BURNOUT ISN’T 🔥

I’ve been talking to a lot of people recently that are unsure of how to get themselves out of the state their in. That state is one of exhaustion.

As leaders, we feel the pull of being accessible, of being the one people go to first, of being the one with the answer. This causes all kinds of problems.

Listen for the rest of the story.

Remember to treat yourself well.

INCREASE YOUR TEAM

I’ve started therapy, and it’s been fantastic. She is poking holes in all my arguments and challenging me in ways that I both need and am able to receive.

One of these ways is with my perfectionism streak. My therapist has given me a way to reframe failure that I’ve finally been able to hear and has helped me tremendously.

STAY IN YOUR LANE

I think we can all agree that even though the Rona has us living in uncertainty, there’s still a ton of stuff that is occupying our time and attention.

I’ve had some really interesting conversations recently about saying no (see our Dream Big Blog post from Wednesday for more info) and identifying purpose and calling.

Listen for more info on why saying no and knowing our calling is so important for our lives.

LIKE A ROCKET!

At what speed do you make decisions and then act on them? I’m sure you’re thinking, "This is THE existential question of ALL TIME!"

Heh, probably not. But it is incredibly helpful for leaders to know the speed at which they and their team make decisions. It helps inform how we do what we do.

I don’t think celebration is in my DNA. My family has never really made a big deal of birthdays, anniversaries, good grades, or graduations.

I WANT TO GO, GO, GO!

And the guy in front of me is going slow, slow, slow. So annoying.

We all run into (ha! hopefully not literally) situations where there are different motivating factors. On Saturday, I wanted to go (at least) the speed limit and the guy on the motorcycle in front of me chose to go 10 mph under the speed limit.

My less-than-best started to come out, but I realized in the midst of it that I had a choice.

Listen to see how we leaders can be our best in situations that leave us frustrated, anxious, or irritated.

SOMETIMES LIFE HANDS YOU A BIG PILE OF POO

For reforming perfectionists such as myself, there can often be this inner critic that claims that if I would have spent one more hour on a project, done one thing differently, or chosen a slightly different path, then things would have worked out fantastically.

Well, as leaders we know that we make choices that can turn crap-tastic without warning.

I GOT A SELFIE WITH SHAQ!

Many of you know my fascination with super tall people, like Shaquille O’Neal. Not only do I find it peculiar that someone could be so tall, but he’s also rather cheeky with his sense of humor and I appreciate that.

He, Mike Tyson, and Will Smith have been on Discovery Channel’s Shark Week this week facing their fears of sharks.

All humans have this narrative in our heads that tries to keep us safe, usually by convincing us that doing something risky is bad.

RAIN AND OUTSIDE YOGA DON’T MIX

Have you ever had the experience where you made a choice to take care of yourself or do something you’ve been putting off, and then it seems like the universe is fully against your plans?

Yep. It happens to all of us. And it stinks.

I signed up to do outside yoga in August, and last night it rained on us. A wet yoga mat isn’t helpful or comfortable. I wasn’t impressed.

But I had a choice in how I approached the rain.

SET AN EXAMPLE?

I’ve been pondering my calendar recently, wondering how I can be more organized and efficient.

Right now I’m color coding my calendar, which I love and fully acknowledge that it is super nerdy. Yet I had this sneaking suspicion that I can do better.

The thing that occurred to me on my walk tonight is that exercising control of my calendar is a choice. A choice!

And leaders need to set an example of what it means to make good choices.

When Bodies Go Amuck

One of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn (and am still learning) is that my body is part of me.

My body sounds an anxiety alarm when I’m ignoring my well-being. Recently my body has been talking to me in different ways, and I’ve had to notice how this conversation is different.

As leaders, we need to be aware of how our bodies talk to us so that we can lead with our whole selves and help others live well too.

IF IT’S TO BE IT’S UP TO ME

These are words I’ve lived by for most of my life. But the problem with taking these words at face value is that they foster pathological self-reliance and a refusal to receive help.

"If it’s to be it’s up to me" is no good when leaders try to do things alone because it can create massive anxiety.

IT’S TIME FOR A HARD REBOOT

Over the last two months my laptop and I haven’t gotten along. The laptop is only 18 months old, so it shouldn’t be having issues.

At the beginning of June, internet browsers wouldn’t open, Word took 15 mins to open, and nothing else responded to the mouse.

The laptop got so unresponsive that I had to give it to an IT friend to fix.

Since getting the laptop back, I’ve had to do a few hard reboots with it, where I hold the power button down for 6 seconds and then start it back up again.

Sometimes our lives get to the point where we need to do a hard reboot, and I’m at that place again...

STAYING SHALLOW LEADS TO EMPTINESS

One of the things that I noticed last month was that I was avoiding drilling deep into ideas with myself and my clients.

Thursday was different. Over about 40 minutes, I helped a coaching client look at her marketing from several different viewpoints.

I kept asking questions, asking "what else?" to make sure that she had everything she needed to create marketing materials that would highlight her business.

Sometimes we don’t drill deep because we’re afraid of what we might find. But staying shallow can leave us empty and unmotivated, and definitely doesn’t lead to transformation.

RUNNING WITH A LIMP

Last night I almost got caught in the rain again. Thunder was rumbling, so I decided to run-walk my way back the last 1.5 miles. Because I’ve had a muscle imbalance issue for a while, I haven’t been able to run much at all...maybe 4 or 5 minutes total, broken down into 1 minute increments once per week if I’m lucky.

Last night I ran about half a mile total partly with a limp. I’m sure I looked ridiculous and I’m not setting any land speed records here.

NECESSARY AND STRETCHING

I went for a walk tonight like I do most nights. And without thinking about it, I opened the door and sat in the driver’s seat to go home. But I knew I needed to stretch.

I used to be fairly flexible, not needing to stretch after exercise. Fast forward 20 years and not so much. I need to stretch, even though it’s uncomfortable and takes time that I don’t really want to spend that way.

It’s the same for leaders. We grow our businesses to the point that is stretching, uncomfortable, and requires more of us than we might want to give.

MINDSET SHIFT HERE I COME!

Mindset shifts are so helpful. Going from a limiting belief to a more expansive belief is freeing in so many ways.

Old ways of thinking create frustration and a searching that never produces results. We aren’t satisfied when trying to live in an old mindset.

We won’t find the acceptance, encouragement, value, framework, example, or meaning that we’re looking for. It doesn’t exist because we are here to create it ourselves.

Listen for more on the mindsets and how to live with more interior freedom.

BTW- one of the reasons I love coaching is because it starts from the perspective that we are whole and just need to do a bit of digging to have our truth revealed. I get to help people live into their own mindset shifts!

THE DAM BROKE AND IT WAS UGLY

I’m continuing the conversation from the Dream Big Coaching email blast about how noticing our feelings, even the uncomfortable ones, can be quite helpful in our growth.

The uncomfortable feelings include self-doubt, questioning our purpose, and lack of confidence in who we are and what we have to offer.

Too often we ignore or disregard the discomfort because we don’t know what to do with it.

RELATIONSHIP OVER SCHEDULE

This evening I had the great joy of seeing a dear friend whom I met in college. Our plans were quickly made less than 24 hours before meeting up for dinner tonight.

This is rather unlike me. My schedule is rock solid, unchanging, rigid. Yet I’ve been unlearning this practice of saying "no" and prioritizing my schedule.

Over the last 18 months I’ve been learning and practicing a new thing: relationship over schedule.

NAMING THE INNER CRITIC

Sometimes it’s helpful to name our inner critic. We can (with habitual work) separate ourselves from the voice in our heads that seems relentless in it’s desire to hold us back and be mean.

The inner critic is that voice that says
"You’re not enough."
"You’re not worthy."
"You don’t work hard enough."
"Your ideas don’t matter and are stupid."

Yet we have the ability to transform our inner critic with intentional practice.
