Podcasts about stop running

What happens when a global call center veteran steps into the automotive industry and starts questioning the way dealerships have always done things?  In this episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams sit down with Lee Harris, current Internet Director at Minnesota Truck Headquarters, a BPO veteran turned automotive innovator who is bringing a completely different perspective to dealership customer engagement. "Your most valuable asset that you have in your dealership, it's not the cars on the floor, it's not the cars in the showroom, it's the people." – Lee Harris With years of experience leading high-volume customer service, operations, and technology organizations, Lee is taking lessons from outside automotive and applying them to one of the industry's biggest opportunities: how dealerships communicate with, follow up with, and ultimately serve today's customer. The conversation dives into the evolution of the traditional BDC, the growing role of AI and automation, the importance of stronger processes and training, and why technology should make dealership teams MORE effective without removing the human connection.  "AI doubles in capacity and capability every two weeks." – Lee Harris If you're a Dealer Principal, GM, BDC leader, sales manager, or automotive professional trying to prepare for where customer engagement is headed next, you're going to want to hear this conversation! Key Takeaways: ✅ Lee Harris highlights the value of integrating advanced AI tools and CRM customization to enhance client services' effectiveness within car dealerships. ✅ The automotive sector often lags in adopting modern technology, with Harris noting the industry's typical five to seven-year lag behind bleeding-edge solutions. ✅ Personalization and the human element remain crucial in customer interactions, even when leveraging high-end AI tools to streamline processes. ✅ Fostering a team environment where personnel investment in training and morale is prioritized can drive substantial success, as evidenced by record-breaking sales figures at MTH. ✅ Harris advises dealership leaders to rethink traditional managerial roles by emphasizing leadership qualities that inspire and genuinely connect with employees.   About Lee Harris Lee Harris is a seasoned professional with nearly three decades of experience in the Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) industry. He began his career as an agent and ascended to senior executive roles at large organizations like Conduent, Xerox Services, and Sutherland Healthcare. Harris has been involved with operations in numerous countries, managing substantial revenues and diverse teams. Currently, he is the Director of Business Development at Minnesota Truck Headquarters (MTH) in St. Cloud, where his expertise in technology, customer experience, and process development is helping redefine automotive sales strategies.     AI Revolution in Automotive BDC: Transforming Client Services in Dealerships   Key Takeaways: Adapting New Technologies: CRM technologies are increasingly seen as outdated; AI tools are proving indispensable for operational efficiency in auto dealerships. Focus on Human Capital: Building a dedicated, well-trained team with a strong culture and synergy is vital for success. Engagement Optimization: Increasing customer engagement through technology, particularly AI, is paramount for maximizing showroom visits and sales success.   The Shift from Traditional BDC to AI Integration in Dealerships In the ever-evolving landscape of automotive sales, dealerships are faced with the need to innovate or risk being left behind. This conversation brings to light the transformational journey from traditional Customer Relationship Management (CRM) systems to Artificial Intelligence (AI) driven strategies. As Lee Harris from Minnesota Truck Headquarters shares, "AI doubles in capacity and capability every two weeks," underscoring the rapid advancement and adoption of technology that is necessary for modern dealerships to thrive. The podcast participants echo a pivotal revelation: the traditional CRM's limitations in dynamically adapting to ever-changing dealership needs. Sean V. Bradley emphasizes, "CRM is antiquated technology now," advocating for a shift towards tools like Podium's AI. This technology steps beyond static scripts, offering dynamic, personalized communication powered by an extensive knowledge base. This ability, Harris notes, allows dealerships to handle communications with precision, enhancing customer interaction and satisfaction. Through this integration, dealerships empower their sales teams to focus on high-impact interactions by letting AI handle routine, low-complexity tasks. Bradley states, "If we delegate all the tier one remedial activities to artificial intelligence, […] now my humans can focus on higher levels." This delegation not only optimizes human resource capabilities but also maximizes lead conversion, showcasing the multilateral benefits of AI over traditional CRM systems.   Emphasizing Human Capital and Leadership In the broader scheme of automotive business development, human capital remains the cornerstone of any successful dealership. Lee Harris passionately argues for investing in people, expressing, "Your people are the most precious thing that you have in your group, in your responsibility." This sentiment is a cornerstone for transformational leadership and modern business strategies within dealerships. The discussion probes into what sets excellent dealerships apart — their approach to nurturing and investing in a highly competent and motivated workforce. For Harris, leading a team goes beyond managing transactions; it's about cultivating a culture of excellence where team members understand their value and are equipped with the right tools and training. By stating, "Invest both professionally and personally into those individuals to be successful," Harris emphasizes the significance of a dedicated and well-supported team for achieving dealership objectives. Training and development play an integral role in this framework. Dealer Synergy's Bradley On Demand platform is applauded for its comprehensive training, ensuring that team members "don't even get to touch a phone until they are through the initial training," a practice that ingrains a regiment of quality assurance and preparedness foundational to operational success.   Revolutionizing Customer Engagement A recurring theme throughout the dialogue is the pivotal role of customer engagement strategies in dictating sales and dealership success. The integration of AI is poised to revolutionize how dealerships engage with prospective customers, significantly bridging gaps between inquiries and successful sales. Bradley notes the chronic issue of low engagement levels, stating that most dealership efforts result in "not talking to somebody." This reveals a critical area of opportunity — the need for effective engagement strategies. AI tools like Podium's Jerry 2.0 transform engagement dynamics by facilitating omnipresent communication, ensuring customer interactions are timely, relevant, and personalized. In integrating AI, dealerships can remarkably enhance appointment show rates, which Harris notes as being "73% appointment show ratio" — a staggering figure above industry averages. This indicates AI's profound impact on bridging communication gaps, ensuring prospects are guided efficiently through the sales funnel. The potential of AI in this capacity is magnified by its ability to analyze and learn from interactions, delivering nuanced conversations that are tailored to client needs and potentially increasing showroom traffic and sales. Harris concludes, adopting "convenience and a friction-free process" is essential for translating client inquiries into satisfied customers, highlighting AI's role in crafting seamless customer journeys. In the evolving landscape of automotive sales and services, the dealership's adaptability to AI-driven methodologies is not just a competitive advantage; it is becoming a standard of future-forward operations. The rich discussions from industry leaders cast a spotlight on the profound changes AI brings, demonstrating a roadmap for others to follow, where smart technology and human empathy work in tandem toward exceptional dealership success.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors: ➼ Podium: The AI Platform Powering the Modern Dealership.

If you've been pushing through exhaustion, ignoring your own needs to take care of everyone else, and wondering why you still feel worn down no matter how hard you try, this episode is for you. In this episode, we look at an old story about two woodcutters and what it teaches us about holistic health, faith-based rest, and why sharpening your axe matters more than working harder. This episode is for the Christian woman who is ready to take real steps toward healing. If you've tried supplement after supplement, diet after diet, and you're still exhausted, this conversation will help you understand what might actually be missing. The Story of the Two Woodcutters Two woodcutters, Jake and Jonas, competed to see who could chop the most wood by the end of the day. Jonas never stopped. Jake stopped every hour. By sundown, Jake had won, not despite the breaks, but because of them. Every time he stopped, he was sharpening his saw. This story usually gets told as a lesson in productivity. But it points to something deeper about how we care for our bodies and our health. What Ecclesiastes 10:10 Teaches Us About Sharpening Our Axe Ecclesiastes 10:10 says, "If the iron is blunt and one does not sharpen the edge, he must use more strength, but wisdom helps one to succeed." A dull axe forces us to work harder for less result. The same is true in our health. When we neglect the basics, our bodies have to work harder just to keep up, and we still fall short. Why We Should Ask God How to Sharpen Our Saw Instead of guessing our way through diets, supplements, and health trends, we can ask God how to care for our specific bodies. He knows us best. Sharpening our saw might look different for each of us, but it starts with the same question: what does God want me to prioritize? Jesus Modeled Rest and Intentionality Mark 1:35 describes Jesus rising early, while it was still dark, to go pray alone. When His disciples told Him everyone was looking for Him, He didn't rush back to meet every need. He said, "Let us go on to the next towns that I may preach there also, for that is why I came out." Jesus was intentional. He rested with God first, and He didn't try to be everything to everyone. That's a pattern worth following, especially for women who feel responsible for holding everything together. Practical Ways to Sharpen Your Axe Sharpening your saw looks different for everyone, but a few examples came up in this episode: Spending unhurried time with God, even before the day gets busy Watching what you eat and food prepping ahead of time Getting support from a friend, therapist, pastor, or church community Swapping out personal care or cleaning products for cleaner options Spending time with friends, not just family Moving your body in a way you enjoy, whether that's kickboxing, walking, or light strength training Reducing stress wherever possible, including something as simple as stopping to eat at a set time None of these are quick fixes. They're the ongoing, unglamorous habits that keep us from running on empty. Time-Stamped Highlights 00:00 — Introduction: your health might be suffering because you're skipping the important things 00:00–01:25 — The story of the two woodcutters, Jake and Jonas 01:25 — Ecclesiastes 10:10 on sharpening a dull blade 01:52 — What it means to sharpen our saw when it comes to health 02:21 — Mark 1:35, Jesus rising early to pray before the demands of the day 03:19 — Jesus' intentionality: "that is why I came out" 04:17 — Practical examples: food prep, community support, and personal care swaps 04:44 — A hospice worker's insight on end-of-life regrets around friendship 05:13 — Joyful movement and protecting your relationships during busy seasons 06:09 — The role of strength training as we age 06:37 — Reducing stress as one of the most important things you can do for your health 07:07 — A nurse's perspective on burnout from skipping breaks and meals 07:36 — Why God, not trial and error, is the best source of wisdom for your body Key Takeaways Working harder isn't always the answer. Sometimes what your body needs is rest, not more effort. Sharpening your axe isn't one-size-fits-all. What God asks you to prioritize may look different than what He asks someone else to prioritize. Jesus modeled rest and intentional boundaries, even when others wanted more of His time. Small, consistent habits, like eating on time, moving your body, and staying connected to friends, matter more than we often give them credit for. This episode isn't medical advice. It's an invitation to slow down, reflect, and ask God what your body actually needs. Ready to Stop Running on Empty?

SHOW NOTES   In Podcast Episode 387, “When Will You Stop Running?” Kim discusses the vivid imagery in Jeremiah 2 that describes the Israelites' unfaithfulness. The Lord asked them: “When will you stop running? When will you stop panting after other gods?” Good questions for us to answer today, don't you think?   Our focal passage for this episode is Jeremiah 2:23-37, with 23-25 as the focal verses:   23 “You say, ‘That's not true!     I haven't worshiped the images of Baal!' But how can you say that?     Go and look in any valley in the land! Face the awful sins you have done.     You are like a restless female camel     desperately searching for a mate. 24 You are like a wild donkey,     sniffing the wind at mating time. Who can restrain her lust?     Those who desire her don't need to search,     for she goes running to them! 25 When will you stop running?     When will you stop panting after other gods? But you say, ‘Save your breath.     I'm in love with these foreign gods,     and I can't stop loving them now!'     WEEKLY ENGAGEMENT FEATURE:   To which gods have you been running?   Additional Resources and Scriptures:   Facebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/encouragingothersinlovingjesus X - https://x.com/eoinlovingjesus?s=21&t=YcRjZQUpvP7FrJmm7Pe1hg INSTAGRAM -  https://www.instagram.com/encouragingothersinlovingjesus/ “Encouraging Others in Loving Jesus” YouTube Channel: Check it out at https://www.youtube.com/@EncouragingOthersInLovingJesus   I WANT TO BEGIN A PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST.   RESOURCES USED FOR BOOK OF Jeremiah/Lamentation PODCASTS: “The Wiersbe Bible Commentary: The Complete Old Testament OT in One Volume” “Christ-Centered Exposition: Exalting Jesus in Jeremiah & Lamentations by Steven Smith “Life Application Study Bible” “The Swindoll Study Bible: NLT” by Charles R.

In this episode of Business Your Way, host Caryn Gillen explores what life coaches and small business owners can gain by treating themselves like elite athletes.She breaks down what high performance really requires: honest self-awareness about your energy limits (like knowing you're a "one-experience-a-day" introvert), rejecting depletion as a badge of honor, and building personal systems (so you stop relearning the same lessons about what works for you). Can anyone relate?!

There is something you have been running from. I know because running is what I do. Running is what most people do when the thing ahead looks too hard or too uncertain or too likely to end in failure. Running is the default. Running is the escape. Running is the way we avoid the thing that is waiting for us. We run by staying busy. By keeping the schedule full. By never stopping long enough to look at the thing we are running from. We run by staying in the relationship that is not working because leaving would require looking at why it is not working. We run by keeping the job that drains us because finding a new one would require admitting that this one is wrong. We run by performing okay every day because being honest about not being okay would require doing something about it.

In episode 188 of 'On the Whorizon' SWCEO founder and host ‪MelRoseMichaels‬ gets honest about a mistake that cost her at least $5,000 and likely far more once you factor in the years she let it sit on her to-do list untouched. This is not a story about something going wrong. It is a story about a strategy she already knew about, already believed in, and kept pushing off anyway. And what happened when she finally stopped.This episode is for the creator who knows how to make money but cannot seem to break through to the next level. MelRose breaks down why plateaus happen, what the real bottleneck usually is, and how thinking like an operator instead of just a creator changes everything about how you make decisions in your business. She walks through the decision filter she developed after that $5,000 lesson, the one variable testing method that makes growth actually measurable, and why the opportunity you need is almost always the task sitting at the bottom of your to-do list.

Most D2C brands have tried YouTube ads. Almost none of them are getting credit for what those ads are actually doing. Brett Curry, CEO of OMG Commerce and the guy behind YouTube growth for brands like Native, Arctic, and Dude Wipes, makes the case that in-platform reporting is under-counting YouTube's real impact by roughly 70% — and that the brands leaning in right now are about to widen the gap on everyone still dabbling.This one goes deep: incrementality testing, omnichannel attribution, creative frameworks, and why your Meta winners almost certainly won't survive on YouTube.Inside the episode:Why a 1.0 in-platform ROAS on YouTube is probably a 3.4 in reality — and the 190-test incrementality study behind that numberHow Arctic drove a 25% Walmart sales lift (and 230% branded search lift) by running YouTube in select markets — measured scientifically against matched control marketsThe three creative types that actually work on YouTube: hero/brand films, single-creator UGC, and the specific criteria your Meta winners need to meet before you bother testing themHow to diagnose a broken YouTube ad using just three metrics: view rate, click-through rate, and average watch time per impression — and what each one tells you to fixWhy campaign structure for retail lift looks completely different than for D2C sales — and how to set up for both at once—Sponsored by OMG Commerce - go to https://www.omgcommerce.com/contact and request your FREE strategy session today!—‍Chapters:[0:00] Introduction: Why Most Brands Still Suck at YouTube[1:51] Audience Poll: Who's Actually Winning on YouTube?[3:15] The Core Problem: Bringing a Meta Mindset to YouTube[4:05] YouTube as Trust: Creators, TV, and Time Spent[8:14] Incrementality 101: Measuring the Real Impact of Your Ads[11:22] How Incremental Is YouTube?

Most people think pressure is punishment. But what if pressure is actually the thing forming you into who you were created to become? In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian Crawford and Bri unpack the hidden relationship between pressure, belief, purpose, resilience, depression, faith, and becoming "one of one." They explore why pressure reveals what's already inside of you, why counterfeit people avoid resistance, and why greatness is impossible without pain, refinement, and internal transformation. This conversation dives deep into: Why belief matters under pressure The mental battle behind leadership How pressure reveals insecurity and purpose Why resilience is disappearing in modern culture The difference between counterfeit and authentic people Depression, hopelessness, and fighting for meaning Why becoming "one of one" requires fire If you're in a season where life feels heavy, uncertain, or overwhelming — this episode is for you.   Pre-Order the Book Pre-order the book here: http://magnumopusproject.co       If this episode resonated with you, share it with someone who needs it.

Working hard on the wrong thing and you can feel it, but you can't see it from inside the jar. In this episode, I break down the Decision Call format, what it is, why it works, and the pattern showing up across four very different SaaS partner businesses I ran calls with recently. One was a Microsoft partner at $800K running two business models pretending to be one. One was a Salesforce solopreneur serving nonprofits who couldn't pay her real rate. One was a NetSuite partner whose revenue had dropped from $75K a month to under $15K. One was a Zoho partner building bespoke AI with no packaged offer. Different platforms, different countries, same problem. If you're stuck on your number one challenge and need clarity to act on it, this one is for you.Resources and LinksNeed help with your WHO and WHAT decisions?

Most men treat Easter like a finish line. The candles go out, the celebration ends, and life goes back to normal without any change. But the Resurrection isn't a closing chapter. It's a starting gun. And if you walked away from Easter Sunday the same man you were before, this episode is for you.Fr. Dominic breaks open the readings from the 4th Sunday of Easter (Good Shepherd Sunday) and delivers something every Catholic man needs to hear. It's a call to action rooted in the power of the Resurrection.Peter stands up before the Sanhedrin and speaks with such force that the crowd isn't just moved emotionally. They're cut to the heart. They don't ask, "What should we think?" They ask, "What should we do?" That's what the Holy Spirit produces in a man. Fr. Dominic also tackles suffering head-on. Christian suffering isn't something to avoid but something to expect and embrace. If you're living your faith out loud in the world today, the resistance will come. That's not a sign you're doing something wrong. That's a sign you're doing something right.And then there's the Good Shepherd. Fr. Dominic shares a story from his time in the Holy Land. What it reveals about us is convicting.Here's the challenge: Too many baptized, confirmed Catholic men are fully initiated and completely disengaged. You have everything you need and you're sitting on the sideline. That's not the life you were made for. The Resurrection happened for you. Stop leaving it at the church doors.

Most Catholic dads are working hard in their home. The problem? They're not working on it.

"You're afraid of feeling the uncomfortable emotions. You're already feeling it. It's a lot more work to avoid it or resist it than to actually feel it, because when you actually feel it, it doesn't last for that long." Back from a week of deep body work in Arizona, and I came home with a lot to say. Something shifted for me around the way trauma actually lives in the body, not just conceptually, but in a visceral, pinpoint-it-exactly kind of way. And it's changing how I think about the fastest path to transformation right now, in this specific moment on the planet.In this solo episode I'm getting into why so many people are feeling called to shed old versions of themselves: the patterns, the relationships, the ways of showing up that just don't fit anymore. With the outer planets shifting signs and Aries energy dominating the collective, we are in a genuine rebirth cycle. And the emotions coming up aren't a problem. They're the portal. I also share about my new Metamorphosis Method Level 1 Breathwork Certification, who it's really for, and why learning to facilitate breathwork will make you better at everything, whether you ever work with clients or not.TODAY'S HIGHLIGHTSDeep somatic healing: what a week of body work revealed about traumaWhy you're feeling called to shed what no longer fits right nowYour authentic self vs. your survival selfAnxiety is just suppressed emotion trying to move - what to do with itWhy breathwork works when everything else hasn'tThe surprising reason holding space for others accelerates your own growthThe Metamorphosis Method Level 1 Certification: The why, the what, and the who's it for**WAYS TO ENTER MY WORLD**  When you leave a review of the podcast, send us a screenshot and we'll send you a $250 credit, you can apply to anything else in my world.The Metamorphosis Method Level 1 Breathwork Certification is a 6-week intensive designed to help you use this specific breathwork modality to accelerate your own results, and hold space powerfully for others.

The Bible uses the metaphor of a marathon to illustrate the perseverance of the Christian life. It's a picture we can understand. Today, you and I are still in our race. We are on a journey of serving Jesus. We have not finished it yet. We must keep going until we reach the end.Main Points:1. Let me encourage you today. Don't let anything stop you from running this race. Don't let anything trip you up or hinder you from reaching the finish line. 2. You and I can persevere to the end. We can finish the race God has given us. We can be faithful and live for Jesus until the end of our lives. We know this is possible because God has given us everything we need for a godly life.3. Sometimes the race gets so hard that you aren't sure if you can make it. Yet, we are encouraged by this truth that if others have persevered to the end, so can we. Today's Scripture Verses:Hebrews 12:1-2 - “Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us.”2 Peter 1:3 - “His divine power has given us everything we need for a godly life through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness.”James 1:12 - “Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”Quick Links:Donate to support this podcastLeave a review on Apple PodcastsGet a copy of The 5 Minute Discipleship JournalConnect on SocialJoin The 5 Minute Discipleship Facebook Group

In this episode of Redeemed Through His Blood, Scott and Deb are joined again by Nick and Crystal for a recovery-centered conversation on Step 3: When We Stop Running the Show. Together they explore what it really means to “turn our will and our lives over to the care of God,” why surrender is so difficult, and how self-will, fear, perfectionism, and our obsession with outcomes keep us stuck. Drawing from the Big Book, personal recovery stories, and the hope of Jesus Christ, they unpack the difference between controlling inputs and trusting God with outcomes, the power of the Step 3 prayer, and the daily choice to let God direct the play. Whether you are in recovery or simply exhausted from trying to manage everything yourself, this episode offers a deeply honest invitation to trust the One who can do for us what we cannot do on our own.

The source: Feel your feelings"This zine is all about why it's important to cultivate the capacity to stay with our feelings, and how we can go about doing that. Hopefully working through the zine will help you to figure out your own emotional landscape (which feelings you tend to prefer, and which you tend to avoid). It'll also give you several possible practices for learning to stay with your feelings. Different things work for different people so it's all about figuring out what works best for you."And: https://transitionnetwork.org/More from Meg John Barker https://queercircle.org/queer-creative-health-zine-two/Read Julie's Medium Blog.SUPPORT JULIE (and the show!)DONATE to the Palestinian Children's Relief Fund AND THE Sudan Relief FundGET AN OCCASIONAL PERSONAL EMAIL FROM ME: www.makeyourdamnbedpodcast.comTUNE IN ON INSTAGRAM AND YOUTUBESUBSCRIBE FOR BONUS CONTENT ON PATREON.The opinions expressed by Julie Merica and Make Your Damn Bed Podcast are intended for entertainment purposes only.

You're not behind. You're just running too fast. Most leaders think the answer to overwhelm is speed—more efficiency, tighter schedules, faster execution. But what if the real problem isn't that you're doing too little? What if it's that you're running at an unsustainable pace that's hurting you, your family, your work, and your team? In this final episode of our Five Spheres of an H2 Leader series, we're tackling pace, how fast you're running, why you're running that fast, and what it's costing you. Most leaders execute from anxiety and shame, not focus and clarity. They're running FROM something instead of running TO something. And when you run too fast for too long, everything suffers—your health, your relationships, your creativity, and your team's culture. Alan breaks down the difference between personal activation (how fast you're running) and communal activation (how fast you're driving your team to run). And he introduces the concept that changes everything: effectiveness over efficiency. What You'll Learn: Why most leaders execute from anxiety and shame instead of focus and clarity—and how to shift from running FROM something to running TO something Personal activation vs. communal activation: how your pace directly impacts everyone around you (whether you realize it or not) The efficiency trap: why focusing on "doing all the things as fast as possible" kills creativity, presence, and quality Peter Drucker's definition of effectiveness: doing the right things well—not all the things quickly How to identify if you're running at a sustainable pace: the 1-10 self-assessment and why most leaders overestimate their capacity Four things that suffer when you run too fast: your health (cardiac issues, stress, sleep), those you love (presence, connection), your work (creativity, quality, enjoyment), and your team (culture, morale, burnout) The seasonal awareness principle: why some sprint seasons are okay—but only if you know they're seasons with a beginning and an end Why hurry is literally killing you: the science on how chronic rushing impacts everything from heart health to weight to sleep quality The communal cost of your pace: how your speed becomes your team's speed—and why your anxiety cascades down the org chart Sabbath as the killer app: one day a week where you get to just be human, not a leader—and why this weekly rhythm recalibrates your entire pace The scarcity mentality test: if you find yourself saying "there's never enough time to ___," you're running from scarcity, not toward clarity How to move from efficiency (doing all things fast) to effectiveness (doing the right things well) Why you're probably not behind: the lie that you need to run faster, and the truth that you need to run smarter The Right Side Up Journal: a 10-minute daily practice to focus your day, prioritize what matters, and remember that your son's basketball game tonight is more important than your task list Key Insight: You have way more influence than you think. The people around you are watching how you run, feeling your anxiety, and absorbing your pace. When you slow down, you give your team permission to breathe. When you focus on effectiveness over efficiency, you create space for creativity, presence, and quality. When you Sabbath weekly, you remind yourself—and your team—that the world runs just fine without you grinding 24/7. Reflection Questions: How sustainable is the pace you're running at right now? (1-10) What would your family say about your pace? What would your team say about the pace you're setting? Are you running FROM something (anxiety, shame, scarcity) or TO something (purpose, clarity, mission)? What are the 3-4 right things you should be doing right now—and are you doing them well, or just fast? Series Context: This is the fifth and final episode in our Five Spheres of an H2 Leader series. The five spheres are: Influence - How you wield your relational and positional power Health - How you live integrated and aligned to values and needs Self-Awareness - How your emotions, assets, and liabilities impact others Design - How you maximize your talents and abilities Pace - How you move and drive others to move If you haven't listened to the full series, go back and start with Episode 1. These five spheres work together as a tapestry—below-the-surface aspects of leadership that won't show up on scorecards or P&L statements, but deeply affect you, your family, your team, and your organization. Resources Mentioned: Right Side Up Journal (available on Amazon) - 10-minute daily planning tool, 90-day process, 4th edition coming soon Peter Drucker's work on effectiveness vs. efficiency The Five Spheres Recap: This series has been about things below the surface—aspects of leadership that don't show up on websites or win columns, but shape everything. The higher you are on the org chart, the more these spheres impact the people around you. We've covered influence (your power), health (your integration), self-awareness (your emotional impact), design (your unique wiring), and now pace (your speed and sustainability). These aren't destinations. You don't arrive and get a trophy. You're in direction of becoming a healthy, high-impact leader. And that's the journey we're on together. Want More? We believe you are designed by a Designer who invites you to co-design your life with Him. If you don't believe that, you'll just get pulled along by your life—by social media, email, news cycles, and other people's urgency. But we believe it's intelligent, personal, and purposeful. You are invited to collaborate in your own life. For coaching, consulting, and resources to help you lead as a Healthy + High Impact leader, visit h2leadership.com.
