    Transformative Leadership - From Failure to Trust
    Jun 12 2024
    Andy Rodford is the Principal of Venture Gained Consulting and works with school, camp, and business leaders to build capacity. He’s been involved in education for 30 years, holding senior roles at various independent schools, and is passionate about experiential learning. He has degrees in Science, Education, and leadership and loves wood carving, outdoor adventures, and helping others unearth potential. Show Highlights Every interaction is an opportunity for managing trust and building relationships. Overcoming the 'yeah, but' stage challenge of receiving hard feedback. Make a goal board for effectively receiving and implementing feedback. 211 degrees will change the state of your school. Throw a ‘Failure Fest” to celebrate productive failure. Consulting and counseling in leadership to avoid isolation. Live out what's most important to your values with a ‘dump journal.’ “ There's nobody that's going to help you move ahead in your leadership and as a school leader than the people that you're working with. And if you try to pretend that you're something that you're not, when everybody is giving you feedback that you're not doing what they hoped that you would be doing, you're going to be ground into the halt over time because people will just start to disconnect. And that is part of the management of trust.” -Andy Rodford Get the episode transcript here! Andy’s Resources & Contact Info: Linkedin Venture Gained Consulting Inc. Read my latest book!

  • Navigating Life with DBT and Mindfulness

    Navigating Life with DBT and Mindfulness
    Jun 10 2024
    Alexandra Mejia, who goes by Sasha, is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in private practice specializing in working with complex trauma, dissociation, and personality disorders. She aims to de-stigmatize trauma and personality disorders through her social media platforms and Clinical Residency Program and to spread the word on using DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) to settings outside of therapy. Show Highlights ​​Coexistence of self-acceptance and change through Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques. Walk ‘the middle path’ to promote awareness through mindfulness practices. Resolve conflicts by observing internal opposing forces. Create an inclusive educational environment emphasizing life skills education over traditional teaching methods. Emphasizes applying mindfulness to daily activities and thoughts. Distinguishing between reality and thoughts to enhance accountability. 3 Guiding Principles that align coursework with student passions as key principles for schools. Applying mindfulness skills to navigate various challenges effectively. “In dialectics, we like to call it walking the middle path. And it's taking a look at the positives and the negatives at each side of the dialectic. Let's say one side of the dialectic, there is self acceptance. And who out there doesn't want to find an experience? Self acceptance. It's a wonderful thing. We think we are more confident. We are less likely to be down on ourselves and to talk down to ourselves. If we're self accepting, we're not going to struggle as much or be as anxious or be as depressed if we're accepting of ourselves.” -Sasha Mejia Get the episode transcript here!
