In this episode of Determined to Succeed, host Dawn Mullarney, the Unique Connector, continues her insightful conversation with Nancy Kalsow in the second part of their three-part series. Nancy introduces the framework of her upcoming book, Get REAL, diving deep into what each component—Reflect, Engage, Align, and Lead—truly means.

Nancy shares how Get REAL is more than just a book; it’s a toolkit for personal and professional growth. She walks listeners through the four sections, each consisting of four chapters, designed to help individuals explore and implement strategies for continuous development. The discussion begins with the importance of Reflection, highlighting various ways to reflect on the past, present, and future. Dawn and Nancy explore how this process helps in recognizing personal growth and setting the stage for future success.

The conversation then shifts to Engage, emphasizing the value of active participation in life. Nancy explains how engaging with yourself and others through listening, asking questions, and observing can lead to valuable insights. She underscores the idea that advice, while well-intended, may not always align with one’s unique path.

Moving on to Align, Nancy discusses the importance of using the information gathered through reflection and engagement to make decisions that align with one’s true self. Dawn shares how this practice has helped her in various aspects of her life, including learning to delegate and saying no when necessary.

Finally, they delve into the concept of Lead, focusing on leading as a verb rather than a title. Nancy presents her formula for leading with purpose: Passion + Patience + Perseverance = Purpose. This segment encourages listeners to take action aligned with their passions, reinforcing that leadership comes from embracing one’s gifts and sharing them with the world.

Tune in to discover how the REAL framework can guide you toward a more authentic and fulfilling journey. Nancy's book, set to launch in October, is sure to be an inspiring guide for anyone looking to embrace their uniqueness and lead with purpose.
