People are going to have opinions about us.

About who we are.

About what we're doing.

About what they think and feel about that.

And in our career or business, this can become a distraction.

Certainly we need to present ourselves to our stakeholders and communities in a way that isn't off-putting or offensive. In a way that is sensitive to others. 

But if we're no...

Sometimes people don't make sense.

They can commit to something and then not follow through.

They can say they want one thing and then do something completely opposite.

I think we're all guilty of this at times.

It's about our human brain and the reality of what happens if it goes unmanaged.

Sometimes we'll do things that don't make sense.

Which means th...

I recently lost both of my parents within a matter of months.

This happened after nearly a year where I (and my siblings) provided long-term care to my parents.

Which required me to be halfway across the country one week of each month.

Which started just after I began a new job. In a new Industry. In a hybrid work situation, requiring me to be in the office 3 days a week.

Which  was happening whi...

There are five types of Imposter Syndrome.

This is important to know because the first part of changing your Impostor ways is recognizing when it's happening.

So today we're building off last week's episode and we're exploring the different ways it can show up.

You might experience it one way. Or (like me) you might experience many (or even all).

Bottom line, you need to know ...

According to statistics more than 80% of us experience Impostor Syndrome. 

And for women that number is upwards of 90%.

It disproportionately affects high achievers. 

Given the fact that it's something most of us will contend with to some extent, I wanted to explore it.

So, on today's episode we're discussing what Impostor Syndrome is, where it comes from, how it shows up and how i...

When we're just starting our career, we can look at the leaders around us and fantasize about what it will be like when we have what they have.

The big title.

The big salary.

The big team.

We think it's going to be amazing.

We think our career (and our life) will have all this meaning because we'll have accomplished what we set out to do.

But the truth is by the t...

Today is Super Bowl Sunday in the U.S. and in honor of my Chiefs being in the Super Bowl (woo hoo!), I wanted to share a concept that I borrowed from the NFL. 

This is the way I think of my own career and the way I advise my clients, friends and team members to do.  

It's about thinking of yourself as a Free Agent. 

In the NFL that means being free to solicit offers from or sign with other NFL teams....

In life, it's a fundamental human need to feel like you belong. To feel a part of the group. 

That's true in our personal and our work life.

In our career, we get much of our work identity from what we do for a living. 

The company we work at. The team we're a part of.  

But there can be a downside to tribalism at work. And it happens when we use it to separate or exclude people fr...

Sometimes we get pushed off our path. By a job loss or an unexpected situation.

And sometimes we feel that subtle but persistent internal nudge that tells us the path we're on is no longer for us.

When we find ourselves at a crossroads, it's easy to get stuck. 

So on today's episode we're talking about transitions. Big transitions. That can happen at anytime but which happen for many o...
