Ride Along with Change—Using Science of Course

It's our 100th Episode!
You are crushing it at work. You’ve curated an impressive A-List team and they are hitting on all cylinders. You couldn’t ask for a better work scenario. Then you get acquired and new leadership steps in and there are whispers about a reorg. You’re starting to get really uncomfortable, and BAM! it happens. The team is dismantled, new players are weaved in and you’re freaking out because it doesn’t look anything like it did before. Change is hard.

Whether it’s at work, as an entrepreneur or in your personal life, nothing stays the same and being able to navigate the stress and panic that rides along with change is a critical skill for success.

In this episode, we’re going to explore the science of change and how to cope in order to stay sane.

In this episode, you’ll learn: 

Why change can feel so hard and the science behind it The four stages of change:Denial: The disbelief it's even happening, avoiding situations reminding us of the possible change so we don't have to face itAnger: The feeling of anger washes over each of us, this is where blame comes in, blaming our friends, our boss, our coworkers, the world Exploration: What could the outcomes look like, what happens if I went along with changeAcceptance/agreement: Understanding and getting on board with the new reality.How to navigate change so you can have more resilience and use it to bolster your professional success Give Yourself Space to sit, to absorb and to processKeep a semblance of a routine to produce false sense of comfortFind places to take back control, where can you feel like you have a sayExamine the possibilities, what can happen if you do or don't move forth with changeFind the meaning: It doesn't happen for a reason but if you can find meaning you can process better

“Exposure changes us -- yes -- that’s why it makes sense to push ourselves out of our comfort zones so we can be exposed to new things. Frankly, in my opinion, this is the best kind of change.”
