    Continuing with our theme of “What Brings Us Hope,”  we are excited to introduce you to a World-class research scientist, Dr. Matt Sturchio, PhD, who is transforming how we think about solar energy. Most people know that solar panels are used to feed the grid, so we can heat and light up our homes or recharge our vehicles. Imagine a world where solar panels coexist with native plants, nourishing the soil and possibly mitigating some of our worst climate challenges. What if we could grow more habitats for foraging animals?  Listen in and learn about Ecovoltaics, and how Matt’s research is transforming our future.  Hear about Matt’s Cornell University project focusing on the co-location of agriculture and solar, in New York State and beyond. If you, like us, are interested in learning about how existing materials are shaping a better world for now and for our future, listen to this episode. We HOPE you will feel as inspired as we do.

    Breaking New Ground: Our First Public Speaking Milestone on Hope

    We’re beyond excited to share our first-ever public speaking engagement, on the topic of HOPE—at the International Organization Development Network Conference. It’s only Day One but we are already learning so much! We spent this great day meeting fellow OD Professionals and learning from some of the pioneers in our profession.  What does it feel like to step onto a global stage for the first time? How can somatic practices, like music, create alignment across systems and organizations? Do you know what Agency is and why it matters? And what unexpected insights emerge when you sit in a World Café conversation, where collective wisdom takes shape through dialogue? In this episode, we reflect on what we learned, how it inspired us, and why this milestone matters for our journey. Curious? Come listen in—you might discover ideas that spark your own growth, too.

    We Are Back!!! Welcome To Season FIVE!

    We are SO excited to be back from our annual Summer break AND to introduce Season FIVE of Lifting Leaders Podcast!  We did a lot during our six-week sabbatical, and we want to share some of it with you.  Listen in and hear about a key lesson learned, during this time off.  Hint…how many activities can one commit to, in a six-week period of time?  Hear about a related lesson learned that we believe everyone should heed, particularly when winding down from work or school. Check out our latest series, focusing on What Brings Us Hope, that will  officially kick off next week. We will be digging into different ways people find and feel more aligned with hope.  So, if you find hope in art, music, the environment, activism, whatever, you will likely find a great deal of inspiration in this series.  It took approximately 15 minutes to get the show notes written (counting spelling and grammatical corrections!).  This episode is just about 20 minutes longer than that – and you don’t need Spell Check!   Let’s keep that conversation going, shall we?

    It’s a Wrap! Closing Season Four – Starting Our Summer Break!

    Well, we did it!  Season Four is coming to a close, just as we begin our annual Summer break (August, anyway!). In this episode, we share some of the highlights from this season’s show, with fantastic guests, insightful Gem episodes, Coaches Corners and more.  We learned and accomplished so much, this season, from offering a series on Coaching from the Heart; visiting our local plant nursery, to learn more about indigenous plants that attract pollinators; and sharing the spotlight during the Hudson Institute Learning Conference.  Everything we offered and everything we did this season gave you, our listeners, opportunities to grow and to explore new and different possibilities.  Hey! We even learned a bit from and about Chat GPT!  We are so grateful that you are part of our listening network, and we look forward to bringing even more in the new season. In fact, we have some ideas for a few new series, in Season Five, and we HOPE you will join us. We are taking the month of August off, as we do, every year.  Keep your ears and eyes open for an Season Five announcement, coming in early September.  Collectively, we are all making the world a better place.  Let’s keep that conversation going, shall we?
