  • Taking Command with Captain Tom: Building a Culture of Cooperation
    Oct 18 2023

    At age 60, Tom got a job at a shipyard in Panama City, Florida after completing a 5000 mile sailing journey that started in California. He quickly acclimated to the business and got promoted.  The company culture was not team based, it was as if the different departments were competing with each other and didn't know they all had the same goal.  Using his recently acquired personal development skills he was able to get the teams to work together and build a culture of cooperation in the company.  Listen and learn how he was able to accomplish it.

  • The American Education System: Why and How It's Ripe for Reinvention.
    Oct 11 2023

    In this episode Dawn dives into how our relationships with ourself and others develops. In the home environment for sure, but also when we enter and go through the educational system.  In Claim Your Dream Life,  Dawn explains how we have BIG DREAMS when we are children, believing we can be and do anything we want.  Then we become conditioned over time to temper our dreams and be "realistic".  By they time we reach adulthood, sadly just earning a steady paycheck is often our new “Dream”. 

    What can we do?  Dawn believes the answer lies in revamping the current system as our Industrial Era educational system’s one-size-fits-all approach often leaves students disconnected with each other, bored and disinterested in learning. There is good news.

    A non-profit called Transcend is partnering with communities to LISTEN to young people and learn how we can reinvent learning and the educational system.

This guest is out of touch.

Thus is the first episode of this series I listened to. I was interested in learning about Mexico. The guest of this episode clearly is focused on being "rich". She lacks any sensitivity to the plight of others, as evidenced by her assumption her inlaws would be so grateful to her for moving them from the home that was comfortable to them into her B I G house and expecting them to be her servants. Near the end she talks about how much she hates the US, and it's absurd laws like actually stopping at a stop sign, and poor her for having monthly traffic tickets of $2k per month. She clearly has no concept of community nor the notion of "public" safety, and how we all have a role to play. I am glad she has her 4 "employees" to serve her every need so she can do all her very important things.
I will listen to one more podcast in this series, and hopefully it won't be as obnoxious.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
