  • The Blending of Leadership Styles & Why Leaders Need To Put in the Reps with Taylor Pilkington (Part 1 of 2)
    Nov 27 2023

    For this first of two episodes with this guest, I welcome Taylor Pilkington. Taylor is the Founder, Owner and Operator of Soccer Genome; a skills training facility located in Raleigh North Carolina. SG was established in 2011 with the philanthropic Genome Foundation which is a 501c3 getting up and running in 2015. And while many of you might be thinking that Taylor is just another soccer head and this was his obvious life path… you’d be partial right. While he is definitely passionate about the sport; it’s the varied examples of leadership and where they came from that make Taylor’s story unique. His philosophies … blended. Whether we’re talking about his deep rooted passion for the people he coaches and employs, the ever changing craft and art to coaching or his business philosophies that show an experience and interest similar to many C-Suite execs that I’ve dealt with over the years… Taylor’s passion, grit and mentality are full on and I can’t wait for you all to hear us chop it up. Air pods – Check. Favorite Beverage – Check. Excited to get down with Mentality Matters – Double Check. I hope you enjoy…

  • Strength Resiliency and Why Hard Matters with Susan White
    Nov 20 2023

    This week I’m joined by Susan White – a licensed and trained mental health professional who found exercise and running as a way to search out the hard things. But why? Why search out the hard? We talk about it. And we also dig into why it's vital that we allow our children to fail during our watch. She gives several “Ah-Ha” moments that I can’t wait for you to chew on. Like why the system surrounding young people matters and how a shift in our mentality about our own strength resiliency  and post traumatic growth can wildly affect how we view ourselves and how we can start to run our lives. I hope you enjoy listening  to this episode as much as I did. If so, share it, like it and give Mentality Matters a follow on your favorite streaming service and our Instagram page at Mentality _ Matters _ Podcast. So fill up you favorite mug. Enjoy the conversation. And much love!
