| 6/3/26 | ![]() 56: Helping Others Win: The Story of Ted Baker | For more than 15 years, Ted Baker has helped entrepreneurs, dreamers, and business owners turn ideas into reality. As the Executive Director of the Innovation Connector, his fingerprints are on countless businesses and success stories across Indiana.But as you'll hear in this episode, Ted's story is about much more than business.From growing up in small-town Indiana, to building and selling companies of his own, to nearly 47 years of marriage, Ted shares the people, moments, and lessons that shaped the man he is today. Along the way, we talk about faith, family, leadership, generosity, entrepreneurship, and why helping others succeed has become one of his life's greatest joys.What stood out to me most was Ted's deep gratitude for the life he's been given and his unwavering belief that success is never really about ourselves, it's about how we impact the people around us.In this episode, you'll hear:• Why Ted believes "some things are taught, and some things are caught."• The childhood memory that shaped how he views marriage and family to this day.• What nearly five decades of marriage have taught him about love and commitment.• Why seeing other people succeed brings him more joy than his own accomplishments.• The difference between work-life balance and "work-life choices."• How faith has guided every season of his life.Favorite Quotes:"Just remember, for you to be successful, you have to make everyone around you successful.""Make a difference where you can and when you can.""The door is always open.""If God can get it through you, He'll get it to you."Ted's life is a beautiful reminder that leadership isn't about recognition, it's about service. And sometimes the greatest legacy we leave behind is the impact we've had on others. | 1h 40m 30s | ||||||

| 8/27/25 | ![]() 45: Marilyn Culler: Following Breadcrumbs & Living with Kindness | In Episode 45 of Words of the Wise, host Lexie Manor revisits a conversation with Marilyn Culler. Marilyn’s life story is one of unexpected turns, deep faith, and steady kindness.She recalls her idyllic childhood exploring the mountains and streams of eastern Pennsylvania, often saying: “Growing up in nature and being surrounded by such beauty has really stuck with me my whole life.”Her career path is full of surprises—working as a freelance photographer, training law enforcement officers in photography, and eventually finding her calling at DePauw University. As she says: “I feel like I’ve followed breadcrumbs, and they’ve worked out.”Throughout the episode, Marilyn reflects on what it means to guide young people, describing it as a high calling: “When parents entrust their children to us, I take that very seriously. Everything else falls in line behind that.”She offers wisdom for both students and listeners alike: “Don’t be discouraged. Follow your passion and find what you love and you’ll never work a day in your life.” “Listen. Because if we don’t listen to others, we can’t learn about them.” “If I’m remembered for anything, I hope it’s for being kind.” This re-release is a celebration of Marilyn’s legacy at DePauw, her impact on generations of students, and the reminder that often the little things in life are the most important. | 39m 30s | ||||||
| 8/20/25 | ![]() 44: Max Newlin: Faith, Family & Farmland | In Episode 44 of Words of the Wise, host Lexie Manor sits down with Max Newlin, an 84-year-old lifelong Plainfield, Indiana resident, farmer, husband, and man of deep faith.From a playful kiss on the playground in first grade to nearly 64 years of marriage, Max’s love story with his wife Beverly is as enduring as it is inspiring. He reflects on their simple but powerful marriage advice: “Two words: yes ma’am.”Max and Beverly raised three children, including their son Brad, who was diagnosed with terminal cancer at 22 while studying to be a minister at Taylor University. Brad passed away at just 23, and in his honor, the family established a scholarship that continues to bless future ministers. Max’s faith carried him through, as he shared: “I knew where he was.”Throughout the episode, Max reflects on: His childhood lessons in self-reliance: “My parents didn’t give me anything, they gave me everything.” His decades of farming the land he grew up on and the joy of “watching things grow.” His lifelong commitment to serving others: “I hope to be remembered as someone who tried to serve the Lord.” Opening his home and heart to friends who became family. This episode is both tender and timeless—a testimony of a man whose faith shaped his family and his community, and whose legacy of love and service will continue to ripple through generations. | 59m 51s | ||||||
