There’s no direct linefrom where we are to where we’re going. The journey twists, turns, and throwsobstacles in our way. But at each intersection, we have choices. And when we walk with mindfulness, we become more attuned to our surroundings—and theunexpected opportunities that rise with each step.You don’t have to navigate this path alone. There are others just like you, staringdown blank walls and wondering which direction to take next. This podcast is aspace for shared experiences—because sometimes, a story you hear may echo yourown. And that moment of connection might be exactly what you need.You don’t have to navigate this path alone.

We are angrier and more divided, depressed, addicted, and lonely than any time in our history. And we're taking it out on each other, sometimes passively but increasingly with violence.Why It Matters: Failed relationships cost American businesses $8 trillion per year due to lost productivityDisaffected and disengaged workers have 37% higher absenteeism and are 63% more likely to quit abruptlyAmerican children are 3x more likely to grow up in a single-parent household than the worldwide average68% of our citizens believe that most people can't be trusted, and 60% say that loneliness is a constant companion Getting In The Way: If we want to arrest the tide of dysfunction and create thriving relationships, I say we should listen to CEOs. What? Seriously. We should listen to the CEOs whose wisdom transcends the boardroom and shareholders' meetings and can instruct us in our personal lives. Listen to the people they wrote books about already... Edison, Ford, Jobs, Buffett, Sandberg, Gates, Graham, and other business leaders. In my book, The Business of Relationships, I have 52 examples of this wisdom and how to apply it to create perspective, foster trust, offer respect, reward risk, show humility, demonstrate resilience, and develop other qualities essential to robust, engaged relationships. Several of my favorite quotes are:Change before you have to - Jack WelchEach one of us is more than the worst thing we have ever done - Sheryl SandbergIf you never budge, don't expect a push - Malcolm ForbesSuccess is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose - Bill Gates If you think you're too small to have an impact, try sleeping with a mosquito - Anita RoddickThese, and many other, business leaders' quotes can form the foundation on which to build better relationships with a spouse, sibling, colleague, child, golf partner, or neighbor... just about anyone you can think of, frankly. Some quotes are deep and some are humorous, but all transcend the boardroom. I have a lot of fun with the host and my conversational style gets your listeners engaged.https://www.facebook.com/tom.hagerty.33https://www.linkedin.com/in/tomhagerty0126/If you are looking for a Personal Coach contact Karen at #YESICAN coaching with [email protected] 526 1530
