This is Not About Hockey

This is not about hockey. It’s not even about sports. It’s about what it means to find heart in something entirely unexpected. It’s about what it means to give people hope, healing. That it involves the story of a six-year-old NHL team is kind of besides the point. If you’ve been listening to this podcast for a hot second you know my passion for the Vegas Golden Knights. You also know that hockey, for me, is a metaphor. The lessons in the last weeks have come fast and furious as the 2023 hockey season made it’s way into Stanley Cup Playoffs and then the final run for the cup. There was the massive lessons learned in round 3 when the captain of a team failed his teammates. A pair of lessons that came courtesy of the Florida Panthers coach Paul Maurice in the Finals - about his responsibility (or lack of it) and the price his team paid. Finally it’s about me being legit Internet famous - like to the tune of 40 million views. You’ll have to tune in to learn more on that. What does leadership actually mean in today’s world? Good question. That’s what Cathy Brooks thought. And it’s why she created Talk, Unleashed – a new podcast of radically honest conversation about ... well ... everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, this weekly podcast invites curiosity. Curiosity about not what people do, but why they do it. It's about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy helps clients unearth and untether their own internal leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages. Recently Cathy joined Paris-based start-up OpenBubble as Co-Founder and CEO of North America. OpenBubble’s mission is to break through issues of isolation and separation in society by creating a powerful way for people to connect and talk – with no agenda. #stanleycupfinals #stanleycupchampions #vegasgoldenknights #floridapanthers #paulmaurice #leadership #community #internetmeme #icehockeydancing #goldenknightsfan #OpenBubble #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash
