This week I'm diving into the conversation on your beliefs, which ultimately frames a confirmation bias if you're not aware of it. Join this short episode as we dive into beliefs, examples of confirmation bias, and ways that you can approach what it is you're trying to figure out. Plus, I'm sharing a new favorite Audible book, Everything Is Figureoutable by Marie Forleo that I am absolutely loving right now!

This week we're talking about decisions. Every decision we make carries a sense of weight, vulnerability and strength. You have to walk with courage to continue in a decision you made or surround yourself with people who will support you in the decision you've made. Decisions not only come in all shapes and sizes, but they also come with a cost. In order to gain something, your decisions are going to cost you. 

Join us this week and consider who is walking alongside of you in this challenging season. Better yet, take a moment to reflect on the people who have "passed the baton" in your life as they support you in bursts throughout your decisions in the past.

In this episode, I'm connecting with a sister and dear friend, Tiwi Oye. Her role in leadership inspires us today on the topics of humanity, affirmation and acceptance. We're having a conversation about what it means to be intentionally embracing the unique pace of life. (Yes, something you might feel deeply connected to in this season.) Plus, we're talking freedom, creativity and what it means to truly embrace internal and external affirmations.

Being willing to listen to others rather than dismissing them is critical in this season. And honestly, this just might become the lesson that changes the thought patterns you've built about being dismissive on a variety of topics.

What do you know about the art of storytelling? This week I'm diving into the seven principles of the Storybrand Framework by Donald Miller. If you're not a brand strategist, you can still apply these seven steps to your personal life. Sharing a compelling story is critical to the success of your personal and professional brand.

Psychologists say we have 70,000 thoughts a day, 490,000 a week, and over 25 million thoughts a year. What on earth are you thinking about? During this season, you’re likely working overtime. Are you mindful of your thought process? Are you mindful of what you’re thinking? 

Think about your relationships. Your Attitude. Your motivation. The energy you cultivate. What is your thought process like as it relates to each of these categories?  If you’re not communicating your thought process, your goals, and your direction within your inner circle, you may feel like you’re struggling to be held accountable. If you’re carrying around expectations of success, watch Mike Todd’s sermon on “Rip Up the List.” I’m sharing key insights from Goals by Zig Ziglar. Plus, watch more about your stress from Yale University. Read more about why we are all struggling to focus during this pandemic.

Are you sitting in a season where you’re struggling to see the big picture? You're not alone. Big-Picture Thinking from How Successful People Think by John Maxwell includes: 1) Don’t Strive for Certainty 2) Learn From Every Experience 3) Gain Insight From a Variety of People and 4) Give Yourself Permission to Expand Your World. Listen in for the opportunities that Phil Ogilvie was faced with as he approached integrated Big-Picture Thinking and feedback into his journey with Silt Wine Company.

Ultimately, we are in a season where we are ALL learning about “the dip” and when something isn’t working, we have to learn to quit and try something new. This concept comes from Seth Godin's book, The Dip. The Dip will help you understand how to fail fast, fail often and continue to try something new if your current idea, hobby or business concept isn’t working. There’s courage in quitting something that isn’t working and also having strength is surviving the dip - a challenge or set back in front of you. If you’re working on launching a program or an idea in your life, we also talk about a minimum viable product (MVP) from The Lean Start-Up.
