Send us a textConnect with Dr. Bobby What is your Health Type: find out hereProvide feedback-answer just a few questionsSix surprisingly simple actions mighty meaningfully improve your sleep, eating habits, and overall well-being—and how you can easily test them for yourself.We begin with two sleep-related tips. First, try lowering your bedroom temperature to under 70°F. In a small controlled trial, participants who slept on a cooling mattress fell asleep faster and reported better rest. The second tip: go to bed at the same time every night. A study in adolescents showed that consistent sleep timing improves how quickly you fall asleep, total sleep duration, and overall sleep quality.Then we dive into three food-focused techniques. Starting meals with protein may help you feel fuller, thanks to effects on hunger-regulating hormones like ghrelin and GLP-1, as explored in this review and systematic analysis. Next, waiting 20 minutes before going for seconds may give your brain time to register fullness, supported by a study comparing fast and slow eaters. The fourth tip? Just stand up. There's no formal data yet, but being upright might affect how full your stomach feels mechanically—something I noticed during long flights when a quick walk dramatically reduced my appetite.Finally, we explore the idea of non-food “snacks” throughout your day. Evidence shows that short bursts of movement as brief as 30 seconds to 5 minutes can improve fitness, particularly in sedentary individuals. Similarly, just five minutes of breathwork has been shown to elevate mood in randomized trials. But here's the key: try them for yourself. In Part 2 of the episode, I guide you through using an “N of 1” approach to test each strategy. Start by measuring a baseline (using wearables, a sleep journal, or a validated sleep questionnaire). Then try one of these approaches for a few days or a week. Reassess and see what happens. Takeaways:Sometimes, the most powerful health strategies aren't the hardest—they're just the ones you haven't tried yet.

Episode Summary: Running a law firm shouldn't mean sacrificing your time, your profit, or your peace of mind. In this solo episode, I break down the Law Firm Freedom Audit—a proven diagnostic tool designed to help law firm owners identify exactly where their practice is leaking time, profit, or control. Whether you're deep in the trenches or already on your growth path, this episode will help you uncover hidden inefficiencies and give you a clear roadmap toward building a scalable, sustainable firm. Key Segment: Understanding My Freedom & Profit Score When I took the Law Firm Freedom Audit, I realised the number I got wasn't just a score—it was a mirror. It reflected how sustainable, profitable, and scalable my law firm really was. Here's what I learned about what each score range means: 110–140: The Scalable Zone I've built something solid. The systems are working, the team is in sync, and best of all—my business doesn't depend solely on me anymore. There's freedom here, and it feels good. Next move: Now's the time to scale with intention. The foundation is set—it's time to go bigger, smarter. 85–109: A Solid Start, But Still a Bit Scrappy Things are moving in the right direction, but I can feel where the cracks are. A bit of stress creeps in, and profits don't quite match the effort I'm putting in. It's frustrating, but fixable. Next move: I need to step back, identify what's slowing me down—whether it's clunky systems, role confusion, or missed opportunities—and start tightening things up. 60–84: I'm the Operator, and It's Wearing Me Down Let's be honest—if I take a break, everything pauses. I'm juggling too much, and it's exhausting. The business works, but only because I'm pushing hard behind the scenes. Next move: This is my sign to stop doing it all myself. I need to delegate, build systems, and make the shift from being the operator to becoming the owner. Below 60: This Is My Wake-Up Call If I'm here, I already know things aren't working. I'm doing everything and burning out fast. Profits are thin, and there's no structure holding things together. Growth? It feels out of reach right now. Next move: I need to pause. Reassess. And rebuild—with purpose. This isn't failure—it's a signal that something needs to change, for me and for the future of my firm. Takeaways: Why staying in “operator mode” is holding your firm back from real growth How to score your firm's performance across 5 critical areas: Leadership & Time Management Systems & Processes Team & Delegation Financial Control & Profit Personal Wellbeing & Lifestyle What your Freedom & Profit Score means—and what to do next The link between system gaps and burnout (and how to fix both) How to take action immediately to shift from survival to strategy Resources & Links Mentioned: Download the FREE Law Firm Freedom Audit – Takes 10 minutes and reveals your biggest growth opportunities.

What if your packed schedule is actually robbing you of the life you're working so hard to build? In this energizing and soul-stirring episode, speaker, author, and leadership coach Kishshana Palmer returns to share hard-earned wisdom from her new book Busy is a Four-Letter Word. With humor, vulnerability, and firecracker insight, she peels back the layers of what it really means to be “busy”—and why we keep wearing burnout like a badge of honor. From the moment her back literally gave out mid-suitcase-pack to the “green light” mindset that can reboot your ambition and your joy, Kishshana breaks down how to exit panic-mode productivity and embrace a more intentional, powerful way of living and working. This conversation is a masterclass in values-based decision-making, self-leadership, and how to build success that doesn't cost you your soul.
Despite the latest US job data showing resilience, underlying cracks are emerging—highlighted by downward revisions to job growth figures. The stronger-than-expected headline number adds conflicting pressure on the Federal Reserve, complicating the outlook for rate cuts. At the same time, rising yields in Japan and growing concerns over the US fiscal trajectory are prompting investors to seek diversification. With emerging markets and Asian bonds showing strength, the case for quality bonds with moderate duration continues to grow.This episode is presented by Magdalene Teo, Head of Fixed Income Research Asia at Julius Baer.
We're halfway through the year—and that makes it the perfect time to reflect, reassess, and refocus. In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my mid-year business review. I'll walk you through how I evaluate what's working, what's not, and the intentional decisions I make to course correct for sustainable growth. From post-launch reflections to visibility strategies, team leadership, and balancing life on the farm—this is a transparent look at what it takes to grow a business that actually fits your life. Plus, get the scoop on what's ahead for the Power Project, upcoming workshops, and how AI is helping streamline my business in exciting ways.
In this episode of The Family Biz Show, host Michael Palumbos sits down with Scott Saslow—entrepreneur, author, and founder of One World Investments. Together, they explore the overlooked complexities of what comes after the liquidity event. From defining a family office to uncovering its entrepreneurial DNA, this episode is a must-listen for legacy-minded leaders preparing for the next stage. Key Themes: What Is a Family Office, Really? Scott demystifies the term “family office” for founders and next-gen leaders. It's not just an investment vehicle—it's an infrastructure. And it often starts embedded within the family business itself.
In this replay of a solo episode, I talk about the power of regularly stepping back to reassess and tweak your life—your habits, your goals, your mindset—especially as you age. You'll hear why staying stuck doesn't serve you, and how even small changes can help you move forward with purpose, energy, and joy. I also share some of the science-backed tools that helped me reset—like resistance training and Interval Walking Training (IWT), a Japanese method that has transformed how I move, feel, and live. What you'll learn in this episode: Why reassessment is essential to aging better How to adapt when your body (or life) changes The psychology of goal setting and realignment How journaling and mindfulness support your growth Why celebrating progress—no matter how small—keeps you moving forward If you've been feeling stuck, stalled, or unsure about what's next, this episode is your invitation to reassess, tweak, and reclaim your momentum.

“People say, ‘Life is for living — not for tracking.'You can — and should — do both.TRACK what matters.”Want better results? Start thinking like a scientist.Not with lab coats and equations—just two basic question:“What did I try?

If you're stuck in a reactive sales cycle, feeling overwhelmed every new month with zero sales on the board, then this episode is perfect for you! Discover the secrets of the 'thirty day sales mindset' - and learn how to set the right sales foundation for growth. Whether you're struggling with lead generation, sales call conversions, or are finding that your content isn't bringing the results you need, Jess breaks down the necessary steps to troubleshoot your sales process and prioritise revenue-generating activities. So, if you are one of those people who have just realised that you are IN the year but haven't managed to take full action yet? Then now is the time to get your outreach done before you get left behind. You can grab my proven Cold Outreach Course by heading to: https://smartleaderssell.thrivecart.com/cold-email-outreach-conversion-course/ and say goodbye to revenue roller coasters and hello to predictable sales results! In this episode I'm sharing; 1. What is a real 30 day sales mindset? This is actually designed to be 30 days of sales focus where trained salespeople set the right sales foundations for moving into new markets/ setting themselves up for success. 2. What is it in the entrepreneur world? Unfortunately, it's the focus that most people have because they start at 0 sales every month. So instead of actually taking a step back to set the right foundations / give themselves time to really learn, set the sales stage and do... they just bounce reactively from month - month revenue and never progress their results. 3. What's the impact? Less growth in your sales (year on year) reactive/ rollercoaster revenue, high pressure delivery months + overwhelm, selling at discounted rates to just get sales through the door, no pipeline development/ lead generation so stalls your sales later down the line even if you're not seeing it now. Basically when used without a strategy like my cash injection for corporate strategy, it's just a dangerous hand - mouth way of running your business as a coach/ consultant/ speaker / trainer/ DFY and ends up with burnt out service providers who struggle to sell. 4. What to do instead? If you're already seeing this impacting your business OR recognise the signs? You need to do something now. You can absolutely set good foundations in place if you know how to manage setting foundations and balance that with critical sales activities. If you don't? You need to get the cold outreach course now and start putting that outreach plan in place OR message me to find out where your gaps are and start fixing them properly. Remember, in a changing market + challenging economy, the worst thing you can do is ignore early signs... it'll cost you more later. Key Quotes; The Pitfalls of the Thirty Day Sales Mindset: "I'm seeing more people than ever being super burnt out and overwhelmed because they're bouncing reactively month to month." 00:23:3400:23:41 "Reassess and Refocus for Real Revenue: This is a perfect time at the end of your first ninety days of 2025 to be reassessing what your actual sales numbers are and what your real revenue generating activity has been like." 00:03:5200:04:07 "The Key to Consistent Revenue": "Putting those foundational pieces in place, having that laser focus sales mindset and actually doing the right things, troubleshooting your sales process and fixing the right gaps, it's going to make you way more money, way more quickly than doing something fancy." 00:53:3800:53:55 The Revenue Roller Coaster: "And all of this combined means that from a revenue perspective, we end up on this reactive roller coaster feast and famine revenue cycle, where we bounce around from doing lots and lots and lots of short term sales activities that are designed to generate short term revenue." 00:32:4700:33:04 Listen in for exclusive tips, actionable insights, and a special offer on the Cold Outreach Conversion Course to help you reach your sales goals with confidence and clarity.

Still don't know how to track the 'right way'? » The Habit Mastery Workshop“Behavior is science. Achievement is art."Today we break down a simple but powerful concept: become a scientist when it comes to your goals and personal transformation. Too many people rely on motivation, willpower, or vague intentions. Real progress comes from data—collecting data: tracking habits, testing what works, taking notes accordingly, and making adjustments along the way."Key Takeaways from This Episode

Hi, friend! In this episode of Nonprofit Courage Lab, I dive into what it takes to make serious cultural shifts within your organization. If you're committed to raising millions in the next few years and creating lasting change, this conversation is for you. Here's what I cover: - Why culture change is non-negotiable: You can't just hire a fundraiser and expect miracles. To raise millions, your organization needs a culture that fosters accountability, bold leadership, and strategic action. - The board's role in success: Well-intentioned but unhelpful board members can derail your mission. Learn how to hold your board accountable and build a team that aligns with your bold vision. - Leadership starts with you: Your team's performance reflects your leadership. I break down how to lead with courage, clarity, and a coaching mindset to bring out the best in your people. - The power of direct feedback: Avoiding tough conversations or waiting too long to address performance issues only holds your team back. I share tips on giving feedback that inspires growth. - Why coaching matters: Being a great leader isn't just about managing tasks—it's about helping your team uncover their own solutions, develop confidence, and take ownership of their results. This isn't just about hitting fundraising goals—it's about building a sustainable culture of excellence, courage, and impact. To create a culture capable of raising millions, start by auditing your team and board dynamics to address accountability gaps and ensure everyone is positioned for success. Invest in your people through ongoing training, coaching, and development opportunities. Shift from managing to coaching by empowering your team to find solutions and take ownership. Reassess your leadership approach, modeling the culture of excellence you want to see, and clarify expectations with your board, ensuring members take meaningful action toward supporting your goals.Creating a culture that raises millions requires intentional leadership, direct conversations, and ongoing investment in your people. This transformation won't happen overnight, but by addressing cultural gaps and modeling bold leadership, you can build an organization capable of achieving extraordinary impact. Now's the time to step up, lead with courage, and build the culture that will carry your vision forward.Do you need to make bolder asks, but you have to figure out what the heck you're going to say?

“It's not how you start that matters, it's how you finish.” ~Michael Jordan»Tired of spinning your wheels? One course can change everything » The Habit Mastery Workshop. Begins 1/17/25Let's talk about finishing strong. Does anyone remember who led at halftime, anyway?Whether it's the final reps of a workout, the last chapter of a book, the home stretch of a goal, or the end of the year, finishing with purpose and intensity changes everything.The act of finishing strong isn't just motivational fluff; it's a game-changer for habit-building, self-confidence, and—bonus—a sweet dopamine rush.Benefits of Finishing StrongSupercharges Confidence: Ending on a high note convinces your brain you're the kind of person who executes on a plan and finishes what they start. When your last mile is faster than your first mile—you're finishing strong! Finishing what you plan—even small tasks (behaviors you're looking to cultivate into habits)—produces self-efficacy. Self-efficacy is the cornerstone of The Habit Factor's P.A.R.R., habit-building methodology.Reinforces Habit Strength: Imagine your habit as a snowball rolling downhill. Finishing strong reinforces your commitment; it grows larger and faster and gains momentum with each successful completion.Brain Candy: When you complete a task—almost any task you set out to accomplish—your brain rewards you with dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins. Bonus: all these feel-good chemicals help to reinforce your motivation to get back after it!Tomorrow Meets a Stronger You: Today's strong finish equates to you rejoining that next practice effort even stronger. You're essentially handing future-you a gift—you're paying it forward with each strong finish!Laser Focus: Aiming to finish strong forces you to up the ante—increase the energy, intensity, and focus.“A good start's a joyful run, but finishing strong is second to none.”P.A.R.R. and Finishing StrongThe Habit Factor's P.A.R.R. methodology (Plan, Act, Record, Reassess) sets you up for a strong finish by helping you to establish a “low bar”—making finishing strong easier.How it all connects:Plan: Start with your habit's “Target Days” are they (M, W, F) or (Tu, Th)? Notice they do NOT need to be every day. You select the days that work with you and your schedule. Then, identify the “Minimum Success Criteria” (MSC)—the “low-bar” part of your habit-building plan. For instance, 5 pushups or 25 pushups? Writing for 10 minutes or 10 pages?Act: Each action (according to your plan) becomes a mini-finish line. Crush it on your target days, and you're already finishing strong at a micro-level, which keeps the momentum building.Record: Track your progress against your “Targets” and build accountability. The more you see wins stack up, the easier it is to keep finishing strong.Reassess: Reflecting on what worked (and what didn't) ties a neat bow on your efforts and preps you for the next challenge.When you approach habits with P.A.R.R., you're not just grinding—you're creating a cycle of intentional starts and triumphant finishes.How to Finish StrongSet Your Sights on Small Wins: Small helps to get started—convincing yourself it'll be easy to start. Establishing low “Minimum Success Criteria” on your “Target Days” is the secret weapon of P.A.R.R., which works to help get started AND to finish strong.Consistency Beats Intensity: Skip the “all or nothing” mindset. Show up consistently and let habit strength compound over time.Plan to Win: Strong finishes rarely happen by accident. Decide in advance if you'll be exceeding your “Minimum Success Criteria.” Not so you can get two checks—but so you'll finish strong and show up next time even stronger.Reflect and Celebrate: Celebration is almost instantaneous as your natural reward systems—endorphins and neurotransmitters like serotonin and dopamine—will kick in every time you complete your “Minimum Success Criteria” on your “Target Days.” It won't just be a mental high-five… it'll be an emotional one that will keep you pumped and motivated as you prove self-efficacy.“Habit development cares little about bursts of energy. Habits are developed via consistency over time. The notion that you have to keep daily streaks alive or you can't miss two days is completely a myth. Consistency over time is the key to habit development, period.” This is a public episode.

The use and allocation of our time is the substance of our faith. Peter says the time that is passes suffices for all manner of sin, and Paul exhorts us to make the best use of the time because the days are evil. At this point in the year, reassess your use of time. Listen to Pastor David's exhortation to do so and give it careful consideration.
Ready to end the year with a gift to your future self? In this special episode, Brian guides you through a six-step process to close out 2024 and set yourself up for success in 2025. You'll tidy your finances, get a jump start on thinking about taxes, evaluate your business performance, and set strategic goals. Your Year-End Business Review Checklist Step 1: Close Out Your Financials Closing out your financials may sound dry, but it's imperative to get right. Review your books -- Review your profit and loss for the year for any discrepancies, outstanding invoices, or payments that need to be paid. Make sure you have the correct categories for your transactions to save you a headache when you prepare next year's tax return. Reconcile your accounts -- Every month, but especially at the end of the year, you should reconcile your financial accounts, including bank accounts, credit cards, and loans, to reveal unaccounted expenses or hidden fees. Analyze your cash flow -- Review your cash flow to see what you owe and who owes you. You can also get a clear picture of whether you can defer income to next year or incur more expenses this year to save on taxes. Review your payroll -- Ensure wags, taxes, and benefits are accurate and that Bonuses are accounted for with proper tax withholding. Step 2: Evaluate Your Tax Position Once your financials are in place, it's time to shift to taxes. Consider year-end tax deductions -- Incur expenses for purchases like office supplies, software, professional services, and equipment you will have in the coming year. Review your retirement contributions -- Don't miss your opportunity to make employee contributions to your Solo 401(k) before the December 31 deadline. Plan for next year's taxes -- Project what your tax liability might look like next year, plan for potential quarterly tax payments, and evaluate whether you might qualify for tax credits or deductions. Also, start gathering important information for tax forms, such as 1099 NECs and W2s. Step 3: Reflect On Business Performance Once the numbers are in order, it's time to review the past year of business performance and make meaningful adjustments. Review key metrics -- Identify the key metrics for your business, determine whether or not you hit them, and analyze why or why not. Analyze client data -- Come up with your ideal client profile but remember that high paying isn't the same as high value. Employee performance reviews -- If you have a team, conduct an annual performance review to acknowledge achievements, identify areas for improvement, and set clear expectations for next year. Step 4: Refine Your Vision, Mission, and Values Let's dig deeper into your mission, vision, and values, which are at the heart of mission-driven businesses. Reassess your mission and vision -- Ask whether your mission or vision has evolved or shifted and update your mission and vision statements if necessary. Clarify your core values -- Just like with your mission and vision, reflect on your core values and update them if necessary. Step 5: Set Strategic Goals For 2025 After reflecting on the past, let's look forward by setting achievable, flexible goals. Set SMART goals -- Aim to set goals that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound. Break down goals into actionable steps -- Know the next, right step to make your goals less overwhelming and chart a clear path forward. Build in flexibility - The market, economy, and client needs are always evolving. Build checkpoints into your plan and make course corrections as needed. Step 6: Tidy Organizational Processes Don't overlook the operational side of your business to save yourself headaches and hours in 2025. Audit your systems and tools -- Review the software, apps, and systems you are using, take note of the tools you aren't using, and automate repetitive tasks. Organize digital files -- Organize digital files in clearly labeled folders to easily find essential documents. Review contracts and legal documents - Check that your contracts and legal documents with vendors, clients, and employees are up-to-date and compliant.

In episode 624, Megan chats to Danielle Hayden about developing a healthy mindset when it comes to business spending and why wise business investments pay off. Danielle is a CPA, author, Co-Founder and CEO of Kickstart Accounting. She is a seasoned Chief Financial Officer who is rewriting what it means to provide bookkeeping and consulting services to high-earning female business owners. The Kickstart Accounting Inc. team is the one-stop-shop that provides their clients with bookkeeping services as a tiered system that grows with the business as needed. Additionally, they offer online courses (think all things money mindset), payroll services and tax consulting services.

In this episode, you'll learn about using an accounting system to track income and expenses, how to align spending with business goals, and invest in areas like advertising and marketing. Key points discussed include: - Invest in your business to grow, don't just cut spending: Cutting back on necessary expenses can jeopardize your business growth. Instead, invest in areas that will support your goals. - Know your numbers monthly: Having an accounting system and reviewing your finances monthly will help you make informed decisions and avoid overspending. - Align spending with your intentions: Determine your business goals for the next 12 months and ensure your spending aligns with those intentions. - Consistency builds trust: Showing up consistently, whether with content or marketing, sends a message that you are a reliable business. - Start with one investment, more will follow: Begin with one strategic investment, and other opportunities will reveal themselves as you progress. - Outsource tasks outside your expertise: Don't try to do everything yourself; outsource bookkeeping and other tasks that are not your zone of genius. - Advertising and marketing are key investments: Prioritize spending on advertising and marketing to support business growth, but be patient and consistent with your efforts. - Believe in yourself and your business: Your mindset and the messages you send to the universe through your investments can impact your success. - Review and adjust spending regularly: Reassess your spending and align it with your evolving business goals and life stages.

“The secret of change is to focus all your energy not on fighting the old but on building the new.” ~ SocratesWhat are you building?Wise words, right? Let's be honest—Socrates didn't have to deal with email inboxes or social media.Change was easier when your biggest distractions were donkeys.Still, his message holds up. If you're tired of replaying your greatest bad habits hits… (Procrastination: The Remix, anyone?), it's time to focus on building the new.Key IdeasChange is constant: Everything bound by time is changing—including you. Whether you like it or not, life keeps moving forward.Let go of your EX—the past: Whether it's a toxic habit, a dead-end goal, or your undying love for midnight ice cream binges, clinging to the old only makes it harder to build the new. The past is like that annoying ex—it's not helping you grow, so why keep holding on?Build, don't battle: Ever tried arguing with yourself? It's exhausting. Telling yourself you'll “definitely start tomorrow” only to repeat the same old habits feels like shadowboxing your brain. Instead, channel that energy into ACTION. Dust off that dream—like writing that book you've been “starting” since 2012— take the first step.Start small and keep it real: Plato said, "The beginning is the most important part of the work." Translation? S.T.A.R.T.—Simple. Today. Actions. Repeated. Tracked. Quit over-researching, overthinking, or waiting for the perfect moment. Just start—even if it's messy.Time is short: As Brian Tracy put it, “There's never enough time to do everything, but there's always enough time to do the most important things.” Stop waiting…Today The Building Begins!Build habits like a boss: Use the P.A.R.R. method—Plan, Act, Record, Reassess. You're a human, not a rodent stuck in a habit loop. (see below)Listen while you build: Subscribe to the Habits 2 Goals podcast—it's like having a coach in your pocket, but without the shouting.Level up with accountability: Upgrade to a paid Annual Premium subscription and gain access to our upcoming Peer Accountability and Small Coaching group.Go PRO: Enroll in the 8-Day Habit Mastery Workshop for on-demand, next-level habit and skill development.

Hey, it's Luci Dumas, and today's solo episode is a little different because I am sort of “journaling” about my experiences around the topic and looking for my own answers as I explore a topic that's been on my mind lately: motivation. Specifically, how we can find it, sustain it, and even question whether we always need it. Is it okay to just be sometimes? To live a simpler life without constantly striving for the next big thing? It's a big question, and one that I've been pondering deeply.As I thought about motivation, I kept coming back to Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs. You might remember it from a psychology class—it's that pyramid of five human needs. It got me wondering: can understanding these levels help us reignite our drive when it feels like the spark is fading?In this episode, I break down each level of Maslow's pyramid: • The basics like food and shelter. • Our need for safety and security. • The desire for connection and belonging. • Building self-esteem and feeling accomplished. • And finally, the quest for self-actualization—living our best, most fulfilling life.I'll share some thoughts on how these needs might be influencing your motivation—or lack of it. Plus, we'll tackle that ever-present voice saying, “I should be doing more,” and decide if it's always true. Spoiler: sometimes it's okay to give yourself grace.Some of the ideas on how to become or stay motivated I explore are suggestions to • Identify the Blockages: • Set Goals Aligned with Your Needs: • Reflect and Reassess: • Leverage Higher Levels for InspirationTune in for a mix of self-reflection, practical tips, and maybe even a spark to get you motivated—or at least, to help you feel okay with where you are right now.Be sure to check out www.lucidumascoaching.com and feel free to book a 20 minute chatConnect with Photography Business Coach Luci Dumas: Website Email: luci@lucidumas.comInstagram FacebookYouTube

“I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times.” ~Bruce LeeNapoleon Dynamite got it right!Between you and your big, shiny goal is a gatekeeper.Any clue?It's the difference between doing and dreaming.It's skills.Do you possess, at a high level, the skills your goal requires?Identify 3-5 of the key SKILLS that your goal demands, and list them.Here's the kicker: skills and habits arrive together, like Batman and Robin—like salt and pepper—one invariably brings the other.Picture this: you want to write a book, run a marathon, or play the piano like a pro. Big dreams, to be sure.However, without the requisite skills/habits, these dreams will remain dreams.Is playing the piano a skill or a habit? Drum roll please: It's both!Skills don't just appear; they grow out of relentless, boring, intentional practice—repetition.How does one intentionally cultivate habits and skills?By following the P.A.R.R. method for habit development (published within The Habit Factor®). P.A.R.R. stands for Plan, Act, Record, and Reassess.Do you think this P.A.R.R. methodology sounds tedious?You're correct. It is.It's also where the rubber—your intention—meets the road—your actions.It's where progress, momentum, and ultimately greatness hide. Exhibit One: Steph Curry's tedium. To him of course, it's anything but tedious. Steph teaches us that it's the silent, stubborn act of showing up consistently, practicing that one shot or “kick” 10,000 times until you can do it in your sleep.“You are rewarded in public for what you have intensely practiced and refined in private.” ~Tony RobbinsSo, what's it going to be?Will you dream about your goals or practice them into existence? Decide which skills/habits you need today to move closer to your most important goal.Your future self is watching.Enjoy the show!~mgEager to put this into practice?For personalized instruction on the P.A.R.R. methodology, check out the upcoming 8-Day Habit Mastery Workshop—an affordable program designed to help you build lasting habits and skills.

One of my pet peeves is experts who appear to know it all and never struggle. And in our Instagram-filtered world, this is only getting worse. But guess what? Everyone has their off days! As a wardrobe stylist with over 20 years of experience, I believe in the power of sharing our challenges to inspire and empower others, to let you know that, if you're struggling with your wardrobe, you're not alone. Because of that, today I'm sharing my personal style struggles and the steps I'm taking to overcome them. I share my own experiences with body changes and how I went back to basics to reassess what works for my current shape. I also talk about how I tackled my shoe situation to elevate my outfits. Awareness is the first step to making meaningful changes! I hope these takeaways resonate with you and encourage you to embrace your own style journey. In This Episode: Experts, including wardrobe stylists, also face struggles and challenges - you're not alone! The importance of giving yourself grace when dealing with body changes, and to actively seek solutions rather than remaining stuck in frustration. Upgrading foundational garments, like underwear, can significantly improve how clothes fit and feel - it's worth the effort to find the right styles. Reassess your wardrobe and be mindful of how your body shape and style preferences may have changed over time. How to build a more satisfying and functional wardrobe by identifying the reasons behind your style struggles. Your wardrobe should be a source of joy and confidence. Remember, everything in style is "figureoutable", but it starts with identifying the root of your struggles and being willing to put in the work to find solutions.
