How can we lead with authenticity and empathy in both our personal and professional lives?

We examine the pitfalls of overconfidence and how the practice of forgiveness can help us move forward in healthier ways. Ultimately, we emphasize the value of identifying the people in our lives who can provide a safe space for us to be ourselves and have honest conversations, even if they are uncomfortable.

How does the word spiritual relate to productivity? If we agree that the definition of productivity is doing work that matters, then the two are completed linked to one another: it's tied to the habits you do each day; the way you look at time management; and even the words you choose to describe what work means to you. In today's episode we're going to tackle questions like: How do I find meaning in my life? and How do I stop feeling like my job sucks? and I'll share some quick and easy ways to feel instantly better about your days.

Work life balance is the most Google searched productivity topic. We are constantly striving to achieve balance, when the truth is: We don't want a balanced life. The cost of greatness is commitment, which means sometimes leaning heavily into work and other times we need to lean more heavily into our personal lives. This consistent shifting, creates harmony (which translates into a lot more happiness than you'll ever find with balance!). In today's episode I talk about how to set the right goals--goals that are aligned and achievable. We also dive into how Star Wars teaches us what we need to know about balance (yes, we do!).

There's nothing magical about January 1. But somehow, there's always a lot of pressure that comes at the start of the new year. We start setting big goals and resolutions for the year, often to find that the fire has gone out before the month is even over. Stop setting New Years resolutions--they don't work. Let's choose to set up our year for success instead using habits and routines, creating systems that insure that we live with purpose.

Customizing a productivity system to fit your life sounds like a lot of work, but it's actually much easier than you think.

We hear that word intuition and we think it’s woo woo, but the truth is: we all have intuition.

How often do you use the word “should” when thinking about your day? I should be doing this or I should stop doing that. Who decided what you should or should not do?

We play small because that’s how we’ve been raised by the world, by society–to be a good girl and play by the rules. But when we shy away from our power, we don’t step into our full potential.
