Hello and welcome to our final episode for Qtr. 3 of 2025. It’s recap time where I’m in the host’s seat alone, ready to navigate solo across the world reconnecting one last time with our gracious guests.

By now you should be familiar with the approach – we chunk our episodes into 4 groups – i.e. clusters of 3 guests. This quarter however we have a baker’s dozen for you – meaning 13 guests and therefore our last group will host 4 guests

And thanks as always to the brilliance of our marketing team we’re able to incorporate each of the promotional intros to save you listening to my wonderfully crafted radio friendly voice the entire time.

So here we go with our first three guests from quarter 3.

• Therese Miclot
• Charles Newcomb
• Julie Holunga

An incredible trio who got us underway in July 2025.

Let’s take a trip back to the beginning and episode 171. 

This chat took us to Indianapolis, to chat with our guest, Leadership and Facilitation consultant, Therese Miclot.

For the past two decades, Therese has helped people and organizations succeed by developing individuals into competent and compassionate leaders.

Having been drawn to the intersection between business and psychology, Therese discovered her calling at age 15 when she came across career pamphlets while working at a library. Her interests crystallized further when she witnessed her single-parent mom work at jobs with bad supervisors. It affected not only her and those she loved, but it motivated Therese to break the cycle by committing to a career of developing effective, supportive bosses in service of those with less power.

Flash forward to today. As a leadership development consultant, Therese is sharing her passions for leading and facilitating through 1:1 coaching, workshop development and delivery, keynote speaking, and a recently released book that she co-authored titled, The Facilitator Advantage: How to Drive Impact, Build Relationships and Lead with Influence.

Take a listen to intro to learn more and then re-watch the entire video for a full recap.
