WHERE CONVERSATION MOVES FORWARD
The UNSTUCK Podcast
Getting stuck is part of leading. What matters is what happens next.
The UNSTUCK Podcast features real conversations hosted by Tim Terrentine, Founder and Chief Translator at Translator’s Consulting Group, with leaders and change-makers navigating moments of tension, transition, and growth. Each episode explores what it means to feel stuck — in a role, a system, a community, or a decision — and how people find their way forward.
These conversations are candid, thoughtful, and grounded in lived experience. They offer language for naming what’s hard, perspective for seeing more clearly, and practical insight for building momentum that holds.
If you’re working to move through something — or help others do the same — you’re in the right place.

Jerry Price
Episode: 008: From the Neighborhood to the Boardroom — Leading With Your Blueprint
In our latest UNSTUCK episode, Jerry Price — Belonging Partner Advisor for Corewell Health East — shares how growing up in Benton Harbor, Michigan shaped the leader he became. And why the blueprint his parents handed him from the Deep South of Mississippi and Florida is the same one he uses to guide belonging, culture transformation, and inclusive leadership at one of the region's largest health systems. This isn't a conversation about HR strategy. It's about what it looks like when belonging is not a program — it's a way of life.
