  • Great team! Great thoughts!

    A couple pocasts stand out: The 4 Stages of Burnout and Leadership Development with Terry Walling. I love the distinction between coaching and mentoring. The quote that grabbed me most was from Terry that goes something like this. “Taking a coaching posture with periodic mentoring. Helping people discover what is inside them and then periodically adding to it.” (rough quote) The whole podcast combined with your podcast on Burnout got my leadership mind racing.

  • Great topics and informative podcasts!

    I am slowly going through the HABO Village podcasts and gathering some amazing gold nuggets of wisdom, lessons learned and never too late to know information that I can apply as a leader of my team at work, in my personal side business and just as a human who is always looking to improve who I am as a sister, friend, co-worker and person!

    I wish I had discovered these sooner. But it’s never too late, right?

    Great podcast. The content is light yet serious and useful. The way Micheal and Kathryn carry a conversation about the topics shows they are very knowledgable about the subject matter. I could hear their personalities and passion for the subject matter flowing out my earbuds. Looking forward to more.
