JD's Journal podcast

My many guests and I have lifetimes of stories to share. Through each episode we bring our insights of leadership, professional development, overcoming challenges, and personal transformation. 

More than just a podcast—it’s a heartfelt tribute to the resilience of everyday heroes.

Every episode delivers a powerful blend of:

• Inspiring stories—from career transitions and trauma recovery to creative journeys and leadership breakthroughs.
• Authentic reflections drawn from real-life challenges and lessons learned over 47 years of full-time work and global experiences. 
• Practical insights you can apply immediately—from frameworks like the TKI for conflict styles to growth mindset strategies and storytelling excellence.

Whether it’s navigating career clarity, harnessing constructive conflict, or transforming self-doubt into strength, every episode leaves you with renewed perspective and actionable takeaways. 

Because JD’s Journal doesn’t just tell stories—it shares lived experience. Everyone we know has experienced their unique journey, learned important lessons and gathered valuable resources that have allowed us to survive and thrive.

This is your invitation to join the conversation, learn from real-life resilience, and discover tools you can use in your own journey.

I'm always on the lookout for heroes to spotlight on the podcast, new stories, fresh insights, and alternative perspectives. If you or someone you know has a story that you believe will benefit my listeners, please send me a message or go ahead and reserve a 30 minute slot for us to talk HERE.
