I am talking to the wonderful Kim Nicol in this episode. Kim is a life coach, mindfulness teacher, and host of The New Manager Podcast. We focus on providing practical tips for self-advocacy and speaking up for oneself. Speaking up for yourself or self-advocacy is a muscle we must develop in order to negotiate for our worth. So, our call to action is this - use every opportunity to practice this muscle.  Need a home office allowance? Ask.  Participate in volunteer work? Ask.  Want to be part of a high visibility project? Ask. Equally important in advocating for yourself is the courage and ability to say "no." While many of us are aware of this, very few of us have the practice of saying 'no.' We often get inundated with to-do lists that end up blockading our progress.  Until we master these skills, we will continue to under-earn. Tune into this episode for some actionable tips that can make a real difference. Enjoy! Links: If you want to ask for a pay raise, use this script. (It's Free!).

In this week, I interview the amazing Kim Nicol who is known in San Francisco for bringing meditation and mindfulness to fast-growing tech start-ups, hacker houses, attorneys, and Fortune 500 executives. A former lawyer, Kim's practical approach and calming presence have made her a favorite among analytical thinkers. I first met Kim almost five years when she invited a group of us to a meditation session. Kim was probably one of the first people to introduce meditation and mindfulness to me. I remember after the session feeling so powerful, expansive, and clear-headed. Kim explained to the group the science and benefits of mindfulness training, and then left the group with a profound question: “if you all feel this amazing right now and you understand all the benefits from mindfulness training, then why aren't you doing it everyday?”I heard her say this and I myself couldn't answer the question. My answer or excuse was, “I don't have time,” or “I don't want to make the time.” And the truth of the matter, was sitting in silence and being “mindful” was difficult for me. I remember hearing Russel Simmons, the CEO of Def Jam records at one time, say that if you can't sit and practice mindfulness training for 20 minutes, then you should be doing it for two hours.

We all have a money story, and there are ALWAYS layers of emotions built-in. When we're in a relationship...oh, boy. But there's a silver lining: We can create more intimacy, trust, and connection by opening up about our money story -- and also being curious about someone else's money story and experience. Still, when and how do you bring up the topic of money? What if it's a new relationship - you don't want to scare them away, right? Today's guest, Kim Nicol, is a life coach with expertise in mindfulness and leadership. She is here to share tips about how, when, and why to bring up finances, especially when dating or in a new relationship. She teaches us how to learn about our acquaintances, friends, and partners by asking curiosity-driven questions about their first job, holiday gifts, expectations, and memories.  A few highlights:  How you can learn about someone's experiences and perspective on money by asking creative questions.  [4:31] Kim's process of evaluating why you may want to know about the person's money perspective, and how to allow that to determine what you ask.  [8:35] Her personal experience in bringing up holiday gifts with her partner before Christmas, the sweet gifts they exchanged, and how being open about the subject relieved building tension about money and the upcoming holiday season.  [18:04] Read all the show notes, get Kim's links, and find out more at https://ahkcoaching.com/podcast

Kim Nicol is a lawyer turned mindfulness and leadership coach. Kim tells us about how she explored her natural interests and that took her into a new field. It was scary, but also enlightening to realize that people actually make money outside of the legal and corporate world. Kim has created a portfolio career for herself. Among other things, she specifically works with lawyers on wellness and mindfulness. It can be an important tool to calm your brain long enough to get clarity on whether you hate practice or just hate your environment. Kim is a great example of someone who's found work that really aligns with her personality and strengths. And she gives us some hope about managing the stresses of being a lawyer.  In today's episode we discuss: Being good as a litigator was going to run against Kim's natural grain Being a lawyer is like becoming a professional pessimist...possibly negative Competition isn't a natural strength for everyone Kim initially landed in legal publishing  The next career pivot was the scary part for Kim Kim's interest in mindfulness, yoga, and fitness guided her next steps Kim realized people make money outside the legal/corporate world Kim's curiosity and confidence combined into courage We have the skill of advocacy, we need to start advocating for ourselves Kim has created a portfolio career of mindfulness, leadership, and life coaching Kim specifically teaches continuing legal education on wellness and mindfulness Illegal Design Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/illegaldesign  Kim's upcoming CLE: https://www.lawline.com/course/the-role-of-attorney-wellbeing-in-your-legal-practice Kim's Website: https://kimnicol.com/

“The most powerful seat in any organization is the one you are sitting in. Your ability to influence, create change, and make a difference has nothing to do with your title or where you are… It has everything to do with who you are. No matter where you sit you have more power to make a difference than you realize. The question is, who do you want to be today?” - Kim Nicol on Product RemixedIn this episode of Product Remixed, Frances sits down with mindfulness and leadership coach Kim Nicol. Topics of conversation include: why mindfulness is essential in leadership positions, leadership as a balance between managing and coaching, how mindfulness allows you to show up to your life instead of react to it, how to give feedback that builds teams not tension, feedback as a form of service, and more....Mentioned Resources and Links:Kim Nicol*Website: https://kimnicol.com/*Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kimnicol*The New Manager Podcast: https://anchor.fm/kimnicol*Essential Skills for New Managers: https://kimnicol.com/new-managers/*General Assembly Workshops: https://generalassemb.ly/instructors/kim-nicol/4911Satori Yoga Studio*Practice Online now and In-studio when they re-open http://satoriyogastudio.com/Bill Campbell Book*https://www.trilliondollarcoach.com/Good Product Manager, Bad Product Manager*https://www.khoslaventures.com/wp-content/uploads/Good_Product_Manager_Bad_Product_Manager_KV.pdf

This is a replay of episode 29 with Kim Nicol. Kim's journey from marketing, to law, to mindfulness and meditation is an inspiration for anyone who feels stuck at their jobs or in their career. There's a lot we can learn from Kim, so check out our great conversation. --- Kim Nicol teaches meditations and mindfulness and has helped thousands of people find calm in everyday moments. In this episode Kim talks about how she went from marketing, to being a lawyer, to becoming a mindfulness and meditations teacher. She also talks about how to relate to others and the many different ways she helps bring mindfulness into people’s everyday lives. Here are three things you can learn from Kim: Your journey doesn’t need to be linear Many people settle for their lot in life. They went to college, got a job, and are stuck there. At least that’s the thought. It doesn’t have to be this way. Many people think of life as a singular path, but it’s much more complicated than that. Kim’s path took her from marketing and branding, to being a lawyer, and finally to her calling as a mindfulness and meditation teacher. If you feel like you can’t do anything about your job, think again. Look at Kim as an example, and remember, many other people are finding their way too. How high powered people can overcome stress People in positions of power often get stressed because they can’t control everything. They lived most of their lives getting what they wanted, but when things don’t go exactly as planned, they stress out over it. The best way to overcome this stress is to shift your perspective. It doesn’t do any good to get angry over something you can’t control. Instead take a breath and decide from a place of calmness. Explore your options and shift your relationships, choices, and momentum so you aren’t burning energy. Advice on getting started with meditation When people here meditation, they often think of monks sitting on the floor chanting to themselves. This often turns people away because they are daunted by how intense it can be. The good news is, meditation comes in many forms. It doesn’t need to be that intense or intimidating. If you want to get started with a mindfulness or meditation practice, Kim advocates starting small. People often give up because they start off trying to meditate for 20 minutes. Instead, start with a 3 minute meditation and increase the amount of time as you become more comfortable with it. Kim also advocates approaching your practice with a sense of curiosity and adventure. Don’t worry about getting it right. See how you can make it fun.
