Plucking Up with Liz Bohannon – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Here we are! The Season Finale is here! Wow what a journey of amazing, thought-provoking and truly emotional conversations from a diverse bunch of influential guests.

For our finale, I have with me Tom Turcich, the tenth person to walk around the world. That's right! Tom walked to six continents, 38 countries for seven years. He chronicled the journey in his book, The World Walk.

We talked about the funny and pluck-ups on this life-changing journey and what inspired him. But more importantly, we spoke up about his challenges after he returned to a life of normalcy - when we get a reality check!

Check out this very inspiring story. And stay tuned for more from the Plucking Up podcast as we prepare a new season soon!

Hey Pluckies! I couldn't have asked for a more insightful and introspective guest, as we near the end of this season.

Adrienne Maree Brown is a New York Times-bestselling author and activist. Adrienne talked to me about the mindsets we need to embrace to truly connect and navigate our relationships with our loved ones and society.

This is one of my favorite topics and we really get into the nitty-gritty of it all. Check out Adrienne's latest book, Loving Corrections.

From film school to law school and the nonprofit world, Jedidiah Jenkins is now more known as the New York Times best-selling author of “To Shake The Sleeping Self” and the recently released book “Like Streams to the Ocean.”

I wish it had taken place around a campfire because it really just felt like the best chat with a kindred spirit and old friend. This episode covers A LOT, but I think you will be really encouraged and inspired by this beautiful life Jed has built -- despite lots of twists and turns along the way. We talk about being the children of divorce, of what happens when you have a big dream and go out and FAIL, and how it feels to wrestle through identity, work, and faith. Jed is thoughtful, curious, tender, hopeful, and hilarious and you’re all going to want to be his friend and buy his books when we are done here.

In today’s episode, we’ll be talking a lot about shifting mindsets, which may sound very abstract and quite ‘self-helpy’ but it actually isn’t. Whether you’re at an early or later stage in your career or you just started your own business, there is a lot of value in looking at things differently. Our next guest, whose mantra is ‘make it happen’, really did -- but not without pluck ups along the way!

Heidi Zak is the co-founder and CEO of ThirdLove, a company that was built to do bras differently. Heidi has been named among Fortune’s 40 Under 40 and her brand has made a mark in the retail and fashion world due to its commitment to inclusivity.

On the show, we’ll talk about Heidi’s mom’s reaction to quitting her very secure job at Google, which can be summed up as “You’re leaving the best company in the world and do what with bras?” We’ll dive into our mutual experience of working with our significant others. And Heidi will share a huge pluck up, which involved half of her team at ThirdLove quitting and how she moved on from that moment of despair.

Nona Jones is an incredibly accomplished leader at the intersection of faith and technology. She was appointed to her first executive role at only 23-years-old with a Fortune 100 company. She’s an author of the book "Success from the Inside Out," a speaker, and an entrepreneur who’s worked for companies like Facebook and many of the world’s most influential faith leaders. But in this episode, we will talk about Nona’s profoundly traumatic childhood, from being sexually abused in her own home to her attempts at her own life at the ages of 9 and 11. We also go deep into the topic of humility and why Nona believes her story makes her “a statistically improbable product of grace.”

Academy Award winner and #1 New York Times best-selling author Matthew McConaughey has had a wildly successful career — but it’s also rife with pluck ups! Matthew is best known for his roles in films like Dazed and Confused, A Time to Kill, and Dallas Buyers Club for which he won an Oscar. He recently added author to his long list of titles, after releasing his memoir, Green Lights.

In this episode, we dive into Matthew’s life with a 360 lens. We talk about parenting, from how he was raised to how he’s raising his own children and his learning journey as an actor, how we went from complacency and shame to getting roles of a lifetime. There’s a lot of uniquely introspective wisdom about failure, guilt, and embarrassment that we talk about, as well as visceral experiences Matthew shared in our conversation that I’m just dying for you all to simmer in!

On International Women’s Day, we are featuring the brilliant and award-winning journalist and producer, Noor Tagouri. Her documentary and subsequent podcast series, Sold in America: Inside Our Nation’s Sex Trade received a 2019 Gracies award for Best Investigative Series. She’s amassed a  community of over two million social media followers while garnering international praise as one of new media’s most influential voices.

Being born to immigrant parents from Libya, Noor talks to me about how her ethnicity and how she felt so unsure about who she was in a sea of kids who didn’t look like her. Apart from Noor’s background, what’s so interesting about the conversation you’re about to hear is how Noor has always been a journalist, from the moment she could speak. In this episode, we dive into so much, from empathy, shame, misrepresentation of Muslims in American media, to why modern-day activism begins with yourself and your home.

Susan McPherson is a profound, serial connector who has built longstanding relationships with the most influential leaders in social impact and CSR. She is the founder of McPherson Strategies, a communications consultancy focused on the intersection of brands and social impact, and the author of the upcoming book, “The Lost Art of Connecting” which will be released in March 2021.

I’m excited for you to hear my conversation with Susan. Her message around life being about detours and not the destination is crystal clear. In this episode, she talks about finding the silver lining in a tragic event that she experienced in her 20s and years later, not having a paycheck at age 48. If you’re in the social impact space or work in corporate social responsibility, you might particularly love hearing from Susan because she is a force and leading voice in the sector.
