How do you manage “it all?” How do you anticipate meetings that haven’t even been discussed yet? How do you know what to accept, what to decline, what to move, who to invite?
I’ll tell you one thing, despite what you may hear it’s not by being psychic!
You have to communicate with your executive clearly, have an understanding of how they work, and know what questions to ask.

In this episode, I am joined by Della Douglas, a highly respected administrator at Proctor & Gamble, an Ambitious Admin Academy Member, AND a Basadur Profile Facilitator. She has a gift and passion for helping others discover more about themselves and their teams and I’m so happy to have her on the show!
After learning from Della about the types of Basadur Profile results, I feel a bit at ease understanding why most of the executives I have worked with have frequently asked me to dodge requirements or bypass red tape. They are GENERATORS.
Listen to hear Della share what the Basadur Profile is and exactly how it can help you as an assistant create synergy with your team.

In this episode I am joined by psychologist and counselor Vassia Sarantopoulou, who is an expert on perfectionism - something I know many of us can relate to. I know personally I have felt the gut punch of making a horrible mistake at work and then subsequently holding myself to complete unrealistic expectations out of fear and perfectionism. In this episode we’ll learn from Vassia what perfectionism really is, where it comes from, and how we can combat that inner critic that is telling us we cannot fail.

In this episode I am joined by Helena Field, Founder of Action Wellbeing. A few years ago Helena hit a major wall brought on by burnout and now she's on a mission to teach others how to be WELL at work. As a recovering people pleaser myself I have a long history of putting my own well being behind other’s needs. It can be SO hard to say no, to take time off, to identify what you actually need in order to feel well and then take ACTION. In this episode I ask Helena how to do just that.
