Octoryia Robinson, mother of 5, entrepreneur, author and podcast host knows how to Stroke the stakeholder’s in her life. She is proof that relationships are key to life. Octoryia shares how she has created the best life for herself, her children, and her teams through her connection and approach. Her “Co-Creation” philosophy to business will encourage you to lead your teams differently the second half of this year.

“I value connection over message” she stated in this podcast when it comes to being a mom and leader. We discussed tone, timing, and message. Her approach has created a “winning culture”.

Octoryia encourages you to get up and write each morning. You can with her and others. The writing group is for individuals with something to say or release. A previous podcast guest, Gary Barnes, said “Everyone should write a book in their lifetime”. Octoryia can help you. She owners a publishing company too.

This episode has so much value. I marked 14 key points when recording.

Do you find yourself saying YES to people then regretting it instantly? I am sure we can all agree that we say YES to please that person prior to taking a moment to consider what’s best for you.

Do you have time on your calendar to devote to that event?

Do you have the mindset or mental capacity to show up present without anxiety or stress that something else is requiring your time.

Typically, if we say yes it is because we care about that person or the actual event, otherwise, our first response would be let me check my calendar and responsibilities before committing.

Many of us have been trained to please others before ourselves. It we didn’t we are considered selfish. Over the years, we have all taken on more roles and responsibilities but do not have additional hours in the day to execute. This expectation of ourselves has led us to be unhappy, anxious, and frustrated. We fear disappointing others or FOMO. I recall for years, I said yes to every event, trip, meeting, and call to action. I wanted to be seen, heard, and acknowledged. I wanted to boost my network, company and ego. I also wanted to appear picture perfect. This mindset caused me to lose sleep, focus, and progress.

Recently, I have learned to say NO and put my time as priority. How do I do this and not feel guilty? I do the following.

1. When asked to meet or get together, I get clear on the WHY and desired outcome. I also confirm time needed to ensure I have ample time with the right mindset. If i have a deadline or another pressing issue, I say no and ask to schedule at a later time.
2. Setting work and personal hours to better serve my life.
3. Professionally, I try to confirm or hammer our details via an email or slack discussion to avoid the meeting completely.
4. Personally, I have found smaller quality gatherings are much better than the large groups. I do like the large groups because you get to see everyone but I have found that you don’t really get to connect with those individuals. I scheduled two - three dinners with my closest friends monthly. I also attend one gathering to show face.
5. Holidays can be tough and exhausting. I simply communicate my need for peace and celebration. I try to determine how and where I can spend my time without exhausting myself.
6. Taking control my health and need for rest. I have recently said no without explanation. I find it freeing and best for my mental capacity.

Pleasing people will leave you exhausted, resentful, and not appreciated. Consider how you can determine the right communication style for you to say NO in the future. PLEASE.

Can you relate with any of the below statements?

• Works 40-60 hours per week
• Don’t have time for movement or activity
• No time for self care
• Mentally exhausted
• Unhappy
• Living paycheck to paycheck

If yes, then this episode is for you. We spend so much time and energy creating the life we want to live but we are not living it.

5 Ways to prevent burnout and maintain balance:

1. Rest - Find time. It’s okay to lay around and do nothing
2. Hydrate - Discover what your daily water intake should be.
3. Fuel - Incorporate the rainbow into your diet
4. Movement - What part of the day would be best for 10 minutes of movement?
5. Mindfulness - resting the mind, journaling, meditating, reading, playing games, cooking, or painting are great options.

If you have balance, you will have more energy, purpose and money.

Have a dream vacation on your bucket list? Want to book the trip but you can’t because of time, money and your responsibilities? Book the trip.

This quickie shares how my husband and I took an elevated dream vacation this past May to celebrate 10 years of marriage.

I share how we funded the trip. I outline the savings plan, side hustle, and mindset. I had to say fuck the jones and have discipline.

Finding the right time is key. Consider your work and home life schedules. There is never a perfect time. Find the best time that works for you.

This experience will encourage you to trust the team and support system in place and within arm’s length. You can do it. So can they. You will learn how to delegate and trust like never before. This idea is scary but can be very rewarding and freeing.

This trip will provide peace, connection and love for life. Remember to live the life you are creating.

Let’s begin with the first five senses. This quickie is only 13 minutes and will provide hours of happiness if you listen. 

Basic things can make us happy. Don’t focus on the big picture or have too high of expectations at this point. Writing out our feelings and needs will empower us to focus on what simple things make us happy. Try to incorporate these items daily or weekly to increase your happiness.

This podcast will require you to think and write. Listen with an open mind and determine one thing per sense to achieve happiness daily. I suggest listening to it while enjoying tea or coffee or sitting outdoors.
