What comes easy or naturally to you?

We so often make ourselves wrong for having the strengths that we have. In a world where many people are overtired and don't have the energy they want, we need to STOP doing this.

The more we learn to play to our actual strengths, the easier it is for us to feel when we're outside of them.

A good place to start:

Optional: Take the StrengthsFinder test.

When we allow ourselves to be who we are, live in our strengths and from our values, things become easier and we find flow.

"I don't think it's okay that we're out here being helping professionals and that sometimes people have to leave and recover. What are we doing as individuals, and as an industry, to make sure that's happening less and less?" - Caryn

That is a large part of today's conversation with Nicky Hammond, The Coach's Coach.

Are we making space to listen and are we open to feedback -- even, and maybe especially, when it comes to how we are doing our work?

This is a call to practitioners to step more into the role of powerful, grounded leadership... to slow down... and to focus more on internal goals and success than external ones.

"We co-create experiences. And, we can provide people with exactly what they asked for - and more. The impact we can have, as coaches, is so fun!" - Nicky

Listen to the episode and decide:

- Do you want to be an ethical coach?

Then, take that next, right step. Just one. You do not have to do everything all at once. 

Let us know if you're feeling this call to responsibility, as well! You can find us both on Instagram @caryngillen and @nickyhammond_coaching.

"The thing wasn't the thing at all. The process was EVERYTHING."

When you've been in business a long time, you try a lot of things. You fail at a lot of things. And, you succeed at a lot of things as well.

Earlier on in my career, I wrote a book. I hustled and did all this stuff that nearly killed me to get it out in the world. But, I did it. I figured it out and I pulled it off. It was a best-seller in its category.

Last year, I felt it tugging at me to put it to bed. It no longer felt like me and my work. So, I removed it from Amazon. I took it away and I don't think you can get it (in any version) anywhere anymore. It was over, just like that.

I'm still so proud of it and everything it taught me! But, it didn't fit anymore so I stopped dragging it around.

I felt like this was an important thing to share because so much in this business we see the crescendo of everything - getting bigger, louder, better, more, more, more. But, sometimes, there is also a de-crescendo, where things get quieter and less important.

I love when things are done. I love starts and ends.

So, I'm curious... For you, is there anything tugging at you? Anything asking to go to bed or be done? Because it's okay. It's okay to just be done with stuff. It's okay to quiet things down.

I'd love to know, what's ending? And, why is that perfect for you? Only you get to decide. 

Tag me or DM me on IG and let me know.

What if work was nourishing and energizing - a place where humans were not resources and people genuinely loved being there? That's the shift we're making. 

And, if you cannot get on board with that, then your company/your business becomes obsolete because the change IS happening.

In this episode, I talk to Organizational Health and Teamwork Specialist, Faith Clarke about building spaces where people feel like they can thrive. 

We get into:

- This idea of the "traditional workplace".

- Managing ourselves to create safety and trust.

- Restorative work vs scaling.

- Human-centered work.

"Every cycle of disruption creates something new. And, I think, we are living in a cycle of disruption right now - where people are acknowledging that they can be different from the people around them, things can be different... And, they are going to pursue spaces where they're honored. 

All of us, together, can create more of what's needed." - Faith Clarke

"Launching is a start date and an end date, where you offer something in the middle. It's a specific set of days where you sell something - that's it."

There can be a lot of drama around launching. And, a lot of us throw ourselves under our own bus and make it really hard on ourselves when we're launching. 

It doesn't have to be that way.

Listen in for some helpful tips on mindset and setting yourself up for success.

Today, we're talking to joy extractor and amplifier, Simone Grace Seol. Simone is creating a revolution in how life coaches market online--teaching them how to get fully booked by putting love first, leaning into their messy genius, and not being afraid to get a little weird.

Simone says, "when you're in your joy, you're inviting others to connect with you in your most powerful state." We are all drawn to joy, it's infectious.

This conversation is about:

- what joy is

...and more!

You will feel more joyful just hearing Simone talk about joy and why it's so important. 

Today's challenge (after you listen to the episode): Think about the next courageous decision you need to make to create space for more joy in your life--more spaciousness, more boredom, more creativity, more play. What if you just made the decision right now that you're going to allow for that to happen? 

I don't know about you but I want to live in a world where we're making decisions that feel like we're a little bit on fire. ;)

DM or tag us on Instagram with your takeaways from this episode (@caryngillen and @simone.grace.seol).
