Rise From The Ashes

Shaping a Legacy of Resilience and Innovation with Meira Spivek

Baz Porter®

Imagine embarking on a journey where you transform life's toughest challenges into your greatest opportunities. That's exactly what Meira Spivek, our esteemed guest, has mastered through her inspiring work in the non-profit sector and as a consultant helping people set and exceed their loftiest objectives. She imparts valuable lessons on innovation and the pivotal role of choice in overcoming adversity, all while sharing how her own narrative has been shaped by unexpected role shifts and her keen business acumen. This episode is your personal invitation to discover how to reframe obstacles as launchpads for growth.

Books can be windows to new worlds, and sometimes, the right words at the right time can steer the course of our lives. Meira and I discuss the profound influence that thought leaders like Amy Edmondson and the Heath brothers have had on us, serving as virtual mentors on our individual paths. As we navigate the balance between professional fervor and personal contentment, we unpack the essence of OKR (Objectives and Key Results) and how it's far more than a mere goal-setting framework—it's a transformational journey. Whether you're an aspiring writer or a dreamer with a penchant for travel, you'll find kernels of wisdom here to fuel your aspirations.

Leadership isn't just about the title—it's about the impact you leave on every life you touch. Closing our discussion, we delve into stories of seemingly small decisions that blossomed into opportunities beyond our wildest expectations. From turning a worthlessly broken chair into something precious to hiring team members whose hidden talents flourished, these narratives will compel you to see the extraordinary in the ordinary. Meira and I invite you to embrace the call to action, to innovate, adapt, and begin wherever you are. Let this conversation spark your drive to live with purpose and leave an indelible mark on the world. Join us on the Rise from the Ashes podcast, and let's set the world ablaze with inspiration.
