    EP338 - Scott K. Grace - How To Evolve During The Trump Experience
    Oct 16 2025
    “The more rigid somebody’s opinions are, the more suppressed their fears are.” The world often confuses outrage with power—but true strength lies in calm awareness. The episode dives into how personal evolution begins when we stop feeding on fear and start listening with empathy. Rather than fighting political battles, the lesson is to move beyond certainty and step into curiosity. It’s not about winning arguments—it’s about reclaiming peace of mind in a divided culture. Scott Grace, author of How to Evolve During the Trump Experience: Whether Humanity Joins You or Not, shows how humour, music, and honesty can bridge even the deepest divides. A master of nonviolent communication, he teaches that behind every strong opinion lies a deeper emotion—usually fear. Scott’s stories and songs reveal how connection can replace correction, how love quiets the noise, and how compassion turns conflict into understanding. Scott is a spiritual humourist, singer-songwriter, and coach known for weaving mindfulness and improvisational wisdom into his performances. His work blends laughter and healing, using art to transform pain into lightness. Through his songs and workshops, he helps people rediscover peace amid political chaos and personal stress—one mindful conversation at a time.

    EP337: Rich Alderton – Adapting to Change
    Oct 9 2025
    “Resilience is defined as having the ability to bounce back. Adaptability is all about having the ability to bounce higher.” True growth begins the moment we stop resisting what life brings us. Change isn’t the enemy—it’s the invitation. Every obstacle, every disruption, every unwelcome surprise can become a spark for transformation when we learn to see it through the lens of adaptability. Fear and anxiety lose their power when we shift from “Why is this happening to me?” to “What is this teaching me?” The more adaptable we become, the freer we are to live without fear of the unknown. Rich Alderton shares how mastering adaptability intelligence transforms struggle into strength. He explains that while resilience helps us bounce back, adaptability helps us bounce higher. Rich illustrates how leaders and everyday people alike can learn to embrace uncertainty, manage fear, and use change—positive or negative—as a tool for personal growth. His insight reframes even life’s hardest blows as opportunities to rise. Rich is an author, speaker, and coach specializing in helping organizations and individuals thrive amid constant transformation. After a career that spanned factory floors to corporate boardrooms, he founded High Performance Change—a consultancy dedicated to teaching adaptability as the ultimate life and leadership skill.

    EP336: Scott Edwards - Be a Standup Comic, or Just Look Like One
    Oct 2 2025
    “Not only do we see that we can succeed, but even if we fail, we just get up, dust ourselves off and try again.” A clear path emerges: work hard, listen harder, and choose businesses you’re genuinely excited about. Success isn’t just profit; it’s finding vehicles that keep you curious and energized, then learning fast when the market teaches tough lessons. The episode distills a practical mindset: sell well, listen well, and keep your timing sharp—because opportunity rewards those who ship before the boom. From clubs to submarines, Scott Edwards shows how passion and experimentation can compound into track records (and stories) that money alone can’t buy. He leans on sales, timing, and relentless curiosity, while admitting mistakes, pivots, and the importance of dusting off and trying again. The result is an approach to entrepreneurship that’s joyful, gutsy, and teachable. Scott is a lifelong entrepreneur and producer who launched one of America’s earliest full-time comedy clubs in 1980, worked with Gary Shandling, George Wallace, Bob Saget, Dana Carvey, and Jerry Seinfeld, produced TV series and large concerts, owned multiple companies (including a tourist submarine), and now hosts the Tag Team Talent Podcast.
