When a Tree Falls

from Talk, Unleashed · host Cathy Brooks

Ah the joys of watching people hurling mud at each other online. Commentary threads saturated with finger pointing, name calling and utterly awful commentary. I don’t know that I’ll ever understand it. People’s need to spout off with insults, name calling or otherwise engage in a fight in the comments of a social media post. It’s like spitting into the wind. For starters, if you’re seeing a person or organization’s post in your feed, that’s your responsibility. If you don’t like what someone says, unfollow or block them. It’s that simple. It’s like me turning on the TV and then screaming at a program that I hate, when I have a remote control that allows me to watch anything else I like. If you don’t like it, don’t follow it. What’s that have to do with a tree falling in the woods? You’ll just have to listen to this short thought nugget of an episode to find out. In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity. Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It’s about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it’s unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed. This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages. #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash
