In this Workday Playdate, Erin sits down with Lori Woodley-Langendorff to unpack a leadership truth we don't practice enough: emotional intelligence isn't a “nice to have” — it's essential. Lori is an acclaimed author, educator, and expert in social-emotional literacy (SEL) who co-founded the non-profit "All It Takes" with her daughter, actress Shailene Woodley. Drawing from Lori's 30-year career as a school counselor (and her lived experience as a parent), this conversation bridges the gap between personal growth and professional leadership, reminding us that the workplace has officially changed… and our emotional skills need to catch up.Together, Erin and Lori explore emotional intelligence (EI) and social emotional literacy (SEL) as learnable, trainable skills, not personality traits you either have or don't. Lori introduces her SEL Muscle framework, a practical, no-fluff approach to building emotional resilience, strengthening communication, and leading with both connection and accountability. The result? Healthier teams, better relationships, and leaders who can handle overwhelm without passing it down the chain.Inside This Episode:Emotional Intelligence at Work: Why EI is foundational to modern leadership and personal growthSEL Is a Muscle: How social emotional literacy strengthens with intentional practiceConnection + Accountability: Why you need both to build trust and credibilityEmotional Awareness: How noticing feelings early prevents stress, burnout, and breakdownsThe SEL Muscle Framework: Practical tools for emotional resilience and clearer communicationModeling the Way: Why leaders must “walk the talk” emotionally, not just strategicallyCuriosity Without Judgment: How this one shift transforms relationships at work and homeWho This Episode Is For:Leaders who feel the emotional weight of their roleManagers navigating overwhelm, conflict, or disengagementParents and professionals juggling accountability with compassionPeople leaders ready to strengthen emotional resilience and communicationAnyone who wants to lead with more awareness and connectionYour FreebieYou've tried the color-coded calendars, the habit apps, and the “this is the week I finally get it together” pep talk… and it still doesn't stick.

This week I'm joined by Lori Woodley-Langendorff, Co-Founder of All It Takes, author of SEL Muscle Mastery (& mother to Shailene Woodley!) —to unpack how social-emotional literacy moves us from autopilot to intentional living. We explore why self-regulation is the foundation of resilience, how to teach SEL as a practice, and what smartphones and AI are doing to our capacity for connection and critical thinking. Lori shares a grounded definition of happiness as a calm inner safety that persists despite chaos.

This week, Linda McKissack shares what she learned from All It Takes is a Goal by Jon Acuff. She dives into the complexities of goal setting and the importance of stepping out of one's comfort zone to achieve personal growth. She emphasizes the need for clarity in goal setting and the dangers of remaining in a comfortable but unproductive state. The PDF she mentions can be found at the end of the Episode Guide

Sign up for our newsletter! https://drchristiangonzalez.com/newsletter/ We spend years teaching kids how to read, write, and memorize facts. But almost no one teaches them how to feel. This week on Heal Thy Self, Dr. G sits down with Dr. Lori Woodley, a counselor, author, and nonprofit founder who has spent 30 years working with kids, families, and schools. Her message is simple but life-changing: the most important skill we can teach kids isn't math or grammar. It's emotional intelligence. Because here's the truth: If a child can't name their feelings, they can't regulate them. If they can't regulate their emotions, they can't build confidence. And without confidence, they grow up wearing masks, hiding their fear, doubting their worth, and drifting through life without direction. In this conversation, Lori shares powerful insights for parents, educators, and anyone healing their inner child: The single question that instantly builds trust: “What do you need right now?” Why the #1 parenting mistake is trying to “teach a lesson” instead of listening. How kids actually feel the energy adults try to hide and why hypocrisy destroys trust faster than anything. Why confidence is the foundation skill for every child, and how emotional literacy unlocks it. The danger of power struggles and how to replace them with collaboration and respect. How triggers from our own childhood show up in parenting, and why conscious reflection matters more than perfection. Why kids are more autonomous and aware than we think and how to honor that without losing healthy boundaries. How emotional intelligence is a muscle that gets stronger with practice, for kids and adults. The story of Lori's nonprofit All It Takes, co-founded with her daughter, that's bringing these tools to schools, educators, and families around the world. This isn't just a parenting conversation. It's about building the kind of emotional literacy that shapes resilient kids, healthier families, and even stronger communities. If you've ever wished your child or even your inner child had more confidence, resilience, and self-trust, this episode could change everything.

When was the last time you thought about your emotional fitness? Just like physical muscles need regular exercise to stay strong, our social-emotional skills require consistent practice to serve us when we need them most. But here's the thing - many educators are trying to teach SEL without first developing their own emotional literacy.   This week, I'm joined by Lori Woodley-Langendorff, a 32-year veteran school counselor, co-founder of nonprofit All It Takes, and author of SEL Muscle Mastery, for an honest conversation about managing our emotional responses as school leaders and how this social and emotional foundation is the bedrock that makes learning possible.   Join us on this episode to discover how vulnerability and emotional connection unlock learning in ways that control never could. Lori and I examine why SEL often fails when treated as compliance rather than literacy, and she shares how teaching SEL skills transforms not just student behavior, but educator wellbeing.   Find the full episode show notes and transcript, click here: https://angelakellycoaching.com/405   Get in touch with me:  https://www.facebook.com/akellycoaching/ https://www.instagram.com/angelakellycoaching/?hl=en https://www.linkedin.com/in/angela-kelly-robeck-57774835

Speed reading might sound impressive, but research shows that slowing down can actually improve comprehension, retention, and enjoyment. In this opening segment, we explore why reading at a slower pace could be the real key to getting the most out of your books and articles. https://www.bustle.com/p/7-reasons-slow-reading-is-actually-a-good-thing-because-being-a-speed-reader-is-overrated-73092 On average, people juggle about 22 goals at any given time — but chasing all of them often leads to frustration and burnout. My guest, Jon Acuff, bestselling speaker and author of nine books, including All It Takes is a Goal (https://amzn.to/3PtSiOF), shares a fresh, motivating approach to goal setting. Learn how to identify the goals that truly matter, let go of the ones that don't, and build momentum toward the ones that can change your life. “It's raining cats and dogs,” “go cold turkey,” “know the ropes” — we say these things all the time, but rarely stop to ask where they originated. Caroline Taggart, longtime publishing professional and author of Humble Pie and Cold Turkey: English Expressions and Their Origins (https://amzn.to/3ZazBTw), takes us on a fun journey into the surprising and sometimes bizarre backstories of the phrases we use every day. Winning arguments isn't easy — but there's one simple strategy that dramatically improves your chances. In this closing segment, I share the key insight from Mike Nichols, author of The Lost Art of Listening (https://amzn.to/3ErzkSy), that can help you argue smarter, connect better, and maybe even change a few minds.

In this engaging conversation, Cher and Lori Woodley-Langendorff discuss All It Takes, an organization dedicated to empowering youth and those who serve them through experiential learning and social emotional skills. They explore the importance of understanding barriers in parenting, the role of adult behavior, and the concept of taking 'two steps further' in personal growth. The discussion emphasizes compassion and the significance of small steps in achieving larger goals, ultimately highlighting the journey of self-discovery and the importance of communication in relationships.  Takeaways: Experiential learning is crucial for personal growth. Understanding barriers is essential in parenting. Adult behavior impacts children's actions significantly. Taking two steps further can lead to personal growth. Empathy is a noun, while compassion is a verb.  We have 18 years to prepare our children for life. Small steps can lead to significant outcomes. Building trust and agency is vital for youth development. Communication is key in fostering understanding and relationships. learn more at https://www.allittakes.org/ Start your free Solution-Focused  3-day training here: https://www.thefocusedmindset.com/leadwithhopechallenge  You want to have meaningful conversations, but relationships are complicated, and opportunities are missed.

“Just because you've had success in other fields doesn't mean that you get to skip rungs on the ladder.” Grant welcomes Jon Acuff back to the The Speaker Lab Podcast! Jon is a regular guest on our show, because he's an active speaker, a well know New York Times bestselling author, and one of Grant's good friends. "I think you could climb the ladder faster when you're an expert at something else already. Like, you and I have seen that, like, former athletes climb the ladder faster. People that have done other things climb the ladder faster. But I think it's about setting your expectations. I think it's about setting the reality. I think it's about putting in the work, about thinking about the client, like, outperforming what their expectations are."This week, they dig into Jon's speaking journey what he's learned through writing his latest book, All It Takes is a Goal, and how you apply these goal setting principles to your speaking business. This episode also covers: How to climb the speaking ladder What it looks like to set big goals that don't set you up for failure Jon's favorite goal setting framework How to embrace challenges and connect with the audience What it's like always playing away games How to use books to grow your business What ghostwriting is and how to tell if it's a good fit for you A little bit more about Jon's new book “It's kind of like, an NFL player who sucks at announcing. They do it for like, three games and you never hear from them again. And you're like, But I thought he played in the NFL for ten years. He's a hall of famer. Yeah, it turns out performing in a game or commenting on a game are very different crafts. And he thought, Nah, dude, I throw touchdowns. I know how to break down a game and do color comment like, no, you don't. You have a chance to engage in that with humility and work on it and put in the reps and the effort, or it just falls apart. And so I remember so many times where I would go and again, it would be low fee, small audience, maybe new content, and I'd put together my own slides, and it was me learning how to do it. And you really have to look at, like, if there's five people in there or 500, I have to give my best.”Episode Chapters:[00:02:34] Start small, build up to guaranteed goals.[00:06:52] Frustration and joy in pursuing new ventures.[00:09:58] Always serve well. [00:14:54] Content creators need to accept the limitations of their celebrity status.[00:19:08] To become a keynote speaker you have to cater and serve corporate audiences, books are a great tool for that.[00:24:26] Test your content live before creating a book.[00:25:36] Continuing to use older content as it fits the audiences is a great way to use your books after you publish them.

I believe that setting a goal will help you lose weight. But that doesn't mean you need to pick a goal weight. I've just watched too many women skip setting a weightloss goal.

I've invited one of my favorite authors, Jon Acuff, to join me on today's podcast.  We're celebrating the release of his new book called All it Takes is a Goal: The 3-Step Plan to Ditch Regret and Tap Into Your Massive Potential, and why it's so perfect to apply to your weightloss.

Jon Acuff is paving the way. He's paving the way for his daughters as he just co-wrote a book with them (!) and he's paving the way for us with practical, relatable information that makes our lives better.  In 2021, Jon wrote Soundtracks: The Surprising Solution to Overthinking and he has this way of doling out information that sticks. It slides into your brain and rolls around in there and connects with your other thoughts and helps you make more heartfelt choices. It was an honor and a hoot to get a chance to talk with Jon about parenting topics like helping kids learn their "turn down" techniques for when life has gone haywire, like giving kids time to practice skills during childhood so that they feel prepared for adulthood, like being purposeful and present with today's relationships. We also talk about legos. And queso. And skittles and failure. Jon's daughters, L.E. and McRae wrote a sequel to Soundtracks that's geared for teens called "Your New Playlist" and Jon was their editor.  As a New York Times Bestselling Author and INC Top 100 Leadership Speaker, Jon packs it the good stuff while being entertaining, witty, and memorable through and through.

How far should you be allowed to go when you disagree with someone? Is it OK to boycott a business with a policy you don't like? Is it OK to encourage others to join you? At what point does influence become intimidation? I've invited Michael McCarthy to talk about his article. "All It Takes is 5 Monkeys and the Cancel Culture is Empowered."
