On this episode of Heidi's Lane, I'm opening up about 8 lessons that have reshaped my life, bringing clarity and a deeper sense of purpose. Each lesson didn't just appear; it emerged from the struggles, messy days, and little breakthroughs that have guided me to where I am now. In this episode, I talk about the power of creating space for what really matters, the strength that comes with learning to say “no,” and the importance of recognizing which “balls” in life are glass and which are plastic. These lessons have shown me how to breathe easier, let go of what doesn't serve me, and truly prioritize my happiness and my family. I hope that by sharing these truths, you'll find a piece that resonates with you too—a reminder or a new perspective to help you find your own balance. Listen in and let me know which lesson speaks most to you. Here are the key moments from the episode: 2:20 Lesson 1: Making Space 9:40 Lesson 2: Saying No 14:10 Lesson 3: It Can Wait 18:15 Lesson 4: Stuff Will Fall Through the Cracks 25:10 Lesson 5: The Concept of Being Behind 27:50 Lesson 6: Less Is More 30:30 Lesson 7: The Disconnect of Expectations 33:00 Lesson 8A: Find Someone Who Amplifies Your Happy 35:14 Lesson 8B: Don't Stay for the Promise of a Future Connect with Heidi: Website: https://heidipowell.net/ Email: podcast@heidipowell.net Instagram: @realheidipowell Facebook: Heidi Powell YouTube: @HeidiPowellNet Train with Heidi on her Show Up App:  https://www.showupfit.app/ Essentialism (Greg McKeown): https://amzn.to/4hKrdTC

I'd like to begin this episode by acknowledging the land that I am learning and living on is the traditional unceded, un-surrendered territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People. I don't like clutter. I don't like having all kinds of extra things just laying around taking up space in my physical and emotional spaces.Now, that's not to say I don't have all kinds of things floating around in my mind, or that I live a physical minimalist lifestyle, but I do like things to be neatly placed in their spot. The trick with this is that I sometimes become overwhelmed when I feel as though I'm overly cluttered.  And these feelings and preferences are not specific for me, most often, new leaders feel as though their ‘workspace', in whatever way we are discussing, can feel cluttered, creating spaces where we can get tripped up.So... how can we become uncluttered?Well, I have good news because in this episode, you'll hear from Lisa Zawrotny, a productivity and accountability coach who will talk about decluttering and how this clarity can lead to stress management, giving new leaders clear mind and body.  Lisa will do this by offering her proven decluttering framework. Trench Leadership: A Podcast From the Front is humbled to have been named #7 in the Top 20 for Best Canadian Leadership-themed podcasts for 2023. Lisa's Episode Links:1.

Whew. When I read the bio on Lisa Morton I felt all kinds of intimidated. Then we met online to podcast and it was like I found a long lost sister.  This woman shared her story and entrepreneur journey with me with such vulnerability and transparency it was like taking a deep breath of fresh mountain air.    This is a show for the very-human big-dream kind of woman who knows her limits, faults and shortcomings… and shows up every day to do and offer her best, right or wrong, mistake or not… but always to try.  **   “It's integrity, I will never finish a job that's not finished properly.” - Lisa Morton    “It is absolutely okay to be vulnerable.” - Lisa Morton    “Show vulnerability in life, ask for help, don't try and profess that you can do everything. You'll be surprised that the offers of help do come because people feel that you're a human being and that they can relate to you.” - Lisa Morton   “What drives me is to make a difference, to create an impact, create purpose and put people together and create magic.” - Lisa Morton   Connect with Lisa Morton:   http://www.rdpr.co.uk/   https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisamortonrdpr/   https://twitter.com/RDPRtweets   https://www.facebook.com/RolandDransfield/   https://www.instagram.com/roland_dransfield/ More Links:   We Built This City Podcast (Apple) https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/we-built-this-city-greater-manchester/id1499688807 We Built This City Podcast (Spotify) https://open.spotify.com/show/3AOUQyqzzOgyGup9nUpS8i Books: **As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases**   Essentialism - Greg McKeown  https://amzn.to/3lCm6te   Essentialism - Greg McKeown (Kindle) https://amzn.to/302WU7y   Essentialism - Greg McKeown (Audio) https://amzn.to/31xWPJM   John Amaechi - The Promises of Giants  https://amzn.to/3dpdu4m   John Amaechi - The Promises of Giants (Kindle) https://amzn.to/3ExsCZp   John Amaechi - The Promises of Giants (Audio) https://amzn.to/3pvPcvo **   “20 years ago I survived a sexual assault from my boyfriend.  13 years ago I decided not to kill myself.  10 years ago I was left with 350 k worth of bad debt.  8 years ago I went into consumer proposal to fix that. 6 years ago I welcomed my beautiful daughter into the world.  4 years ago I left my marriage to fall in love with myself. 2 years ago I allowed myself to heal and reconnect with my feminine;  AND rebuilt my life as I moved into my own tiny home and found my lifetime love.  This year, I started my podcast and welcomed my second baby earthside." Candice is a self proclaimed master manifestor and personal development junkie who loves to engage in interesting conversations with other influencers and entrepreneurs.  Her favourite conversations are the ones that take courage to engage in.  (Check out her podcast, Create the Ripple Podcast wherever you stream your podcasts for more of that!)   She spends her time living - in a tiny home (250 sq ft), traveling with her daughter - speaking - on her podcast and on stages, and sharing candidly with other women how to find love after betrayal, to trust themselves, to speak up for themselves and set powerful boundaries.    After a narcissistic and abusive romantic partner cheated on her with multiple women and left her (and the country) with significant unexpected bad debt and ruined credit, Candice was forced to rebuild her life, her credit and her trust in herself.   Over the next few years Candice navigated the challenging world of foreclosure court, filing for financial proposals and divorce.  During these times she adopted a minimalist lifestyle, leaned on her personal network and practiced radical personal forgiveness, acceptance and responsibility.  The journey was not without its impact and Candice shares powerfully about dealing with anxiety, depression, shame and learning to let go.   Now debt free, financially stable and in a safe committed relationship, Candice loves her minimalist lifestyle for the beauty and freedom it offers her.  She knows the power of a good thrift store shop and loves her wardrobe!  She has learned the power of saying no, listening to your own heart and speaks openly about subtle abuse as it occurs in relationships.   She's become a voice for listening to your own truth and speaking it powerfully.  She knows how to save money, make money online and in creative ways to balance the books as a single mom and yet live your biggest and best life.     Candice can never resist the urge to take off her boots to walk barefoot into a clear mountain lake or stream. When she is not connecting or writing, she can be found disappearing into the backcountry trails of Canada with her life-love Mark and losing herself exploring waterfalls and mountain trails. She is a quiet introvert who adores eating clean foods and reading a great book.       Curious to know more? https://linktr.ee/CandiceSmiley https://www.podchaser.com/CreateTheRipplePodcast   You can find transcriptions for each episode on my website https://www.candicesmiley.com/podcast-archive      Modere.com or Modere.ca: 5579027 BIOCELL LIFE SAVE $10.00 CODE: https://www.modere.ca/ProductDetail/liquidbiocell-life-ca/?referralCode=5579027     DISCLOSURE: I USE MY WEBSITE, MAGAZINE AND SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS TO CREATE THE INCOME THAT SUPPORTS MY LIFESTYLE.

Greg McKeown ~ Author of Essentialism ~ Current Series ~ 100 Interviews with 100 Major Influencers Hey listeners, I want to welcome you all to a very special podcast that we are recording today!  Why is it special?  Because today we have one of my favorite thought leaders and author of a book that is without a doubt one of my top-10 reads of all time. You know when you find a book or a philosophy, or a quote that sings to your soul, and changes everything for you, this author's book did that for me.    His name is Greg McKeown and he is the author of Essentialism. Essentialism is a NYTimes Bestseller. It has sold more than 1 million copies around the world, it has been translated in 25 different languages, and voted a Top 20 Book on Leadership by both Amazon and Goodreads. The philosophy of Essentialism has been taught by Facebook, Apple, Pixar, Google, Twitter, and I am sure thousands of other businesses around the world. The ideas and strategies in the book have been featured in Time Magazine, The New York Times, Fast Company, Politico, Inc Magazine, Harvard Business Review, NPR, NBC, Fox, & The Steve Harvey Show.    This book is one book that I couldn't put down when I read it, I've easily recommended it to dozens of people... and also recommend it to all of you. I've read it twice now, applied the principles of Essentialism for years, and it will forever be on my bookshelf as a re-readable.    So, who can get value out of this podcast? I am going to answer that question by quoting a passage from Greg's book. “Now let me ask you this: have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Have you ever felt both overworked and underutilised? Have you ever found yourself majoring in minor activities? Do you ever feel busy but not productive?

Annnddd we’re baack! It hasn’t been that long, two weeks to be exact, but long enough for me to miss you all. But I am glad I took that break to regroup, refocus and align my actions with bringing you not only good content but valuable content. On this episode I discuss how not all good things are God things. When we confuse the two we can exchange what we know with what we immediately see. What we know is God has ordered our steps and we need to follow and trust Him with our plans. What we immediately see is the satisfaction of success, the wins, the recognition. All these are are the idols we have created for ourselves along the road to success that can cause us to lose focus. In the book ‘Essentialism’ Greg McKeown puts it like this “Success can distract us from focusing on the essential things that produce success in the first place” In this episode we look at the scripture Isaiah 37:1-20 and I challenge you to audit your ideas and every opportunity that comes your way. Is this shaped by human hands and fails to align with the purpose of God, unable to bring value and create change within the human hearts and souls or is this opportunity so divine that all of the earth will know that God alone odained it.

Being the captain of your own ship means taking control of your life! In this episode Eddie and Terry discuss the book Essentialism by Greg Mckeown. Essentialism is all about the things you can cut away from your life and creating a disciplined pursuit of less

If you feel like you're being pulled in too many directions, have too many competing demands, or are working yourself to the bone, but not getting where you want to go, then do we have the show for you! Today we'll be talking with Greg McKeown, author of one of my all-time favorite books, the NY Times best-seller Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less.

That plus we'll talk about the how to go in monk mode, why we all want to go fly a kite, why sleep is the new status symbol, what a dinosaur covered in pink flamingos has to do with anything, and why from here on out, there's no more Yes. It's either Hell Yeah, Or No! Questions and Topics Include: What is the power of less? How'd Greg go from Law School in London to Essentialism Question: What would you do if you could do anything? What his dad said to Greg when he told him he was thinking of quitting law school – and what in the world Hamlet has to do with anything Why is it that otherwise successful people and companies don't break through to the next level? What is the paradox of success? What's the challenge that comes with success? What is the undisciplined pursuit of more, and why is it so dangerous (and it's the natural extension of success) Why success can be a catalyst for failure Why according to Bill Gates “success is a very poor teacher How do we become successful at success? What is a contribution or fulfillment gap? What does it mean to retire in roll? Why you should do only the things that bring you the most value Why saying yes to everyone is saying no to everything Why you want to do few things done better to break through to the next level Why our culture is biased to on having to do it all – which makes it more difficult to have success What's the philosophy of non-essentialism?

Why you don't ‘have to do' things Why the power of choice can be ‘forgotten' with non-essentialism What's the ‘invincible power of choice? Why Southwest Airlines has been so successful, and what we all can learn from them What's the harm of a straddled strategy? How do we protect our time so we can start to narrow things down? What is the 90% rule? Why you constantly want to increase the dial of selectivity Why if it's not a definite lens, it's a definite no. Why do we want to all go fly a kite? Why play is essential and why we want to play our way to learn (especially important for our children!) Why is sleep the new status system? What's a bogus badge of honor in the busy-ness bubble we're in How we're waking up to sleep being critical to high performance What the mind blowing truth is on the 10,000 hour rule from the Eric Anders study that's quoted in Malcolm Gladwell's book. Why you do not want to ‘be a machine' Why sleep is a must because it ‘helps you discern the vital few from the trivial many' Why relationships with children are ‘hard if you work easy at them and easy if you work hard at them' What's the importance of the idea of ‘inter-generational family' What are a few of Greg McKeown's favorite books?

Dr. Pete Camiolo, DC talks to Dr. Justin Trosclair DC on A Doctor's Perspective Podcast. You need a big mission but sometimes it can overwhelm you and family life suffers. This was his catalyst to begin coaching which turned into mastermind coaching model. We discuss the mastermind evolution and how it's a superior method. Be a remarkable ceo. Starting out in a different profession he soon realized that people commented a lot that they didn't plan to ever need to be in a rehab center or assisted living but they didn't really have a plan to not end up there to begin with. Hearing these comments and the health struggles of his brother and a nudge from his mom got him on the path to chiropractic. While being heavy on the adjustment side of chiropractic, he also coached patients on better nutrition and functional fitness. The interview is in reverse order. We first talk about how his mission was so overwhelming that he didn't invest enough into his family. Heart/big mission, pride/ego, drive for success and you /family are caught in the middle. Seeing 1000 visits a week by himself did lead to not putting his wife and growing family first. A crisis opened his eyes and turned his business and family life around. The harsh reality when you think you trained your associates well only to find out when you step away, the clinic tanks.  He built a clinic that was completely centered around his personality and it just wasn't sustainable. Servant leadership = how can I help serve you today and in your journey. We can control some areas of our life and clinic but you have to relinquish that need to control and let your staff and others help. Dr. Pete's first clinic had his associates doing the exams on 40-100 patients a month, he adjusted 1000 per week and did group report of findings. For his second clinic, he started training the associates to adjust as well. Usually he had associates that could learn how to create a business and they would move on in 1-2 years. 2 types of associates: cornerstones looking to stay and stepping stone who learn and move on. Why does he consider 1 on 1 or 1 to many (like on stage) coaching services turned out to be what he did Not want to do? It's not scalable and more importantly it didn't invite enough collaboration. Everyone has a unique viewpoint and a ‘genius' so in a structured environment a mastermind group can harness lessons form everyone… a giver and a taker.  Like a 3x engagement and return on the doctors in the program when he implemented a mastermind approach. Think about a weekly training by someone who is an expert at it (online usually), then you come prepared with questions and the magic and growth. Acceleration happens when in the right room, right conversation and the right people. Because his mastermind coaching was geared for doctors in the Scaling time of their career, he was having to turn away clients. Dr. Camiolo had a gap so now he is partnering and rebranding his business with the Remarkable Coaching Program.   Dr. Pete's rebrand is now Remarkable CEO. theremarkablepractice.com Podcast: Andy Stanley,  Dan Sullivan Strategic Coach, Bethel Church   Books: Scaling Up – Verne Harnish, Traction and Rocket Fuel – Gino Wickman, Jim Collins, Michael Gerber, Essentialism – Greg McKeown, The Synergist - Les McKeown, Ray Dalio, On Purpose Person - Kevin McCarthy Show notes can be found at https://adoctorsperspective.net/127 here you can also find links to things mentioned and the full transcript.

Essentialism - by Greg McKeown 'The Disciplined Pursuit of Less'   Why are people so 'busy'? Why do people feel like it's a badge of honour to have a calendar full of meetings? It's important that there is a MASSIVE difference between 'activity' and 'productivity' - just because someone tells you they're so busy, doesn't necessarily mean they're actually achieving anything.  Centred around the German maxim weniger aber besser, 'less but better', Essentialism is all about finding what is truly essential and cutting away everything that is not. It's about doing less, but achieving more.   Grab a copy of the book: https://www.bookdepository.com/Essentialism-Greg-McKeown/9780804137386/?a_aid=adamsbooks Join our new facebook group to learn more cool stuff: https://www.facebook.com/groups/whatyouwilllearn/

How do you know what’s essential in your life and what’s not? Greg McKeown has helped top executives answer that question and reach peak performance. His premise is simple – cut out what isn’t useful so you have more time for what is … but the execution is a bit more complex: with all the opportunities, invites, resources, how can we clear our RAM, unclutter the desktop and folders in our head so we have more energy for what is essential. Greg’s book Essentialism has been praised throughout Silicon Valley, and has brought Greg clients from companies including Adobe, Apple, Google, Facebook, Pixar, Salesforce.com, Symantec, Twitter, VMware, Yahoo! and more.

Check him out, everything he is doing is linked in the show notes-  and you can go on an adventure with him.  Shoot me some ideas too on where I should go next, adventures I should go on. I need some new ones, help me out! That'd be really cool if we all went on a big once a year Game of Life adventure together. We should really do that, that's a great idea.  Anyways, hope you all enjoyed the podcast and as always any feedback is definitely appreciated.  I want to keep making this the best possible for all of you!   Also big thanks to Whoop for sponsoring the podcast - you've got the chance to get your own today and compete with me on sleep, recovery, all that heath nut stuff I love!  And our course the biggest thanks to all of you.  You guys make this possible for me to bring on NBA players, top level performers and just have a ton of fun learning.  If you like the podcast tell others, give it good ratings, you know the drill. I think. Hope you all keep tuning in, if you have anyone out there I should interview, let me know!  Got a ton of great guests lined up for the upcoming weeks - more nba players to come and high level performers.
