  • Outstanding podcast!

    Brandon is a truly talented host. For my interview, the questions he asked my book homed in on the most important points; I couldn’t have had better if I had written them myself.

    Me aside, his guests are unfailingly interesting people with worthwhile ideas to share. If you’re looking for your next big inspirational idea, chances are high you’ll find it on most any of Brandon’s episodes.

  • That ep with Sarah is awesome!

    Hey Brandon, that conversation with Sarah was gold. I resonated with what you mentioned regarding leading and managing people - that it’s advantageous when you utilize and leverage technology to speed up tedious, repetitive tasks so you have more time for your team. Left you 5-star ratings and reviews!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stop Telling Your People to Get Over It, with Tara Rolstad
Q: When someone on a team says “I'm fine” but appears not to be, what should a manager do?
Rolstad recommends continuing to check in without pressuring the person, naming specific observations and expressing concern for them, not just their work. Managers can make clear they are available whenever the employee wants to talk.
Stop Telling Your People to Get Over It, with Tara Rolstad
Q: What does a family member know that an expert without lived experience doesn't?
Rolstad says family members understand the isolation, loneliness, shame, and dark humor that can accompany mental health challenges. Their lived experience can make the subject more relatable than a purely clinical overview.
If You Want to Go Fast, You Need Great Brakes, with Christian Poensgen
Q: You described the first five or 10 minutes of a focus session as the prefrontal cortex overriding a limbic system that doesn't want to do the work. What does that feel like from the inside? What's happening there?
He explains that the initial five to ten minutes of challenging work are a normal resistance phase. Once people persist through it, distraction urges tend to ease and focus improves, often for a roughly 70-to-80-minute stretch before a break is needed.
If You Want to Go Fast, You Need Great Brakes, with Christian Poensgen
Q: Your new book, by the time this releases, the book will be out, Ultraproductive, The 90-Minute Method to Optimize Focus, Sleep, and Stress. The title is Ultraproductive, so what does ultra mean in that?
Poensgen says the goal is to do excellent work without sacrificing health or relationships, by working with the body's and brain's rhythms rather than simply maximizing output.
Why Your Team Won't Give You the Real Feedback, with Tanya Uyigue
Q: If you're speaking to the managers who are listening right now and they have got a new hire, what are like three questions or things that they'd ask of that employee about how they can work together early on in the relationship to make sure it's successful?
She recommends asking about the conditions in which the employee has done well, how they approach goals and problems, what they do when struggling, and how they prefer to be recognized or rewarded.
