As women, we have enormous potential to lead. It's inherent in who we are. But we tend to dismiss a lot of our feminine attributes as not being effective enough or strong enough.

It was so powerful and we hope it emboldens you to no longer lead with just your masculine traits.

How does your self-worth relate to accountability? As women, we often relate our responsibility in needing to hold people accountable to how we view ourselves. The negative associations of accountability have grown to the point where setting boundaries seems nearly impossible. It's gotten so bad that some female business owners have considered just ending their businesses altogether. They're struggling with a nearly overwhelming number of issues: people not following through, not showing up, not keeping their commitments. But is the issue of accountability really a direct reflection of us as female entrepreneurs? No, it isn't. The core actually comes down to how we view our own worthiness. And there are people that want to work, want to do a good job, want to be part of something amazing. They exist. You just need to find them. And you need to reframe your beliefs to embrace that you – and your business – are both worthy and worth it. “The reason that we allow people to not fully meet the expectations that we have of them in our business is because we don't believe we are worthy of it.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn Negative associations with accountability Questioning your worthiness True accountability Your real responsibility Good people out there Why you created your business Stuck in the cycle of compromise Contact Info and Recommended Resources FREE PASS WEEK!

Why is holding people accountable so difficult as a female business owner? How did simply holding people accountable become associated with being bitchy? Why do not only others tend to think that but we, as women, can even think that about ourselves? It's not right! In this episode, I tackle the problem of holding people accountable. It seems that in today's age, this can be harder than ever before. But it shouldn't be. All you're actually doing is expecting people to do what they agreed to do. It's not unreasonable. I've found that the most important and impactful form of accountability is holding ourselves accountable. What do I mean by that? Let's talk about how to hold people accountable, without anger and while showing one of the highest forms of love. “Women, over time, learn to not hold themselves to account when other people disregard, disrespect, do not follow through on – or just ignore – a grievance.  Because they don't want to be thought of as aggressive or bitchy… They get left out of the tribe. So what I want you to know is: You're very welcome in my tribe.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn  Holding yourself accountable You're very welcome in my tribe You don't have to be mad What you're really saying when you don't address it One of the highest forms of love Contact Info and Recommended Resources FREE PASS WEEK!

Finding the right people to work, especially in the last couple of years, has become very tangled. People have started new businesses, closed businesses, changed jobs, juggled an ever-changing job landscape… and so on. While experts in fields have become more scarce, many entrepreneurs have had businesses explode before they are even ready. And thus, they need help but it has been rather chaotic. The frustration of finding enough good people has become very real. Business owners are finding what they're seeking for their business is no longer matching what those who are skilled want. So does that mean it's not going to work? Is it time to hang it up? Or is it time to approach and frame things differently? “First of all, our clarity in how we design roles is critical… I need people who can think about what to do and they can actually do it... I have to hire strategists that also produce.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn Where have all the experts gone?

Is CEO a noun or a verb? You may have never contemplated that question but the differences it implies are significant. What do you think of, what comes up for you internally, when you hear the word CEO? Do you have a visual in your mind of a particular person? A functional role? A personae? A specific vibe? As we continue on our path of new and of change this season, I want to challenge your brain and your default thinking. CEO is an acronym that has, for decades, been a very masculine term and title. And, as such, has been difficult for some women to embrace. But what if we viewed “CEO” not as a noun, but rather a verb? What if it is about actions you're taking to put your magic out into the world, to allow that magic of a business you've been kissed with to grow and expand?  “Whatever you choose to call yourself, my goal is always that it instills a little discomfort. And it invites you to a new level of gravitas, a new level of presence, and a bigger, bolder – but also authentic – voice in leadership.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn Changing your voice and presence Implications of the term CEO Gravitas and out of the weeds Impairing growth in the moment Power and presence of CEOing Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Want to be coached live by Kris for an upcoming episode?

Can you be a successful entrepreneur but not a visionary? And vice versa, can you be a successful visionary but not really an entrepreneur? Perhaps before you can answer those questions, you must first decide: Are you an entrepreneur, a visionary, or both? And, most importantly, how does leadership fit into it all? As we continue this brand new season (Season 5) of Leadership Is Feminine, I invite you to ponder these questions with me. Often, as business owners, there are questions we don't think to ask ourselves but find if we did, we'd learn so much and find immense magic in the answers. To that end, I want to explore the difference between a visionary leader and an operational entrepreneur. Is being an entrepreneur simply the operational expression of the visionary? What is the value of being a visionary? Let's dive in. “When you're a real visionary, when you really, really do see things other people don't see, and you believe in the possibility of what you see that doesn't exist yet, you have the potential to change the world with your vision.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn Earmarks of a visionary vs an operational entrepreneur Shift in perspective Your ideas are the asset Leave survival thinking in the past Investment in yourself is never a waste Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Want to be coached live by Kris for an upcoming episode?

Why do I say yes when I really want to say no? Why do women, more often than men, gravitate toward people pleasing? I found myself asking these questions and thus pondering: What do I think I'm accomplishing when I'm so agreeable? What am I actually accomplishing? To take it a step further, I pondered the reverse: What am I actually accomplishing when I'm being more controlling? As we start Season 5 of Leadership Is Feminine, I want to focus on a time of change and some decompression from the pressures we've all been under. One definite source of pressure as leaders is people pleasing, as is the opposite, which I term people depleting. This is when people are demanding and controlling, so they themselves can be the one pleased. An interesting fact is that we can find ourselves on either side, depending on the issue and circumstances. But no matter what side we're on, we can help mitigate the resulting pressure when we better understand people pleasing and controlling as leaders. “You're saying yes… not to please the other person. You're saying yes… because you don't want to experience your own discomfort of saying no… So who are we really pleasing in the moment? And are we really pleasing anybody?” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn People pleasing and people depleting Who we're really pleasing Delighting people instead Pleasing ourselves through control How either approach affects our business Taking personal responsibility Handling our own discomfort Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Want to be coached live by Kris for an upcoming episode?

There's a current phenomenon called “quiet quitting”. As business owners, we need to be aware of trends like this because they can potentially affect us. In particular, this approach to life is being promoted by Gen Zs but anyone could jump onboard with it.  So what exactly is “quiet quitting” and how can small businesses prepare for its possible impact? In this episode, I explore generational differences, the quiet quitting movement, post-pandemic mental health, clear expectations, having regard for others, and more. How does this all tie together and what might it mean for you and your growing business, lovely CEO? Let's talk about it. “We do have the least prepared workforce… I do not say that to be disparaging. I say that because that is true... There is more responsibility now than ever on employers to help people learn what it means to work. And also to work with balance.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn  Generational differences The quiet quitting movement Post-pandemic mental health Honesty, clear expectations, and quality communication Find balance and lead well because we need each other Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Want to be coached live by Kris for an upcoming episode?

If you're juggling the questions of “When should I hire?” or “Who should I hire?” – let me help guide you. The answers to those questions are completely tied to the answer to a question that should come first. That is, “What phase of growth is your business in?”    This episode idea sprouted from help I've been giving to many regarding hiring and two recent Live Coaching with Kris episodes. As we navigate what I call the “Messy Middle” in building an entrepreneurial business, we need help but getting the right kind of help, at the right time, is absolutely crucial. If you hire the incorrect people during the a phase, you can actually lose touch and control of your own business. Please don't let that happen. Let's talk about who to hire in the messy middle of your entrepreneur journey. “Learn how to manage. Anybody could work for you then. It's fine. If you learn how to manage. But otherwise, you set yourself up where you don't have control of so much of your business.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn  Phases and stages of business Correct help in the Messy Middle Correct help in the Established Phase The quagmire of improper outsourcing Hiring right at the right phase Contact Info and Recommended Resources Recommended previous episodes regarding hiring: Cautionary Tips When Hiring Employees from Corporate Culture  Should I Hire a Friend?  What Position Should I Hire First for My Growing Business?

As your business grows, you're going to need help. You can't build your queendom all alone. But what position should you hire first for your growing business? Should you hire someone to match your work and share the load? Should you hire an assistant to perform numerous tasks? Should you hire someone to complete just specific projects? Is there a way to know what the best choice is? For this episode of Live Coaching with Kris, I tackle this inevitable growth question. My guest listener has grown her business to the point where she needs help but isn't sure which position to fill first. She feels she doesn't have enough revenue to hire more than one person but desperately needs help in more than one area. Together, we discuss the pros and cons of each type of hire, discuss the process of narrowing down hiring options, and ultimately, look at potential solutions in a whole different light.    “It does pay off… You've got to think about this as an investment… And you might have to kiss a few frogs.

“You should do this.” “You should do that!” “Hey, have you considered…” When you're building a business, so many voices and ideas constantly come at you. You can become lost in all the possibilities and your business becomes your life. Maybe it's time to build your businesses a little differently… Especially if you realize you've built your life around your business, rather than your business around your life.  But what if you intentionally built your business to nurture the life you want? How would you go about it? To begin, you need to quiet the noise all around you, to anchor to internal wisdom, and then act from there. Let's talk about what it might look like to build a business that supports your life.  “We get so immersed in the business that we end up building a life around the business.

The cost of doing business seems to be rising by the day. Inflation is hitting small businesses pretty hard. The current economy and labor market are so different than even just a couple years ago. And when you've got a team, wages, in particular, are a big consideration in your budget. Because of these unique changes, I hope to help you have a bit of a brain shift in this episode. As leaders, we have Two Buckets to recognize: Beliefs and thoughts (including the opinions of others) versus Facts. The impact of all the information constantly coming at us can make opinions appear as facts. This can dramatically affect how we look at, and what we feel about, everything going on in our businesses. It can especially affect our opinion about hiring and paying wages.

Countless methods and resources are available to help you grow your business. Courses, programs, systems, outside help, advisors, even business coaches. But should you hire a business coach? What do they do or not do? For that matter, is everyone with the title “business coach” actually a business coach? In this episode, I share many thoughts and insights into what a true business coach does. From my own experience, I can confirm that a really great coach can bring huge value both professionally and personally. However, it is also my opinion that not every person who calls themselves a business coach really is one. That's not to say they aren't great at what they do, but rather to delineate between an actual business coach and someone who is more properly defined as an expert in specific aspects of business. Let's talk about it.  “A coach says, ‘I know you know the right answer for you. And I'm going to help you discover that... But your wisdom is in there and I'm going to help you access it.' That is coaching.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn  What a business coach actually is How teaching, mentoring and advising differ from coaching Clarify what you're actually needing Keep your coach as only yours How to know it's time for a business coach Place boundaries around your coach search Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Reminders:  Join Kris' email list for valuable content by heading over to krisplachy.com and dropping your name in the signup box!

Do your meetings with your team end up off track? Do you avoid scheduling meetings because they're really not productive? If so, you're definitely not alone. In this second installment of “Live Coaching with Kris”, I tackle this prevalent problem. As I coach a listener about how to run a productive 1:1 meeting, clarity in business rises to the surface. When you're running a business, clarity is necessary in every area. Clarity in job descriptions, roles and responsibilities, clarity in expectations and outcomes, and clarity in the direction each team member is headed. With these in place, meetings naturally become more focused. Couple that focus with praise and positive feedback, and you'll soon be looking forward to meetings, rather than dreading them. Speaking of clarity, if you missed the first installment of “Live Coaching with Kris”, I encourage you to go back and listen to it. In that episode, I advise around the common question: Should I Hire a Friend? Clarity is needed in that situation as well and I hope my coaching brings you an abundance of it. “In my life, we've always talked about giving positive feedback as cookies, not crumbs… when you add detail, it really shows that you paid attention.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn  Take the vital signs of your business Clarity and purpose The Employee Continuum Coach for growth Coach for engagement and retention Not coaching, employing management Give cookies, not crumbs 4 Guiding Steps: Ask for input Choose measures Decide frequency Determine direction Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Kris Plachy Reminders:  Join Kris' email list for valuable content by heading over to krisplachy.com and dropping your name in the signup box!

All business owners face this dilemma: Should I hire a friend? Of course, there is an added emotional dynamic when employing someone close to you. Those ties do require consideration. However, regardless of who you hire, consistent frameworks need to be in place. Without them, decisions and potential outcomes can become very messy. In this first installment of “Live Coaching with Kris” on my Leadership is Feminine podcast, I address the common question of employing people you know. As I coach a very successful business woman regarding this, we cover guidelines in employing people, clarifying expectations and defining roles, delegating not abdicating, and much more.  By the way, I'm very excited to add these episodes. I'm loving doing these live, anonymous coaching sessions with one of you, my listeners, recording it, and then sharing it so we can all benefit. It's a blast! I can't wait to share more of them with you all.  “I think I need to hire someone to support me. Not someone I'm going to support.

Today, I am grateful to have here with me, a pioneer in creating global awareness of low-level inflammation and how it is the underlying cause of most illness, disease, faster aging and weight gain, Dr. Lori Shemek. She has been sending out the message about inflammation long before it was a buzz word. Dr. Lori has uncovered the pathway to the core cause of weight: inflamed fat cells that not only promote unwanted excess weight gain and belly fat, but poor health as well. Lori Shemek is a Nutrition and Weight Loss expert, a best-selling author and specializes in weight loss resistance. She has helped many people to once and for all.. lose the weight and feel better fast. She shows people how to spot sneaky foods that create weight gain, to kick sugar addiction to the curb, and shift from eating the wrong foods to the exact foods that burn fat. Dr. Shemek is an award-winning, bestselling author of How To Fight FATflammation!; The Ketogenic Key; Beginner's Guide to Intermittent Fasting and Fire-Up Your Fat Burn!  She is a leading health and weight loss expert and also known as “The Inflammation Terminator.”  She has made it her mission to help clients lose weight and educate the public on the toxic effects of certain foods and lifestyle choices and how they create inflammation in the body resulting in weight gain. She is a leading authority on inflammation and its role in weight loss, preventing disease and optimizing health. The Huffington Post has recognized Dr. Shemek twice as one of the Top 16 Health and Fitness Experts, alongside such names as Dr. Oz and David Zinczenko, author of Eat This, Not That. The Huffington Post has also recognized her as one of the Top 35 Diet and Nutrition Experts. In this episode, Dr. Lori opens the show diving into her story. Dr. Lori's mom died at a young age from bad health. So, Dr. Lori made it her mission to help people make healthier choices. Dr. Lori chooses to focus on inflammation because you can prevent so many diseases and health issues if you can decrease your inflammation. Plus, reducing your inflammation will most likely result in weight loss. Also, Dr. Lori explores the best foods for keeping your inflammation down and reveals why you should avoid unstable fats. Tune in as we talk magnesium, carb cycling, and which type of lab tests you should order.

Text me +1 (786) 364-5002 [02:15] About Dr. Lori Shemek Lori's mom had a lot of health conditions. Her lifestyle choices drastically affected her life. She smoked cigarettes, was obese, had a horrible diet, and was under a lot of chronic stress. Unfortunately, her mom died at 36. Dr. Lori made it her mission to help people in the health realm. Lori created her own company to help people with their health. Many people feel like they don't have a choice when it comes to their health. However, that's far from the truth. 80% is a choice – we can change our gene expression.  [08:20] Why Dr. Lori Focuses on Inflammation Lori would read about inflammation at school – she realized that it was the key. If you can decrease your inflammation, then you can prevent so many diseases, ill-health, and weight gain. It is extremely beneficial to understand that inflammation is the reason for many health issues. [09:20] The Differences Between Acute Inflammation and Silent Inflammation We have three types of inflammation: Acute: we know the inflammation is there because it's uncomfortable, and it hurts. It's a cut on your finger, the terrible head cold, and the sprained ankle. This inflammation is great because it tells you that something is wrong with your body. Silent: the name suggests danger. It's silent; you don't know it's there. 75% of our country has silent inflammation, and they don't even know it. It's the core cause of illness, disease, faster aging, and weight gain. Fatflammation: fat cell inflammation is silent inflammation in the fat cells. The types of foods most Americans are eating is creating a body that is producing inflammatory molecules. When the fat cell gets bloated, it expands. The fat cell won't be happy. When the fat cell is not happy, it will act like it's sick or infected. Unfortunately, doctors will put a band-aid on chronic inflammation. [15:15] Foods For Inflammation Keto is an anti-inflammatory diet. Foods that will stop inflammation are things like omega-3. The critical foods for keto: Wild, fatty fish Seafood Berries Green tea The keto choices that we have are usually anti-inflammatory [17:15] The Problem With Consuming Unstable Fats on Keto Our cell membrane is thin, but it's essential for optimal health. The health of our cell membrane will determine your overall health. It allows nutrients to come in and out. The membrane is made of fat. Corn oil, vegetable oil, soil oil, canola oil, safflower oil, cottonseed oil are highly processed and highly refined. The body does not know what to do with these processed oils. The cell membrane uses fats that you're eating. So if you're eating vegetable oils, those fats will become your cell membrane. [21:40] The Relationship Between The Cell Membranes and The Mitochondria   The mitochondria are everywhere – they are crucial because they generate ATP, which is the energy that our cell needs to survive. Stop eating the types of foods that are ruining the cell membrane. Then, ensure that you have enough magnesium. Magnesium is crucial for your optimal health and weight. The mitochondria starts sending out signals of distress to your body. Then, your body will begin to inflame within the cell. Until we intervene and make healthier choices, then the inflammation will continue. [25:55] The Importance of Magnesium When you eat low carb, you are emitting a lot of fluids. With that fluid comes a lot of precious minerals like magnesium. Lori says that people should take magnesium as a supplement. Lori will take magnesium threonate. There are many types of magnesium. You can use a supplement that has nine different types of magnesium. If you're overweight, you are going to need more magnesium. If you have foggy thinking, then you're going to need more. 600 mg is excellent. [30:00] Getting In and Out of Ketosis When we go in and out of ketosis, we teach our bodies how to be metabolically flexible. Depending on what works for you, ramp up your carb intake one or two days a week. However, if you're losing weight, then stay strict on the keto diet. When the weight starts to fall off, your body will be able to handle the carbohydrates. Otherwise, you won't be prepared for carbs. [32:35] Benefits From Fasting Health is about ketosis. If you don't want to do the ketogenic diet, then fasting will provide ketosis. Lori will do 14-16 hours of fasting each day. During fasting, your body will reset. If you have insulin resistance, intermittent fasting is a fantastic way to repair your body. [39:15] About Dr. Lori's Favorite Lab Tests Test your vitamin D. If you have a low vitamin D level, then you have an inflammation problem. Your vitamin D levels should be at 70 or higher. CRP value is important; the lower, the better. 1 or 2 is ideal. Test your glucose. Even the healthiest keto foods might not agree with you. Use a glucose monitor to determine what will raise your glucose. AND MUCH MORE!

Has believing you're not business minded held you back? If so, I have good news to share: That may only be because being business minded may not be as you envision it. There is much more to it than stats, accounting and marketing. Don't allow behaviors and skills that can be cultivated and activated – even if you weren't good at them in the past – hold you back any longer! Because how we think about all this can be such a hindrance, I wanted to address it. When I thought about how to approach this topic, my friend Jody Moore immediately came to mind. Jody is a gifted coach and she's developed a program literally called “Business Minded”. As we recorded this episode, Jody shared how she used to believe she wasn't business minded but learned differently. She and I go on to discuss several aspects of what it actually means to be business minded, including important metrics, consistent behaviors, sales approaches, and much more. “Without consistent behavior, skills don't matter. And, the good news is, you don't even have to have the skills if you just compensate with behavior… And, then of course, ironically enough, the more behaviors you put in, the better your skills become.” – Jody Moore  What You'll Learn  What it is to be business minded Metrics that matter versus indicators that don't Behaviors, skills and consistency Reframing making offers Is the Business Minded program right for you? Goals that pull Removing bottlenecks Contact Info and Recommended Resources Connect with Jody Moore Jody in her own words… Hello, I'm Jody. I'm a lot like you. I am a mother of 4, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, and a woman trying to figure out how to minimize resentment, overwhelm and guilt, and replace them with happiness, gratitude and joy. Three years after getting married I found myself with two kids under age 2, a loving husband, and a lot of self-loathing. I struggled with the duties associated with being a mom and wife and then I felt guilty for feeling that way. After all, this was the life I thought I'd always wanted. I have a BA in Communications and an MA in Adult Education along with 15 years of experience as a Corporate Trainer and Leadership Coach, but what has helped me the most to overcome my struggles and to conquer all of my goals, are the tools I use now to coach my clients. Thanks to my extensive training with Brooke Castillo of The Life Coach School, I am now a Certified Life Coach, and I couldn't be more proud of the work I get to do in the world. What I learned when I found coaching (and now teach to others), helped me gain my confidence back. It helped me enjoy my kids and love my husband exactly as he is. It helped me create a successful business and be the kind of mom I want to be at the same time. The tools I teach are the ones that have helped me live gospel principles and develop a closer relationship with my Heavenly Father. Today I have the honor of helping women (and a few brave men) achieve the results they desire in all areas of their life. My clients range from young newlyweds to empty nesters and together, we are changing the results in their lives. I feel so honored to get to work with these individuals to improve their relationships, their confidence, their physical, mental and emotional health, their money situation and their contribution in the world. I believe all of my previous education and experience has prepared me to do this work. I'm a lucky woman. And guess what? So are you. I will help you find it.

Stress is inevitable. We're running our businesses, cherishing our personal lives, navigating the changing world around us… No matter where we turn, stressors are present. Simply trying to tell ourselves not to feel stressed, and to just relax or to just suck it up, is unhelpful and often ineffective. I want to offer an approach that helps: acknowledging the stress, identifying what's going on when we feel stressed and knowing what we can do to mitigate it. As we examine how to manage stress for women business owners, I want to discuss the elements of stress. I believe there are major contributing factors such as resistance to the truth, how we buffer stress, and our personal tipping points. In consideration of stressors, we have countless outside sources but the inner source – that is, our own inner dialogue – is the overpowering one. Therefore, the thoughts you think are the ultimate source of stress, and framing them is key to management. Let's talk about it. “That inner dialogue that you entertain is really, ultimately, the source that we have to talk to… that inner dialogue is either promoting your ability to be resilient and capable… or that inner dialogue is promoting your ineptitude, your lack of skill... But as you tell that story about who you are, I want you to look at what that does to how you feel emotionally and physically.” – Kris Plachy What You'll Learn Resistance to the truth The skill of resilience Breaking down stressors Countless sources Stories we tell ourselves Victim vs. owner Framing your thoughts with power Contact Info and Recommended Resources CEO Immersion (aka How to CEO LIVE!)

Karen Kumar is our guest for episode 26!  Karen shares her story with us about how she grew up all around the midwest, moving a lot and learning the art of being able to say goodbye and hello to new friends well.  She shares about her passion for sports and how she thought and dreamed of going to the olympics when she was a young gymnast and then how quickly that reality pivoted when that dream came crashing down.  Karen shares about her love for talking and communicating, connecting with others.  When Karen was in college she was a part of Toastmasters and able to use her communication skills and passion to become a leader.  Karen shares what led her to take 26 credit hours for American Sign Language and how she was a mere two classes away from being ASL certified.  Her passion for sports led her to her college major of Physical Education and that funneled her to student teach and then become a teacher in China.  In China Karen shared about how all of her passions for talking to people and sports were avenues that allowed her to share her passion of telling people about Jesus.  Karen made the tough decision to come back to the states after teaching in China where she worked at the Salvation Army and then teaching at a prestigious school in Chicago as she waited and listened to God as He called to full time ministry as a pastor for the Salvation Army. You are for sure going to want to lean in and not miss hearing Karen’s story as she highlights her passions of telling people about Jesus, Sports/Healthy Lifestyle and Talking/Communication .  No matter if this is your story and you can relate to her or not I believe that there is something in this episode for you. Quotes:“Why am I here if I can’t even speak Chinese?  Or tell someone the Gospel story? And God told me at that moment that you do not have to talk, I [God] just asked you to come to China and to be there so people would see me in you.” Karen Kumar“I think that God wants us to be present where we are.” Karen Kumar“When we live boldly, we are able to accomplish the very things fear tells us we can’t.” Taylor Rambo Follow Karen on Instagram @kjinchitown  Follow No Wrong Turns Instagram @nowrongturnspod Facebook @nowrongturnspod  Check out the book club selection How to be Anti-Racist by Ibram X.

One that changed lives.  Wreckless Grace is a redemptive journey that will encourage and inspire you to step into the grace you are called to live in - leading you to a life of perseverance, compassionate love, ridiculous grace, and boldness - so that you can live out your purpose. One of my favorite quotes from Taylor’s book says, “When we live boldly, we are able to accomplish the very things fear tells us we can’t.”  Taylor’s book and story unpack this idea much more.  This idea of the connection between boldness and forgiveness that can lead you to be able to achieve and conquer the very things that fear is telling you you cannot do. Wreckless Grace is available for purchase now on Amazon in paperback and ebook.

Celebrity holistic health coach, internationally recognized yoga teacher, author, and speaker Koya Webb joins me for a soul-defining conversation. Koya's core mission is to promote daily self-care, oneness and eco-friendly living to combat some of the world's biggest challenges including mental health, social injustices and global warming. Koya is the founder of Get Loved Up, an international lifestyle community and Yoga School that inspires mental, spiritual and physical health through an app, online courses, retreats, in-person yoga teacher training events and the Get Loved Up Podcast. She is the author of LET YOUR FEARS MAKE YOU FIERCE: How to Turn Common Obstacles into Seeds for Growth, which addresses daily self-assessment and mindfulness, understanding how to make fear your friend, and using the power of holistic health to heal – all messages she promotes to her devout Instagram following of over one million followers. As a former competitive track and field athlete training for the Olympics, Koya first got introduced to yoga after a debilitating track injury. Once recognizing the physical and mental benefits of yoga, she shifted her focus to yoga, personal training, and life coaching -- combining the work ethic of an athlete with practical holistic health practices that anyone can follow to live a healthy and active lifestyle.  Through Get Loved Up, Koya aims to dramatically decrease the number of people who suffer with chronic diseases associated with an unhealthy diet and lifestyle through daily self-care, plant-based nutrition and eco-friendly living. The Get Loved Up app features various yoga flows, sculpting workouts and meditations, along with vegan recipes, progress charts and a community board to help users achieve and maintain their wellness goals.  In this episode, Koya speaks about how fear is simply feedback and why self-love is the most significant act we do for ourselves. It is once we fully love ourselves that we are able to help others, and then go on to impact the world. And that when we get under the belly of fear, we understand that it is simply giving us information on where we need to pivot.

Chasing top-line revenue can be a path to self-destruction for entrepreneurs. What happens when you lose sight of your business sweet spot to chase revenue? On today’s episode, Darren Virassammy from 34 Strong joins Dr. Sabrina to share his previous work experiences as a team member in a company that had a tight sweet spot, then lost it. Darren and Dr. Sabrina share a mission to create great places to work and on today’s episode they dive deep into how Pumpkin Planning to define the business sweet spot is foundational to creating a highly profitable, great place to work. A tightly defined sweet spot makes it possible for team members to work from their strengths.    Dr. Sabrina and Darren will be partnering again in the coming months to deliver “Leading Your Organization From Your Strengths” through Tap the Potential. Consider joining them as it is powerful training for your team!   Darren is the Co-Founder and Chief Operating Officer of 34 Strong, comprised of a team that believes everyone deserves a great place to work and that any workplace can be great. A leading expert in the global employee-engagement community, the 34 Strong team leverages the strengths-based approach to human development to create massive shifts within organizations, both culturally and on the bottom line. He and his team have created sustainable change in small micro-businesses all the way up to large, organizational teams at the FDA, Bank of America, and the California Department of Public Health. Recently Darren has keynoted for Hitachi Global Women’s Conference, the Rotary World Peace Conference, the Professional Grounds Management Society, and author Mike Michalowicz’s ProfitCon. Darren’s 34 Strong business partner, Brandon Miller, is the co-author with his wife, Analyn Miller, of a strengths-based parenting book titled Play to Their Strengths, which was published in July 2019.      Show Highlights:   Darren shares how he worked for a company that unintentionally built teams that played to their strengths, and how smoothly their projects went. Then everything shifted. The owner of the company decided that job descriptions were going to be combined, and no longer would the team be able to play to their strengths. This eroded the sense of accountability.  Darren relates how this transition negatively affected the team dynamics, and how team members experienced trust issues, clarity, and self-doubt. They went from engaged to highly disengaged. Although the company grew in revenue over the next year, the bottom line was massively threatened. The company grew, but the team didn’t. This was incredibly painful. Darren provides some examples of having to push back on a client trying to force him to violate the company’s immutable laws. In the construction industry, the idea is that you’ll be able to make it up in volume. This is a myth!  Being set up for failure: Darren describes being a fire-fighter having to put out “fires” on other projects because an estimator was trying to manage a job. He questioned why more time wasn’t being spent training the estimators so they could be more successful in their projects. “Controlled burns” would have been spending the time to align talent and deciding which roles people stayed best in.  Dr. Sabrina summarizes the Tap the Potential Solution for creating a highly profitable, great place to work. Dr. Sabrina and Darren discuss his experience with “Pumpkin Planning”, how Pumpkin Planning is not a “once and done” event, and how Darren’s team is looking at “Pumpkin Clients”, as well as “Pumpkin Fields”. Considering the quality of your revenue.

How are you showing up as a leader today? Ronda Conger calls us to be the leader we wish we had and challenges us to be intentional about how we are leading. Ronda Conger is Vice President of CBH Homes, Idaho’s largest homebuilder. CBH Homes has been named a Best Place to Work in Idaho repeatedly and ranked 10th in the Nation for Productivity. Dr. Sabrina’s interview with Ronda is featured prominently in Dr. Sabrina’s book, How to Hire the Best: The Contractor’s Ultimate Guide to Attracting Top Performing Employees. On today’s episode, Ronda shares how “Love Wins” is the backbone of CBH’s culture. She reveals leadership practices that make CBH a great place to work, and talks about the gauntlet candidates go through to get to work at CBH. Plus, she digs into the surprising reason why 70% of their team is comprised of women in this male dominated industry.    Ronda leads the CBH troops daily, and has overseen all areas of the company for the past 16 years. Last year, the Idaho Business Review named Ronda “2018 Woman of the Year”. On top of that, she also received the “2018 St. Luke's Children's Hospital Luke Award”, the “2017 Women in Construction” award, and the “2017 Leukemia and Lymphoma Society’s Light the Night Community Impact” award.   Ronda is a business woman, professional speaker, and author.  She is on a mission to spread a movement with her three books: Better Human: It’s a Full-Time Job, Better Thinking: Think Better. Be Better, and her newest book, You Go First: Become the Leader Your Team Needs.   Show Highlights:   Ronda shares her poignant and moving background, and how she came to understand that before she could lead others, she must first learn to lead herself. Be grateful for what you have in the moment, while you’re rising and reaching for more. The “Love Wins” philosophy: You have to love yourself. When you love yourself, then you give out love with everyone you come in contact with. When they feel it, they give love to everyone. It makes your families, friends, team members, and communities better. CBH Homes received Entrepreneur Magazine’s “Top Company Culture” award. CBH Homes has also received “Best Places to Work” awards for the last 7 years.  Ronda relates how CBH Homes surveys their employees to make sure their team loves them. Ask yourself if you were the employee, would you want to go and spend your day at the company? Would you enjoy it? Ronda’s leadership team created a list of 12 attributes that they wanted their team members to have. Some examples she provided: be a high producer, be coachable, strive for greatness, be a team player, communicate, be grateful, have an attractive attitude, have fun, and be fun. This is how they hire like-minded people.  Dr. Sabrina points out how you must have a lean and mighty team to be profitable in a tight labor market. Ronda mentions the importance of taking very good care of those team members. A-players need help in slowing down and having fun so they don’t burn out. Make the time for weekly one-on-one conversations with your employees. Consider asking your employees if there’s anything you can do to make their lives better. Dr. Sabrina and Ronda chat about the importance of staying curious. Women make up 70% of CBH Homes work force. This is mostly because men typically do not make it through the pre-interview gauntlet. “Mutually invested relationships” are what business owners should strive for. Run your ranch high and tight! Ronda explains what this means to her. Individual goals have to align with the team goals. Team goals have to align with the company goals. Regular check-ins and performance measurement makes sure this is happening.     Links and Resources:   Get How to Hire the Best on Amazon www.TapThePotential.com/Amazon How to Hire the Best Masterclass Ready to become an Employer of Choice to attract a steady stream of A-Players chomping at the bit for the opportunity to work with you?

This is the strict technical legal expression used to describe the ownership in “an estate in fee-simple in possession in a corporeal hereditament”. The word “seised” is used to express the “seisin or owner’s possession of a freehold property”; the phrase ‘in demesne’, or ‘in his demesne’, (in dominico suo) signifies that he’s seised as owner of the land itself, and not merely of the seigniory services; and the concluding words, ‘as of fee, import that he is seised of an estate of inheritance in fee-simple. Where the subject is incorporeal, or the estate expectant on a precedent freehold, the words ‘in his demesne are omitted. Source: (Co.

The U.N. also holds all of the land of America in Fee Simple.Why is the above so difficult for most people to understand? Simple: words like ‘person’, ‘citizen’, ‘people’, ‘or’, ‘nation’, ‘is’, ‘fact’, ‘authority’, ‘truth’, ‘nation’, ‘crime’, ‘fraud’, ‘charge’, ‘right’, ‘statute’, ‘preferred’, ‘assume’, ‘prefer’, ‘constitutor’, ‘creditor’, ‘debtor’, ‘debit’, ‘discharge’, ‘payment’, ‘law’, ‘United States’, and hundreds of other words do NOT mean what you think they mean and you were never taught the ‘Legal Definitions’ so you would ‘Understand that you DON’T understand’.Don’t let this information alarm you because without it you cannot ever HOPE to be free.You have to understand that all slavery and freedom originates in the human mind. As the philospher Goethe wrote: “No man is more hopelessly enslaved than he who WRONGLY BELIEVES that he is free.”When your mind allows you to accept and understand that the United States, Great Brittan and the Vatican are Corporations which are nothing but fictional entities which have been placed in your mind, you will understand our slavery remains primarily because we believe in false fictions.The Illusion is MUCH larger than the irrefutable 30 points above, and the 30 points above are not even the tip of the tip of the iceberg. But it is, at least a starting point.

People like to say "go with your gut." But what if your gut is totally messed up and hurts all the time? Literally?? Today's guest is one of the smartest, funniest, most insightful people I know in the wellness world. Phoebe Lapine is a food and health writer, gluten-free chef, wellness expert, culinary instructor, and Hashimoto’s advocate and speaker. On her award-winning blog, Feed Me Phoebe, she shares recipes for healthy comfort food and insights about balanced lifestyle choices beyond what’s on your plate. Named by Women’s Health Magazine as the top nutrition read of 2017, Phoebe’s best-selling debut memoir, The Wellness Project, chronicles her journey with Hashimotos Thyroiditis and how she finally found the middle ground between health and hedonism by making one lifestyle change, one month at a time. Phoebe is also the host of the new podcast SIBO Made Simple. Having suffered from her own host of gut health issues, Phoebe wanted to take all she learned and share it with those recently diagnosed or chronically fighting Small Intestine Bacterial Overgrowth - people who are hungry for solutions and wondering WTF to do next.  This podcast is for you if you fit into one simple category: you want to feel better than you do right now. Plus, Phoebe is funny as hell and her laugh is infectious. SHOW NOTES: Feed Me Phoebe SIBO Made Simple Dr. Allison Siebecker What Thyroid Blood Tests to Get & How to Interpret Them

We start things off correct with a Ticking All the Boxes for Legal Intro followed by what my notes say was Good Old Name Pie Corner, which, your guess is as good as mine. Oliver drops by for a minute to let me know he crashed my car before we hit Will Doesn’t Get How 420 Works Corner and then payoff our Coffee Shop Cliffhanger in epic fashion with Will’s Lost Love Corner and Will Dodged a Lot of Bullets in 1st Grade Corner. After that Will hits the old facebooks where you, the listeners, gave us corners to cover. We’ve got Jason Keezer’s Duct Tape Corner which creates a Doublemint Duck Sound Situation Corner. Then there’s Jenn Edens’s Zac Efron Death Penalty Corner before Kitty Steffens Beans Corner leads us down a lengthy Bean Problem Situation Mind Journey Where Umbrella Choice is Key and You Have to Count Your Beans Before You Go in the Bathroom Kitchen Corner. After that there’s Becca Bost’s Butts Corner and Adri Pendergrass’s Coconut Popsicles Corner before Oliver storms back in, deep in the throes of a bender, to close the whole thing down. Contact Us!
