What motivates people? Why do they do what they do? What does leadership actually mean in today’s world? Good questions, right? That’s what Cathy Brooks, thought. And it’s why she created Talk, Unleashed – a podcast of candid conversation. Sometimes as commentary. Sometimes as discussions with fascinating people doing remarkable things. Topics range widely and all of them have one thing in common. Dogs.

    Move Fast. Break Things

    It’s a famously awful quote used by Mark Zuckerberg in Facebook’s (now Meta) early days.  Move fast. Break things. The idea behind it was, allegedly, to spark innovation; to remove obstacles in creativity by giving folks license to make mistakes, to iterate and to charge forward. This IS critical for innovation. Moving forward, moving quickly, not needing things to be “finished” or “perfect” before launching. AND as with so many things, taken literally and/or implemented by individuals who are focused on immediate goals rather than long term, this type of practice can have catastrophic impact. Just look at the devastation wrought by Facebook’s ham-handed approach to “connecting”people. The disintegration of our social fabric. The explosive rise of loneliness, depression and suicide - especially amongst overly digitally saturated teens. Were the creators and builders of the platform looking down the road, planning for contingencies and possibilities, could this have been avoided? Perhaps. We’ll never know know. We do know at least one Twitter founder who apologized for their ignorance of what they’d built. And so it has gone over the years with folks so focused on creation that they neglected to think about impact. Trouble is, if you spend too much time on that front, you don’t innovate. So it’s not really about moving fast and breaking things. It’s about being responsible and cleaning up whatever mess you create. And that’s what I discuss this week. In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything. Whether her own musings or in conversation with industry leaders, each episode invites curiosity.  Curiosity not about what people do, but why they do it. Who they are and what makes them tick. It’s about digging underneath to reveal the thing that is most true - that we are more alike than we are not. A mix of solo episodes where Cathy shares her insights and experience or Cathy engaged in conversation with fascinating humans doing amazing things. No matter the format - it’s unvarnished, radically honest and entirely unleashed.  This podcast compliments Unleashed Leadership, the coaching business through which Cathy works with symphony orchestras, corporate clients, and individuals to help them unleash and untether their leadership and connect with others in a way that truly engages. #movefastbreakthings #responsibility #accountability #planninghead #cleaningupmess #dogbehavior #baddogbehavior #dogtraining #shiftingbehavior #brutalhonesty #radicalhonesty #consciouscommunication #leadership #Conversation #connection #TalkUnleashed #fiercecompassion #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash

    Bumper Sticker Judgement

    Judgement.  Talk about a gateway to misery. Sure. It may feel satisfying for a hot minute, but just like letting fly with a nasty statement in retaliation when my feelings are hurt, the feeling is fleeting. More to the point, when I’m judging others, it says more about me, than it does about them. After all, who the f*ck am I to judge, anyway?  And yet, we all do it. What if, in the moment the judgement arises, instead we get curious? That’s what I discuss this week. Inspired  … by a bumper sticker.  In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything.

    In the Woods Where it Happened

    Thing about living in the woods - you get to be the ears present when a tree goes down. Doesn’t just make a sound.  Shakes the ground too. Turns out when it’s gone down, it also tells a story. And this week on the podcast, the conversation that ensues.

    That Stinks. Literally.

    I’ve always had the olfactory sense of a Bloodhound. I’d probably have made a superb “nose” for a French perfume company. Having an acute sense of smell is both blessing and curse - it also holds one secret to my masterful skills with dogs and turns out opened up pretty interesting insights about interactions between people. With the sense of smell being one of (if not THE) most important link to memory, what happens when a place (or person) smells, to put it simply, like sh*t?  Turns out that soothing the proboscis can soothe the experience of a place or person. I learned this first hand running a dog facility that was marked by several unique qualities - among the most notable and noticed, it didn’t smell like dogs. This week’s episode explores this experience, takes it into the woods and of course to people. In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation.

    Don't Just Disappear

    I’ll never forget the first time it happened.  I was talking with an engineer or coder type at a party. Their cell phone rang. They looked at it, answered it, and walked away without so much as an “excuse me”. In the middle of a sentence. I’d like to say it was the only time it happened. It wasn’t. Sadly this kind of thing happens with more and more frequency. Here’s the irony - when someone checks out (permanently or for a period of time) from some social media platform or another - they pronounce the departure with great fanfare. As if anyone actually would notice they’re gone given the blowtorch blast of content. Our social fabric and basic social contract sometimes feels ripped to shreds, the basic rules being utterly disregarded where it matters (interpersonal connection) and being applied in places they don’t even apply (“social” media). So this week, a mea culpa of sorts, and some thoughts on how to stitch that sh*t back together.

    Wokeness Creates Weakness

    There’s nothing like a provocative t-shirt to really make my day.  I used to have one that said “F*ck Yoga”. The reactions to it were epic. Most folks would look at it, look at me and laugh. Every now and again someone would get utterly twisted up with me about it and I’d tell them two things: It’s a fucking t-shirt.The t-shirt originated from a YOGA BRAND that was based in New York.Now don’t get me wrong, I’m not advocating t-shirts that spew hate, racist nonsense or such, but the other day when I saw a fellow wearing a t-shirt that initially raised my hackles. And then it piqued my curiosity. Wokeness Creates Weakness. And you know what, it’s right.

    Boundaries ARE Freedom

    Remember when you were a kid in school and some unruly kid couldn’t mind the rules and as a result the entire class faced consequences? Everyone being hit with staying late, extra homework, pop quizzes. I sure do. It sucked. DISCLAIMER - I’m not talking about kids who may have had undiagnosed situations that weren’t properly understood; who’d have been better served by a different learning environment. I’m talking about disruptive kids whose home lives failed to give them the basic social structure to help them be successful.Rules. Boundaries. They’re there for a reason. Structure is how humans operate. Those things can be taken to an extreme - usually by deeply insecure humans whose need to control results in deeply domineering behavior. Ruling by fear. As we watch the world seemingly catch fire - despots and dictatorial sorts wielding alleged leadership like a blunt force object and people chafing, shoving back or cowering, checking out - I’m reminded boundaries CAN be good. What’s delightful is dogs get this so much better than we do. And that’s where we go this week. In a world where what passes for radical honesty usually means someone is just letting things fly outta their pie-hole without much care for others, it’s time for radically authentic conversation. Conscious communication is simple, but often isn’t easy. That’s why Cathy Brooks created Talk, Unleashed – a weekly podcast of radically honest conversation about — everything.

    Ignorance or Stupidity?

    I don’t know about you but I’m of the generation where calling someone “stupid” resulted in varying levels of punishment. In my house the word was tantamount to the F-bomb.  Funny how it seems lately that everyone is pointing fingers and calling other people just that. But is it really stupidity? Or is it ignorance? Truth is, in many cases it’s the latter. How do you figure that out and what does that have to do with dog behavior? Good questions. Listen to this episode.
