Episode 8 viewers and listeners, meet Carye Farrell. Mother. Magician. Entrepreneur. Professional. Jack of all trades.
In Episode 7, I got the opportunity to chat with Jonathan Torres, owner of Falkenburg Productions and LiveWeddings.net.
What a joy it was to speak with Josy Martinez early in the morning (so, so early) as we recorded Episode 6 of Bright Ideas! Josy and I go way back to our Skyscanner days in Miami. Naturally, we draw on similar yet very different experiences in the workplace for today’s conversation.
Ever since one of her first high school jobs, Dianne knew she wanted a career in the hospitality field. Dianne graduated from Palm Beach Community College (now Palm Beach State College) with an Associate’s degree in Hospitality Management, and again from the University of South Florida (GO BULLS!) with a Bachelor’s in Business Management. While she studied, Dianne pursued her career goal of becoming a restaurant general manager.
Speaking with Autumn was such a pleasure! Her bright, sunny demeanor is freeing – and she says it like it is. In Episode 4 of #BrightIdeas, Autumn and I talk a lot about back-up plans and “if” versus “when” in terms of failure. We discuss how the way we frame aspirational planning to young people can completely alter their potential for success, and how the paradigm needs to shift.
I’ve never met anyone like Matthew Porter, and I’m so excited for you to meet him in Episode 3 of Bright Ideas! His energy and attitude are light and refreshing; and now I feel like I’m describing a new beer. 😊 In this episode of #BrightIdeas, Matthew and I delve deep into management and leadership – specifically misconceptions about the relationship between management and leadership, and the inherent traits of each.
It’s not everyday you get the opportunity to meet and chat with someone like Jinita Thakkar. As you’ll hear in Episode 2, Jinita is one of the most thoughtful and eloquent speakers I’ve ever met. She has the amazing ability to process information and rephrase or reposition the thread in a clear and concise manner.
Take some time to watch Episode 1 of Bright Ideas as Mahriah and I discuss not only her career path, but also some of the challenges she had to overcome in her adolescence.
In this series of videos, I’m speaking with real professionals from different industries, from different parts of the world, at different stages in their careers.
