About the Host
Bill McMenamin
I’m a longtime HR leader, seasoned communicator, and someone who’s sat through enough workplace meetings to know exactly when a calendar invite is a cry for help.
The Midweek Mindshift was born from a simple idea: professionals need a smarter kind of break. One that’s short, sharp, and actually helps reset your brain without demanding another productivity app download or a motivational quote on a coffee mug.
Each episode is designed to:
• Deliver a bite of insight (with a side of sarcasm)
• Share a real-world habit or mindset shift you can use today
• Introduce tools and tech — like AI — in ways that don’t require a computer science degree
• The podcast is for people balancing big goals, tight deadlines, and the occasional existential crisis in a Zoom window.
A Few Fast Facts:
• Based in the U.S. Mid-Atlantic Region
• Voice-first storyteller and early-stage voiceover artist
• Passionate about helping professionals find focus, purpose, and a little breathing room
• Fuel source of choice: Extra Strength 5-Hour Energy and stronger one-liners.
If this podcast helps you shift your mindset, sharpen your edge, or just laugh a little harder at the chaos of corporate life — I’m glad you’re here.
