  • Shawn Lemon on Digital Organization: Find What You Need in Seconds
    Shawn Lemon is the founder of The Digital Organizer, where he helps individuals and teams eliminate friction and chaos in their digital workflows. In this episode, we go deep into digital file systems, tool audits, naming conventions, AI clutter, and the underestimated cost of daily digital disorganization.This isn’t about color-coding your folders for fun—it’s about recovering your focus, time, and mental energy by organizing your digital life on purpose.In this episode, we cover:What Digital Organization Actually Means: It’s not about perfection—it’s about finding what you need in seconds, not minutes.The Core Four Systems: Files, email, passwords, and communication tools. Nail these, and everything else falls into place.Solo Business vs. Teams: Why even solo entrepreneurs create hidden chaos—and how to stop duplicating effort across tools.Avoiding the Frankenstein Stack: How tool sprawl (Google Docs + Dropbox + Box + iCloud…) is draining your time and brainpower.The Pitfalls of AI-Generated Clutter: As creation gets easier, organizing what you make becomes more important than ever.How to Tame GPT Projects and Prompts: Why you need a training folder, naming conventions, and even visual breadcrumbs for your GPT knowledge base.Digital Hoarding is Real: Most businesses only use 5% of their files regularly—find that 5% and prioritize from there.The Real Cost of Disorganization: How wasted time and duplicated work affects your bottom line—and what to do about it.How to Make Digital Organization a Project (Not a Forever Problem): Treat this like a sprint, not a slow drip. Get in, get organized, and get back to work.Focus Over Friction: Why triaging your tools, tasks, and systems one at a time is the fastest way to reclaim productivity.Whether you’re a solopreneur juggling too many tools or a leader managing team chaos, Shawn’s approach can save you hours a week—and a ton of mental load.Start with his quiz at thedigitalorganizer.com/beyond to find your digital organization score and get free access to his file organization guide and resource library.Connect with Erik:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Threads⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠This Podcast is Powered By:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Descript⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Descript 101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Castmagic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ecamm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podpage⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rodecaster Pro⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Top Productivity Books List⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Make sure to grab Shortcasts from Beyond The To-Do List by Blinkist.

  • Harry Cohen on Positive Leadership & Energy Management
    In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Harry Cohen, a leadership consultant and author of Be the Sun, Not the Salt. In this uplifting conversation, Harry unpacks how small moments of positive energy can have massive ripple effects—and how each of us can show up as a force for good in our relationships, teams, and communities.In this episode, we explore:The Heliotropic Effect in Human Behavior: Just like plants gravitate toward sunlight, people naturally respond to warmth, encouragement, and positivity.How to Be the Sun: Harry shares practical ways to radiate positivity—through micro-moments of kindness, presence, and energy that elevate others.Avoiding the Salt: We discuss how sarcasm, negativity, and small acts of dismissiveness (a.k.a. “salt”) can quickly erode connection and morale.Leadership and Character: Whether in the workplace or at home, being the sun is about leading with integrity, empathy, and consistent warmth—not force or charisma.Training Your Impact: Harry explains how being the sun is a skill that can be developed with intention, awareness, and repetition.This conversation is a heartfelt and practical reminder that you don’t have to change the world to make a difference—you just have to change how you show up in it.Learn more about Harry’s work at drharrycohen.com, and get the book Be the Sun, Not the Salt wherever books are sold.Connect with Erik:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Threads⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠This Podcast is Powered By:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Descript⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Descript 101⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Castmagic⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Ecamm⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Podpage⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Rodecaster Pro⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Top Productivity Books List⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Make sure to grab Shortcasts from Beyond The To-Do List by Blinkist.

  • Alan Gannett on Unlocking Everyday Creativity for Greater Productivity (Shortcast)
    In this Shortcast edition, Alan Gannett, author of The Creative Curve, demystifies the myth that creativity is an inborn talent. Instead, he lays out how great ideas emerge at the intersection of familiarity and novelty—and how anyone can train themselves to consistently produce creative work.The Creativity Curve Explained: Alan introduces the “creative curve”—the balance between what’s familiar and what’s new—and how it influences what ideas catch on.Exposure Breeds Creativity: Why intentional, repeated exposure to relevant content is one of the strongest predictors of creative output.Practice Over Prodigy: Alan emphasizes that behind every creative genius is a structure of routines, research, and iteration.Why Your Idea Might Flop: He explains how being too far ahead of the market—or too derivative—can tank even the best ideas, and how to find the sweet spot.Learnable Creativity: Alan provides hope for all of us: creativity is a skill, not a gift. And like any skill, it improves with deliberate practice and the right strategy.Find more ⁠Shortcasts like this one on Blinkist here⁠.
