The Work Nobody Sees, Bridges, Authentic Leadership and Adapting to the Litter Box

The Work Nobody Sees, Bridges, #Authentic Leadership and Adapting to the Litter Box, in our #Podcast discussions from this last week!

** Jamming with Jason: E379 Crossing the Bridge and Initiations

https://jasonmefford.com/jammingwithjason379/

Sometime you have to cross bridges on the spiritual path, and they are usually the crumbling or death defying rope bridges like you see in Lord of the Rings or Indiana Jones movies. In this episode we discuss crossing bridges, initiations into higher levels of being and states of consciousness, and how these relate to the concept of shamanic death.

When the balrog fights you in Moria and you face your greatest fear, when there doesn't even appear to be a bridge, what do you do? This and so much more in this episode.

** Fire and Earth Podcast: E291 Adapting to the Litter Box

https://jasonmefford.com/fireandearth291/

Why do we resist change? Why don't we adapt as quickly as animals? In this episode we share stories to make a point and see how we can start adapting quickly, and see those opportunities when we need to adapt as the happy times when we are actually learning and growing. With the right perspective you will start to embrace the need to adapt and learn how to do faster and faster.

** Walking A Spiritual Path: Ep-75 The Work Nobody Sees

https://jasonmefford.com/walkingaspiritualpath75/

The most important work you can do is actually the work nobody sees you do. They may see the effect after time, but they don't see your commitment and discipline in the little things you do each day that have such a big impact. In this episode we discuss some little things we do, share some stories, and explain more about how to integrate experiences.

In this audit discussion I talk with Ursula Schmidt, PhD about her career, how she ended up leading internal audit and compliance in her organization and lessons she learned along the way about being herself, being easy to speak to, while still being herself.

Notable quotes:

"Being me and being honest has served me well."

"Authentic leadership is grounded in integrity"

"You have to know how far you are willing to bend."

"You can't fake it."

"What seemed like my biggest failure actually was one of the best things I did for my career."

Ursula Schmidt is a 2023 Internal Audit Beacon award recipient and former Executive Vice President Audit & Compliance. She is now an independent advisor and speaker about everything internal audit and compliance.
