 In a world where the pace of work feels as rapid as a cosmic voyage, thought leaders are pioneering solutions that defy convention. Today we unravel an unconventional gem: The unFIX model. Unlike traditional agile frameworks and self management approaches, unFIX introduces a paradigm focused on perpetual innovation and enhancing the human experience. We sit down with Jurgen Appelo, a trailblazer in the world of organizational transformation and the visionary behind unFIX, who also happened to be our very first podcast guest back in 2016. We discuss everything from organizational design and artificial intelligence to the power of personal habits, and how Appelo's views have changed over the last seven years.  Learn more about Jurgen and the unFIX model here: https://unfix.com/ **  Happiness means different things to each of us. After doing extensive research, Management 3.0 founder Jurgen Appelo discovered a common thread: Happiness is something we create. It is not something to achieve. It is a path you choose, not a destination to arrive at. So many of us spend our lives in pursuit of happiness. Instead of searching for it, we need to find ways to live it, embrace it, and implement it into our daily lives. That's why we created the 12 Steps to Happiness at Management 3.0. You can find more information and even download a free poster of the 12 steps at: https://management30.com/practice/ For more happiness visit: https://management30.com/

Tonny startte een 6 weken yoga challenge maar strandde na 5 weken "buffelen", terwijl het stoppen met alcohol drinken wel moeiteloos verliep. Waar zat het verschil? Waarom lukte het ene wel en het andere niet?De 9 vragen voor duurzame gedragsverandering zijn kort samengevat:Lijdensdruk, heb je er last van om je slechte gewoonte vol te houden?Urgentie, moet er nu iets aan gebeuren?Is er een alternatief wat voor handen ligt?Kan je het automatisme van deze gewoonte doorbreken, al dan niet met hulp?Ervaar je sociale druk om je gewoonte vol te houden en kun je deze druk weerstaan?Zou je de voordelen van je slechte gewoonte willen opgeven?Vind je dat het aan jou ligt? Ben jij verantwoordelijk voor je gedrag?Wil je er voor gaan om je gedrag te veranderen?Als het tegen zit, zet je dan door?Volgens Dr. Appelo moet je op deze 9 vragen 'ja' antwoorden om in staat te zijn tot duurzame gedragsverandering.Zie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Today I'm talking with Lisa Appelo about her tragic story of suddenly becoming a widow with 7 children and how God ended up using this hard season of her life to fuel her calling to help others endure grief and hardships.  In this episode, we talk about her story of loss and moving forward. Then we talk about how she realized that God was calling her to use this hard season to help others.

Maybe your grief is that a child leaves for college this month. Maybe it's that your husband's new job requires him to travel every week, so you feel like a single parent. Maybe you're grieving the end of a long-time friendship.

Key Quotes “If we will do the hard work of grief, we can begin to see life flourish again in new ways.” - Author Lisa Appelo “Grief was learning to live with the love and without my loved one.” - Author Lisa Appelo “We don't just dump out our emotions. The process (of lament) is to take those questions and emotions to God but then to say, “But I trust you.'” - Author Lisa Appelo “Part of lament is just unburdening our heart.” - Author Lisa Appelo “If we do not process grief on our terms now, it's going to come back on its terms later.” - Author Lisa Appelo “I couldn't carry my children's grief but that I would walk with them in it.” - Author Lisa Appelo “When we mask grief or try to escape it or fake it, a lot of times, we can turn bitter because we haven't allowed God to be sovereign.” - Author Lisa Appelo “Grief takes up so much space.” - Author Lisa Appelo “God doesn't give us second best. He would never give His children leftovers of a life.” - Author Lisa Appelo As Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

Childhood should be carefree, right? We hope that our kids make it to adulthood with as few scars as possible, but that isn't the nature of the world we live in. What happens when our kids encounter grief? What happens when we aren't able to give them the childhood we wanted them to have?  This week I talk with Lisa Appelo, widow and mom of seven, who found herself in that spot - grieving the life she wanted for herself and her children, and then having to navigate the shift in every relationship that comes through change or grief. What she has found in the last 11+ years has been the presence of God for her and her kids. The rhythm of their regular bible study was a lifeline and she offers us great encouragement of God's nearness and direct involvement in our lives. Read more of their story in Lisa's new book Life can be Good Again: Putting Your World Back Together After it All Falls Apart. We're taking time this summer (as usual) to be mentored by some experienced moms and benefit from their wisdom. I'm asking them about their “mom brands” and the unique families and assignments God has given them to help us embrace the specific and unique spot God has given each of us.  Discussion Questions: What stood out to you in the episode?  What does family bible reading look like in your home? What is one change you could make to your routine to incorporate some kind of bible reading? Think small! Remember that Lisa says it's a fight to make that space but totally worth it.  Where can you give your kids the freedom to choose, allowing the Lord to work in them independent of your direct guidance? You can think small here too!  Where might you need to step back in your child's life to preserve your relationship with them? What relationships have shifted because of loss or change, big or small?  Spend time praying with and for one another over these relationships and God's good plan for them. (This could feel like an insurmountable question for someone in your group - approach it with empathy and care!)   Connect with Lisa Appelo:  Website:  https://lisaappelo.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lisaappeloauthor  Instagram:  @lisaappelo Twitter: @AppeloLisa Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/LisaAppelo/_created/    Links Mentioned:   Life Can be Good Again: Putting Your World Back Together After it All Falls Apart by Lisa Appelo  Hinds' Feet on High Places: An Engaging Visual Journey by Hannah Hurnard  Hinds' Feet on High Places: Children's Edition by Hannah Hurnard  Write the Word Journal for Kids Love God Greatly SOAP Journal One Year Devotional for Boys 2 Related Episodes: How to Fight Fear & Believe in a Faithful God :: Lisa Appelo [Ep 84] Featured Sponsors:  Athletic Greens.

Today, I have an incredibly special conversation to share with you. Lisa Appelo is a writer, speaker, Bible study teacher, and homeschooling Mom of 7. As a young couple, Lisa and her husband had a vision of how they thought their life would unfold, and the Lord redirected those plans a number of times. One of the biggest things they never saw coming was that her husband, and high school sweetheart, passed away very suddenly. After this devastating loss, Lisa began trying to navigate life with her children ranging at the time from ages 4 to 19, and as a woman whose life had been so tightly woven together with her partner's, and a woman who had always believed in and loved the Lord, but needed Him to be near, and real and good to her in a way she had never known before.  In her new book, Life Can Be Good Again: Putting Your World Back Together After It Falls Apart, and in our conversation today, Lisa shares what her journey of grief, wrestling with God, and truly depending on Him looked like in those first tender days and weeks, but even now as she continues to walk with the same God who has always been near to the brokenhearted in this broken world. We talk about some of the big questions we honestly ask in lament before our Maker like: are you going to be there for me? How are you going to provide for me? How are you going to fix these broken hearts? Are you really good? Is God doing this to me? Is He a mean God? As Lisa sought out God in His word and experienced His tangible care through those around her, she wrestled through these questions and shares today the difficult but life-giving process of turning to the Lord in crisis, and not turning away from Him. God has healing and purpose in everything He calls us to, and He is truly good. I know this is an episode many, many people need to hear and I pray it ministers to you today.  Just remember the pain you see around you, or that you personally know, this is not how the story ends. You matter, and your story matters.  Today's episode sponsor: Tony Crabtree Homes with Exit Realty Home buyer guide: http://bit.ly/buyersguidecrabtreehomes Seller guide: http://bit.ly/sellerguidecrabtreehomes Facebook Instagram Website YouTube JOIN OUR PATREON COMMUNITY!!!!
