Powerful Leaders Define Success for Themselves First with Karen Mangia
There's a balance in leadership success between being nimble and controlling the right kind of controllables. Karen Mangia is that leader who has found personal and professional success because she decided to prioritize — and control — what that looks like on a daily basis for her.
You'll hear in this interview how Karen was letting other people's definitions of contribution, meaning, and boundaries drive her. And it wrecked her body, mind, and spirit. Lucky for us she found her way out and even used the pandemic as her reset time. She has changed her relationship with her career and invites you to do the same.
Our episode brought tears to my eyes and I hope it touches you in a similar way with these lessons:
- Saboteurs will hold you back if you keep listening to them.
- Success doesn't mean more, more, more.
- Commitment to success can be toxic.
- Blending in to fit in will cause you to lose yourself.
- It's not other people's responsibility to meet your needs.
- Do you have an addiction to activity? Do you know your body's warning signals when it's time to slow down?
- The difference between dopamine happiness and joy
- Set priorities to do your best work and communicate to those you work with.
- Divest before you invest.
- You always have choices.
- Why you need to stop asking others for approval
- Busy is a belief
- You only need 10 minutes a day to define success for yourself.
