In this premiere episode of "The God Hook," host Carol Costello introduces the chilling story of Richard Beasley, infamously known as the Ohio Craigslist Killer. In previously unreleased jailhouse recordings, Beasley portrays himself as a devout Christian, concealing his manipulative and predatory behavior. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Beasley's deceitfulness extends beyond the victims he buried in shallow graves.

Welcome to Episode 312 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David Guerra, MA, MBA. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT’s eighth core component: TAKE THAT SECOND, THIRD, FOURTH, & EVERY STEP THEREAFTER . Every journey we undertake CANNOT begin without taking that first step. This is TRUE. However, completing that journey, achieving that goal, or completing the mission means taking EVERY step that needs to be taken. Never lose sight of the fact, that YOUR JOURNEY IS UNIQUELY YOURS . There is NO cookie-cutter approach to leading yourself and especially towards leading others. There is ONLY taking every single step that is necessary to complete the journey. Premature celebrations are not going to complete the journey. Actually completing the journey is a cause for celebration. It is also cause for starting a new journey and taking a new set of steps. Finding oneself incapable of completing the journey is NOT a reason to quit. It is a reason to regroup, recoup, and start over again. Take all the steps that are necessary. Remember, in your journey towards achieving SUCCESS there are NO SHORTCUTS . REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER. AND TO BE A LEADER WITHOUT EQUAL YOU MUST BREAK FROM THE CROWD!

Welcome to Episode 311 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David Guerra, MA, MBA. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT's seventh core component: WALK YOUR TALK! People will always talk a good game. Their words are laced with shoulda, coulda, woulda but lack actual substance. People will profess one thing while doing something completely opposite. That’s the old adage of “Do as I say, NOT as I do.” There is NO leadership with that kind of mindset, hell, there is NO kind of management. It is ALL about doing. Sadly, in a world full of people that are ALL SHOW & NO GO , everyone is the same. However, it is those individuals that ACTUALLY step into the arena, the ones that DO what they say they are going to do, that ARE Walking Their Talk. Those are the individuals that ARE succeeding in life, not just as a SELF-LEADER but as a LEADER of others. There is no time nor the place to those that almost did this or almost did that. There is NO success in almost. There is ONLY WALK YOUR TALK! REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER.

Welcome to Episode 310 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT sixth core component: DEAL WITH IT IMMEDIATELY! In a world where procrastination has become the standard it is easy to become reactive. For example, people hurt our feelings we swallow it instead of dealing with it right then and there. We keep the pain, anger, and frustration inside and unfortunately, we keep adding to it. Never letting it out because when we do, no matter what others have done to us, we fear becoming just like those that mistreat us. So when it comes to a head and it all comes out, the inevitable happens: The VICTIMIZER becomes the “ victim ” and where is the justice in that? There is no justice. In this episode, I talk about why it is important to be PROACTIVE and deal with issues and concerns IMMEDIATELY . By taking control of the situation and getting out in front of it, you bring the issue to rapid and just conclusion. You give yourself closure, ON YOUR OWN TERMS ! Success comes not from harboring anger and frustration. Success comes from keeping a positive mindset and addressing matters as they arise will always serve you as you move through your journey of self-leadership and success.

Welcome to Episode 309 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT’s fifth core component: OVERCOME YOUR OWN LIMITATIONS. Each and everyone of us has our own limits self-imposed limitations. Sometimes we know them and sometimes we do not know what they are until we are face-to-face with the moment that we have to decide what to do. Usually, those are limits are not really the limit that we are willing to go to and not one step beyond but instead we get into our own mind and talk ourselves out of doing what must be done. We determine it is easier to settle than to endure a little more pain, suffering, or slight discomfort and come out on the back end a better person. Success is derived from the challenges we overcome. Success only occurs when we go through the challenges and come out better than before. To do this, a non-negotiable MUST be dealt with. Move beyond and overcome your self-imposed limitations.. REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER.

Welcome to Episode 308 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the fourth part of the Walking Leader’s SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT: KEEPING THE NAYSAYERS & DETRACTORS MORE THAN ARM'S LENGTH AWAY. When it comes to your success there are three types of people that you want to be aware of; those that want you to succeed, those that do NOT want you to succeed and those that say they want you to succeed but actually want you to fail. The first two are easy to deal with. It is those in the third category that you have to watch out for. Keep those that are not on your side more than arm's length away that way they cannot do anything to derail you on your journey to success. As for those that say one thing but mean something totally different. It may not be easy to spot them but once spotted, keep them way out of your life. This reality may be difficult to accept but if you want to succeed, then you need to accept this as fact as quickly as possible. In the mean time, REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER.

Welcome to Episode 306 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT second component: MOTIVATION . You may have heard of the need to “go the distance” in order to achieve success. It is through “the reason or reasons one has for acting or behaving in a particular way” that makes things happen. The definition of MOTIVATION (see prev. sentence) working along with INSPIRATION ( epi. 305 ) are the driving force behind your ability to SELF-LEAD and eventually, LEAD OTHERS . Again, there are no short-cuts to this process. The reason you put your feet on the ground and get up everyday is uniquely yours. The reasons you lead yourself and will one day lead others is also uniquely yours. While everyone’s reason are different there is a commonality: MOTIVATION . MOTIVATION is also one of life’s NON-NEGOTIABLES . Listen to this episode as Dave talks about the who, what, where, when and why of MOTIVATION as part of your SELF-LEADERSHIP journey..

Welcome to Episode 305 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this week’s episode of the WALKING LEADER podcast, David shares with you the WALKING LEADER’S SELF-LEADERSHIP CORE OF EIGHT and the first of the eight is INSPIRATION . The journey towards SELF-LEADERSHIP and becoming a LEADER of others is long and arduous however it does not have to be. It does not have to be a difficult as long as you are INSPIRED to take on the challenges and tasks that lay ahead. In this episode, we take the first step in our SELF-LEADERSHIP journey as we talk about INSPIRATION and what it is, why it is important to become inspired and stay inspired. As a self-leader it is cannot be stressed enough; you must be inspired in order to get to where you want to go and to become. Without inspiration you will find yourself stuck in the muck and mud just spinning your wheels. It is through INSPIRATION that you will find yourself working yourself out of the shadows and into the light. GET INSPIRED. BE INSPIRED. STAY INSPIRED . In the mean time, REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER.

Welcome to Episode 289 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this episode, I share with you an article, from the Business Training Media website: “12 Effective Ways to Improve Your Workplace Communication Skills”. This article serves as a great opportunity to revisit the basics. Check which of the basics need a little extra attention and which need a complete overhaul. All of us, present and future leaders stand to benefit from periodically re-visiting the basics. It is what makes leaders better in that they know that they can never truly master any workplace skills but through honing these skills they can achieve near mastery. Additionally, it is expected of leaders to show others that it is perfectly acceptable to occasionally pause, reflect, adjust course, and then get back on track. As a leader, it is your responsibility to keep yourself sharp and ready. It is also your responsibility to encourage others to make the time to periodically check themselves. REMEMBER TO KEEP GOING BEYOND THE GRIND & KEEP GOING BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER. AND TO BE A LEADER WITHOUT EQUAL YOU MUST BREAK FROM THE CROWD!

Welcome to Episode 288 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In episode 288, David shares with you a great OP/ED article, from the Belleville News Democrat, that is quite appropriate for the times we are living in. As we are in election season, almost all conversations will turn to the upcoming elections and who will you be voting for. If you would rather keep your Political Opinions to yourself but those around you just cannot help themselves there are options you can take to help remedy the discourse that is sure to follow. The ability to not fall into the trap of a conversation rooted in Politics, Religion, and/or Medicine is one of those that you will learn over time. However, by setting the standard early, those around you might just avoid creating situations that could potentially harm or strain any relationship (personal or professional).

Welcome to Episode 287 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David G. Guerra. In this episode, I shares with you his observations and insights on an article from the Vanderbilt University Medical Center titled, "Embracing lifelong learning for a growth mindset: Leadership Assembly."

Welcome to Episode 286 of the Walking Leader Podcast with your host David Guerra, MA, MBA. In this episode, 286, David shares with you some tips and tools on ACTIONS & CONSEQUENCES. As a Leader, the sooner you understand and accept that for every ACTION you take there is a CONSEQUENCE. No one is immune to that fact. Consequences come in many shapes and sizes. When will the CONSEQUENCES occur? Only fate knows. No matter the reason, there is one thing that all true leaders must accept and that is to OWN YOUR ACTIONS AND YOUR CONSEQUENCES. Owning your actions and the inevitable consequences puts you head and shoulders above those that feel they are immune to consequences for their actions. The sooner any up and coming leader lives with the consequences of their actions (intentional or unintentional) the better leaders they become. They become better at leading because they hold themselves to a higher standard long before they try to think they can hold others to any standard. SO, GO BEYOND THE GRIND & GO BEYOND THE HUSTLE BECAUSE THAT IS THE ONLY WAY TO BE THE WALKING LEADER AND A LEADER THAT IS GREAT TO FOLLOW. TO BE THAT LEADER AND TO BE WITHOUT EQUAL YOU MUST BREAK FROM THE CROWD! I invite you to take about 10 minutes and listen to the Episode 286 of the Walking Leader Podcast . Enjoy!
