Agile Self-Development
Agile Self-Development explores how to design the second chapter of work and life.
After spending years — often decades — building careers, many of us start asking different questions. What kind of work do we actually want to do next? What pace of life feels sustainable? And what does “enough” really look like?
Hosted by Product Leader and Agile Practitioner Helene Amster Kopel, this podcast blends ideas from agile thinking, professional development, and real-life career experience to explore how our careers can evolve over time.
Instead of making dramatic pivots or starting over, the second chapter is about experimenting, learning, and intentionally designing what comes next.
Episodes include practical insights on skills like consulting, networking, and influence, along with deeper conversations about meaning, fulfillment, and redefining success in the later stages of a career.
If you’ve spent years climbing the ladder and are starting to wonder what comes next, you’re not alone.
Because the first chapter of our careers was about climbing.
The second chapter is about designing.

S3 Ep6 - WTF Is Mental Fortitude with David Theriot
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Mental Fortitude is described as mental and emotional strength in facing difficulty, adversity, danger, or temptation courageously. My guest on this episode is David Theriot, an ultrarunner and coach who understands that mental fortitude is pivotal to his success, very much akin to life's many other challenges.
David Theriot is an ultrarunner and coach who started running later in life after ACL reconstruction surgery. He's run 45 ultramarathons, 16 of them of 100 miles or more. He finds great joy in helping others come to the realization that they can do hard things. He's coached runners from all over the world to finish their first or furthest Ultramarathon. He also hosts the Run the Riot Podcast where he interviews runners from all over the world accomplishing amazing feats.
