Sit down and get comfy for another 'How Was Your Week?' episode with Erin Hatzikostas and Nicole Licata Grant. Erins takes her turn to open up this episode and discusses a personal journey, family, and stresses with work. Erin discusses one of the big things that held her back in her career. They also reflect on the coaching and personal work that Erin is coaching Nicole on; Nicole 2.0. They share a bit from their full day together where they focus on developing, analyzing and taking action on Nicole's vision for a bigger life. All of this goes down while Nicole tries to avoid the spider's nest that is in her hair and the plight of an angry baby spider mob invading her home. Nicole also shares the revitalization of her younger rocker-self by visiting an Alice In Chains concert and finds herself mulling over some old feelings with new perspectives.  It's been another hectic week, and we can't wait to share it with you!

"I'm pitching (our first b CAUSE live event) over drinks, so I feel like I'm already over 50% of the hump." "It's wierd becayse all the things you said to me are actually coming true."   "You want to defend yourself. You want to be like, 'No, what I'm doing is just fine. Look at my degrees and my paycheck. The reality is...all of the stuff you're saying about creating this next version of yourself is actually real."   Don't think 'I don't have a team, I need a team to do this' - you can do that (leadership) with anyone...a friend, a colleague."   "When there are people who will follow you to the ends of the Earth and back, it's mutual, it's so mutual."   "Why do you care what he thinks?"   "If I'm running around doing all the work as a leader, what can everyone else do? It's hard to step onto a moving train."   "If you have to operate behind a curtain, then you can't be excellent."   It's about turning words to action, not making excuses. Look I'm busy, everybody's busy. It's about finding those two minutes."   "I spend more time putting 2-minute tasks on my to-do-list than I actually do to complete the task."
