CREATIVITY * FEEDBACK * TEACHING * CURIOSITY * MINDSET

Today, I'm sharing one of my favorite people with you - Ernie Svenson! Join us as we dive deep into how embracing creativity can revolutionize your approach to problem-solving and career satisfaction. From unlocking your creative potential to navigating feedback and shifting perspectives, this episode offers invaluable insights for professionals of all kinds who are seeking fulfillment and success.

I can’t wait to hear what resonated - send me a voice note! 

Is there something you’d love some feedback about in your life or career? Maybe something you want me to answer in a future episode? If so, let me know!

Here are just a few key takeaways and quotes from this episode - listen for more!

👉🏽 Key Takeaways:

Creativity isn't limited to traditional artistic pursuits; it's an essential aspect of effective problem-solving in any field.

Feedback is a valuable tool for growth and innovation, guiding us towards better solutions and outcomes.

Embracing change and shifting perspectives can lead to greater career satisfaction and personal fulfillment.

Recognizing what you can control and letting go of what you can't is key to reducing stress and maximizing productivity.

Success doesn't always follow a linear path; embracing serendipity and allowing for career shifts can lead to unexpected opportunities and fulfillment.

👉🏽 Episode Quotes:

"All creativity is saying, 'What if I try this?' But really all it is, is the first step on the way to feedback, right?" - Ernie Svenson

"Learning how to teach was something I liked doing. So I would give talks. I liked that. But in talks, you're there for an hour... and then if you try to teach people, you'll invariably learn through feedback, not failure." - Ernie Svenson

"You control what you think about. As much as you can, and that's a full-time job... focus it on the thing that you actually stand a chance to control." - Ernie Svenson

"Nobody's trying to trick you. You're trying to trick you, right? You're the only one who's going to suffer from choosing the worst thing or the most difficult question." - Sheila M. Wilkinson

DIVORCE * FAMILY MEDIATOR * KEEPING KIDS FIRST * TWO UNIT FAMILIES

In Episode 63, I bring in Sarah Pfeiffer, a family lawyer in Louisiana. We’ll discuss the challenges of the legal profession, the impact of high-conflict divorce cases, and the need for a more compassionate approach to divorce.

Evolution in Legal Practice: Recognize the potential for the legal profession to evolve, allowing attorneys to shift from high-conflict cases to more collaborative and mediation-focused approaches.

Children First Approach: Acknowledge the impact of divorce on children and consider options that prioritize their well-being, moving away from adversarial courtroom battles.

Choosing the Right Professional: When contemplating divorce, carefully select legal professionals who are mediation-friendly and considerate of the broader family dynamics (like Sarah!)

👉🏽 Episode Quotes:

"You don't necessarily need a bulldog... I can negotiate and get more for you or work together to get more than you could in a litigated situation." - Sarah Pfeiffer

NEW YEAR RESOLUTIONS * GOAL SETTING * MOTIVATION * DISCIPLINE * PERSONAL + PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT * JOYFUL LIVING * HUMAN DESIGN * GOAL SETTING * UNCONVENTIONAL CHOICES

In this Episode 62, we’re diving into an unconventional perspective on life and resolutions! I’ll share personal insights that include avoiding mainstream trends to navigating a year of podcasts and books, so listen in as I uncover the secrets to sustainable change, the distinction between self-care and self-soothing and self-love, and the power of tiny steps in reshaping your journey.

It's time to embrace a unique approach to 2024, blending motivation, discipline, and the joy of embracing your individuality! Listen in to join the journey of breaking norms and crafting a remarkable year. I can’t wait to hear what resonated - send me a voice note! 

Is there something you’d love some feedback about in your life or career? Maybe something you want me to answer in a future episode? If so, let me know!

Here are just a few key takeaways and quotes from this episode - listen for more!

👉🏽 Key Takeaways:

Embrace Your Pace: Recognize that personal timelines matter more than societal pressures. Progress is progress, regardless of the speed.

Self-Love vs. Self-Soothing: Distinguish between self-care and self-love. Elevate your well-being by setting boundaries, making aligned decisions, and focusing on what truly matters.

Baby Steps to Sustain Change: Avoid the crash and burn of grand “new” year resolutions. Implement tiny, sustainable goals year-round for lasting transformation.

Building Support Structures: Understand the importance of having the right structures in place to support your decisions and create lasting change.

👉🏽 Episode Quotes from Sheila:

"Motivation wanes; discipline can be consistent. It's the tiny steps and structures that turn our lives into what we want them to be."

"Embrace the uncertainty, get excited about yourself, and focus on the link between wellness and professional competency in 2024."

"We overestimate what we can do in a day and underestimate what we can achieve in a year."
