Life isn't easy. But in the midst of difficult situations, there's always an easier way. A way for you to show up that makes the tough times not so tough. From launching a business, to navigating your relationships, to being a better human being, remember: easier always exists. And this podcast will help you to find it. For your career, your company, your ideas and your family - how you show up is what creates the world around you. Learn from experts and innovators who have created the impossible - and you'll hear stories of humanity, resilience and resourcefulness. That resourcefulness is something that you possess as well - and when you access it, everything (and that means everything) can get easier. And maybe - just maybe - you'll discover how to be a little kinder to yourself in the process. Because that's what Finding Easier is all about: accessing new insights, new confidence, and just a little bit of kindness, even when life isn't easy.
We all understand the concept of "leadership" - but how do we turn that understanding into actionable results? Joining me on this episode of Finding Easier are Steve Chandler and Will Keiper, co-authors of "The Leader and the Coach". This innovative book shares practical leadership guidance from someone who has spent his career in the C-Suite, leading public and private companies. That's Will Keiper, who fills the role of the "leader" in the book. Steve Chandler is widely regarded as the "godfather of coaching", with over 35 books to his credit. He's the founder of the Coaching Prosperity School, now known as Advanced Coaching Systems or ACS. Chandler's books, as author or co-author, include "Time Warrior", "The Prosperous Coach", "Crazy Good" and "Reinventing Yourself".
Together, the Leader and the Coach share insights into what leadership really means - and how leaders (and coaches) have to tap into their humanity, if they really want to create powerful results.
In this interview, Steve Chandler shares insights into the importance of listening - with real-world examples of how to apply advanced coaching concepts. And Will Keiper gets candid and frank about the loneliness and self-doubt that can exist at the top. The insights come from two men who have walked the talk. They share their guidance from a place of service, as they dive into what leadership really means - on this episode of Finding Easier.

The ultimate expression of creativity in business is entrepreneurship. And serial entrepreneur, Mark Bowles, knows a thing or two about creating successful businesses. Mark is an eight-time venture backed business founder, who owns over 100 patents for his innovative ideas.
In 2013, Mark sold his company, ecoATM, to investors - for $350 million. It was the largest exit in San Diego history at the time, for a non-healthcare business. But Mark's journey hasn't been all sunshine, peppermints and paydays.
His original business ideas failed. And he had to learn how to bounce back - how to create again, even after losing over $750 million of his investors' money! How could he come back? How could he ask investors to join him again? How could he recover?
Turns out, resilience is something we can all access - and Mark Bowles will show you how, on this episode of Finding Easier
