In this episode of the Balance Boldly Podcast, we step behind-the-scenes on why the boldest are embracing their inner lazy overachiever to create true balance personally (and) professionally.
Taking a personal dive by addressing feedback received from the BBP listeners who have expressed a desire for more of my professional insights, a new complimentary podcast will be airing soon and I couldn’t be more excited. Podcasting since 2012 before it was “cool” has taught me a thing or two about embracing all your parts, the new videocast style show is my way of sharing one more of mine out loud.
The BBP aka Balance Boldly for Ambitious Women in Business (and a few brave men) is here to stay! The TLO aka The Lazy Overachiever is our new addition, and you’ll want to subscribe to both.
What to expect in today's BBP episode:
- Introducing the new podcast: who are The Lazy Overachievers and why should you care
- Why being “intentionally selfish” is not about being led by your ego
- The importance of honoring your rest as much as your productivity
- BTS about the TLO show and how it will differ from the BBP
- How vulnerability and honesty still matter in the 21st century
