WEP 253: The Business of You — An Interview with Authors Marnie Stockman and Nick Coniglio

Wired Educator Podcast Episode 253: The Business of You — An Interview with Authors Marnie Stockman and Nick Coniglio In this episode of the Wired Educator Podcast, I interview Marnie Stockman and Nick Coniglio , co-authors of The Business of Yo u —a guide to treating yourself as the most important project you'll ever work on. Marnie went from being a high school math teacher to becoming an EdTech leader before teaming up with Nick to run a software company. Nick started as a programmer, became an executive early in his career, and later jumped into entrepreneurship with Marnie. Together, they sold their company, co-authored the award-winning Lead it Like Lasso , and now bring their experiences and lessons to students, educators, and leaders through their newest book. In our conversation, Marnie and Nick share stories and strategies to help students and educators turn leadership lessons into real-life results.

Why they needed to write this book – what they are hearing about high school and college students and their struggles. Why people need to run their lives like a business (not in a corporate way). The importance of storytelling (in interviews, college essays, and networking). The value of building a personal board of advisors. The key question you need to ask yourself—and your own CFO. This is a powerful episode for anyone interested in helping students, educators, and themselves reframe leadership and personal growth in a practical, meaningful way. You are awesome!
