Ep. 177 - Collaboration is Great Business (w. Dave & Dillon Mysliwiec)

By

Working with family can be a shot in the dark sometimes as even the closest relatives can become damaging business partners.

Fortunately, that was not the case for Dave & Dillon Mysliwiec, respectively CEO of The Upstate Sound & President of Upstate Management.

From what I've learned, if want to build a successful business, be it an impressive record label carving its own path in the industry or a growing music management empire, will most certainly take time, patience, sacrifice and a solid sense of dedication. But if you're lucky enough to count on your family as part of your close circle of collaborators - that's a precious bonus.

The palpable synergy and mutual respect that these two brothers shared during our exchange was surely only a glimpse of the tremendous bond between them: Dave being the infectiously energetic and fearless creative, and Dillon being the savvy & tactical Marketing expert, they're quite the dynamic duo.

One of the many takeaways I got from this epic conversation was that you must take great care to ensure the mission is on everybody's mind and that we're all rowing in the same direction despite our various roles.

Smart, energetic and with an exemplary sense of collaboration, Dave & Dillon are only getting started.

An exciting and noteworthy episode, which I do hope you'll enjoy.

Ep. 181 - Live Your Best Life For You (w. Dionne Nicholls)

By

A third appearance on the show is certainly something to acknowledge and celebrate. When certain guests have been such a profound source of support and collaboration, you let them know.  It's a true honour to welcome back today's guest on the program.  Dionne Nicholls is a professional coach trained through Accomplishment Coaching. From being estranged from her father for years as he was diagnosed with schizophrenia, to giving birth to a son with a rare heart condition, to feeling stuck in a 20-year career and having her 17-year relationship end in betrayal, Dionne knows very well that she does not look like what she's been through. And, that's the point. After an extensive journey of self-reflection and seeking the meaning of why she was put on this planet starting in 2014, she came to the realization that the gift she had to bring to the party of life was JOY. Following a successful 20-year career in the fashion industry, co-founding

Ep. 012 - This journey called LOVE (w. Jessica Cantave)

In an active effort to pay attention and remain cautious of my workaholic tendencies, trying to take on as many projects as my mind  can wrangle, I've become increasingly curious about the concept of Mindfulness. More specifically through the practice of meditation and Yoga. It gets thrown around a lot and there more than a few resources to go around in regards to demystifying the whole thing and getting one's feet wet. I, however, never mind keeing things close to the chest, or in this case, in the family. Jessica Cantave has been an avid practitioner of Yoga for many years now and her dedication has yet to slow down. She was definitely a worthy source of both valuable and legitimate experience that I was more than happy to tap into with my always naive and curious self. An honest and heartfelt exchange, with a surprising exercise in Stillness directed at yours truly, Jessica's insight and enlightened being made this a conversation to remember. You c

Ep. 030 - Do not be anxious. Recalibrate. (w. Tanguy Exume)

When you come out the other end of yet another powerful and thought-provoking exchange - all you do is take a second, breathe it in and realize that certain opportunities, connections, conversations and people are truly a blessing. My guest, Tanguy Exume, was nothing short of an amazing spirit to have on the program. With a genuine philosophy of kindness, resilience, patience and mindfulness, there was no time for questions - only for listening. And sometimes, too often actually, we lose sight of how important this simple act can be. Wearing a variety of hats ranging from - and I'm not making these up - dedicated  Crossfit Athlete ,  to  Poet , to  published author , to  Teacher , to  Salsa Insctructor , to most notably and closest to my heart, loving husband and father...Tanguy is a singular expression of eclectic Awesomeness.
