Welcome to Love It or Leave It, in this episode I talk about how we can influence our own transitions. Perhaps you are at the point where you might be thinking, am I ready to leave where I currently work? What else am I looking for as we head into the last three months of the year? What do I want to achieve?   I am fascinated by what it takes to really help people move through transitions, and I'm driven to really help people make changes effectively, but also be the change for other people. This has inspired the new shop coming to Love It or Leave It starting from October 5th, where you will be able to find support through your transition, whatever form that may take.   “You have to set yourself up for consistent success.” - Samantha   3.13 - The psychology behind getting stuck in our careers 4.17 - Where are you now and what are you looking for? 7.06 - How I want to support you beyond the book 11.02 - Giving yourself permission to make a switch 15.33 - Having more joy on the job 17.59 - Find out about the new Love It or Leave It shop   Resources:    >>>Read Samantha Clarke’s book - Love It Or Leave It: How to Be Happy at Work - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-Leave-How-Happy-Work/dp/1913068080 >>> Check out the new Love It or Leave It shop available October 5th at - https://loveitleaveit.co/    Connect with Samantha Clarke:    >>>Discover Love It or Leave It on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/_loveitleaveit_/?hl=en >>>Connect with Samantha on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/samanthaand_/?hl=en >>>Find out all about Love It or Leave It - http://www.loveitleaveit.co/ >>>Follow Samantha on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/clarkesl/

Love It or Leave It - Susana Velasco

On this episode of Love It or Leave it I had a juicy conversation with Natalie Lue who is an author podcaster and speaker, and artist at Baggage Reclaim. She is all about helping people pleasers, perfectionist and over thinkers to really declutter their emotional baggage. We talked about life, or what she calls Professor life, and how we can navigate some of the different experiences and lessons and challenges that we have. She shared so many insights around work; what happens when we find ourselves in unfulfilling work scenarios or working relationships? And if you are a manager or leader, what you can do to really start to take some time to learn your team and to learn them as individuals so that you can support them better? Check out our conversation, take some notes and start implementing to create some changes in your life today.   “The very things we are trying to avoid are the very things that contain our healing” - Natalie   Timestamps:   7.01 - How do we find the humour in the darkness? 15.23 - How to get to that space of surrender 20.31 - Sitting with the storm 29.08 - Resetting the equilibrium between who you are now and what you want moving forwards 35.58 - Our inner critic is not neutral 42.54 - Navigating proving and delivery as a manager   Connect with Natalie Lue    Website link - https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk/ Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/natlue/     Resources: (books, products, websites, other podcasts)    >>>Read Samantha Clarke’s book - Love It Or Leave It: How to Be Happy at Work - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Love-Leave-How-Happy-Work/dp/1913068080 >>>Listen to Natalie’s Podcast - https://www.baggagereclaim.co.uk/the-baggage-reclaim-sessions-podcast/    Connect with Samantha Clarke:    >>>Discover Love It or Leave It on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/_loveitleaveit_/?hl=en >>>Connect with Samantha on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/samanthaand_/?hl=en >>>Find out all about Love It or Leave It - http://www.loveitleaveit.co/ >>>Follow Samantha on Linkedin - https://www.linkedin.com/in/clarkesl/
