"Storytelling heals the brain." "No struggle, no story." "Life happens in moments." Episode summary | In this episode of Return on Generosity, host Shannon Cassidy speaks with Scott Mann, a former Green Beret and founder of Rooftop Leadership. They discuss the importance of generosity in leadership, the power of storytelling, and how to build trust in low-trust environments. Scott shares his journey from military service to becoming a playwright and advocate for veterans, emphasizing the healing power of personal stories. The conversation also touches on the creation of his play 'Last Out: Elegy of a Green Beret' and the work of his nonprofit, Task Force Pineapple, which focuses on supporting veterans and their families. R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | Generosity is key to personal and professional growth. Building trust requires understanding both yourself and others. Storytelling is a powerful tool for healing and connection. Leaders must manage emotional temperatures in conversations. Personal stories can resonate universally and foster connection.

He is a warrior storyteller and the President and founder of Rooftop Leadership, a leadership consulting and training company in Tampa, Florida where he shares the rapport-building skills he learned in Special Forces to help today’s leaders make better human connections when stakes are high and trust is low. Scott helps organizations gain a better understanding of their internal culture while exposing the potential for conflict that exists when trust has deteriorated. In the same way he empowered local tribes in Iraq and Afghanistan to make transformative decisions using very few resources, Scott teaches corporate leaders and their teams the relationship-building techniques that drove so many of his successful combat operations. Scott is the NYT Best-selling Author of Operation Pineapple Express and #1 International Best-Selling Author of Game Changers, Going Local to Defeat Violent Extremists.

"Choose to be okay with who you are." "Self-acceptance is not the opposite of self-improvement; it is the opposite of self-judgment." "It's about being more at peace with the imperfection that exists in all of us." "You are never responding to the world around you, ever - you are only ever responding to the meaning that you're putting on what is happening." Episode summary | Dr. Laura Gallaher, an organizational psychologist and author, shares her journey from working with NASA to promoting radical self-acceptance. She discusses the importance of psychological safety in organizations, the relationship between self-acceptance and self-improvement, and how stress is often a choice influenced by our self-judgment. Dr. Gallaher emphasizes that self-acceptance is crucial for personal growth and effective leadership, and she provides practical insights on how to cultivate a more accepting relationship with oneself. R.O.G. Takeaway Tips | Radical self-acceptance involves embracing all aspects of oneself, including flaws and strengths. Self-acceptance is not the opposite of self-improvement; they can coexist. Stress is often a choice based on the meaning we assign to situations. Defensiveness often indicates a lack of self-acceptance. The stories we tell ourselves can significantly impact our emotional responses. Creating psychological safety in teams requires self-awareness and vulnerability. High achievers often fear that self-acceptance will lead to complacency. Compassion for others often reflects our level of self-acceptance. Experiential learning and reflection are key to personal growth. Chapters | 00:00 Introduction to Dr. Laura Gallaher 06:53 Self-Awareness and Personal Growth 18:00 The Missing Links: Company Culture 29:08 The Impact of Childhood Experiences on Self-Perception 34:59 Understanding and Reframing Personal Narratives 40:38 Defensiveness and Self-Acceptance in Relationships 46:06 Rapid Fire Insights and Personal Reflections Guest Bio | Dr. Laura is a professional speaker and organizational psychologist who inspires driven self-starters to transform their relationship with themselves to accomplish more than ever while making everything easier! While sharing revelations on radical self-acceptance she uniquely leverages humor to resonate with audiences. She is an approachable, funny, warm, alluring, optimistic, curious and delightful speaker and guest! Even as a USA Today and Wall Street Journal Best-selling author, Dr. Laura doesn't fit the typical "academic" personality of her PhD peers. Some of her noteworthy achievements include being hired by NASA to transform culture following the Columbia accident, working with Disney to lead radical shifts in performance management for their leaders, and inspiring Yahoo’s global teams to seek transformation from the inside-out. Fun is always abounding in Dr. Laura’s life; so when she’s not serving a mass self-acceptance movement you can find her water skiing, floating in a sunny pool (likely on a large peacock floatie), playing with her dogs, Grace (a papillon) and Jackson (a morkie), singing while playing her beautiful grand piano, or diving deeper into her own consciousness to live life most fully.

"Growth is not linear.” ”Focus more on who you're being and less on what you're doing.” “We're all human beings. One is not better than another.” “Accept where you are when you’re there.” Chapters: 00:00 Introduction to Abby Haverman 01:30 Abby's Early Life and Background 03:05 Transformation Through Adversity 07:15 Awakening to Self-Worth 09:36 Understanding the Mind and Identity 13:51 Practices for Present Moment Awareness 18:06 Breaking Free from Past Loops 22:28 Identifying and Embracing Personality Parts 26:04 The Journey Towards Generosity 30:48 The Power of Service in Overcoming Stress 36:19 Awareness and Self-Compassion 41:18 Understanding Perfectionism and Fear 45:05 The Journey of Self-Discovery and Acceptance 48:06 Rapid Fire Insights and Personal Reflections Episode Summary: In this conversation, Shannon Cassidy interviews Abby Havermann, a seasoned psychotherapist and speaker, who shares her journey of transformation from a life of external validation to one of self-acceptance and purpose. Abby discusses her early life, the pivotal moments that led to her awakening, and the importance of understanding the mind's role in shaping our identity. She emphasizes the significance of being present, breaking free from past loops, and embracing the various parts of our personality. The conversation culminates in a discussion about the true nature of generosity and how to navigate the complexities of human experience with compassion and awareness. In this conversation, Abby Havermann and Shannon Cassidy explore the themes of stress relief through service, the importance of self-awareness and self-compassion, the roots of perfectionism, and the journey of self-discovery.
