    #6: Don’t Let Them Be Lonely

    Harvard Business Review delivers with this article about how burnout isn’t just about exhaustion, but loneliness is playing a key role in unengaged employees. Leaders can connect their employees to their mission by making them feel valued and an important part of the work.

    #4: A Tanning Salon, Homemade Pies, & a College Spanish Class

    I sit down with my college best friend to talk about our friendship, being in our early 20, our outlook on families, and our unique experience of working at a tanning salon together. You'll hear this episode and hopefully reflect on your own beliefs, your youth, and learn some new perspective along the way. I encourage you to call an old friend after listening and opening up the bank of memories and good conversation.

    #3: Are You an Inclusive Leader?

    When thinking about leaders, it's important that there is a level of inclusivity that allows all to be successful in their positions in the workplace. This isn't a grand idea that is hard to attain. There are simple behaviors that leaders can exhibit and practice to ensure the people they serve can soar. In this episode, I have Tyrone Void, a campus administrator in the school district I am in, join me in a conversation around leaders and inclusivity. I chose Tyrone for this topic because we are able to have respectful and transparent conversations around sometimes hard-to-navigate content. As you will hear, one leadership topic ALWAYS goes off into another and we weave together different themes all related together or eloquently put, get in some rabbit holes. Either way, I hope you examine yourself in the leadership capacities that you serve and ask yourself, are you being inclusive in your communications, words, implicit and explicit messaging, and behaviors. Enjoy the conversation!  Show Resource Fast Company Article: Employees sound off on what makes a truly inclusive leader

    #1: Altruism: Get Your Help On!

    “When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”- Fred Rogers Altruism and being helpful are the pillars of our communities. Being altruistic is not a natural trait for humans and must be intentional action taken daily. This episode examines what altruism and helping others is all about, the benefits (backed by research!) of helping others, and ways you can start helping in your relationships, with strangers, and at work right now.  Episode Sources In Helping Others, Help Yourself Scientific Benefits to Helping Others How Helping Others Benefits You

    BANDE-ANNONCE DE L’ÉPISODE 1, SAISON 1

    Trailer & Welcome!

    Welcome to the podcast Obsessive Edification. This podcast was created based on the words in the title. The word edification means the instruction or improvement of a person morally or intellectually. I’m obsessed with personal growth and knowing more about a variety of topics (ranging from leadership development, communications theory, human interactions, trends, and more!). I often get excited about a book I’m reading, information I’m diving into, or an article that I came across. I’ll call friends to tell them all about the content and they insist on me sharing what I’m learning in a way that’s easy to listen to and in summary form. SO here it is, a way for me to share the content I’m excited and passionate about and for you to hear about it. Grab a coffee, fold some laundry, enjoy your commute, or just  sit back to listen, I’m glad you’re here.
