    MBS984 - The Threshold: The Convenience Trap

    Send us Fan Mail In this episode of The Threshold, Matt, Brent, and Rich reunite after more than a year apart to talk about how much life can change, and how the things designed to make life easier don’t always make it better. Matt opens up about divorce, grief, losing his father, and navigating dating again in a world of apps, endless choice, and what he calls the “convenience trap.” Brent reflects on balancing a thriving business and family life with health, a move toward farm living, and the feeling that midlife may offer a rare combination of experience, freedom, and clarity. Rich shares his return to jiu-jitsu, the pressure of adapting a business in an AI-driven world, and why genuine human connection may become even more valuable as technology gets better at imitating it. The conversation moves through dating, masculinity, marriage, parenting, co-parenting, changing expectations between men and women, and what happens when you reach a stage of life where you know yourself better and become more deliberate about where you spend your time. Along the way, they explore why convenience can sometimes work against us, whether it’s swiping instead of meeting people in the real world, relying on technology instead of conversation, or choosing the easy option over the experiences that actually create meaning. It’s part reunion, part therapy session, and part midlife reality check. A conversation about relationships, resilience, real human connection, and why the harder path can sometimes be the one worth taking. Support the show

    MBS982- Inclusify With Dr. Stefanie K. Johnson

    Send us Fan Mail Humans have two basic desires: to stand out and to fit in. Companies respond by creating groups that tend to the extreme—where everyone fits in and no one stands out, or where everyone stands out and no one fits in. How do we find that happy medium where workers can demonstrate their individuality while also feeling they belong? The answer, according to Stefanie Johnson, is to Inclusify. In this essential handbook, she explains what it means to Inclusify and how it can be used to strengthen any business. Inclusifying—unlike “diversifying” or “including”— implies a continuous, sustained effort towards helping diverse teams feel engaged, empowered, accepted, and valued. It’s no use having diversity if everyone feels like an outsider, she contends. In her research, Johnson found common problems leaders exhibit which frustrate their attempts to create diverse and cohesive teams. Leaders that underestimated the importance of group coherence and dynamics often have employees who do not feel like they belong; leaders that ignore the benefits of listening to different perspectives leave some people feeling like they cannot be their authentic selves. By contrast, leaders who Inclusify can forge strong relationships with their teams, inspire greater productivity from all of their workers, and create a more positive environment for everyone. Having a true range of different voices is good for the bottom line—it allows for the development of the best, most innovative, and creative solutions that are essential to success.  Support the show Support the show Support the show
