And just to talk with you again. Yeah. You know, we've had a couple of casual conversations here and there, but I think, uh, you know, we obviously engage a lot on LinkedIn, but I think this is probably going to be our first, you know, legit lengthy conversation.
Well, you know, David I'm crushed because you were on my podcast and she's not considered that Olympian. Well, yes, but I think that that's probably, that's probably more one sided towards me. So now I get up, I get a puck and pick your brain. No, how come? How come? Okay. I will on this one. I didn't know you were a PhD.
Tell me about this. Yeah. So, um, well, you know, I wish I had a really fabulous story about it. When I worked in corporate, I worked as an educational consultant, so it was assumed that I should get my doctorate. I've never taught. I've never been a teacher. I usually tell people I'm just not good with other people's kids because my know where the line is, but I focus on, I focus on providing training and professional development to, uh, People who worked in the education field.
But my favorite story when I got my PhD, my boys they're 23 and 26 now, but they were young. And so they were so excited and they told everybody mommy's a doctor, but not the kind that can help you. I'll just talk to you. I have been humbled ever since then. I'll just talk to you. Well, I think knowing where to draw the line in the sand, being good with other kids is probably a good thing to figure that out in advance.
Yes. Yes. I, you know, I agree. All right. So the usual two questions, question number one is what are you good at? And what are we potentially gonna learn from you today besides talking? Yeah. So I'm just going to talk to you. That's all I'm good at now. Actually I'm in the Lynch leadership line, so I'm a leadership development, personal growth coach and trainer.
And what I like to tell people is I design empowered leaders. Who then go out and empower others. And I'm also known as the bees. Yes, Buster, and so BS his belief system. But I also refer to it as that bullshit, swirl of negative. Emotions that run in our brain the whole time and the whole various successful people back.
So that's what I do. Well, I want to follow up on that here in a moment, but not until after I asked you question number two, which is what are you not so good at? I am not so good at singing and I absolutely love singing. I love it. It is, it is my stress reliever. It is my go to. And I'm not talking bad, I'm talking really bad.
Um, I've been called out a couple times. Uh, I was mowing grass one time and I had a fenced in yard and had headphones. Well, just jam. And while I was singing and. After about an hour after I was done mowing my neighbor checks me and he's like, Hey said, you know, cause I just put a fenced in backyard. He's like, how's the fence.
I'm like, I'm love it. And he said, Hey, your voice isn't that bad. And I was like, so now when I mow grass, I listened to books on tape. Well, that's what I was going to ask. It is like, even though you say you're not so great, do you, do you still try and sneak it in when he can in the shower and in the car and everywhere else?
In the house everywhere. I mean, if you see me in the car, I'm always singing. I'm, I'm the oldies, you know, the classical, the classic rock and roll, um, country. I imagined myself as a, um, West Virginia Cher at time. Cause I can fill it ou
