What if your life, and your business, could go from surface level, average, non-fulfilling to rewarding and filled with substance? 

Today’s podcast answers that question.

Self-awareness and introspection in identifying one's values, as well as recognizing and aligning internal and external values leads to deeper relationships, better decision-making, and a more fulfilling life.

Yet, most of us don't even realize what our values are. Our values were adopted, they got layered into our lives from very early on and we’ve not stopped to examine them, to see if they even fit us.

Today, Stephanie and Maren look at all of that AND go even deeper into values looking at both intrinsic (internal) and extrinsic (external) values, the difference between them, and why it’s useful to distinguish between them.

Many of us, as leaders, end up feeling empty and/or dissatisfied due to our culture’s focus surface, extrinsic values. When we take the time to identify AND align both internal and external values we end up with stronger teams and more balanced, harmonious lives.

  • 00:31 Deeper reflection on values
  • 03:04 Understanding Intrinsic & Extrinsic 
  • 10:53 Imbalance: is it the precursor to mental and emotional illness?
  • 14:41 Alternative to “win at all costs”
  • 15:44 Where would you start?
  • 17:46 Aligning external and internal values
