We either leave something for people or we leave something in people. I am uber uncomfortable having hard conversations too. I understand. But no progress has ever been made without awkwardness. We move forward together.....or not at all.

We apologize for EVERYTHING! Habitual I'm sorry's can create a power imbalance. Here are some ways to stop saying I'm sorry so much.

Sorry, but stop saying sorry | LinkedIn Are we overusing the phrase "sorry?" Workers are arguing yes, and as a result "sorry has lost its meaning."

Find Your Why… Think about the ways in which your daily outcomes might serve a greater purpose.
Maybe it’s cultivating an environment for your employees to grow and thrive, not just a place for them to clock in and take home a paycheck. Or maybe it’s incorporating your contribution into your business day. Making money feels good, but there’s nothing like seeing joy on another human’s face after you’ve given them something they truly needed. This is what I love most about Workplace Wellness.

When I think about the mentors in my career I think about how much faster I learned what I needed to know, because if their coaching. Does your organization have a mentoring program?

Three Tips about Self Doubt before a job interview:
- Expect self-doubt to arise. When you have an interview for a new job, especially if you're excited about it, know that your brain will offer up self-doubt.
- Choose not to listen to self-doubt. It is born out of nervousness and is not necessarily true.
- Proceed, despite self-doubting thoughts.

Dean Rusk was the longest serving American Secretary of State. He served during the Cuban missile crisis and the Vietnam war, so no stranger to conflict and sensitive negotiations. He learned that when we listen sincerely, the other party is less likely to resist our message. How much more persuasive could we be if we stopped trying to assert that we are right and shifted our focus to listening sincerely?

If a team runs itself for 6 months without a manager. …
If a department runs well for 6 months with an acting manager….
Then you shouldn’t be hiring; you should be promoting 🙌🏼

In the holiday season, there can be a lot of pressure. And when you're not feeling strong, it can be especially overwhelming.
Here's some good advice to get through the season with more ease.
1. Awareness - Check in with what’s important to you during this holiday season. What do you really want to do? Who do you really want to be with? How do you want to feel during the holidays? Focus on the how you want to spend your time, and how you’d like it to be.
2. Connection - Instead of spending time on social media comparing your holidays to others, create a gratitude journal you can reflect on, things you’re thankful for, even the small things. Gratitude improves your mental health and can reduce stress.
3. Permission - Let go of trying to please everyone and give yourself permission to say no. There's no such thing as a “perfect” holiday. Take care of yourself during this season and politely decline anything too stressful or things you don’t really want to do.
4. Balance - Find balance during the season. Instead of beating yourself up for eating too much, eat what you love but watch your portion sizes. Sugar, salt, and fat can impact our energy and motivation, Drink more water and eat healthy fruits. Choose to smile, even if you don’t feel like it. The act of smiling can uplift you and change your experience.
