The Rooftop Podcast

What metric do you use to measure your success in today’s modern world? Most people pursue some type of credit in exchange for work or impact produced. Our individual-focused society seems to demand it. In this time of division and disconnection, however, there is another metric that’s available to us in the form of credibility that packs a much larger punch and actually gets us to our goals in a far more meaningful way. This is some below-the-waterline stuff of the Human Operating System so pull up a chair and lean in for some best practices you likely won’t hear elsewhere. I’ll see you on the Rooftop! Scott Own Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/Nobody is Coming to Save You - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-streetLastoutplay.comScottmann.com Join Rooftop Nation! Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

Do you ever lie awake at night wondering if the success you have in your life is a bit hollow? Do you look at your pursuit of material things around status and perception and the time spent away from deeper things like family and friends, and wonder if you’ve lost your way? Do you feel like you’ve run a really effective race, but maybe you ran in the wrong direction? I mean you have the nice car, the cool clothes, the likes on IG, but damn…is this it?! What happens when we play the big game and win the big wins, only to learn that there is a whole lot more to life and we’re not quite sure how to get there? Well that’s what this Rooftop Episode is all about and it starts with the metrics of how you and I view success. Let’s get to it. I’ll see you on the Rooftop. Scott Own Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/Nobody is Coming to Save You - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-streetLastoutplay.comScottmann.com Join Rooftop Nation! Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

How do we get to our goals when life is kicking our a$$. How the hell do I come close to the outcomes so many of these other people are achieving. It seems impossible. Overwhelming. You can feel stuck. Believe it or not, the struggle that’s in between you and where you want to go is a biological necessity. There is necessity in struggle. Join me and find out how you can repurpose it into the energy you need to keep moving toward those goals that the rest of us are counting on you to deliver!I’ll see you on the Rooftop! Scott Own Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/Nobody is Coming to Save You - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-streetLastoutplay.comScottmann.com Join Rooftop Nation! Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

So many of us are trying to make an impact in this world. We feel a need to create something bigger than ourselves don’t we. We zone in on a book, a project, or a business and we start moving that pen or swinging the hammer with a level of energy and motivation that feels like rocket fuel. But, what do you do when the purpose fades? How do we keep going when the tank hits “E” and it feels like meaning has left us? Where did our Inspiration go and how do we get it back to complete on the big work that we’ve started. Well, I’ve been there too my friend and we’ll dig into that hard in this Rooftop Episode. I’ll see you on the other side. Scott Own Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/Nobody is coming to save you - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-streetLastoutplay.comScottmann.com Join Rooftop Nation! Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

What does a promise mean to you? What’s it cost to break it? Unfortunately, we’re seeing the answer to this question in epic proportions across all levels of civil society today, to include national security and community engagement. The question we’ll explore in this Rooftop Podcast Episode is, as leaders, parents, teachers, and citizens do we have what it takes to re-commit more deeply to the promises we make and restore the trust in the places where the promises have been broken? That’s our focus in this epsiode. And based on the things happening to the left and right of us, it’s overdue. Our communities, our families, our nations, and even our species might just depend on it. Pour a beverage and lean in.

Did we learn anything from 9-11-2001? More importantly, did we learn anything from the events leading up to 9-11-2001?For months, prior to the attacks, the leader of the Afghan Resistance Movement, Ahmad Shah Massoud tried over and over again to warn the U.S. and the West of an impending attack by al Qa’ida. His warnings were ignored as he continued his fight against them and the Taliban with almost no support from the U.S.Just days before the worst attack on our homeland, Massoud was killed by suicide bombers dispatched by bin Laden. AQ knew we would come to Massoud after the attack attempting to partner since we had no other allies in the country.After the botched Afghan Withdrawal, over 27 violent extremist organizations have flooded back into the country, training on the former Coalition Bases, under the tolerant protection of the Taliban, and in flagrant violation of the International Doha Agreement.Ahmad Massoud, the son of the Lion of the Panshir, continues the fight. For the first time he appears on a public broadcast with a U.S. elected official, Green Beret Congressman Mike Waltz. They are joined by the Afghan-American, former Army NCO - Legend - who has returned to Afghanistan multiple times to help evacuate at-risk Afghans and American Citizens.The topics in this podcast will blow your mind. What’s happening in that terrorist playground is beyond the pale.Will we learn from our past? Do we even care?

Have you been told that you need to focus on just one thing? What if there is more than one thing that lights you up? Which ones do you jettison? How do you know that “one thing” to focus on? What’s the metrics we apply to choose. I disagree with this approach. I believe we are in a Churn of disconnection that requires leaders with a full body of work. And when applied with intention and purpose, the convergence that results leads to metrics that are self-actualizing beyond our wildest dreams…and can help lead us into better days. Alright. Let’s get this party started. I’ll see you on the Rooftop! Scotts recommended links:Pamela Slim: Body of Work - https://a.co/d/8crLGesSteven Pressfield: War of Art - https://a.co/d/0lbkc76Daniel Coyle: The Little Book of Talent - https://a.co/d/dZ5s9WvOwn Every Room - https://rooftopleadership.com/owneveryroom/Nobody is coming to save you - https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/scott-mann/nobody-is-coming-to-save-you/9781546008286/?lens=center-streetLastoutplay.comScottmann.com  Join Rooftop Nation!  Website: https://www.rooftopleadership.com/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ScottMannAuthorInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/scottmannauthorLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/rooftop-leadershipTwitter: https://twitter.com/RooftopLeaderYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYOQ7CDJ6uSaGvmfxYC_skQ

How do we serve others through storytelling when the stories scare the hell out of us?!This is something I’ve wrestled with since I became a storyteller. The answer is, that we lean into it and realize that it’s not about us…it’s about the listener, even if we are the protagonist in the story. I’m so excited to share with you our 300th episode of the Rooftop Podcast and even more excited that this episode features Dr. Kate Pate and her amazing view on mental health and storytelling.
