Feeling depleted doesn’t mean you’re done; it means it’s time to borrow energy and build momentum. We sit down with Tom LeNoble to explore resilience you can use, starting with two simple levers: the energy of support and the energy of enjoyment. Let people help. Choose one small joy even on a hard day. Those choices create space to plant possibility after the storm, and that’s where real change takes root.

Tom shares the wisdom behind “planting possibilities”—shifting from grand leaps to baby steps that stack—while drawing on unforgettable moments with Maya Angelou and the Dalai Lama that anchor the power of presence. We dig into Opening Pathways, his podcast where tech CEOs and nonprofit leaders talk about AI, trust, values, and hope. The blend is intentional: AI is here to stay, and pairing it with human-centered leadership keeps it ethical, practical, and grounded. Along the way, we highlight nonprofits serving first‑gen students and menstrual equity, showing how small acts create ripples that outlast us.

You’ll also learn Tom’s philanthropic mindset—time, talent, and treasure—and why a smile can matter as much as a check when it’s given without expectation. We get tactical with manifestation that works in real life: name the goal, do the work, and release the timeline and exact form so opportunities can surprise you. For creators and leaders, Tom walks through the Haystack Method: you hold your own answers, and a coach helps you clear the hay to find the needle. If you’re battling writer’s block, capture ideas nonlinearly and sort later; three to four pages a day for 90 days can draft a book.
