New Ways of Being And Working

We've all heard about building more leadership presence. But what does that mean specifically?

Actions you can take if your confidence is faltering in your new role. You're not an imposter, you're just new!

Is it time to take some time? I put together a great 4-hour agenda for you to reconnect with yourself, and redirect where you're going. Grab a journal and let's go!

“We do this not because it is easy, but because we thought it would be easy.”

My kid was looking at Instagram over my shoulder and said, “You know, they always show the ride, but they never show the line. It’s only the fun stuff, never the wait.”

Have you ever woken up at 3 AM and started worrying? Then one worrisome thought blurs into a regret about the previous day, and then you remember an awkward conversation from a year ago…then suddenly you’re questioning your life choices in a state of panic and overwhelm? 

We find ourselves at the end of another year. And whatever you celebrate this season, these long nights are a time to rest, hope for light and longer days, and reflect on what has happened in the past year. Peace brings much needed clarity.

Like so many painful experiences, there’s opportunity bundled with the bad. Our lives have chapters we’d never expect. Plot twist is an understatement. Sometimes we’re the Director and sometimes we feel like an extra in the cast. Waiting it out on the sidelines hoping to stand out and be chosen.

Check in on how you’re showing up in your life. Check in meetings, at dinner, before bed. Are you clinging to life by your fingernails? Are you gripped with tension when in reality you’re simply sitting in a chair looking at a screen?

We change through our lives, and sometimes life changes us. But how do stay up to speed with ourselves? How do we continue to evolve?

Not in the old place anymore. But not in the new place yet? I get it. You're in the purgatory of "The Middle". Give yourself a break and stay the course.

Sometimes you come across a book that seems to capture what you know, but can expand your understanding and reframe your own approach. That's how I felt about this book.
