In part 3 of our 3 part series, I am excited to have Stephanie and Maren, hosts of The Soulful Leader Podcast, and my friend Dana, owner of The Mindful Trucker, join me on the podcast!

Shifting the focus in transportation is a series that will consist of a deep dive into what is culture, within an organization, and how people play a crucial role in the living (or dying) culture within an organization.

During our conversation today, we dive into how the Soulful Leader Podcast and The Mindful Trucker is creating an incredible impact in organizations, and directly on their people, with the Wealth Dynamics systems and tools.

Furthermore, Stephanie, Maren, and Dana will educate and empower us to consider how important culture and people are, when organizations are looking to recruit and retain professionals, by ensuring their people are working within their zone of excellence.

Part 3 of our series is all about understanding stress, and how to manage stress appropriately. Collectively, Dana, Stephanie, and Maren communicate how we can choose to look at stress differently, and instead view it as excitement and an opportunity to get out of our comfort zones and grow!

Specifically, we discuss how they are collectively impacting some of the major issues trucking companies are experiencing today within their organizations: culture, mental wellness, recruiting & retention.

I encourage you to listen to episode #119 and #130 which is Part 1 and 2 of the 3 Part series.

Listen to Episode #119 Now!

Listen to Episode #130 Now!

Stephanie and Maren, founders and hosts of The Soulful Leader Podcast, is educating and empowering professionals to know that there is meaning in your life.

Instead of sticking to the status quo, they are helping people embrace their new way of being, thinking, feeling, and doing!

As a soulful leader you want your success to mean something!
