    Rebuild Podcast: Back in the Ring: Navigating Global Chaos and Personal Rebuilds

    Welcome back to The Rebuild podcast! After a break that felt like "forever," hosts Carmen Turner and Beth Borody catch up on significant global and personal events. They reflect on the idea that life is a constant rebuild, a perspective they are becoming more comfortable with, accepting that rebuilding doesn't have a set end point. The episode touches on navigating the current global and Canadian turmoil, drawing parallels to the uncertainty felt during the initial COVID-19 lockdown and recent political shifts. Beth notes their generation is accustomed to this volatility, having experienced over five economic recessions. Amidst the challenges, they emphasize the importance of focusing on what they can control within their communities and lives, seeking positives, and finding opportunities. Key topics discussed include: Navigating Turmoil & Life as a Constant Rebuild: The hosts acknowledge the significant global shifts, including the political atmosphere mirroring the US election and recent Canadian political events. They discuss the feeling of continuous change and the need to focus on controllable actions within one's community amidst uncertainty. Finding positives, seeking opportunities, and maintaining joy are crucial for building resilience. Beth's Champs for Charity Boxing Journey: Beth shares her experience training intensely for 16 weeks for a legitimate boxing match as part of a charity event for McMaster Children's Hospital. She discovered a love for boxing as a way to quiet her mind. Despite feeling prepared and performing strongly, the fight outcome wasn't what she hoped for, and she sustained a significant injury. Beth applies the concept of "output versus outcome" from a previous guest, Ben Sporer, expressing pride in her preparation and performance (output) regardless of the result. She is grateful for her remote work situation which allows her to continue working while healing, and appreciates her support network. The event raised $700,000 for the hospital. Carmen's Sustainability Community Initiative: Carmen discusses creating a community for women in the sustainability, ESG, and impact fields, who often feel lonely and prone to burnout from constantly making the business case and influencing others. Inspired by connecting in nature and resilient fungi networks, she sought a simple, non-traditional way to connect women. She launched a boat sauna excursion idea, which resonated strongly, selling out in two days and generating a waitlist. This simple approach to "setting the table" for connection has proven highly effective. The Vital Role of Community: Throughout the episode, both hosts highlight the increasing need for community, especially among women, during challenging times. They see their respective communities (Feminina and the new sustainability group) as crucial spaces for support, connection, and empowerment, where people come together during hardships.

    The Rebuild S2E11 - From Olympic Sports to the Boardroom, Rebuilding with a Performance Lens with Dr. Ben Sporer

    In this episode of "The Rebuild" podcast, hosts Carmen and Beth interview Ben Sporer, a human performance expert, about optimizing performance and rebuild periods using lessons from the world of sports. Ben is a leader in human performance with a background in Olympic and professional sports. He is the founder of Resync Consulting and an adjunct professor at the University of British Columbia. Key discussion points: •The genesis of the discussion: The conversation is inspired by the idea of sports teams undergoing rebuild periods, which sparked the concept for the podcast. •Output versus Outcome: Ben clarifies that while winning is important, it is an outcome that is not always within one's control3. He emphasizes the significance of focusing on output, which includes preparation and performance, as it is something one can control. Success is more than winning. •Managing messaging: The discussion touches on how the message of focusing on output is received differently by athletes at the peak of their performance versus those in a slump. •Performance objective: Ben introduces the concept of viewing life through a performance lens, where individuals must identify their performance objectives, the required output to achieve them, and whether they can realistically deliver that output. •Honesty and objective setting: Ben stresses the importance of being honest about one's performance objectives and recognizing when those objectives change, using his own career and family life as examples. •Measuring success: The episode explores how people measure whether they are doing enough and the tendency to silo those measurements. Ben uses the analogy of a pitcher of water and multiple glasses to illustrate how individuals choose where to allocate their capacity and energy. Prioritization and focus: Ben advises being intentional about which "glasses" or areas to focus on. He introduces the concept of net performance impact, which involves assessing the positive and negative impacts of different actions on overall performance. • Support System: The necessity of a solid support system is emphasized to effectively manage training and performance demands. •Integrated output: Ben describes the core four of performance as the physical, mental, technical, and tactical. •Keeping your eyes on your own lane: It is important to know what the competition is doing, but it is more important to be clear on your own objectives. •Working with Executives: Ben discusses how he applies these principles to coaching executives, often starting with a physical goal and then expanding to address broader aspects of their lives and careers. •Continuous learning: Ben notes that high performers have a growth mindset, but they need to understand whether they are successful because of their choices or in spite of them. •Final advice: Be honest about the performance objective.
