It is so easy for all of us to get stuck in the daily routine, and in our comfort zone. We forget that we can constantly be learning and growing!  To Level Up, we can look at the different areas of our lives and think: what next? What is the next challenge or goal we can set for ourselves to go to the next stage?  It’s equally important to remember that leveling up is not only in our business, hobbies, etc., it is also in the way we show up. How we interact with others, the thoughts that we have.  Our connection and interaction in the world are a great indication of leveling up. If you are a natural people-pleaser who always put people first, and you start to have boundaries, and more self-respect – that is leveling up!  Anything that you do to go that is challenging and uncomfortable is leveling up.  In essence, the secret to leveling up is always keeping in mind that there is room for growth and learning – and embracing that journey!  ‘The biggest room in the world is the room for improvement.’ Instead of shying away because of this, we can choose to love the journey, the learning, and the growth that comes through!  Access the FREE Masterclass on ‘INNER TRANSFORMATION for OUTER SUCCESS’ here: https://bit.ly/3I636MI VIDEO of this episode: YouTube VideoABOUT Katie Stoddart: Katie Stoddart is an award-winning, international, transformative leadership coach.

When we think of energy, we often think of the physical aspects of energy such as sleep, nutrition, and exercise. These are fantastic ways to be more energized. But there are not enough!  Our thoughts have a HUGE impact on our energy levels. If we are constantly beaten down by negative thought patterns and ideas, this will affect how we show up every day. By changing how we perceive the world around us, and our beliefs, we will directly influence our energy levels.  Simple hack to have more energy in one second: think a happy and grateful thought. You don’t even need to move from where you are.  The second way to have more energy is to work on our emotions. Directly correlated with our thoughts, emotions have a tremendous impact on our energy. Learning to master emotional intelligence, and management is amazing!  External people, places, work all impact our energy too. Being mindful of how we spend our attention, and what we choose to let into our attentional space makes a big difference too.  Energy comes from a combination of physical factors (NEST: Nutrition, Exercise, Sleep, Time Out (Meditation)), mental & psychological factors (thoughts and emotions), external factors (people, places, work, music, books, etc.). To take your energy to the next level, do an audit of your energy, and start to actively manage these different factors!  Access the FREE Masterclass on ‘INNER TRANSFORMATION for OUTER SUCCESS’ here: https://bit.ly/3I636MI VIDEO of this episode: YouTube VideoABOUT Katie Stoddart: Katie Stoddart is an award-winning, international, transformative leadership coach.

Innovation is the creative process that enables change and transformation in our business. It is a powerful method that can be used for scaling, leveling up or radical change in an organization.  One model explains innovation as: Generating ideas, Problem-solving, and Implementation.  To generate ideas, we need to use different perceptions, brainstorm and tap into creativity. This is the fun, exciting part of innovation.  Problem-solving is where clarity is key. Without a clear understanding of the problem at stake, we cannot be innovative.  Implementation is when the innovation really happens.  Some people are reluctant to change. Others are overly-enthusiastic about change. Somewhere, we need to meet in the middle and find the right middle-ground for innovation: avoid reluctance & stagnation, but also be mindful not to constantly innovate for the sake of it.  There is radical innovation and incremental innovation. We are often tempted by radical innovation when sometimes, we only need to incrementally innovate.  Innovation can be a very powerful way to shift things in our business. We must be mindful of how we use and apply innovation in order to reap the best results!  Access the FREE Masterclass on ‘INNER TRANSFORMATION for OUTER SUCCESS’ here: https://bit.ly/3I636MI VIDEO of this episode: YouTube Video ABOUT Katie Stoddart: Katie Stoddart is an award-winning, international, transformative leadership coach.

We are always taught that success is external. Yet, in order to be truly fulfilled, we need to tap into our inner worlds. External success comes from inner transformation. Inner Transformation is directly related to identity.  Our identity is constructed from experiences, memories, what people tell us, our filters…  To tackle any new goal, we need to learn to transform our identity.  To change our identity, we can begin by noticing our thought patterns, our beliefs, our conceptions around our abilities… As Tony Robbins says: ‘the past does not equal the future.  Incrementally, beginning to shift how we view ourselves can have a huge impact on our identity and our self-perception.  Once we start to trust and believe in ourselves, things begin to shift around us.  Inner Transformation is the key to tapping into our potential, to find freedom and joy in our life. If we are dependent on external results, we will never be satisfied. Yet, inner transformation can both provide the inner peace we need AND help us to achieve our external goals! It is a win-win! Access the FREE Masterclass on ‘INNER TRANSFORMATION for OUTER SUCCESS’ here: https://bit.ly/3I636MI VIDEO of this episode: YouTube VideoABOUT Katie Stoddart: Katie Stoddart is an award-winning, international, transformative leadership coach.

How can you be a transformational leader? What does it take to inspire others to go to the next level?  The term Transformational Leadership was first coined by James McGregor Burns. He explains that transformational leadership can be thought of as: "leaders and followers make each other to advance to a higher level of moral and motivation." There are four pillars that will make you a transformative leader.  1. Intellectual stimulation: Providing others with the freedom, creativity, independence and autonomy to ensure that they can tap into their potential. It is the opposite of micro-managing.  2. Connection: Building rapport and connection with your followers. This can be if you are the CEO of your business, or a thought leader. People need to feel connected with you for you to have an impact on their work.  3. Motivation: Having a compelling vision that your followers buy into, and that also drives them. Sharing that vision and motivation with your team.  4. Inspiration: Having the self-leadership skills so that you can be an inspiration to your team and they are inspired to go the next level, be their better selves etc.  These four pillars of ‘transformational leadership’ enable you to be a greater leader, and also to be more inspired and motivated in your daily work. It is a virtuous cycle. Inspiring others, being inspired. That is what transformation is all about!  Access the FREE Masterclass on ‘INNER TRANSFORMATION for OUTER SUCCESS’ here: https://bit.ly/3I636MI VIDEO of this episode: YouTube VideoABOUT Katie Stoddart: Katie Stoddart is an award-winning, international, high-performance coach.
