    Hard Conversations You Need to Have With Yourself

    In this episode, Josh and Bob hold up the mirror — hard. This isn’t a pep talk; it’s a reality check for anyone frustrated with their career, the market, or leadership. They unpack the idea of being “Me First” — not in a selfish way, but in a self-accountable way. Instead of waiting for someone else to fix the market, find your job, or create your opportunity, start by asking: What do I need to change? What can I do differently? The duo call out the tough truths facing agile professionals, coaches, and leaders right now. The golden age of “easy wins” is over. The only sustainable strategy is honest self-reflection and intentional evolution. If you’ve been waiting for the world to shift back in your favor, stop waiting. The next version of your career starts with you.

  2. Why Networking Still Beats Any Career Hack

    ٢٧ أكتوبر

    Why Networking Still Beats Any Career Hack

    This episode dives into one of the most "avoided" skills in career growth — networking that actually matters. Josh and Bob pull back the curtain on how real connections, not polished résumés, shape opportunities, careers, and even leadership credibility. The conversation hits on a key truth: too many professionals are obsessing over self-improvement in isolation — certifications, frameworks, “personal brands” — while ignoring the real engine of progress: people. Relationships. Community. This is not about transactional networking. It’s about building a system of genuine connection — one that gives, supports, and keeps you growing long after your current role. Not sure where to start, you can give Bob's Moose Herd a shot. 20-Minute Networking Meeting Book that Josh referenced.

  3. How to Use AI Without Losing Yourself

    How to Use AI Without Losing Yourself

    This episode isn’t another AI hype session — it’s a wake-up call. Josh and Bob dig into the growing trend of professionals outsourcing their craft to AI tools, whether it’s writing code, managing products, or even “leading” through automation. The conversation gets real as Josh shares his own experiment of building a full product through AI (and what it cost him in confidence and skill). This is not an anti-AI rant. It’s a rallying cry to stay grounded in human intelligence — your experience, judgment, curiosity, and teamwork. AI can augment your craft, but it should never replace it. If you’ve ever wondered where the line is between leveraging tools and losing your edge, this episode is your mirror moment.

  4. Anxiety Isn’t The Enemy — it’s The Signal

    ١٣ أكتوبر

    Anxiety Isn’t The Enemy — it’s The Signal

    This week, Josh and Bob take on one of leadership’s most under-discussed realities: anxiety. Leading is hard enough. Leading while anxious? That’s another level. In this raw and personal episode, they unpack what anxiety looks like in real leaders — not as something to suppress or “manage,” but as something to understand, even befriend. They share personal stories about how anxiety has shaped their decisions, moments they’ve fumbled through tough conversations (including a very human “first time firing someone” story), and how anxiety can actually serve as a signal — a reminder of care, growth, and awareness. This isn’t a “how to stay calm” episode. It’s a conversation about why anxiety exists for a reason — and how great leaders use it to stay self-aware, humble, and human.

  5. Self-Care for Leaders Who Never Stop

    ٦ أكتوبر

    Self-Care for Leaders Who Never Stop

    In this episode, Josh and Bob take a reflective detour from their usual leadership banter. They challenge each other with spontaneous “When was the last time…” questions—raw, unscripted, and deeply human. From vulnerability and ethical courage to the power of self-care and connection, this episode models what it looks like when two seasoned leaders drop the masks and just talk. You’ll hear stories about asking for help, putting your foot in your mouth, saving “baby trees,” and rediscovering what really matters: relationships, rest, and self-awareness. This is leadership stripped of theater—leaders practicing reflection, not performance.

  6. Trusting Your Gut: The Vanishing Skill of Modern Leadership

    ٢٩ سبتمبر

    Trusting Your Gut: The Vanishing Skill of Modern Leadership

    In this episode, Josh and Bob dive into the uncomfortable but powerful role of intuition in leadership. Data-driven decision-making has become the default, but what happens when the data runs out—or worse, when it misleads you? Both share personal stories of times they ignored their gut and paid the price, and times when trusting that inner signal made all the difference. This isn’t about rejecting data. It’s about recognizing intuition as another form of input—one that leaders often suppress out of fear it won’t “sound logical.” Josh and Bob challenge listeners to remember times they silenced their inner voice, reflect on the outcomes, and start treating gut instincts as signals worth listening to. If you’ve ever wrestled with the balance between logic and instinct, this episode will push you to rethink how you make decisions.
