I'm thrilled to bring you this inspiring conversation with Steve Schlafman, a former venture capitalist who has undergone a powerful transformation in his life and work. We dive into our complex relationship with success and how to thrive amidst the constant changes in today's world. Steve's journey from the high-paced world of venture capital to founding Downshift, a coaching firm that supports ambitious professionals through transition and transformation, provides a fascinating lens on redefining success and maintaining ambition without burnout.
Steve Schlafman comes to us with an impressive background, having held roles at top firms in New York, such as Primary Venture Partners and RRE Ventures, as well as operating positions at Microsoft, the New England Patriots, and various startups. Despite this success, Steve felt disconnected and burnt out, prompting a period of self-discovery that ultimately led to the founding of Downshift. Through his work, Steve now helps executives and creators refine their inner compass in an intentional and deeply energizing way.
"It's not about slowing down to a standstill; it's learning to change gears so you can accelerate."
~ Steve Schlafman
Today on The Rising Leader:
· The realization of a need for change often starts as a whisper and grows into a secret that needs to be honored.
· Professionals feel off despite their success, and there's a longing for authenticity and fulfillment.
· Itâs possible to remain ambitious while developing a healthy relationship with your career and personal life.
· Slowing down isnât about inactivity but about being deliberate to gain momentum and deeper fulfillment.
· Acknowledging and addressing resistance can aid significant personal and professional growth.
· A well-balanced life outside work contributes to better performance and satisfaction within work.
· Embrace the unknown and mystery rather than viewing every problem as needing an immediate fix.
· We are deeply interconnected with our environment; recognizing this can bring more awareness and adaptability.

In today's episode, I dive into a powerful meditation technique I recently discussed with the incredible Michael Neal, author of Super Coach and the Inside Out Revolution. This meditation is designed to calm the mind, reduce anxiety, and bring us into the present moment, where we can tackle challenges with clarity and focus. I share my personal experience with this technique and how it has helped me overcome procrastination and anxiety in my own life.
"One of the reasons we're good in a crisis is something terrible is happening, but we show up as our best because we can show up in the present, we can do incredible things in the present."
~Mark Silverman
Today on The Rising Leader:
· Procrastination is often rooted in fear and anxiety and can be overcome through mindfulness and meditation.
· The past is already gone, and we often don't remember it clearly. It's important to thank the past and let it go.
· The future is unknown, and we can't do anything about it in the present. Worrying about the future only creates unnecessary stress and anxiety.
· The present moment is where we are always safe, grounded, and able to manage things effectively.
· Setting a timer for focused work periods can help us stay present and productive.
· Our minds often wander to the past or future, leading to stress and unhappiness. Restoring ourselves to the present is crucial for our well-being.
· Simple grounding techniques, like wiggling your fingers and toes or taking deep breaths, can help you stay present and focused.
· Focusing on the task, whether washing dishes, handling paperwork, or making a phone call, can help us stay grounded in the present moment.

So, we're early in the new season of "The Rising Leader," today, we're diving deep into the themes of grounding, success, and transformational coaching with Michael McDonald. In light of the significant changes expected in 2025, it's vital to understand how to stay grounded and centered amid the chaos. Michael, a transformational coach with clients ranging from CEOs to other coaches globally, shares his evolved coaching philosophy, focusing on subtracting rather than adding to his client's lives to find their inner tranquility and true potential.
Michael McDonald is a transformational coach for entrepreneurs and executives, working with CEOs, executives, entrepreneurs, and mentoring other coaches around the world. With a style described as part Mr. Rogers, part Inception, he helps high performers find effortlessness, inspiration, and simplicity in everything theyâre up to, great and small.
âSomething awesome is trying to happen, and your job is to allow it.â - Michael McDonald

Youâve probably heard me say a million times that when I feel resentment, itâs a sign of something more profound. Maybe it means I havenât set a boundary, I havenât asked for something I want, or maybe, just maybe, Iâm jealous. In this episode of The Rising Leader, I dive deep into the goldmine hidden in our feelings of resentment and harsh judgment. By examining our emotions and reactions, we can uncover valuable insights about our unmet needs and desires. Whether dealing with colleagues at work or frustrations on the road, thereâs always something to learn from the negative feelings we harbor.
This weekâs episode features insights from an executive coaching session. The client, a brilliant leader, stayed up until 2:00 AM fixing reports from his team, while another leader in the organization had no such issues. We peel back the layers of jealousy and resentment to reveal lessons in leadership and accountability. Without swinging to extremes, we explore how even the most negative judgments can be turned into self-reflective gold.
âResentment can be a beacon pointing us towards what we truly desire or lack in our lives.â
~Mark Silverman
This week on The Rising Leader:
· How resentment reveals unmet needs
· The importance of setting boundaries
· Transforming jealousy into self-improvement
· A coaching case study on leadership and report handling
· The power of accountability in leadership
· Using negative judgments as positive learning tools
· Venting frustrations: Road rage as a reflection of inner desires
· Expanding personal and professional range through self-reflection

In this episode of The Rising Leader, I explore the profound connection between nature, stress, and leadership with my insightful guest, Sam Morris. We dive into how one can experience nature, from superficial encounters to profound, transformative engagements. We also discuss the cultural endorsement of stress and its impact on decision-making and team coherence, as well as how adopting a vitality-oriented mindset can lead to better outcomes in both personal and professional life. Additionally, I share a personal story about a client struggling with work-life balance and the importance of communication in reducing stress.
Sam Morris, the founder of Zen Warrior Training and co-founder of USA Protective Care, joins me to delve into his journey of resilience and renewal following a life-changing car accident in 1999. Sam's leadership philosophy is built on mindfulness, anti-fragility, and the continuous breakdown of identity assumptions to uncover greater self-awareness. He offers a unique perspective on stress, identity, and how leaders can thrive by integrating this wisdom into their lives.
âSeeing life as a game makes it less about the outcomes and more about the adventure.â

Have you ever felt unheard or not respected? Perhaps youâve been in a political conversation where you know with every fiber of your being that what the other person is saying is completely wrong, untrue, or theyâre listening to the wrong sources â and it triggers you. Then you begin to get âwrapped around the axleâ. Perhaps there was an experience you felt could have been avoided that triggered you to react in an emotional way rather than a calm, wise one.
It can be hard to stay calm, cool, and collected during a passionate or heated conversation, especially when you wholeheartedly believe that youâre right, and the other person is wrong. But, like Michael Singer said: âYou donât have to be strong, you need to be wise.â So in these moments, is it more important to be right â or to be happy and effective?
In this episode, I discuss how we often fall into the trap of spinning our wheels or get âwrapped around the axleâ over things people say or events that happen. I discuss how arguing with events or realities often causes us to get distracted and leak energy and power. I discuss how our emotional intelligence determines how much power we leak in the office, in the boardroom, or in life overall and how our ego often plays a problematic role in these settings. I also discuss the power of taking deep breaths when things donât go the way you think they should and the beauty of saying âthank youâ when receiving unwanted or unexpected feedback.
âWhen things happen at work â the person who can get to sane faster, the person who can get to emotional maturity and emotional intelligence faster is the person who has the power in every conversation.â - Mark Silverman
This week on The Rising Leader Podcast:
â How arguing with reality and the things that happen cause us to leak energy, power, and get distracted
â How we often fall into the trap of spinning our wheels
â How having strong emotional intelligence prevents us from leaking power
â The power of calmly asking questions
â How our ego is often the root cause of most problems or arguments
â Asking yourself: Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy and effective
â Taking deep breaths when things donât go the way we think they should
â Saying âthank youâ when receiving negative feedback
My Favorite Cliches on Being Right vs. Being Effective:
â Do you want to be right or do you want to be happy?
â âWhen you argue with reality, you only lose 100% of the time.â - Byron Katie
â Acceptance is the key to my serenity.
â âHow do we know something should have happened? Because it did.â - Byron Katie
â âYou donât have to be strong. You need to be wise.â - Michael Singer

I realized I did not do my solo episode, and today is the deadline for me to upload it for the production team. When I started thinking about what the topic was going to be for today, I went through the workshop that I'm actually about to lead, and I noticed we're doing a lot of nuts-and-bolts leadership training. This is ABC's delegation of how you keep track of projects and how you keep them on track. How do you do performance improvement plans? How do you give feedback? So, we will be having all those conversations about the nuts and bolts, about leadership.
I'm really excited about the parts of the workshop, the parts of my book, the parts of my videos, and everything I talk about. That's more about who you need to be a leader. For me, I steal the nuts and bolts and the mechanics of leadership from Pat Lencioni. I had Cameron Harold on my podcast, who is excellent at teaching leadership teams the nuts and bolts of keeping track of their business.
âAmazing leaders who have accomplished so much have a common denominator: they run towards fire.â - Mark J. Silverman
This week on The Rising Leader:
· Leadership shifts focus from personal achievements to team successes.
· An effective leader must be grounded and centered to handle responsibilities maturely.
· Stop playing the victim; take full responsibility, even if it's not your fault.
· Learn to deliver candid feedback without overdramatizing it.
· Understand your team's personality types to improve communication.
· Leadership is about uplifting and inspiring your team to achieve their goals.
· A good leader creates an environment where strategic vision thrives.
· Effective communication is meeting people where they are and considering their motivations and fears.
