Liza and I talk about stroking you, employees and friends. We are to take extreme ownership at some point and take a look within when things don’t go as planned. Creating time and space for yourself is crucial for finding balance in your life.

Liza breaks down how she uses her employees strengths to boost her team and business. We both manage teams and share how important knowing their personality traits and love languages are in the workplace. See the Enneagram link below.

Lastly, we talk about how important friendships are to have. Building the foundation before you experience a bump in the road is crucial. Surrounding yourself with those that share the same values is also important.

Liza encourages us to love authentically everyday. We can’t be everything to everyone. And don’t try. Do you and what feels right.

Avoid negative thoughts, people and environments. This is one of my four ground rules when it comes to deciding where to end or mend a marriage.

Avoid people that do not understand your story or situation. They have no clue what you have to gain or lose. They will offer non solicited advice that doesn’t apply to your life. Speak to those that have been on your journey only.

Avoid Negative Self Chatter.

Avoid rushing decisions to end your marriage. For the past, 3, 7, 10, or 20 years, you didn’t rush or end to know that you are now aware of your feelings and ready to face them, take your time to identify the key factors, triggers, issues and challenges. Take your time acknowledging your past.

Avoid having to know or understand every little detail. Focus on the big picture of your marriage. What value does it add to your life, family, and well-being.

Incorporate positivity in all aspects of your life.

You may need more than 3 minutes when it comes scheduling white space on your calendar or daily agenda. I suggest 30 minutes. White space is a necessity for positive mental and emotional health. It will provide you the energy you need continue taking care of you and others.

White Space is you doing NOTHING. I want to challenge you to DO NOTHING for a period of time. Allow your mind to wander.

I get you think you don’t have time but I bet you do.

How much time do you spend scrolling on your phone? 15 minutes a few times a day? That is potentially 60 minutes of wasted time and could be used to sit in silence with yourself.

When sitting in car line for 30 - 45 minutes, what are you doing? Could you be sitting there with your eyes closed and allow your mind to wander?

Do you ever arrive to your destination 15 minutes early? Do you jump on your phone or could you sit in silence for that period of time?

When you hit snooze, could you go back to sleep or lay there in silence with your own thoughts for 15 - 20 minutes?

We have the time but we fail to recognize our need for it. We are custom to giving all our time and energy to others. If you think about it, its pretty sad. I agree. Time to dry your eyes and take note of this idea and make time for YOU.

How much white space will you add to your calendar tomorrow?

I encourage you to make yourself a priority, NOW. Stop with the excuses. We are all tired of hearing about them and how tired you are.

Kristina and I talk about Stroking yourself, employer and spouse. She breaks down her journey to becoming successful with her career and love life. 

“I went on a lot of first dates and I realized it wasn't that I didn't know what kind of husband I was looking for or what kind of partner I was looking for. It was that I didn't know who I was and once I figured out who I was, I was able to find the love of my life. Now it was once I fell in love with myself. I was able to allow other people to love me”

“I realized that not only knowing what to do with your money, but your mindset around money and the energy that you have really is powerful, And once you can understand your relationship with money and how to get your money to work for you becomes so much easier.”

Tips that she shares:

• Never stop dating your spouse
• Build your people up and care about their personal development 
• Providing a space and time for employees to be heard is very important to building your team and company 
• Pick a word for the year 

Book suggestions: 

The Fifteen commitments of conscious leadership

Her dirty little secret is to have fun!

Embracing the journey can provide more happiness, purpose and fulfillment. This episode was inspired by the books Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance and Emotional Intelligence 2.0.

This quickie is only 7 minutes. Listen, share, and review.

By focusing on the journey, you can be present and be in a mental state of free flowing. Being present allows you to connect with those in your life, be engaged in conversations, and encounter the unexpected with a positive mindset.

When you consider your work, embrace the moments that make up your day. You will soon notice how fulfilling your work can be when you slow down. You will notice expressions, tones, and connection. Your relationships will become more meaningful too.

Live is short. Embrace the journey along the way to the destination. Your mental and emotional health will thank you.

Dr. Clarissa shares with us her frame work for changing our lives. We talk about the importance of culture and team work at the work place. 

When she hires someone, she sends them a “get to know you form”. She wants to know your coffee order, food choices, hobbies, best way to praise, and more. This allows her to show gratitude in a way that you will receive the message. Or surprise you if having a bad day or dealing with something personal. 

The framework:

1. Dream
2. Decide if it is worth it
3. make a plan
4. be brave
5. reflect

She also encourages you to lean into your why. 

Do you have a daily tool kit? We share what this means too. 

“Get out of your current environment for 20 minutes”, “phone a friend”, and “find time for your hobby, if you don’t have one, find one”. 

Book recommendations:

• Crucial conversations
• Dig the Well
