⚡Hope #566⚡

I didn't buy many souvenirs during our trip to the Virgin Islands, but this bracelet came home with me.

It simply says: Hope #566

At first, I thought it was a cool bracelet. But I knew there had to be more to the story, so I got curious and asked the woman selling them to share the bracelet's story with me. And I was sold.

Since 2007, the team at My Brother's Workshop (MBW) has been helping at-risk youth in the Virgin Islands rise above their circumstances by providing hope, healing, purpose, and opportunity. https://mybrothersworkshop.org/

Each word on these bracelets represents a real student whose life has been impacted by the program.

Mine represents Jamoi, Student #566, whose word is Hope.

I don't know Jamoi's story.
But I know the power of hope.

Hope is often the spark that helps us believe a better future is possible.

A simple bracelet and a powerful reminder. And proof that sometimes the best thing you bring home from a trip isn't a souvenir.

It's a story. And I LOVE the story of this nonprofit.❤️

☀️🌴A week in St. Thomas with family was exactly what I needed.

Somewhere between the sunshine, the ocean views, and embracing a little "island time," I was reminded of something I teach in my coaching:

It's okay to slow down. To unplug. To be present. To simply enjoy the moment. In fact, it's required.

We spend so much of our lives focused on what's next that we forget to appreciate what's right in front of us. It was time to practice what I preach!

Grateful for the reset, the perspective, and the time together. 🌴❤️

📣 Next week, I'll be heading to the SHRM Annual Conference & Expo in Orlando, where I'll join thousands of HR professionals, leaders, speakers, and industry experts from around the world.

This year, I'm attending with a different goal.
I won't be speaking. I'll be learning.

I'll be studying some of the best speakers in the business, exploring the latest workplace trends, and most importantly, connecting with great people who are passionate about leadership, culture, and helping people thrive at work.

If you're attending, keep an eye out for me. I'll likely be wearing my "I ❤️ HR" t-shirt and carrying a stack of I ❤️ HR stickers to give away. 😄

If you spot the shirt, come say hello.

I'm looking forward to making new connections, having great conversations, and bringing back fresh ideas, insights, and inspiration.

⚡See you in Orlando! ⚡

⚡What happens when you walk away from a successful career, battle cancer, and decide to bet on yourself?

In this upcoming episode of The BOLT Podcast, I sit down with Jason A. Zygadlo, author of Built Not Born, founder of Build Your Own Brand, and someone who knows a thing or two about standing out in a crowded world.

🤜 Jason shares his incredible journey from nearly two decades in medical device sales to building a business centered around helping people break out of the "sea of sameness" and become unforgettable.

⚡Leadership is care. Everything else builds from there.⚡
That simple statement from my latest guest, Andre Young, perfectly captures what great leadership is all about. 📣 New episode dropped today: https://bit.ly/3QiW7JG

In this new episode of The BOLT Podcast, Andre shares lessons from his journey as a mental health therapist, leadership trainer, author, and entrepreneur. We dive into why so many leaders struggle, how burnout can become a catalyst for growth, and why work-life harmony matters more than work-life balance.

💪 A few powerful takeaways:
• Most leaders are promoted before they're taught how to lead
• Difficult conversations become easier when trust comes first
• Being busy doesn't mean you're getting better
• What you consume each morning shapes your mindset
• The best leaders make time for intentional self-reflection

If you're a leader, manager, business owner, parent, or simply someone committed to personal growth, this conversation is filled with practical wisdom you can apply immediately.

https://www.toddbertsch.com/

After a year and a half of focusing on my transition to keynote speaker and mental fitness coach, it was time for my website to evolve as well.

This refresh brings greater clarity to who I am, what I do, and the impact I'm committed to creating.

You'll find:
↳My signature keynote presentations focused on change, curiosity, and mental fitness

↳The SPARK Framework, my roadmap for navigating change, unlocking growth, and creating lasting impact

↳The Spark Quotient (SQ) Assessment, designed to help individuals better understand their capacity for growth and transformation

This isn't just a website update. It's a reflection of my journey, my purpose, and the work I'm most passionate about today.

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported, challenged, encouraged, and believed in me along the way.

"If you change the nature and quality of the conversations in your team, your outcomes will improve exponentially. Psychological safety is the core component to unlock this."

This powerful insight comes from Amy Edmondson's book, The Fearless Organization, and it has become one of the foundational pillars of research for the IMPACT component of my SPARK Framework.

The best teams aren't afraid to speak up, challenge ideas, ask questions, and learn from mistakes.

🤜 That's the power of psychological safety.
Change the conversation. Change the outcome.
