Start your day with clarity! As leaders, we have countless things on our mind: things we need to do, things we’re not doing, problems we need to solve, new exciting ideas––all jotted down in that worn out mental notebook we keep in our heads.

But, sometimes leaders and entrepreneurs simply need to step away from the mental clutter––sometimes we don’t need the notebook, we just need a sticky note––a simple reminder along the way to help us gain clarity and control of our business.

That’s why we created a new FREE resource called The 261. As you may know, there are 261 work days in the calendar year. So, we have mapped out the entire year with daily micro thoughts and micro actions––sticky notes––to help keep the ball moving forward in your personal life as a leader and for the sake of your business.

One skill of a great coach is the ability to ask helpful questions instead of providing answers. Few people embrace this skill as well as author and business coach, Steve Chandler. In this episode, Steve shares his journey of becoming a coach, the importance of being curious, and best practices for selling yourself as a coach.

He also touches on what coaches should do when they find themselves in a season that seems to offer little in return for their time and effort. This is a conversation every business coach needs to hear.

Leaders are not immune to believing that life happens to them. It’s often called the victim mindset. This can affect everything from work, to relationships, to the way we communicate. But, as our good friend, award-winning speaker, self-awareness specialist, and communications expert, Michael Allosso reminds us, we have agency with our happiness.

Michael shares how theater and leadership have taught him to set objectives for every life situation and how doing so can put you in control of the way you show up as a leader and as an authentic human being. This is a conversation every leader needs to hear!

As an entrepreneur, you probably often ask yourself, “What’s next?” That’s why on System & Soul, we like to bring you guests who are asking the same questions and leaning into the uncertainty. Today, we’re honored to have Jaime Villalovos on to discuss how she has navigated her what’s “next question” after moving from a small Montana town to become a successful entrepreneur––despite limiting beliefs and various obstacles along the way.

Jaime is an entrepreneur, philanthropist, author, wife and mother of 4 who is an expert in creating systems that allow her to focus the majority of her time on growing herself and her people. She shares the important role mentorship plays in success and growth, and the tension between wanting to venture into new businesses or focus on her current business.
