The Empathy Edge
Lauree Ostrofsky: Hey Rockstar Leader, Don't Forget About YOU

The Empathy Edge

Most high achievers never look back and see how far they've come. They tend to focus on perfection and not wanting to let anyone down. Because of their outward focus on others - colleagues, customers, or employees - They often don't know how to be empathetic and tender with themselves.Empathy starts with self-awareness and self-care so leaders who want to achieve their goals would be wise to practice tenderness and empathy for themselves first. This kind of self-reflection and tenderness for self will help them be an effective and inspiring leader for others.Today, author and leadership coach Lauree Ostrofsky joins us to talk about self-empathy and owning your leadership style. Lauree shares how challenging and yet worthwhile self-empathy can be. We discuss the downside of empathy and how to balance focusing on others with caring for yourself. She talks about how to develop our sense of self so we don't fear reinvention, we can take better risks, and avoid unnecessary worry or anxiousness that doesn't serve us. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:Dig into your fears and discomforts. It may just be an opportunity that is outside your comfort zone and making you feel vulnerable. Fear is an opportunity. Make a list of compliments you receive as you receive them - we need the physical evidence of what we have accomplished and where we have been to see how we've gained the confidence we have now.Sometimes you have to give yourself space before you can give space to the other person to hear and empathize with what they're saying and needing. Own who you are without apology. You can invite people in and invite them to also own who they are. "There's a way to value people and value yourself at the same time, and it really takes understanding of yourself." — Lauree OstrofskyFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

In this episode of the Impostor Syndrome Files, we talk about managing the pressure to be an A student at work. Many of us felt really comfortable in school because we were given very clear instructions. The workplace, unfortunately, does not come with clear instructions, yet we cling to old habits for the illusion of emotional safety these habits bring us. My guest this week, Lauree Ostrofsky, helps introverts, A students and overthinkers to more confidently take their next leap. Here Lauree and I explore how deciding for ourselves what's good enough can help us manage perfectionism and begin to loosen the unrealistic standards we hold ourselves to so that we can do more of what is meaningful to us.About My GuestLauree helps career-minded introverts, overthinkers and A students clarify their next leap and feel more confident putting themselves out there.

"It's doing what works for us in order to allow ourselves to move to the next place and to feel empowered and confident about that. I think fear is part of that. It's our relationship with fear that allows us to determine our own destinies." We are so excited to welcome Lauree Ostrofsky to the podcast! Lauree has been an integral part of Courtney's entrepreneurial journey over the last several years and so it only seems right and fitting that they talk today about fear and how it shows up when you're on the cusp of something life changing. Much of Lauree's current narrative begins with a devastating medical diagnosis. With candor, vulnerability, and honesty, Lauree shares the story of how her brain tumor helped her explore and work with her "A student" tendencies in a new way. Courtney and Lauree also dive into the linguistic complexities around courage, fear, and being brave. Lauree gifts listeners with strategies that she has utilized on her own journey, as well as in her professional coaching work, including how to speak kindly and softly to yourself in times of fear. Lauree and Courtney also explore the role of trusting one's self in overcoming fear and extend the ongoing offer of being your pep squad whenever you need a reminder of how awesome you are! Sharp eared listeners may hear a little noise in the background -- that is Courtney's elderly black lab Montana making her on-air debut! We see it as a gentle reminder that we keep it real here at Pragmatic Alchemy!

Book Insights are formal, structured summary, analysis and exploration of a bestselling nonfiction book. Each episode is read by a professional voice actor and will introduce a new title selected specifically for its value to your work and life. Book Lounge episodes are casual discussions about the book, the author, and anything else that comes along through the course of conversation. It's more of a broad chat about how the book relates to current, everyday life. Should I listen to both the Book Insight and the Book Lounge episode on the same book? Sure! Each episode works fine as a standalone piece, so no requirement to listen to both or to listen in any particular order, but we definitely recommend (and think you'll enjoy!) both. Think of it like reading a book and liking it so much you want to chat about it on the porch with a friend. That is the vibe at the Book Lounge. Like what you hear?

Jacinta Bunnell brightens the studio with her creativity and enthusiasm for her feelings. Jacinta is an artist, activist, author and co-founder of B.R.A.W.L. She shares how studying Philosophy helped to shape her ability to think critically and how that in conjunction with taking care of children helped her to see how important it is to feel safe to color outside the lines. Speaking of, she has 4 very important, Queer positive and gender bending, coloring books that are opening up the lines and the boxes that kids have historically found themselves in. She recently began supporting Planned Parenthood through her art activism where she helps young people create art telling their story about how Planned Parenthood has helped them. You can see all that goodness at iluvplannedparenthood on Instagram. Finally, if you need helping sifting through belongings and getting rid of what you no longer need, Jacinta is the Marie Condo of the Hudson Valley. Jenny Shulkin of OoLaLoom joins us and talks about how she got into weaving and the intricacies of weaving and dying. How she is finding her way in her craft staying true to herself and the way she wants to be weaving, creating and learning and evolving the business side of her work, and how she stays motivated and pushes through or gives herself permission to stop when she wants to. Self care today takes us backward, or forward, stuffed animals and how slowing down is important for everything to continue to exist, including YOU! Tune into the podcast Secret Feminist Agenda that Shana recommends if you want to learn more about the art of slow everything and how stuffed animals may save your health and your sanity.

I was first introduced to Lauree via email. Like any normal person in this digital age, I did some internet sleuthing. And when I did, I instantly thought, “I so want to know this woman.” During our conversation, she opened up and shared her story of how she went from being a straight-A student and type-A personality to someone that felt completely out of control after a life changing event. In early 2004, Lauree had an MRI to determine the source of some inner ear issues she was experiencing. That was when she was diagnosed with a brain tumor. The news was completely unexpected. It made her question everything she knew about her life, her world, and having control of everything in and around it. In this episode, Lauree walks us through before, after and during her experience and tells us how she is going through life now. Her story is one of resilience. She helps us understand how we can be both serious and silly at the same time. As well as, remain structured and scared. She also shares how mantras helped her heal, regain focus, and clarity.Lauree is our kind of people! This is an inspiring interview that you absolutely should not miss.
