Episode 111: Money Can’t Buy Happiness…Or Can It?
April 25, 2024 00:00 - 16 minutes - 15.8 MBIf we want to increase our happiness through money we should find ways to make more of it so we can buy more of the things that will make us happier, right? While reasonable enough, that doesn’t seem to work very well. There are plenty of miserable millionaires and billionaires. “Mo’ money, mo’ problems.” The critical link between money and happiness is learning to focus on the ways we spend our money rather than devising ways to accumulate more of it. Sounds simple, right? Yeah...
Episode 110: Habits are Subject to Tendencies
March 08, 2024 00:00 - 13 minutes - 13.1 MBToday we dig a little deeper into our habits and the importance of leaning into our tendencies to ensure we commit to the habits we want to achieve, start them effectively, and maintain them efficiently. If you didn’t read the previous post, Building Better Habits, I highly recommend you do so in order to get a good understanding of habit formation and how to maximize your results. Gretchen Rubin explains in her book, The Four Tendencies, that most people align with one of four t...
Episode 109: Building Better Habits
February 29, 2024 00:00 - 15 minutes - 14.6 MBWell, it’s February and we are long past Blue Monday. That is the third Monday of January. And it’s the day that most New Year’s Resolutions die of abuse, neglect, or abandonment. And what I mean by that is typically by that third Monday, most folks have either had so many “cheat days”, missed so many days at the gym, eaten pizza instead of greens, not written their blog post, or have completely forgotten they even had a dream in the first place. (And yes, I’m guilty of all of these...
Episode 108: Reflecting on the Year: Because Who Doesn't Love a Good Mood Swing?
December 29, 2023 00:00 - 13 minutes - 12.5 MBAh, the end of the year—the perfect time to reflect on the rollercoaster of emotions that was the past twelve months – the accomplishments and the hardships, the celebrations and the setbacks. It’s all in there. And you’re a hard-working, ambitious professional, so you’ve probably got a lot to look back on. And you should. In order to continue to make meaningful progress, you need to know where you were back then and where you are right now. Because armed with this information, y...
Episode 107: TBT-Giving Thanks and Showing Appreciation
November 23, 2023 00:00 - 4 minutes - 4.33 MBYou’re excited you don’t have to go to work today, because it is Thanksgiving Day. (If you’re lucky enough to work for an organization that is closed today, you get a chance to relax and enjoy time with family or maybe just bathe in some well-deserved “me-time”.) Whatever your scenario, remember to take a moment to pause and give thanks for all the beauty and bounty in your life. Wishing you a wonderful, bountiful Happy Thanksgiving!

Episode 106: The Other AI - Part 2
September 14, 2023 00:00 - 10 minutes - 9.74 MBIn our last coaching session, we began our journey into the other AI – Appreciative Inquiry. If you recall, Appreciative Inquiry is the method of solving problems with a strengths-based approach, which employs a 4D Cycle – Discover, Dream, Design, and Destiny. And if you also recall, I took the liberty of changing the last phase from Destiny to Dare, because it is a more active approach to solving problems and achieving the results we seek. In the previous episode, we explored t...
Episode 105: The Other AI - Part 1
August 22, 2023 00:00 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MBWe’ve all heard of AI (Artificial Intelligence). But there is a different kind of AI that can have profound effects individually and professionally in our lives and in our workplaces. I’m talking about Appreciative Inquiry. “What is this”, you might be asking. Well, let me explain a bit of the background and then we’ll explore how to use AI as a shortcut into a more appreciative work and life existence.

Episode 104: Summer Travel Plans? Hire a Coach
July 14, 2023 00:00 - 8 minutes - 7.74 MBHave you ever wondered what a life coach, an executive coach, or a leadership coach does? Do they consult, mentor, train, guide, counsel, cheer? What is it that coaches actually do? Well, different coaches do different things and some of those I’ve just listed. You may have also heard that coaches don’t have any of the answers, but they do have all the right questions. Yeah, it’s kinda hard to imagine paying someone to just sit there and listen and every few minutes ask an “empo...
Episode 103: Robots Are Still Just Tools
May 26, 2023 00:00 - 15 minutes - 13.9 MBIn the last episode, we talked about the history of automation, computing, and artificial intelligence. We’ve come a long way from Hephaestus and Pygmalion. And we’ve seen computers get the upper hand when it comes to games like chess and Jeopardy. But what comes next, and how do we cope with change in the age of disruption? The great news is you can be a part of this disruption. In fact, you should make it a point to purposefully be a part of the disruption. Your future as an ent...
Episode 102: Robots Are Just Tools
May 24, 2023 00:00 - 9 minutes - 8.46 MBThe robots are coming! The robots are coming! People have been saying this for decades. And while the robots have slowly been taking over our workplace, our kitchens, and even our parenting duties to some degree, nothing will be more transformative over the next five to ten years as AI and ChatGPT. You’ve probably heard or read a fair amount about AI and ChatGPT over the past couple of years and certainly in the last few months. For those who are uninitiated, let me give you a th...
Episode 101: Breaking the Laws of Stuckness
April 07, 2023 00:00 - 9 minutes - 8.46 MBYou can only steer a moving vehicle. Wait, what? Yeah, that’s right. You can only steer a vehicle that is actually moving. That’s just science. Basically, according to Newton’s Laws of Motion, an object at rest remains at rest, and an object in motion remains in motion at constant speed and in a straight line unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Guess what you are in that equation. Yeah, you’re the unbalanced force. If you’re still a bit confused (or you prefer a tangible...
Episode 100: Impostor Syndrome: A Hilarious and Completely Made-Up Condition
March 03, 2023 00:00 - 11 minutes - 10.7 MBHave you ever felt like you weren’t qualified to do your job? Like you're not really sure you’re cut out to do the work and someone else who’s smarter could be doing a lot better right now? Or if you’re honest with yourself, you’re pretty sure you just got lucky in the interview? And you know, you just know that someday soon, your boss will realize they’ve made a big mistake because you are way in over your head and have no idea what you're doing? Well, congratulations! You may ha...

The vagus nerve. It might just be the most important part of your body that you’ve never heard of. Well, I’m sure some of you have, but most of you are maybe wondering, “What the heck it that and why have I never heard of it?” Well, don’t worry, because all will be made perfectly clear in next few minutes. Full transcript can be found ...
Episode 98: It's Moving Day!
January 22, 2023 00:00 - 11 minutes - 10.4 MBPack up all your troubles because today is moving day! It’s time to move from your current state of being to the one you’ve been hoping for, and maybe even dreaming about. Maybe you’re wallowing around in the wasted space of lethargy. Maybe you’re enduring the massive burden of overwhelm trying to balance the demands at work and at home. Or maybe you’re stuck in the gripping fear of moving into the challenging and uncomfortable space of that new business venture you’ve been contemp...
Episode 97: Treating Trust Like a Broken Bone
January 16, 2023 00:00 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MBSome things just come naturally. And they can be done with a single action. Throwing a ball, kicking a ball, cooking an egg, reading a book, delivering a speech, delegating a task, or giving feedback. Ok, maybe all of those don’t come naturally. But they can all be done with a single action. Other skills take time to develop and hone, like throwing a strike, scoring a goal, making an omelet, writing a book, or motivating someone to positive action. And then there are behaviors o...
Episode 96: A Better Way to Goal Achievment
January 02, 2023 00:00 - 9 minutes - 8.34 MBGoals, goals, goals. (Cue the Motley Crue nightclub anthem.) As humans, we tend to seek adventure and improvement. And in that, we continuously strive for the next level of achievement to attain our next goal. We set goals, our bosses set goals, the worlds of measurement and quality demand that we set goals. Heck, if we’re not setting and achieving goals, people consider us slackers and unsuccessful. But is achievement of goals really the best way to measure our success? . . . F...

His name is Joshua Freedman. Josh is the author of six books including the bestselling At the Heart of Leadership and he is the CEO and co-founder of Six Seconds Emotional Intelligence Network.

Episode 93: How To Do Gratitude
November 23, 2022 00:00 - 12 minutes - 11.4 MBLast time we unlocked the secrets of gratitude. And though many interesting ideas and research came up, I think I might have left you on a little bit of a cliffhanger. Typically, I present some actions or behaviors on how you can execute the ideas presented, and I didn’t do that, so I feel like I own you one. Today we explore some of the ways to “do” gratitude. But before we get into it, if you haven’t already listened to the previous episode Beyond Gratitude, then I encourage ...
Episode 92: Beyond Gratitude
November 19, 2022 00:00 - 8 minutes - 7.92 MBIt’s November and here in the US, that means Thanksgiving. A time when we give thanks for all that we have and all who we know and love.

Episode 91: You’d Better Whys Up!
November 07, 2022 00:00 - 8 minutes - 7.72 MBYou've probably heard of the 5 Whys Method. It's the exercise that has you ask 5 “Why” questions to help you get to the root cause of a problem. We typically use this method of questioning for troubleshooting issues, quality improvement, or process analysis. It goes something like this: We are behind schedule with updating the training program again this week. Why? Because we don’t have time to make the updates to the training program. Why? Because it takes a long time for u...
Episode 90: Dealing with Quiet Quitting
October 14, 2022 00:00 - 1 hour - 8.66 MBBy now, you’ve probably heard the term “quiet quitting.” It also goes by the possibly more accurate and certainly more comical term “acting your wage.” Though these terms are new, the idea is not. We’ve gone through decades and decades of people doing their jobs. Nothing more, nothing less…just doing the job they were hired and get paid to do. And we, as leaders, should be grateful for that, not disappointed in their behavior. After all, we lured them in with a specific job descrip...

Let’s face it, no matter how wonderful life is, we all have days that aren’t sunshine and unicorns.

You wake up late, you have to skip breakfast, you run into heavy traffic, aaand you’re late for your important meeting. Ugh. Why does it all happen at once? Let’s face it, no matter how wonderful life is, we all have days that aren’t sunshine and unicorns. And that’s fine, because if all of our days were filled to the rim with awesome, amazing, and out of this world exp...
Episode 87: Unlocking the Door to Done
June 10, 2022 00:00 - 14 minutes - 12.9 MBYou know that feeling that comes with completion of a task or a project? Yeah, that rush of competence and confidence. Feels good, right?

Episode 83: Changing Pains
March 01, 2022 00:00 - 10 minutes - 11.7 MBChange. Sounds painful, right? What about growth? Does that sound painful? Well, to some of us, growth does sound painful. In fact, you’ve likely heard the phrase, “growing pains.” Funny thing is, we never use the term “changing pains” which would be much more appropriate, since most us hate the idea of change. And we really dislike having to go through the stages of change. So, if all growth is, in essence, change, and we are ok with the term “growing pains”, let’s just repl...

Episode 81: Stealing Happiness
January 13, 2022 00:00 - 12 minutes - 14.2 MBHappiness is one of those things we all need, we all seek, and yet sometimes (oftentimes) we struggle to find it. We search and search and search. We look in all the right places. We try positive thinking, morning affirmations, self-help, self-care, setting and achieving goals, planning and going on vacations, and all the other things that are supposed to make us feel better. Well, here’s the thing, dear listener. We’ve been looking in all the wrong places. . . . Full transcript c...
Episode 80: Giving Thanks and Showing Appreciation
November 25, 2021 00:00 - 9 minutes - 5.26 MBOften, we feel so rushed, so anxious, so busy we forget to look up and see how good life really is. We take for granted all the skills and talents we possess. We take for granted all of the people who help us each day achieve what we would not otherwise. We take for granted those who supported us when things looked hopeless or so far away. We even take for granted all the world provides including sunlight, warmth, water, food, shelter, and so much more. Full transcript can be ...

November 18, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 8.73 MBYou’re getting ready to close business for the day and you’re feeling a little sluggish. You’re not terribly tired, but you are feeling like you could have brought a little more something to your staff, your meetings, your customers. You didn’t lose any sales or make anyone cry today but you can’t quite put your finger on what it was that was missing to make it a more meaningful and satisfying day. Was it the two donuts for breakfast? Was it the not-so-healthy lunch you scarfed do...
Episode 78: Feedback Is For Narcissists
November 04, 2021 00:00 - 6 minutes - 7.48 MBYou’re finishing up a presentation and you feel like you could have done better. Sure, things went pretty well. You didn’t pass out or throw up at the front of the room, but you know it wasn’t your best work. So afterwards, you ask a couple of colleagues for some feedback. Of course, they regale you with praise and congratulations on what a great job you did. Not exactly what you were looking for, so you ask again. “Come on guys, give me some feedback on what I could have done be...
Episode 77: We Can Do This, If...
October 21, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 8.15 MBYou’re in a meeting with your team and you’re delivering some news that will likely not be well received. You’re not going to be able to have the annual company dinner party this year because the current budget cannot cover the costs. After the groans and eye rolls begin to subside, you go on to deliver even more bad news. Needless to say, the meeting does not elicit any positive or motivating vibes…at all.

September 30, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 8.14 MBYou’re watching a video of a vendor pitching their latest product, but the audio is about a half second behind the video. You’re slightly put off by the misalignment, but you can handle it. It’s kind of like watching a poorly dubbed kung fu movie from the 70s, but not nearly as entertaining. But as it continues, it becomes super annoying to watch and listen to because the timing is so far off, and quite frankly, you’re losing interest in what they are selling. After about 53 sec...
Episode 74: Business Plays Offense, Defense, and Special Teams
September 09, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 8.47 MBIt’s fourth and long with just two and a half minutes left in the fourth quarter. You have the ball on the fifty-yard line and you are behind by three points. What do you do? Not an easy decision. But think about what got you here. Which players were instrumental in bringing you this close to victory? Which players will get you in the win column? And do they play offense or defense? Or do they play on special teams? No matter how you break it down, all players and teams are critic...

August 13, 2021 00:00 - 10 minutes - 12 MBYou’re anxiously anticipating getting everyone back in the office.

Episode 71: The Words We Use Say a Lot
July 29, 2021 00:00 - 3 minutes - 10.6 MBYou’ve asked one of your direct reports to see you in your office. It’s about a recent mistake they’ve made and you want to provide some feedback and maybe a little coaching. They enter the room sheepishly and slump down in the chair opposite your desk. You don’t want to beat around the bush, so you ask, “What the heck happened with the Smith account?” They remain quiet and then softly reply, “I thought it was the right thing to do.” You are getting a little hotter now and shoot ...
Episode 70: Beware of Your Strengths

You’re probably also thinking is, “Why do I keep making these same mistakes? Why is this so hard all the time? Why don’t I know what I want and how to get it?” These are great questions!

June 24, 2021 00:00 - 11 minutes - 16.1 MBHave you ever wondered how you started the bad habits you currently have? Whether they are smoking, drinking, sweets and snacking, or doom-scrolling on social media, they all started innocently enough. But after some time with them, you begin to realize, they are not moving you in the direction you desire. In fact, they may very well be moving you away from what you want and where you want to go. You’ve probably tried to rid yourself of these nasty habits, but it’s hard. You just d...
Episode 65: Lists are for People with CRS
June 16, 2021 00:00 - 10 minutes - 13.8 MBHoney! Do you know what time my dentist appointment is? No. It’s your appointment, not mine. Don’t you keep a calendar? Well, no, not for everything. Just the important stuff. And your dental health is not important? Well, it is, but… Sound familiar? I hope not, but many of us go through similar experiences daily. Maybe not with dental appointments, but as humans, we think we are smart enough to remember stuff. I mean, we only use 10% of our brains, right? We have TONS of space ...

May 26, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 10.4 MBYou’re at the end of your day and you’re feeling pretty low energy. Not necessarily exhausted, but just run down and lackluster with your performance today. Sure, you completed that tough task, finished that punishing project, or successfully navigated that complicated conversation.

It’s really gnawing away at you, and...

Soon enough, your friend is back in the conversation, but he is clearly not up to speed on what you’ve brought to the conversation. You’ve seen this happen before, and now you start to take it pe...
Episode 62: Confidence is Overrated
April 22, 2021 00:00 - 7 minutes - 10.6 MBYou’re about to step on stage to speak before five hundred people. You’re nervous. You’re sweating. You’re not feeling very confident in your ability to deliver to this many people from the bright lights of the stage. And so you pretend to be violently sick and rush off the stage hoping people will understand. You blew it. You choked. You just didn’t have what it takes to close the deal. You lacked confidence. People say that confidence is important and it empowers people to do thi...
