Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 3, Episode 7 on Transacting Value Podcast!
Man of many talents, Ernie Porthouse is Porter’s guest today. Listeners are in for a treat. Ernie has a lot of life experience yet he has the energy and idealism of someone much younger. When inspiration strikes, he has the know-how, connections, resources, and experience to pursue his ideals – whether that’s creating reduced-cost orthotic shoes for the elderly or raising money for war-torn Ukraine.
Ernie is a professional pedorthist who is also an orchestral percussionist for the Hamilton Philharmonic Orchestra.
Ernie started playing drums when he was only 5 or 6 years old. He explains how playing in an orchestra has stretched him in ways that playing freestyle can’t. When you play orchestral music, you’re being “told” what to do and when to do it, so it has the potential of getting you out of your usual repertoire.
Now, about focaccia... Just before the Covid pandemic, Ernie took a trip to Italy and managed to come away with an authentic focaccia recipe. Back home in isolation, he started baking focaccia and sharing it with friends who raved about the bread. After the invasion of Ukraine, Ernie started selling his focaccia to raise money for Ukraine, gaining the attention of world-renowned chef, Massimo Capra. Ernie’s life is a lesson in how pursuing your talents and interests is your gift to the world.
Nuggets from Ernie:
- Interesting that we can often rise to meet the demands of others even when what’s expected is more than we would have expected of ourselves.
- We need to strike a balance between keeping up with the times while appreciating and understanding the old ways that got us where we are today.
Quotes from today’s episode:
“My teacher had me doing some of the most difficult things when I was just 13 and 14 years old. Years later he would say, ‘The reason you could play them is I never told you they were hard.’”
“What appealed to me the most with symphony music was the nuance and the attention to detail.”
“Sometimes limitations can make us better.”
“The digital world will never come between my sticks and my drum.”
“As a teacher, there is an obligation to be honest with your students.”
“You may not think to ask these questions when you’re older, and I may not remember the answers.”

Successful Habits of a CEO
Transacting Value Podcast

Become a Global Ambassador for Self-Worth. Text us your feedback!
Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 3, Episode 6 on Transacting Value Podcast!
CEO of Textdrip, Phil Portman, came from humble beginnings, one of seven children. As a young man, he was focused on having enough money and was determined to be a millionaire one day. Through hard work and some key decisions along the way, not only is he successful in business, he is a family man with a balanced life.
In today’s discussion with Porter, Phil tells the story of when, tired of being on the road away from his family, he decided to leave his well-paying corporate job and work for himself.
Things you’ll learn about Phil in today’s episode:
- He didn’t do well in college.
- When he left his corporate job to work for himself, he wondered if he made the wrong decision.
Behaviors and viewpoints that contribute to success:
- Set clear, written goals for various categories, over the next five years.
- Focus on being a well-rounded person.
- Develop healthy habits.
- Read every day.
- Work out every day.
- The better you get at building habits into your lifestyle, the more productive you become.
Tips for leaders, managers, and business owners:
- Don’t surround yourself with ‘yes’ men. Surround yourself with diverse perspectives.
- Ask, “Are we creating an atmosphere where our employees feel safe to tell us something is a bad idea or to give us feedback on something?”
- Build trust, encourage feedback, listen to it, and don’t take it personally.
- Have a philosophy of “I want my employees to be the best versions of themselves.”
- View the people around you through a positive lens and watch them rise with you. Let go of those who are not a positive influence in your life.
Phil describes how his character has developed as he has grown in life and business:
- 20 years ago, he was willing to lie to get ahead financially. Not today. Money is no longer the main goal. It’s a byproduct of the primary values in his life.
Phil’s top three values now:
- Integrity, the foundation of communication
- To leave the world a better place
- Family
Quotes from today’s episode:
“I have no doubt that anybody out there can do what I’ve done and have the same success.”
“I wanted to be a present dad for my kids.”
“You won’t get success overnight. Success is compounded.”
“Your habits are what you become.”
“It takes a thousand attaboys to make up for an ‘Oh, shit.’”

Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 4, Episode 50 on Transacting Value!
Today we're discussing the inherent but underrated December core values of Faith, Hope and Joy as strategies for character discipline and relative success, with author and storyteller, Gary Randolph. If you are new to the podcast, welcome! If you're a continuing listener, welcome back!
Today we're exploring the world through the storytelling lens of Gary Randolph, an author whose vibrant tales have spanned across the US, Ireland, Scotland, England, and Africa. Using his pen, Gary calls us to appreciate life's simple pleasures. Get ready to embark on a geographical wonder with us, brimming with joy, wonder, and a hearty dose of humor.
Peel back the layers of Gary's own personal values and see how they've shaped his dynamic stories. From his early love for reading to his current focus on being present and experiential learning, Gary's values thread their way through his narratives. But it's not all about books and storytelling - we also get a glimpse into Gary's personal life. His role as a long-distance dad, his battle with Hodgkin's lymphoma, and his passion for cycling provide an intimate portrait of a man who has learned to balance work, responsibilities, and his love for his family and friends.
Finally, we dive into the transformative power of storytelling, how it connects us, and how it can make us appreciate the moments of joy in our lives. Cycling and storytelling took a new meaning for Gary after his fight with Hodgkin's lymphoma, leading him on an inspiring journey of recovery and self-discovery. Get ready to laugh, learn, and be inspired as Gary shares anecdotes from his travels, including a stranger connection in Ireland and his cheeky visits to his twin grandsons.

Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 4, Episode 27 on Transacting Value Podcast!
What if we told you that fostering creativity, critical thinking, and independence in children can be achieved through play and unique learning experiences? Today we're discussing our July core values of Independence, Freedom, and Initiative with Neely Myers, the Executive Director of the Creative Learning Alliance, an emerging children's science center, to explore their fascinating approach to learning. Neely shares her insights on the importance of extending the invitation of learning to children in different regions and how her work can provide valuable perspective for parents and educators alike. If you value creativity and discovery then this episode is for you.
In this engaging conversation, Neely reveals how she promotes critical thinking, executive function, and creativity in children through play, problem-solving, and a focus on individual strengths and values. We also discuss the importance of identifying one's own strengths and values when working with a group, and how to transfer those skills to a young age. Additionally, Neely shares her thoughts on the enneagram scale and how her primary value of uniqueness and authenticity has shaped her life.
Finally, we take a deep dive into the world of building a science center with standalone exhibits and educational opportunities, such as workshops, classroom experiences, and camps. Learn about the importance of giving children the space to learn, ask questions, and even fail, in order to cultivate a platform for innovative thinking - even in the moment of frustration.

Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 3, Episode 26, our 2nd Annual Christmas Special, of Transacting Value Podcast!
Jake Pearson hails from Victoria, Australia, and is the host of the What Makes You Happy podcast where he interviews people from all over the world about what makes them happy. While joy and happiness are universal emotions, what ignites joy in each of us is unique. And what ignites joy is intricately linked to our individual values.
Each of us can live our lives according to the values of others, or we can dare to live according to our own values and, in so doing, find greater joy.
As a personal trainer, Jake helps build self-confidence in others by shifting internal dialogs. He encourages others to highlight things that are going well in their lives and build momentum from a place of positivity. He recognizes that being internally motivated will yield more and better fruit than what can come from external forces.
Jake encourages listeners to identify one or two things that bring them happiness. What are the things you gravitate to so much that you forget time exists? Incorporate more of those things in your day-to-day life. That is prioritizing you as an individual and the things that you value. Then ask, “Why does this make me happy? What about it brings me joy?”
Quotes from today’s episode
“You can live your life in accordance with what you value, or you can live your life in accordance with what other people value for you.”
“What drives us is all the things on the inside.”
“I love leaving people with something from every interaction – maybe a little bit of inspiration or a little bit more clarity or focus or direction.”
“If you cannot serve yourself, you are not showing up at 100% to serve other people. You owe it to yourself to be the best version of yourself by doing the things that are important to you.”

Reflecting on a year rich with heartfelt stories and transformative insights, we close our season with an episode dedicated to the values that guide us through life's maze. It's been an incredible journey with you, our listeners, and my team—Wendy, Bethany, and Adam—who've been the backbone of our tenfold growth. Together, we've ventured deep into the intimate landscapes of personal identity and self-awareness, illuminated by the experiences shared by our guests. As I look back on my own path from the Marine Corps to the reserves, the contrast between personal character and the often one-dimensional economic narratives prevalent in media becomes strikingly clear. This episode is a toast to the power of personal values and the promise of returning after the holidays with even richer conversations that reach beyond our daily transactions.
Amidst the whirls of political beliefs and the challenge of leadership in today's world, we turn our attention to the Importance of Character and Perspective. The actions and policies of figures like Trump invite us to weigh outcomes against intentions, and our guests have shed light on the indelible marks of play, confidence, and faith on our personal and political narratives. Reisa Schwartzman, Carla Palmer, Cindy Dagnan, Danielle Lindemann, and Doug Hunt share their unique perspectives that remind us of the universal yearnings for security, esteem, and connection. As we peel back the layers of character and its influence on our collective consciousness, this episode stands as a testament to the enduring quest for understanding and the multifaceted human experience that transcends political divides. Join us for a season finale that encapsulates the essence of our shared humanity and the values that define our journeys.

The Warrior Within
Transacting Value Podcast

Become a Global Ambassador for Self-Worth. Text us your feedback!
Alrighty folks, welcome back to Season 3, Episode 5 on Transacting Value Podcast!
The core values we’re focusing on for August are tact, generosity, and justice. Porter goes stream-of-consciousness about how our values impact the future of work. Individuals are valuing work that is more fluid which will allow for more creativity, passion, and specialized skill sets to shine through.
An important theme in today’s episode is to be someone that your future self can look back on and be proud of. With that future goal in mind, what kind of culture do you want to create? How do you want to behave? How do you want to respond? How do you want to lead? You can’t control all of the circumstances in your environment, but you can control your actions, your beliefs, and your responses.
In your responses and interactions, be tactful in addressing others and communicate without offending. You won’t be perfect. No one is. But you can be mindful of how you are perceived by others and how your words and actions affect others.
Consider yourself too. Pay attention to how your words (especially those that are inside your mind) make you feel. When you catch yourself being unnecessarily negative, change your focus to something positive before your day gets sidetracked by the negativity. You have the power to make micro shifts in your thinking that can change the trajectory of not only your day but of your life.
So be careful how you talk to yourself. The warrior within is listening.
Quotes from today’s episode:
“I can use tact as an attribute to influence my day or my attitude or my perspective on the world.”
“Ultimately everybody just wants to increase value for their time and effort.”
“Everybody has something worthwhile to contribute.”
“Be careful how you talk to yourself. The warrior within is listening.”
“The scales of justice are weighed in gold. He who holds the money holds the power.”
