6 Convictions to Great Leadership
From a live webinar I recently I hosted, I shared the guaranteed ways to ruin your team as a leader and what to do instead along with the convictions that:
1. Our purpose in our organizations is to become a great leader that serves our people and our customers (no title required).
2. We must have the ability to draw others into the direction we desire for our team/organization.
3. We need to have the passion to believe what we are doing is right and the ability to convince others of the same.
4. We must have a continued desire to model learning and growth amongst our team and organization.
5. We must possess the qualities of a great leader including character, credibility, communication, and stewardship.
6. We must build a legacy for our team, our organization, and the clients we serve.

Authentic Conversations Week 3 Live
Over the last few weeks, I have been getting a lot of questions from colleagues, clients, friends, and even strangers in regards to how I am doing during the quarantine. I felt like now was a good time to share my answers, and help other people answer these wonderful questions for themselves. After answering them last week on a live webinar, I decided to share the audio with you here.
Here were the 8 questions I answered
1. What’s your life been like these last few weeks?
2. How have you found ways to succeed in the midst of trials?
3. How are you overcoming loss?
4. Have your habits and disciplines helped you, hurt you, or disappeared?
5. Who, or what, do you turn to when you have a bad day?
6. Do you need help? Can you offer help?
7. What are you building for the future?
8. What are some areas you are focusing on for growth?
Give this episode a listen and let me know how you answered them for yourself.

Screw Being Shy with Mark Metry
Mark Metry is the bestselling author of Screw Being Shy, the host of the Global Top 100 Humans 2.0 Podcast, a sought-after speaker, a Forbes contributor, and has been featured on Amazon Prime’s The Social Movement.
I had the pleasure of hosting Mark on the podcast and we dug deep into the reason for his book, and more importantly, why he is so passionate about helping others with social anxiety. We spent time talking about what social anxiety is, why it’s important to recognize social anxiety is a perception, the benefits of a great diet on mental health, and why fear is important when balanced appropriately.
Mark is a great guy and has accomplished so much already. You will find a ton of value in this episode so check it and let me know what you think.

He has served over 1,000 clients to date, been featured in Forbes, Fast Company, The Ladders, and The Muse, is a Certified Health Education Specialist (CHES), and an annual Disneyland Annual Passholder (this is important to him!).
Kyle and I had a fantastic conversation. We have been connected for some time and I have to say he is one of the most consistent people across every place I have engaged with him. I appreciate his passion for people, his joy for his work, and his commitment to do the best he can in everything he does. As we talked, Kyle shared some of the amazing ways in which he helps people find the best career for them (sometimes it’s within the company they already work at). Some of the other topics included:
Why giving advice is not the first job of a coach.
How his upbringing helped positively shape who he is.
The necessity of work/life balance.
Oh, and we dug into why he loves Disneyland so much.

Dealing with fakers, defining success, and more with RJM
I reached out to my network to share questions they wanted me to answer.
Here were the 4 I addressed.
How do we continue to use the language of optimism in business, particular as consultants, to gain new clients when it has been co-opted by scammers and fake gurus?
How do you define success?
With your experiences, what are you surprised that you didn’t know early on? Meaning, what’s something that seems super obvious to you now but wasn’t super apparent when you were early on in your career?
What is your opinion on when people say “It’s not personal, just business”?
Check out this latest episode and let me know what you think!
