Hello, Listeners.

I am so excited to share this podcast episode with you. If you have been a long time listener, you already know that my grandmother, Eileen Downey, really inspired me to start this podcast three years ago. Fast forward to today, I am so proud that this podcasting journey brought me to a great conversation with my mom. My mom and I have had great conversations before but this is one that we had actually never fully had and decided it might be fun to share it with my listening audience. I hope you will see the connections to belonging, community, and all of the other themes and lessons that come up in our interviews and conversations with folks who have been on the pod.

Take a listen and I promise you won't be disappointed!!

With gratitude,

Carey

Hello listeners!

I hope you are well and excited for this week's episode. I am super excited to take you on a mini-journey of my own recent coaching session. In the session and in this episode, I explore swirling, dancing with discomfort, and how our patterns of thoughts, emotions and beliefs often fuel the stories that we are telling ourselves. Take a listen to learn how I navigated away from those stories to a place of possibilities.

Enjoy!

Hello Everyone! I hope you enjoy this episode where I share a bit about my own self-talk and how I have learned (and keep learning) how to do hard things!!

I can't wait to hear what you learned.

Carey

Dear listeners,

We are so excited to offer this episode and our wonderful conversation with Ms. Christine D'Ercole. Christine is a world-class bicycler, renowned Peloton instructor, and founder and leader of Wordshops. In our time together, we cover a lot of topics including why a seemingly simple question of "Where Am I?" is so critical to our personal work. Christine reminds us that we are our own worst critic and we must name and notice where we are in order to get where we want to go.

This was such a wonderful conversation and we know you are going to enjoy it.

Carey and Danielle

Join us for a great conversation with Jenny Gaither, founder of Movemeant Foundation an internationally recognized non-profit helping girls and women build self-worth. Jenny also shared her work as a coach and in Brave Babe, a digital coaching curriculum and community to build confidence.

Enjoy the show!

Carey and Danielle

Enjoy this episode where Danielle and I sit down with Aiko Bethea and talk about the meaning of paradox, the role of a learning identity, and the cultivation and role of brave spaces.

Thanks,

Carey and Danielle

Please join Danielle and me for a wonderful and enlightening conversation with Dr. Mayme Hostetter. As President of Relay University, she brings a wealth of knowledge, a learning identity, and powerful ideas about how to strengthen our strategies and approaches to education. Relay and Dr. Hostetter believe in the power of mastery, growth mindset, and deliberate practice. Dr. Hostetter reminds us that the steep learning curves associated with deliberate practice of particular teaching skills for our residents and least experienced graduate students, I’m sold on the power of rehearsing teaching in the presence of experts. During this hour, we talk about the paradox of novice-expert and how it shows up in her leadership, with her team, their students, and in the culture of Relay University. We also dig into how she and her team cultivate spaces so that individuals can successfully and willingly practice knowing that failure IS an option.

Please join us for this great chat.

Carey

Join me and Danielle for a wonderful and enlightening conversation with Dr. Laura Shaw. We talk about learning, our brains, what is happening in our bodies and minds when faced with uncomfortable moments, and what we should do in those moments. I think the responses will surprise you.

Enjoy!
