Episode 11

Do you want to make a significant impact at work and in your personal life, or just sleepwalk through it all and check off some boxes?

Our guest has given much thought and practice to living with purpose and being in alignment with his values. This practice begins with identifying what your values are. He includes the lessons learned in his workshops, books, recruiting business, and work as a Vistage Chair, along with his community, and family life.

He is Michael Duke from Shelbyville, Kentucky.

We'll begin by talking about Michael's background and then get into how we can understand our values and lead a significant life.


There's a particular rhythm to life in central Kentucky, a blend of rolling hills, deep history, and vibrant community that Tom Hailey captures in his Bluegrass Region Voices and Views podcast. This isn't a travelogue or a dry history lesson. Instead, Tom sits down with the people who give this area its character-artists crafting in studio barns, community organizers planting roots for the future, and historians uncovering layers of the past. You'll hear stories from the front porches of small towns and the bustling kitchens of local eateries, getting a genuine sense of place that goes far beyond the postcard. Each episode feels like a personal introduction, whether it's spotlighting a family-run orchard you've never heard of or a cultural festival that defines a community's spirit. The conversations are meandering and authentic, often uncovering the quiet passions and unexpected projects that truly shape the region's identity. For anyone curious about the soul of Kentucky beyond the racetracks, or for locals looking to rediscover the richness in their own backyard, this podcast offers a thoughtful, human-centered audio tour. It’s about listening in on the stories that are already being told, if you just know where to find them.
