Your Badass Journey

I've been thinking about the effectiveness of leadership lately, and I recently read a Forbes article titled "Why Leadership Development is Still Stuck in the Dark Ages."

In this article, Chris Pearse wrote about how the old methods of developing leadership are losing their effectiveness because they do not focus on how you lead yourself. This showed up at just the right time for me, so I wanted to share it with you too.

Today I want to explore one of the BIG questions that comes up a lot in my work: What's next?

How do you uplevel their life and career, all while finding the right support structure and avoiding burnout?

A critical aspect of growth is that it's difficult to navigate on your own, and that's really why coaching exists in the professional world, in the fitness world, or any other area of life. And coaching is becoming so prevalent in so many different arenas because it is the fastest way to jump into action towards whatever it is you're trying to achieve.

I found myself asking, how do I grow as a leader? How do I maximize what I'm doing now, but also continue to learn the avenues of business that I have not mastered yet?

And what I've found is that there's no better way to do it than walking alongside and with others who are seeking the same and are willing to stand up and support each other through it – and that is how I define Masterminding!

Today I get into the kinds of masterminds that offer the most value, how you can assess whether a mastermind is right for you, and how you can give and get the most out of your mastermind experience.

It was complete happenstance that I had the opportunity to work with today's guest Dan Papandrea – and, really, his whole career was happenstance.
