I loved Whitney Johnson's book so was curious to listen to her podcast. I wasn’t disappointed! “Disrupt Yourself" podcast is a game-changer for anyone seeking personal and professional growth. Through engaging conversations with diverse disruptors, Johnson skillfully challenges conventional thinking while drawing out practical wisdom from her guests. Whether you're a seasoned executive or just starting out, this podcast offers a unique blend of inspiration and actionable strategies.

I just listened to the interview with Betty Lu of Confetti Snacks. I was energized and enthused with the wisdom shared. This was made possible by the insightful questions posed by Whitney. This is my 3rd time listening and I love this show; so creative and encouraging. Oh BTW, right after listening, I went to Amazon to ensure I could order them.

This is not the normal podcast. Whitney Johnson’s experience as a coach and interviewer really shine through because she uncovers something special about each guest that they didn’t even know about themselves.

With engaging conversations featuring disruptors, each episode provides new insights into the way we work, learn, and live. This show has helped me truly embrace change and it's a must-listen! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Just love your podcasts!

Loved the episode with Arthur Brooks felt like it was directed right to me :) Whitney always knocks it out of the park. Really love this podcast.

I have been WAITING for you to interview Arthur Brooks! I knew it would be fantastic! You both are my “gurus” and this episode did not disappoint. I’ve already read Brook’s Strength to Strength but this interview gave me added insights. Thanks to both of you for blessing my life!🤩

I learned about Whitney and her work from the Elevate podcast with Robert Glazer and it has become an essential listen every week. If you want inspiration on how to continually improve yourself and your life, you will find that here. Whitney is an incredibly gifted interviewer. She does an amazing job of allowing the guest to showcase their work. She is committed to making each episode an opportunity for her listeners to learn and models this by wrapping each episode with her key takeaways. Highly recommend!

Disrupt Yourself with Whitney Johnson is one of the most important podcasts I listen to each week. It is entertaining and informative and most importantly, it is a key moment in my week to think outside myself about a topic that I might not have considered. It helps me expand my thinking not only in the subject at hand, but in life in general. The disruption muscle is not one we get to exercise frequently; listening to Whitney’s podcast strengthens my ability to adapt, adjust and think differently and has introduced me to voices I would not have otherwise heard. Top 10 Podcast on my list for sure

Whitney, Thank you for so thoughtfully selecting your guests and for crafting your episodes so I walk away with golden nuggets I can begin implementing in my life right away! I have truly loved them all and look forward to listening. There are certain things you come across you know are meant for you, and Disrupt Yourself podcast is one of those things for me!!!!

I love these podcasts! Each one is packed with invaluable insights. The episode with Russ Wheeler offers a fascinating look at patterns for growth - specifically how after mastering a role, he would take on new positions that may have looked like a step back, but instead offered the learning opportunities to catapult him in new directions. I highly recommend listening to these interviews each week!

Every week I invest in myself by listening to Disrupt Yourself. I’m so grateful for Whitney and her insights, guests who are interviewed and the wealth of knowledge they bring. This podcast has helped me to understand how I have prospered by disrupting myself. I share Disrupt yourself with everyone I meet. Thank you Whitney for your generosity, for giving so freely to individuals and community. I was at NAU recently for an ASID meeting with the Design Department and I shared one of your podcast with the leaders and they told me that you came and met with the students. Thank you for caring so much. You have truly enriched my life & I'm so grateful that I was able to come to know Disrupt Yourself.

Disrupt Yourself is a favorite in my feed! I'm consistently impressed by the engaging conversations, insightful content, and actionable ideas. Not to mention, Whitney is consistently giving us a masterclass on what it means to be a fantastic interviewer. My sincere thanks to Whitney and her podcast team for putting this fabulous show out into the world!

This podcast is changing my life. Currently, I am in a job that does not appreciate talent, but treats everyone the same. This model was detailed in the recent podcast with Roger Martin. As I watch other companies appreciate their employees with advancement, training, pay increases, and the like, the company I work for does nothing but pour on demands and raise expectations. The general attitude is, if you don't like it, you can leave, so why don't I? I just turned 60 and I'm single, that's why. I feel the reset for me has passed. Through listening to this podcast, however, I feel the puff of a second wind. Maybe I, too, can get on the S-curve and be propelled into something I truly enjoy and to who I truly want to be. I will continue to listen in the hopes of finding the path that shows me that my life isn't over but is waiting for me around the next bend.

Whitney Johnson is a superb interviewer and one of the best deep listeners. Especially in today’s world, listening is as important as communicating. Whitney develops rapport with her guests, because she is interested in every one of them. She wants to learn from them. Her interview with Bob Proctor was more insightful than his own seminars. He would have agreed, with a laugh, if he were here to read my review. Her podcast of Tom Peters is probably the best podcast I’ve ever heard. That says a lot, because I’m a podcast junkie. I laughed through much of the podcast while listening through earbuds at the gym.

Wow, is all I can say. Listen to Whitney interview for 5 minutes and you understand why her podcast is so wildly successful. She is an amazingly insightful and thoughtful listener and draws the deepest "aha's" out of her guests. When someone can think on their feet with rapid speed and ask the question all the listeners are thinking, it's truly a gift. Make this podcast a regular listen and you will receive the gift of disruption on every level of your experience. Whitney is a master!

Leverage relationships AND be willing to stay and follow up when the response to the request is not immediate- stop telling myself stories that are not true!

I listened regularly to Whitney’s podcast, as I love the S Curve of learning model. But on my morning walk as I was listening to Tuesday’s (8/17), I exclaimed holy crap, that’s it! (Neighbors raised eyebrows) This what’s holding women leaders back! These are what my coaching clients are struggling with. I rushed home and messaged all my mid level women leader clients the link to the podcast. In our sessions this week, we talk about what resonated with them. Whitney’s podcasts are though provoking, but with practical exercises, to apply to pushing yourself further. I use her closing remarks, when I end a coaching session. What was of value to you in this session? All of it!!

Whitney is not only kind and brilliant, but she brings on guests who challenge the limits of brilliance and personal development. What a great podcast! A+

This is a consistently great podcast! Whitney is a fantastic interviewer and really helps to bring out the core and practical lessons that can be learned from those she interviews.

Whitney, host of the Disrupt Yourself podcast, highlights all aspects of people’s passions and more in this can’t miss podcast! The host and expert guests offer insightful advice and information that is helpful to anyone that listens!

I love this podcast because I always come away having learned something I never knew I wanted to learn. Whitney has a wonderful skill of asking the right questions and has introduced me to books, topics and people that launch me down a path that I’ve loved to discover and explore. This is truly a gift that keeps on giving. Thank you!

Learn how to disrupt yourself with Whitney Johnson and her excellent podcast! Her topics cover so many ways we can disrupt ourselves and our teams as the industry and world evolves. Understanding the S curve is only the start to the things I learn that help me manage change and adopt a growth mindset.

My mom and dad shared this podcast with me. I was dragged my feet a little, but quickly regretted my hesitancy. The first episode I heard I re-listened to daily for a week. I am so grateful for Whitney’s interview and synthesis skills. This podcast is a gift!

Disrupt Yourself Podcast provides information which brings to light important topics you wouldn’t otherwise have. Whitney Johnson weaves threads from many lives into a beautiful tapestry that will enrich your life. Subscribe and enjoy!

I thoroughly enjoy you podcasts and find gems in each episode that I can apply in my business or personal life. Keep it coming.

I highly recommend listening to this podcast for inspiration! Whitney and her guests discuss very valuable, insightful content!

I’ve enjoyed listening to Whitney’s podcast for awhile. She asks great questions and has a great rapport with guests. I always come away with something to ponder more deeply. (**Note for the producers: One suggestion is to reduce the volume level of the background music (or eliminate it) when speakers are talking. It’s made it more difficult to understand what is being said and a bit distracting in some of the podcasts lately #201, #205)

I love listening to Whitney’s skillful interviews. You can see that she is interested in people, ideas and the world. What an inspirational woman!

Whitney is a skilled interviewer, and the guests speak for themselves. Great for anyone looking to take the next step in their careers or personal development.

I started listening 9 months ago and Whitney’s skillful questioning of high quality guests always validate my experiences, motivate me to take action and inspire me to reach higher; yes all three! The Disrupt Yourself podcast is also integrated into Whitney’s bi-weekly LinkedIn Live sessions giving listeners a global community of like minded professionals to interact with as well as with Whitney herself. Whitney and WLJ team’s attention to detail is incredible and screams authenticity that is so rare when thought leaders are this successful!

Advice without fluff. Real examples and data to support it. I listen on walks to and from places and also on drives. Works great!

If you are ready to disrupt yourself and accelerate your career, this is the podcast for you. Whitney Johnson interviews experts and shares some great advice that we can all use. This podcast is awesome!

Great podcast! Whitney has great interviews and guests. I really enjoy trying to relate to the guests and try and apply their life lessons to me. Thanks you Whitney!!!!

Whitney's podcast is great and so insightful. Recent episodes that have resonated with me were with Dr. Mary Gray, and with Livingston Taylor, and taught me I need to get better about really seeing people, and being my best self for them. Kudos to Whitney and team!

Great episode with Dr Hardy. Looking forward to being a person of influence to inspire growth, purpose, and development. In three years I am going to have a thriving business that requires less time than my current job and makes 3 times as much.

The Disrupt Yourself podcast offers just what busy people need: interviews with a curated series of business and behavioral thinkers, scholars and practitioners to help us make sense of it all. Whitney’s accessible interview approach - she comes to each podcast as a learner with deep curiosity for the subject - delivers answers to the questions we would ask had we read the guest’s book and prepared as Whitney does. The result is an oft-quoted business podcast you should save to favorites.

Whitney offers the best of podcasts by combining learning and practical application. It’s a listen that’s always worth the time!

This episode blew me away! Whitney is famous for asking interview questions that really matter...giving the listener deep insights, not just a bunch of ‘how to’s’ and check lists. And her interview with Molly Beck was a stellar example! Molly is the poster child of creating her way out of constraints. I was moved to tears when she told how she forces herself to sprint on a treadmill every night at 6, to help her focus on, and celebrate how hard she consistently tries, which helps her to battle her way through criticism and setbacks. PURE MOTIVATION! I’m so proud of women like Whitney and Molly! Thank you!

Giveaway aside, this was the episode that motivated me to finally review this podcast. I’ve become a fan of Whitney and how she brings m extremely successful guests onto her show and they stay relatable and their advice is reachable to someone just starting the entrepreneur life. I’ve been stuck in launching a podcast for months (have had the equipment and everything) but just can’t find the courage to record and publish. Hearing that now is the time to start because time is running out for new podcasts is a huge motivation to stop procrastinating. How Molly describes an ideal podcast is 100% doable and follows the same pattern of my current favorite podcasts👏🏻 Hearing what I already know confirms its truth!

I originally was introduced to Whitney just over a year ago through the Innovation Ecosystem podcast. That’s when I really started my journey to look critically at myself and my career. I’m fortunate that Whitney’s interview and perspective jumped off the page to me. In fact, she was the only person I started to follow and I’m so thankful I did. She walks-the-walk, is thought provoking and consistently develops content. Today I was catching up on a couple of episodes and listened to Dr. Benjamin Hardy and Molly Beck. What I treasure is that Whitney asks questions with action in mind. Through that lens, she also asks her audience to actionable leave reviews. Sure, there are some promotional give aways which will offer deeper learnings, but I’d argue that it could be more impactful for the reviewers that they are actioning in writing their reviews. How cool is it that a review may be their tipping point to seriously improving? This brings me to who my future self is. I’m wiser, more empathetic, disciplined with urgency, patient in understanding, and self-forgiving. I’m aspirational and I have high expectations of myself. So, that can often translate into being tough on myself and thinking that I should be further ahead. P.S. I sing Disrupt Yourself in song form via Charles Wright’s Express Yourself. Am I the only one?

I heard Whitney Johnson speaking on another podcast which led me here and I am so glad it did! The episode with Molly Beck was absolutely inspiring and has given me so many ideas about how I can be more innovative in my own life, especially in the field of podcasting. Everyone who feels stuck in any part of their life, should check out this episode for ideas!

Whitney is such a skilled interviewer and coach - I learn more from her questions and connections than the guests. I especially enjoyed her I interview with Molly Beck. Molly generously shared tips and feedback in such an approachable way... I have always wanted to have a podcast - to share my thoughts and learnings but it always seems such a big endeavor. But not anymore!

Interview with Benjamin Hardy invites us to call ourselves from our future selves: for me, a compassionate listener who finds a way where there is no (obvious) way by being fully present to emerging possibilities. Loved the sense of possibility offered by this conversation.

I just listened to this episode today so I may be too late for the contest but I really enjoyed your conversation with Ben. I learned a lot. I also want to support Ben’s goal to sell millions of copies of this book. From my understanding & to create accountability for myself in speaking of my future self I need to redefine my boundaries (which have never been good in relationship to my own health) the idea that my commitment to myself is about my present self & not my future self was very interesting. I will get the book & start journaling to create the future self I want to be—especially 45 pounds lighter). 😉
