3 Ways to Sidestep Career Blocking Branding Moves - EP085

lundi 8 août 2022 • Durée 15:11

What projects do you want to be known for?

Do you want to be known as a leader or the go-to name for your dream project?

Are you sure about what you’re projecting when it comes to your personal brand?

It can be challenging to stay focused on who we are, so we project the right things in our personal brand while working on projects, paying bills, and raising our families.

But if you don't take charge of evaluating and solidifying your brand, who will?

And if you're not taking the time to check in on your personal brand, it can lead to a significant gap in how others perceive you and how you see yourself as a professional.

So how can you evolve your brand to ensure it aligns with where you want to go next?

On this episode of Career Confessions, I'm sharing two topics that have recently been a recurring theme in my coaching practice. I'm also sharing some personal insight into how something I visualized for over a year came to be and how I intentionally released my emotions about the end of one big project before beginning a new one.

I'll walk you through some insider information I shared with my group coaching clients and some advice I gave a private client about why you must advocate for yourself in your career and how you can do so in a way that feels organic to you.

Listen in as I share the 3 things you must continually evaluate and reevaluate for limiting factors in your brand. Plus, I offer some homework for my listeners to help you make sure your brand aligns with where you want to go next.

I have one private coaching spot open, and I'd love to take you to the finish line! But the only way to work with me is to —so fill out the form NOW!

How to Resolve Conflict Through Clarity - EP075

lundi 18 avril 2022 • Durée 14:04

How do you deal with misunderstandings?

Do you find yourself wishing you would have said something or worse, wishing you had said something else?

Do you shut down, zone out, and reach for the ice cream instead of moving through it and forward?

Sometimes a conversation makes us feel like our judgment is being questioned. Or maybe we’re having a discussion where we feel like we’re not being listened to, heard, or (my biggest pet peeve), feeling like we’re being dismissed.

We all have those triggers when we’re communicating with others that just seem to get under our skin and hang on long after we’ve said goodbye.

Sometimes, we try and brush the situation under the rug, thinking it’s best to just move on. But that technique for dealing with conflict can leave you feeling exhausted, reaching for the remote to watch something or mindlessly scrolling to zone out and put off work.

Conflict is a natural part of human relationships, but unresolved conflict can damage our relationships, leave us feeling powerless, and can even stunt our growth.

So, what can you do to deal with conflict in a healthy, empowered way?

Today on Career Confessions, I’ll walk you through the process I use for addressing conflict that allows me to understand both myself and the other person better, leaving us both feeling more empowered.

Listen to this episode to learn how to deal with conflict in a way that will help you show up better, and maybe even move you closer to becoming the person you want to be, in business and in life.

After you listen, don't forget to tag me to share your takeaways.

Key Takeaways

The first thing you should do when you find yourself in conflict

How to keep from jumping to conclusions that will only make the situation worse

Why putting our ego aside is the hardest thing to do

How gaining clarity can help you lead from a place of power and move forward

How being transparent in conflict can lead to stronger relationships How determining your personal pet peeves can prepare you for handling future conflicts

How to Take Ownership of Your Actions - EP074

lundi 11 avril 2022 • Durée 12:03

Where does empowerment begin?

It begins with taking ownership of our thoughts, decisions, and actions.

Are you happy with the ownership you are taking in your personal and professional life?

If not, when was the last time you did an ownership checkup?

Maybe you’ve had the feeling for a while that something is impeding your progress. Perhaps you’ve been indulging in more ice cream than usual, skipping workouts for marathon Netflix sessions, or arguing with your partner more than you would like. We all have those times when we realize we’ve stopped putting our best foot forward.

But have you taken the time to figure out what is driving your unnecessary stress and causing you to present yourself in a way that isn’t making you proud?

There’s a difference between just making yourself feel better for the moment and doing the things that are going to help you do better.

Zoning out to your favorite episode of NCIS makes you feel good, but the good feeling of that kind of stress release is fleeting. And inside we know that.

We are the owners of everything that happens in our lives, but we cannot fix what we don’t know exists. Maybe it’s time to have an honest conversation with the CEO of your life by taking a hard look in the mirror.

Today on Career Confessions, I’m sharing the 2 questions I ask myself to make sure I’m leaning into the things that will assure I do better and not just feel better.

Listen in to hear how you can take ownership of your thoughts and actions by seeking out the support systems that will put you on a solid path to better long-term outcomes and a brighter future.

How to Develop Your EQ to Elevate Your Career - EP071

jeudi 31 mars 2022 • Durée 14:26

What is the most important skill of a good leader?

Think back to the great bosses you have worked with. What qualities did they have that you wanted to emulate? Were they great at the technical aspects of their job? Did they have a good head for business or a high IQ? Or was it something more?

Being equipped with the hard skills necessary to perform your position is important. But other skills, like communication, collaboration, empathy, and adaptability, are equally valuable and should not be overlooked.

Those are soft skills. They include the personal qualities you bring into every boardroom. They are the traits that help you elevate individuals, empower teams effectively, and make a lasting impact.

We can always learn technical skills, and hard skills are ever evolving. Yet, a leader with a highly defined talent for communication or collaboration will always affect positive change in the work environment.

On this episode of Career Confessions, we’re going to take a closer look at what it takes to deep dive into improving your soft skills, so you catapult your career growth.

Let me be honest with you, it can be hard for us to recognize our own innate soft skill superpowers. And it can be even more difficult to determine the areas where we need improvement. Working on elevating yourself is not something that comes naturally.

Listen to learn how having the right coach in your corner can help you improve your technical skills while growing your soft skills so you can make a bigger impact.

Key Takeaways

Why technical skills will only take you so far in your career
How to become a leader that effectively solves problems

The key type of growth that pays the most dividends
Why soft skills are vital to workplace culture

Why it’s so hard to assess your personal soft skills
How to pave your own way by leaning into your unique interpersonal attributes

My strategy for unearthing your soft skill superpowers

jeudi 24 mars 2022 • Durée 23:11

Do you want to grow your career, but feel stuck? Do you find yourself walking the line between being challenged and being overwhelmed?

Over the years, I’ve learned that if I want to be successful in business, I need to work to understand myself and grow as a person. If I am not in tune with my thoughts, feelings, and intentions, I cannot show up as my best self to serve others.

On this episode of Career Confessions, I share my thoughts on the growing pains I’ve experienced throughout my career and the obstacles I’ve faced as I’ve elevated myself.

Listen in as I discuss the importance of thinking ahead, investing in yourself, and staying true to your dreams.

The difference between overwhelming yourself and challenging yourself

Why I have never thought about quitting, but instead, always strive to improve

Why we should all invest in ourselves long before we see the return on investment

The importance of staying true to your dreams even as your life evolves
