The Ripple Effect Inc. Changing the way the world works through the power of CONNECTION

10/10/2026

Ten years can slip away while life is going fine. A job that works, a routine that works, a plan to change things once the timing is right.

Jason Boulette says the first 10 years of his career went by quickly, and without a choice, the next 10 were going to go by just as fast. He calls the decision to change things a moment of discomfort that led to a career of fulfillment. He'd do it again over and over.

Your version might be a hard conversation, a new job, or finally making time for what matters. A moment of discomfort can be a small price for the years that follow.

Who’s the one person in your life who tells you the truth even when you’d rather they didn’t? Jason Boulette has a lot to say about that on this week’s episode of The Ripple Effect Podcast.

Watch on YouTube or listen wherever you get your podcasts.

Jason Boulette has a simple test: if someone else can handle it, let them, so you're free for the one thing only you can do. He says it can sound like dodging responsibility, and it really isn't. Hand the lower-priority work to capable people who want it, and suddenly there's time for what's actually yours. It took him about five years to get there.

That works at the office, on a team, and at home.

Jason is an Austin employment lawyer and founding partner of Boulette Golden & Marin. The full episode is now available on YouTube and everywhere you listen to podcasts!

You can be good at something, even respected for it, and still know it isn't the life you want.
A lot of us have felt that quietly and kept going, because staying looked safer than leaving.

Jason Boulette gave the person trying to talk him out of leaving the one line that finally made it click: he'd rather fail at what he's about to try than continue to succeed at what he's doing. He calls it a great negotiating line, and when you truly mean it, he says the risk is low.

If that line hit you somewhere, the full conversation is worth your time. It's live now on YouTube and everywhere you listen to podcasts.

The people on the front lines of education don't get to have a bad day. Whatever they're carrying, they show up with their "front face" on anyway, because the kid in front of them needs it. Most of them aren't doing this for the paycheck. They're doing it because they genuinely care about seeing those light bulbs go off.

To every educator reading this: your Ripples go further than you know. That kid having a rough morning who needed someone to just see them today? You probably won't ever see where that Ripple ends up, but it goes far.

If you know a teacher, a counselor, a principal, anyone doing this work, tag them below. And if you want the full conversation, it's live now on YouTube and everywhere you listen to podcasts!!!

When you fight hard for your people, they fight just as hard for you. And no, it's not a strategy. It's just what happens when care is real.

This month at Ripple, we're talking about Rippling Through the Hard Times, and this is exactly what that looks like in practice. At the end of the day, people don't stick around for the best strategy. They stay because someone's in their corner.

September was heavy for me. My Dad passed way. I got to see The Eagles at The Sphere. My wife won at slots like she always does. There were smiles. There were lots of tears. There were two Old Fashions that cost more than my first car.

October better watch out because I’m coming for it like it owes me money. Which based on last year’s October it does…with interest.

If you've got aging parents, or you know this chapter is coming for your family eventually, this one's worth your time.

Our very own Rippler, Caroline Valentine, sat down with Robyn Booth, a senior living advisor and founder of Keep Austin Caring, for an honest conversation about navigating care for aging loved ones. When to start the conversation. Why waiting for a crisis puts you in reaction mode instead of ahead of it. How to find people you can actually trust with something this personal.

This one hit close to home for me too, more than I expected going in.

The full conversation is exclusive to The Pond, and signing up is free. Come watch it with us, Ripplers.
