There's a lot of talk around being an effective leader. It's a conversation that's been going on for so long. Throw in the COVID19 Pandemic and quarantine, and what do you have? A lot of things have shifted. The question is: as a leader, what should you be focusing on?

In this episode, Mehreen and Alexis talk about what it means to be an effective leader. They talk about respect and empathy.

What do you think is the key to effective leadership? What are some mistakes that leaders tend to make? And how can you support your team as you construct your business?

Have you ever been authentic and vulnerable towards your team? We challenge you today to be honest and sincere and to take accountability for your own mistakes so that you can reach out to the rest of your team and receive their support. This is just one of the ways you can see influence and gain respect of others.

In this episode, Mehreen and Alexis dive deep into the 7 high-level characteristics of a leader. We talk about vision, motivation, service, empathy, creativity, demanding, and management. Tune in to find out what it takes to be the leader who can take things to new heights.

Some of you might think that some of these characteristics are obvious, and some not so much. For example, you might think you know everything about vision, such as the ability to determine where the team currently is, where it can go, and how to achieve the goal. But vision has more to it than it sounds. What else is there to vision? In the same light, how do the high-level characteristics differentiate a good leader from a great one?

What high-level characteristics do you already have as a leader? What elements do you need to work on? I invite you today to sit down and determine how you can take your leadership to new heights and how this will impact your team.

One of the things that we need to understand to achieve our dreams and goals is to find where our core values fall. In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen talk about Establishing Your Core Values. When we don't pin them down, and fail to honor them, our mental, emotional, and physical states suffer. This is the consequence of not behaving in alignment with what is true for us.

So what are your core values? What do you stand for? This can be different for different people. Some of these values could be family, freedom, security, loyalty, intelligence, connection, creativity, and humanity.

Many people struggle with finding their purpose. They battle with clarity in what it is that they want to be doing with their lives. Are you one of them?

It's time to change your life. In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen sit down and talk about the commitment to become a better version of ourselves—to create a better future, not only our own, but especially for our family. What does that look like? What do you need to know to make changes that change your life for the better? How do we get started and move forward quicker with making these changes?

One indication that you know it's time to change your life is confusion. Confusion about where you are and where you want to go in life. Feeling as though your efforts are not yeinding the results you want and you don’t know what else to do. Gaining clarity is the foundation to building the life you want.

If you're not clear on what and who your identity is, you won't be clear on what direction you want and need to go in. If you haven’t gone in-depth with your vision, then you haven’t even begun.

This episode is all about a topic that applies to many areas in our lives—whether it's in relationships, both personal and professional, business risks, or just making the correct change for a healthy lifestyle—we can all relate to it. This episode's topic is all about the fear of commitment. What does it look like, and how can we overcome it? How can we finally start taking action?

One of the most significant drawbacks or challenges about the fear of commitment is that it keeps us where we are—stagnant and small. It stops us from taking the action that we need to grow, develop and reach new levels in our life.

Did you know that you can leverage failure to take yourself to the next level? In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen talk about how we put so much meaning into the world fail or failure. Although it often holds us back, ultimately, we can use it to win. You may feel as though the world is holding you back from taking action or from doing something that you want to do but what if failure could be leveraged?

What does it mean for you to fail? Does it mean you're not worthy? Does it mean you're incapable? Does it mean that you're not strong enough? You might be surprised that it doesn't mean any of those things.

In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen talk about how mindset leads to success—precisely, a growth mindset. What does that look like for someone who is in leadership? Where could people get stuck with the fixed mindset, and how can they get out of it?

Starting with motivation, Alexis begins the episode by saying that sometimes inspiration is challenging. Just starting something new—whether that is a project or just daily tasks—motivation can be tough to summon up. But when you have a growth mindset—meaning you are open to recognizing that there is potential in anything you do—then there is opportunity there.

In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen sit down to sort out the age-old debate: nature versus nurture. They’re going to expand into human traits and general characteristics and how they are formed. What is the difference between a growth and a fixed mindset?

One of the schools of thought regarding personality is that it's considerably associated with a person's intelligence and emotional quotient. There are specific characteristics that we are born with—it's just who we are. Or perhaps these characteristics were shaped by our very early experiences? What if we just carry them through, and they develop into our adult tendencies and personalities?

Sometimes, it can be tempting to stay inside a space where we control, and nothing surprises us anymore. It feels warm and cozy, and sometimes, you need that. But this can also be a terrible tendency that can trap us in a place where there is no growth. In this episode, Alexis and Mehreen talk about the comfort zone. What is it?

Sometimes, the comfort zone is a place you retreat to in tough seasons, where there are extenuating circumstances that occur, and you need to recharge or feel good before taking something new on. But if you want to grow and do things you've never done before—whether it be starting a new business, a new career, or starting a new relationship—then getting out of your comfort zone should be the first step.

Have you ever gotten stuck before? How long are you supposed to stay in the comfort zone before your move on?
