting to draw some principles from musical styles through the decades as well as trends in society. It’s interesting to turn back the pages of our history to reveal some of the main songs of each decade that reflect thoughts, ideology and even market trends. The political

Power of After Show ·

2023/02/28

When in the middle a chaotic situation, I don’t automatically see the beauty in chaos. The word chaos comes from the Greek word khaos, meaning chasm or void. I picture a big black hole. Chaos can take the form of uncertainty, messiness or even a lack of understanding. But if I look deeper into many acts of nature and examples of craftsmanship, I can see that beauty in chaos is possible and probable as we change the variables we can control. We can also learn from the laws of nature that are already

What is love? Does anyone really know? Valentine’s Day is a day mostly focused on expressing love. Love is many things. It is an emotion that motivates us, love is an expression of affection, and most importantly, love is a mindset that we should choose often. Our spouses, our kids, and our friends usually become people we could choose not to love. But we love then anyway. Do we know why? Many times, loving others comes down to a mindset we choose.

Power of After Show ·

2023/02/07

Celebrate with us: this is our 200th episode! We'd love your review! Entrepreneurship freedom is the essential expression of individual liberty. The word comes from the mid-18 century French term to undertake a project. The etymology of the term is from “entre,” to swim out and “prendes,” to grasp or capture. Visualizing this is to break away and chart your own course. Capturing this entrepreneurship freedom is a privilege, yet there has been a cost for that freedom in the past and there’s still a
