    I have some insider info for you. A secret tip, if you will.

    People sometimes hear about some habit I have and comment that they think I have superhuman discipline. Or commitment.

    And I’m shocked because so much of my life is centered around having as much freedom and free time as possible.

    Today and next week on the podcast, I’m sharing the two skills that have allowed me to build habits that look super impressive from the outside but feel easy and delightful on the inside.

    Embracing (sometimes ridiculously) small steps is this week’s episode.

    If you’ve wanted to build a routine, adopt a practice, or make a change of any variety, this episode will help you do it now, easily, no matter how many other things you’re juggling.

    Seriously.

    Thanks for listening.

  • Doing Other People's Jobs
    Feb 13 2025

    You’ve got a plan for your week, balancing multiple high priorities. And then something goes sideways. Something specific — someone else doesn’t deliver in the way that you expected.

    In this scenario and other similar situations, many people do something that I almost always coach against — doing someone else’s job.

    This means jumping in to take on more work to compensate for someone else’s mistake, poor performance, lack of interest, etc.

    Today we’re talking about how to be aware of when you’re taking on additional labor that isn’t yours, and what gets in the way of kindly asking others to take care of their own responsibilities.

    Thanks for listening.

  • Your Bassline
    Feb 6 2025

    Imagine that every situation you find yourself in, every circumstance in your life, is a song.

    What you think about yourself in relation to that circumstance or situation is the song's baseline . . .

    . . . the sometimes under-the-surface yet nonetheless powerful theme that shapes the entire song.

    Or in your case, how you experience the entire situation.

    Today on the podcast, I'm talking about this concept, which is the most powerful and important thing we work on in coaching

    I’ll give you tips on becoming more aware of your bassline. So you can have greater influence and authority over it.

    And, I’ll share a recent client story about a profound bassline shift.

    Thanks for listening.
