E23 | The Privilege We’re Forgetting: Voting

In this powerful episode, Martin Rust dives into the true value of voting—something many take for granted in countries with long-standing democracies. Drawing from his experiences in nations where democratic elections are new, hard-won, and deeply cherished, Martin reminds us just how fortunate we are to have the right to vote. He shares stories from the ground—where casting a ballot is seen as an honour, not a chore—and makes a compelling case for why every single vote matters. If you’ve ever questioned the impact of your vote, this conversation will reignite your sense of civic duty and gratitude for living in a free society.

E22 | Is This Really the "Scariest Times of Our Lives?"

Everywhere you turn, someone is saying it: "These are the worst times of our lives." But is that really true? Or are we just seeing the world through a distorted lens? In this episode, Martin Rust breaks down why so many people feel this way, what’s fueling this mindset, and how we can shift our perspective to navigate uncertainty with clarity and confidence. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that will challenge the way you see the world.

E17 | Managing your business through the noise

Politics, global disruption, supply chain issues, what are the things that affect decision-making?

E16 | Strategic Advisors. Are they worth the investment?

Employee unsettlement running rampant, feeling the need for change, C-Suite turnover... As a result, we are constantly seeing 'new plans' coming and going - in other words, throwing something against the wall and hoping it sticks. Guess what? There is a better approach - a strategic advisor.

E15 | The lies of polarization

As a leader, you need to understand who your customer is. The soundbites from the media and legacy politicians are WRONG. Those are not the issues people actually care about; for example, climate change. The real things that matter are kitchen table issues and pocketbook issues. All of these other wedge issues people push out are just plain wrong, while the real issues are still left unresolved.

E14 | Next level thinking: It's just good decision making

Events around the world are just affecting us in a far more direct way. Unfortunately, we happily ignore what is happening as we live here in Canada. There are instances of foreign operatives operating in Canada with boots on the ground. Hiding our heads in the sand is now no longer an option. Your business is not insulated anymore, it's time to step up your game. The impact for your business trying to keep customers, involve and expand is another type of threat you didn't have to face before; for example supply chains are affected and some are now on the wrong side of 'the line' that businesses can't cross.
