S5.18-122 - What's in a Name... "Steve" - Part Two

In this special Part 2 episode, I’m joined once again by Steve, one of my earliest podcast guests, for a deeper and more reflective conversation on the meaning of names and the role they play in identity, respect, and connection.

We explore why getting someone’s name right is far more than a courtesy—it’s a signal of care. Steve shares personal stories from both his professional life and his work as a sports announcer, showing how pronunciation, curiosity, and intentionality can transform everyday interactions into meaningful connections.

This episode goes beyond definitions. It’s about slowing down, asking better questions, and discovering the “rest of the story” behind the people we meet—whether at work, in our communities, or in our personal lives.

If you enjoy thoughtful conversations, subtle mindset shifts, and practical ways to connect more deeply with others, this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen in—and you might just see names (including your own) in a whole new way.
