Although we can't control what kind of phone call we'll receive first thing in the morning, nor the content or the tone of the first email in our inbox, we can choose how to react to it. Triggering messages and negative feedback will cause an emotional reaction; that doesn't mean they'll drive our behavior. Choosing greatness is about choosing our focus intentionally and carefully; we decide what's relevant and what we should worry about.

This week, we'll learn from Christina Curtis' brilliance. The Thought Leader, Founder, and Author of "Choosing Greatness" joins us to discuss leadership, emotional reactions, personal and professional relationships, and greatness. Christina is the President, Founder, and Master Coach of Curtis Leadership Consulting, where they combine neuroscience and psychology to enhance leaders' trajectories, productivity, and performance.

Throughout our conversation, we learn about Christina's background, passion for human behavior, and emotional reactions. We talk about habits that hold us back and actions that move us forward, the importance of choosing what to focus on, and purpose-driven work.

Additionally, we talk about how to keep leaders motivated, accept failure as part of the process, choose the energy we bring to places carefully, and much more.
