EXECUTIVE PODCAST CLUB

continued from page 069

WHAT I DO:

“I’m the founder of Outside CLO, a collection of former in-house counsel and C-Suite executives who help hyper-growth and middle-market technology companies scale.”

STYLE ICON:

“My husband, Michael Gulley. He was in the fashion industry for two decades, fronting campaigns for highfashion and high-street brands alike.”

ON THE JOB:

“Clothing and perception are linked. That’s why most lawyers will wear their best black suit to an important meeting or event. If you occasionally break the status quo, people notice and admire it. So, I might show up to dinner in my best black pantsuit, Metallica t-shirt, and red heels.”

FASHION INSPIRATION:

“I’m making a more conscious effort to shop local, shop small, shop sustainable, and shop quality over quantity. Our choices around what we wear have profound implications for our communities and planet.”

STYLE DEFINED:

“Some call my style ‘tomboy chic.’ My friend, Fancy, calls it ‘selfdeprecating.’ I call my style ‘give and take.’ Part of me likes tradition and history, hence a love of solids and neutrals. Part of me wants to break the rules.”

HOW I ACCESSORIZE:

“Cuffs, especially orn as a set. I’m sure it’s a phase, but for now, it’s Wakanda forever!”

GO-TO LOOK:

“A blend of new and vintage combined with ankle strap high heels or combat boots.”

FAVORITE STORES:

“When traveling, I always find a eiss because it has a non-frumpy petite line. In Dallas, you’ll find me t local shops like Favor the Kind, Reformation, Clotheshorse Anonymous—and raiding my friends’ closets.”

MUST-LISTEN

Area executives tell us the one podcast they think everyone should add to their playlists—and why.

“I recommend The Huberman Lab, hosted by neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Huberman. It’s insightful and highly enlightening in the areas of brain performance (and how to increase it), physical fitness, and many other min or body topics. Huberman usually has a guest who is an expert in a particular field. The conversations are always i plain English and very informative. I’m a big fan.”

LAWRENCE D. SCHWARTZ | Trivie

“I recommend How I Built This with Guy Raz. I am always inspired by hearing other entrepreneurs’ approaches to different company lifecycle challenges, from startup to the growing pains of becoming a mid-market competitor to exit.”

DANIELLE SHUFF

Connect Partnership Group

“I recommend The Craig Groeschel Leadership Podcast. I find it o be enlightening about how to change your mindset, embrace opportunity, and lead through difficult seasons. His guidance is to be an authentic leader.”

EROL AKDAMAR “Throwing Shade is my favorite podcast. I’m not sure it’s everyone’s cup of tea, but if you’re into hilarious commentary on politics, women’s rights, LGBTQ rights, and pop culture, then this show hosted by Erin Gibson and Bryan Safi is or you.”

“I’m a fan of Mastercard’s What’s Next In with Vicki Hyman. The topics are always thoughtful and relevant. Hyman is good at capturing trends in real time and bringing in leaders to provide deeper insights we can all learn from.” “The Voice of the Underdog is a great listen. It has it all: why culture matters for hiring, how to encourage team members, and the impact of culture on the bottom line. As a business owner, I value hearing insights on the topic from other CEOs.”

“Each episode of Philosophize This! focuses on a single philosopher, from Plato to Nietzsche to Emerson, and breaks down a key concept. It explains philosophical principles in an interesting, relevant, and easy to understand way.”
