  • WHO’S in YOUR CORNER? UNCORKED with MANDY BUJOLD
    Apr 30 2025

    Are you ready to discover who’s truly in your corner?

    In this episode of the UNCOMMODiFiED podcast, Tim Windsor goes one-on-one with Olympic boxer, community builder, and all-around badass Mandy Bujold. They unpack the beauty of boxing—not just the sport, but the metaphor it offers for life. This conversation jabs at the illusion of independence and lands solid punches on the myth of solo success. Mandy shares why the fiercest fights aren’t always in the ring and how true community shows up when the spotlight turns off and the arena goes silent. If you think life is an individual sport, this episode will swing hard enough to shake your beliefs.

    Listen and you’ll hear about Mandy’s legal battle against the IOC to defend the rights of pregnant athletes, how she shifted from punching for gold to punching for good, and why she’s now helping Community and Business Leaders step into the ring—for charity. You’ll walk away challenged to ask: Who’s in your corner? And who are you in the corner for? Whether you're a leader, a parent, or just someone trying to fight the good fight, Mandy’s story will make you rethink what true strength—and community—really looks like.

  • Generational Translation: UNCORKED with CHARLOTTE BERRY
    Apr 22 2025

    Have you ever mistaken generational resistance for rebellion?

    In this UNCORKED conversation, Tim Windsor sits down with Charlotte Berry, an expert in workplace communication, to unpack the urgent need for generational translation in life and business. This conversation provocatively challenges listeners to confront their biases, asking, "If communication is connection, how often have you accidentally disconnected people because you refused to translate?" Throughout the conversation, Charlotte illuminates why today's leaders need sharper ears more than louder voices, emphasizing that understanding and bridging generational gaps isn't optional—it's essential.

    Through compelling real-life anecdotes and sharp insights, Tim and Charlotte reveal how misinterpreting generational behaviours can cost organizations dearly, from losing talent to damaging productivity. They discuss practical strategies for effectively translating across generations, highlighting why the most successful teams aren't just cross-functional but cross-generational. Whether it's learning from subtle cultural cues or understanding that a simple text might not signal disrespect, this conversation offers critical insights for anyone aiming to communicate clearly and effectively across generational divides.

  • DON'T CHASE Lightning — CREATE the STORM
    Apr 7 2025

    In this electrifying episode of the UNCOMMODiFiED Podcast, Tim Windsor flips the script on success. Instead of obsessing over results—the "lightning"—he challenges us to focus on building the storm: the culture, conditions, and climate that make impact inevitable. Using powerful metaphors, neuroscience, and research, Tim reveals how chasing outcomes can backfire by triggering stress responses while cultivating the right conditions to fuel creativity, grit, and innovation.

    Listeners will discover how to:
    Foster environments that spark personal and professional success.
    Create "collision zones" that welcome dissent.
    Audit inner circles for energy.
    Establish "Conditions Audits" that prioritize inputs over outputs.

    This episode isn't about inspiration that fizzles out; it's about creating sustained atmospheric pressure that makes success unavoidable. Be ready to stop waiting for flashes of brilliance—and start fueling the storm.

  • PROBLEMS worth FIXING: UNCORKED with SANDY RICHARDSON
    Mar 28 2025

    If you’ve ever felt like meaningless battles are draining your energy or you’re searching for a problem worth fixing, this is your wake-up call.

    Not every problem is worth fixing. In a world obsessed with solutions, we spend too much time patching cracks while the foundations beneath us crumble. In this UNCORK conversation with the questioner, innovator, disruptor, creator, and artist Sandy Richardson, we shatter the illusion that all problems deserve our sweat, grit, and relentless effort. We challenge the notion that simply because something annoys us, it requires our attention. Together, we explore a deeper truth—some problems are symptoms, not root causes. Others merely function as distractions, keeping us too busy to address what truly needs fixing. So, how do we determine which problems are genuinely worthy of our time? And how do we resist the tempting trap of solving the wrong ones?

    This episode isn’t just talk—it’s a call to action in which we unpack how to diagnose real problems, avoid the trap of symptom soothing, and embrace the messy, meaningful work of fixing what truly matters. Additionally, we dive into the widening gaps in business, society, and even our lives, questioning whether we’re being lulled into passivity by problems we assume are too big to fix.

    Buckle up, listen in, and ask yourself: What problem are you solving? And is it the one that deserves your time?

  • CHARISMA: the Gift of Energetic Grace
    Mar 14 2025

    Think you know grace? Think again. In this episode of the UNCOMMODiFiED podcast, Tim Windsor flips the script on grace, stripping away its soft and squishy connotations and revealing it for what it truly is—a raw, untamed power that transforms everything it touches. Grace isn’t a free pass or a sign of weakness; it’s fire. It’s grit. It’s the kind of force that doesn’t just build bridges but blasts through walls of fear, defensiveness, and shame.

    Drawing inspiration from the story of civil rights leader Dorothy Height and backed by neuroscience, Tim delves into why charisma and grace are more than just feel-good concepts. They are catalysts that propel us from survival mode into a space where creativity, problem-solving, and authentic connection thrive. He doesn’t hold back—he challenges you to extend grace not just to others but to yourself, and shows you how to wield it as a tool for growth, not an excuse for mediocrity.

    But this episode isn’t just about theory and inspiration—it’s filled with actionable takeaways. You’ll discover how to reframe mistakes, leverage vulnerability as a leadership superpower, and transform charisma from a manipulative tactic into a servant-driven force for good. Prepare to shift your mindset, elevate your influence, and become graciously charismatic.

    Listen now and unlock the charisma and energetic grace that can transform your life and the world.

  • Intelligent & Wise: UNCORKED with NIK KRPAN
    Feb 26 2025

    We’re racing toward an AI-driven future at breakneck speed. Smarter. Faster. More efficient. But here’s the real question: Are we truly getting smarter, or are we merely outsourcing our intelligence, allowing our own wisdom to atrophy like an unused muscle?

    In this UNCORKED conversation, Tim Windsor sits down with Nik Krpan—engineer, business leader, and deep thinker—to explore the interplay between ancient wisdom, modern intelligence, and the superintelligence that’s hunting us down.

    Listen in as we explore:

    Why ancient wisdom has outlasted empires, and why we’re so quick to discard it. The deadly trap of relying on intelligence without wisdom—and how history proves it’s a disaster. Why leadership without gratitude, humility, and rest isn’t true leadership—it’s a ticking time bomb. And this uncomfortable truth: You might be getting “smarter” but less wise along the way.

    This conversation is a full-throttle assault on the mindless rush toward “progress” without a moral compass. If we don’t put wisdom on the rails now, we may be about to be derailed and find ourselves profoundly off track.

    Pour a glass of port (or a cup of dandelion tea, like Nik did) and tune in. In a world obsessed with intelligence, wisdom might just be what saves us all.
