    From High-Functioning Anxiety To Intuitive Leadership - Sara Byers : 179

    What if the life you’re chasing can’t be caught because it’s already inside you? In this episode, we sit down with Sara Byers, CEO, intuitive strategist, poet, and leader of her family’s business, Leonardo’s Pizza, for a heartfelt conversation about success, anxiety, and coming home to yourself. Sara also chairs multiple corporate and nonprofit boards and is the recipient of an Honorary Doctorate from Champlain College. She shares how dropping out of college cracked her perfect façade, how a 70% pay cut led her to unexpected purpose, and how an unexpected song the night her stepfather passed reshaped her understanding of connection. We explore high-functioning anxiety, public achievement and private collapse, becoming Reiki certified, receiving over 3,500 poems, and bringing grounded intuition into boardrooms and governance spaces. This isn’t about escaping reality; it’s about leading with presence. About learning to distinguish fear from inner guidance. About redefining success by how fully you show up. If you’ve ever felt like an imposter or reached a milestone only to feel empty, this conversation offers practical wisdom, honest stories, and a new way forward.

    Beneath the African Sun - A Journey of Serendipity, Friendship, and Grit - Barry Maughan : 178

    What happens when a comfortable life starts to feel small? We sit down with Barry Maughan to trace an 8,000‑mile drive from Alexandria to Africa’s southern tip in a 1969 VW combi bus, and the deeper journey from chasing success to finding meaning. A sudden coup in Libya shut a border and opened a path that led through dust tracks, steel‑belted tyres, and the unvarnished generosity of strangers who refused payment and offered help with a smile. We explore the difference between governments and people, and why most danger comes from regimes, not villagers. Barry shares the Cairo friendship that quietly reshaped everything. Serendipity kept showing up, including a stop at a radio station in Addis Ababa between 1969 and 1975, which led to a career in broadcasting, covering history in real-time and later hosting programs for the Voice of America’s English to Africa service. Along the way, we talk practical grit and tender moments: navigating without GPS, patching tubes under acacia thorns, and an unforgettable exchange between two mothers, linked by the same protective love. With a one‑year‑old in the back, the road demanded preparation and humility, and returned lessons about global citizenship, family, and care that outlast any itinerary. Beneath the African Sun, Barry’s new book, gathers the photos, the near‑misses, and the quiet truths about travel, courage, and the people who make a journey possible.

  3. Building Self-Belief - Healing, Leadership, And A Life You Choose - Amy Lenius : 177

    Building Self-Belief - Healing, Leadership, And A Life You Choose - Amy Lenius : 177

    What if the turning point in your health wasn’t a new treatment… but you deciding to lead your own care?  What followed was a decade-long pivot from chronic endometriosis and medical dismissal to patient-led healing, a purpose-driven career, and a growth framework blending physiology with psychology. Amy Lenius, Director of Group Coaching at Next Level University and certified personal development coach, shares the compounding choices that changed everything: building a multi-modal care team, removing endocrine disruptors, and swapping miracle fixes for small wins that last. She reveals how functional testing uncovers what “normal ranges” miss and why self-advocacy can be life-saving when systems don’t listen. The conversation turns from health to human behaviour. Amy breaks down the difference between self-belief (can I?) and self-worth (do I deserve it?), showing why strategy fails when either is low. She introduces four archetypes, Hero, Victim, Villain, and Guide, to reframe how we lead, coach, and love without burning out. The shift from Hero to Guide changes everything: opens the door, holds the standard, stops dragging people who don’t want to walk. We also talk about motivation profiles, growth-oriented vs relationship-oriented, and how to design habits that align with who you are, not who you’re told to be. There’s also a bold life redesign. Amy and her family moved across Canada for space, nature, and a values-aligned rhythm. Planning replaced panic, community replaced scarcity, and self-awareness became the compass. If you’ve ever felt stuck by a diagnosis, a job, a town, or your own timeline, this story offers a map: learn your body, learn your mind, audit your environment, and stack tiny, honest wins.  Share this with someone who needs a nudge to choose the next right step. Then tell us: which archetype do you default to, and what would Guide mode change for you? https://www.nextleveluniverse.com/group-coaching/ Send BEHAS a text.

    Encontrar Tu Voz Entre Las Sorpresas de la Vida - Pam Covarrubias : 176

    ¿Qué pasa cuando tus planes no funcionan, tu voz no es escuchada y aun así decides empezar de nuevo? En este episodio hablamos con Pam Covarrubias. Ella es coach, conferencista y conductora del podcast  Café con Pam, sobre lo que realmente significa reinventarse: el caos del camino, aprender a poner límites y esos momentos silenciosos donde la valentía es simplemente no regresar atrás. Desde un desvío en la adolescencia que la llevó a cruzar fronteras, hasta un momento en la universidad donde el perfil racial fue señalado y corregido, Pam aprendió algo clave: la voz no se regala, se construye. Esa voz, ganada a pulso, la guió fuera de una relación tóxica y hacia decisiones que por fuera parecían arriesgadas, pero por dentro se sentían correctas. Renunció a un trabajo estable sin un plan, tomó turnos en un café para ganar espacio y tiempo, y transformó los lattes en conversaciones. De ahí nació Café con Pam,  con un micrófono de segunda mano y la promesa de publicar, hoy suma más de 400 episodios de conversaciones inspiradoras y auténticas con personas latinas que rompen barreras. Si alguna vez te has preguntado si es posible reconstruirte desde cero, encontrar a tu gente y crear un trabajo que refleje quién eres, esta conversación te da un mapa y una buena dosis de coraje.  https://www.cafeconpam.com/ Send BEHAS a text.

    Running Toward Second Chances - John David Graham : 175

    What if the finish line you’ve been chasing keeps moving because life isn’t a race at all? John David Graham joins us at 77 with a story that rewrites the rules on success, failure, and second chances. After years bouncing between jobs, counsellor, truck driver, fireman, contractor, journalist, even pastor, he and his wife bought a beat-up house, fixed it themselves, and opened the door to someone few communities welcome: a man coming home from prison. That first “yes” sparked Good Samaritan Home, now a network of 21 houses across three counties, designed for low-risk reentry with real accountability and a clear path forward. We dig into what actually helps people rebuild: safe, independent housing; steady local partnerships with parole. John explains why they focus on one clear promise, housing, while the community handles the rest, and how this approach saves public dollars compared with incarceration while increasing long-term stability. He shares hard truths about change: not everyone is ready the first time, effort matters, and boundaries protect dignity. You’ll hear how small skills, applying for work, showing up, cooking your own meals, become major turning points when shame and isolation have been the norm. Threaded through the episode is a powerful theme: hope as a habit. John’s debut novel brings that idea to life through a character born behind the starting line, a story many readers recognize as their own. We talk about family resilience, useful ageing, and the quiet heroics of curiosity, like his wife, in her late 70s, learning home repairs on YouTube and helping keep 21 houses running. If you’ve ever felt behind, boxed in by labels, or unsure how to help, this conversation offers a map: start small, stay accountable, and keep going, one practical step at a time. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a nudge of hope, and leave a review to help others find stories that move them. https://johndavidgraham.com/ Award-winning novel RUNNING AS FAST AS I CAN.

    From Burnout To Spiritual Awakening - Padmini Pandya : 174

    What if the life you built was only training for the life you’re meant to live? Padmini Pandya joins us to trace a life shaped across continents and identities, born in the UK to East African Indian parents, rooted in Hindu tradition, and transformed by a decade in Asia, before corporate burnout cracked open an entirely different path. A modern-day polymath, Padmini is a storyteller, strategist, and soulful creator. Through Pieces of Miss Mini, she shares stories, lessons, and beauty from her global journey, defying any single definition of identity. She holds four degrees, including an MBA from INSEAD and a Master’s in Industrial & Organizational Psychology. In this conversation, we explore how success can quietly become an identity, why leaving a city that doesn’t fit can unlock momentum, and what it takes to rebuild when grief doesn’t have a name. Padmini speaks candidly about intuition, loss, spiritual practice grounded in logic, managing big energy, and cultivating aligned friendships—without falling into comparison. For creators and leaders navigating burnout, reinvention, or a longing for belonging, this episode offers clarity, courage, and a reminder to tend your own garden.

    Del “Hello” a la Fluidez - Cómo su Amor por el Inglés se Volvió una Misión "Pa'Mi Gente" - Erika Warner : 172

    ¿Qué tal si lo más difícil de aprender inglés no fuera la gramática, sino la vergüenza? En este episodio hablamos con Erika Warner, profesora de inglés certificada con 10 años de experiencia y, sobre todo, inmigrante latina orgullosa, con la misión de educar y empoderar a su gente. Pasó de ser estudiante de ESL en Denver a enseñar por el mundo y crear Spanish Land en Boise, además de inglés pa' mi gente, cursos y clases online increíbles para apoyar a adultos que se sienten estancados.   Su historia recorre de Mallorca a Moscú e Idaho y muestra cómo la identidad, la comunidad y los pequeños logros diarios pueden transformar la voz de cualquier aprendiz. Erika explica por qué tantos adultos se quedan atrapados en “la etapa difícil del medio” y cómo avanzar con frases simples, comunicación clara y correcciones que cuidan la dignidad. Una conversación para quienes quieren dejar el perfeccionismo atrás y empezar a sentir progreso: pedir un café sin nervios, hacer una pregunta en el trabajo, atreverse a hacer una llamada. Comunicación primero, constancia después y el resto llega solo. Pa' mi gente - Erika Warner Send BEHAS a text. Support the show To Share - Connect & Relate: Share Your Thoughts and Shape the Show!
