This isn’t your typical changemaking podcast, because it’s not for your typical changemaker. It’s for the innovators who can’t stop taking in information, connecting dots, and changing the world—even when the world hasn’t asked for it. Even when the changemaker desperately needs a break.

If that sounds familiar, you aren’t broken, difficult, or an incurable workaholic. You’re a Catalyst, and authors Tracey Lovejoy and Shannon Lucas believe that means you’re a rock star. You just need to have the language to understand your process and key tools to help you survive it.

As Catalysts themselves, Tracey and Shannon work to make Catalysts better understood, connected, and supported in their processes. Instead of a how-to, they’ve created a personal operations manual that will help you move fast without losing people, break shit with intentionality, and lessen the intensity of the burnout cycle. Their new book, Move Fast. Break Shit. Burn Out. won’t tell you to stop working—it will help you finally, sustainably work well.

In this podcast series Tracey and Shannon are interviewing the Catalysts who were profiled in the book and having extended discussion about what it means to be a Catalyst and how to use that information to grow and thrive.
