    Reweaving Community: Exploring Belonging with Kathy Coffey Solberg

    What if the answer to exhaustion at work isn't another initiative? What if, before we build something new, we need to understand what's already there?  This question is at the heart of today’s episode with Kathy Coffey Solberg, a community weaver and experienced leader, who has spent over two decades training leaders and shaping organizational culture. Her journey has led her to profound insights about connection, community, and the importance of understanding our foundational values. One of the most compelling metaphors in this conversation is that of fabric, illustrating how workplaces can be viewed as woven materials. The vertical warp threads represent foundational values, policies, and procedures, while the horizontal weft threads represent company culture, communication, and personality. Together, they create an environment of belonging, connection, and mattering. Kathy's insights remind us that understanding these threads is crucial for fostering environments and creating systems where individuals can thrive. As we reflect on these ideas, consider how you can contribute to creating a workplace or community where individuals feel they belong and matter.   To dive deeper into Kathy's insights and the framework of her new book, check out Reweaving What Matters and explore the transformative power of community and connection in your own life.

    The Hidden Climate Lever in Your Insurance Premiums with Nick Gardner

    Have you ever thought about what happens to your insurance premium after you pay it? In this episode of Redefine What’s Possible podcast, Nick Gardner, co-founder and Head of Partnerships & Community at Premiums for the Planet, helps us see insurance differently — not as a boring bill we pay once a year, but as a hidden system where dollars become capital, investments, influence, and ultimately part of the future we are building. We talk about Premiums for the Planet, climate finance, B Corps, the hidden power of commercial insurance, and why the money we are already spending may be one of the most overlooked levers for climate action. But this conversation goes deeper than insurance. Nick is also involved with the US Chamber of Connection, and we explore why connection, belonging, and community may be essential infrastructure for meaningful change. This episode is for anyone who wants their life, work, money, and community to better reflect the future they say they care about. One of the biggest biggest takeaways: You do not have to solve the whole system today, but you can start asking better questions.

    From Pain to Purpose: The Journey of Resilience and Vulnerability with Reggie D. Ford

    What if the very things that helped you survive and become resilient are the things that are keeping you from healing? That is the question Shanon explores with bestselling author, TEDx speaker, resilience expert and founder of Vulnerability Muscle Framework, Reggie D. Ford.  Reggie’s life story began with trauma, violence, and severe dysfunction shaped by poverty. Because his life started with such devastating circumstances, he normalized a life lived in constant survival mode. But, the strategies that helped him survive were not the same strategies that helped him heal. By harnessing the power of vulnerability, he was able to transform his pain into his purpose and pull himself out of the darkness and suffering to create a clear sense of meaning and direction in his own life.  One of the most important takeaways from this conversation? Leaning into and recognizing the power of vulnerability can help you break the curse of generational trauma and discover your own true potential. This is a deeply vulnerable and heartfelt conversation about survival, using success as a shield, finding meaning in adversity, and embarking on the lifelong journey of healing.  Reggie’s inspiring story shows us that we can redefine what’s possible in our lives when we stop performing for worth and start living from it.  You can keep up with Reggie on Instagram, LinkedIn, Youtube, and his website.

    Living Well with Whoop: A Conversation on Sleep, Strain, and Recovery

    In this week’s episode of the Redefine What’s Possible podcast, Shanon and Kelly Tysland sit down for a conversation about the wearable Whoop device and the undoubted positive impact it has had on their everyday lives as business owners and busy parents of four children. With Whoop guidance, they are able to use personalized data to balance family life and personal wellness by optimizing sleep, minimizing strain, and maximizing recovery. By receiving daily feedback and guidance, they are able to build connection, adjust habits, and identify how they can best support each other.  Whoop is able to give them more than just data. It allows them to stay connected and understand where they are at in terms of capacity. Paying attention to their personal metrics not only helps set them up for a better life, but gives them something to connect on that’s moving them forward with their goals, relationship, family, health, and fitness.  While wearable technology is able to give us powerful data, one of the best benefits it offers is not just the opportunity to do more, but to be smarter with how you use your energy.  The end goal is not perfect metrics.  The goal is to live well and show up fully for the life you want to live.

    Exploring Leadership, Legacy, and Presence with Mark Canlis

    In this week’s episode of the Redefine What’s Possible podcast, Shanon sits down with Mark Canlis—third-generation owner of famed Seattle fine dining destination, Canlis—for a conversation about leadership, legacy, presence, and the secret ingredient of life: love. For Mark’s grandfather and founder of Canlis, success meant being the greatest restaurant in the world. Today, Mark’s philosophy goes way beyond providing a great dining experience. Success means caring deeply for the people around you, whether that’s guests coming in to enjoy a meal, or the team members working alongside you. It’s about a passion for hospitality, a culture of care, and creating a place where people can be their whole, authentic selves.  Mark didn’t just inherit a restaurant. He inherited a host of values and principles that continue to guide him today. This episode is an inspiring story about daring to care, being present, and choosing to run a business not driven by fear, but firmly rooted in hope and love.

    Creating the Recipe for Sustainable Change with Dr. Heather McKee

    Have you ever attempted to build a new habit, but found yourself struggling to follow through? What if our failures are not so much a lack of discipline or willpower, but that we were never taught to create change in a way that actually works in real life?  In this week’s episode, Shanon shares an insightful conversation with Dr. Heather McKee, a health behavior change specialist, about building healthier habits rooted in real life with more self-compassion and consistency. Dr. McKee has spent more than a decade studying the psychology of lasting habit change and bridging the gap between our desires and our actions. Her work centers around helping people and organizations create sustainable, evidence-based changes in a world that prioritizes quick fixes.  This inspiring conversation emphasizes the importance of struggling on the road to success, how motivation is not always a reliable driver of change, and how to think of behavior change more as a skill to be built rather than an inherent trait.  If you have ever stumbled in your journey and want to build habits that are grounded in honesty, intention, and self-compassion, this episode is for you.  To keep up with Dr. McKee and the latest in behavioral science, you can find her on LinkedIn.
