Podcasts about strengthsfinder strengths

Welcome to our Comeback episode! As what the title says, this episode is dedicated to the introduction of someone who is going to take the reins of hosting this podcast soon. We will also be talking a little bit about what’s in store and what have we been doing in the months that we weren’t airing. This change could not have come at a more perfect time than now. I am truly excited for what’s ahead. Stick around as we usher in a new beginning of an even more awesome podcast for you.   About Shawnell Miller Shawnell is an expert in staffing and recruitment having worked in the industry since graduating college.

Deep and honest conversations is Shawnell’s jam and that makes her a perfect person for the role of coach and host of this podcast.   Shawnell’s Top 5 StrengthsFinder Strengths 1. Futuristic 2. Positivity 3. Achiever 4. Responsibility 5. Developer   Key Takeaways In the midst of all of that low, I do believe that you shouldn't just get over your obstacles. Use them as that step up to the next level. As you shift from solo entrepreneur to having a team, your core values are important, and they absolutely influence, but they're not the business. It's important to have a place where you can listen in on some of the challenges that people are facing because sometimes those same challenges are the ones you're facing too. When you're in your calling and doing what you love, you truly will feel it I wanted to become as fully educated and how I can be the best version of myself.

This week’s episode is about Alissa's recent (and ongoing health journey). She’s a believer that taking care of our personal health is vital to being our best selves. You can be successful in your business without being in good physical health, but you won’t have nearly the success you’d have if you were healthy. It is really an important step in becoming confident enough and it naturally just spills over into other areas of your life. We all sort of “know” Alissa by this episode. We know that she wants to be successful not only in her business but also in other areas that she desires to be successful in as well. Join us in this episode where we talk about muscles, diets, discipline, and yes, bikinis. Despite Alissa’s belief in personal health, she had fallen into arguably the worst physical condition of her life. It happened as insidiously as it does for most, putting other priorities above self-care. So, in December of 2017, Alissa had had enough and she hired a personal trainer...and made a CRAZY goal. That’s what today’s episode is about. Alissa welcomes Kelsie Olson, personal trainer on as the guest coach on this Real Life episode. About Kelsie Olson Besides being a fitness fanatic, Kelsie Olson received an Exercise Science degree from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse as well as a personal training certification from the NSCA.  She has been personal training for 4 years and bodybuilding for 3 1/2 years. She recently received her pro card last Spring and is now competing as an IPE Figure Pro. She and her husband Dusty own a personal training business called Renovation Training, based out of Blaine, MN.  They work with all types of clients from weight loss to runners to muscle building to the extreme of competitive bodybuilding.   We know you were wondering! Kelsie’s Top 5 StrengthsFinder Strengths are:   Harmony Responsibility Consistency Relator Belief     Key Takeaways Your business does not exist in a vacuum. When you are your best you, you can do better in business, in relationships, and everywhere else. It’s amazing what your body can do if your mental state is spot on. “I’m okay not winning. I’m not okay not preparing as if I’m going to win.” Time-Stamped Show Highlights [02:00] Intro to today’s topic is Alissa’s health journey [07:26] Kelsie lays out the importance of a personal trainer who legit knows their stuff.“I can’t say enough about the importance of hiring a great trainer that is going to encourage you, push you, and hold you accountable, especially in beginning.” [18:17] The conversation that was an important switch for Alissa and her training.“You are only as strong as you allow yourself to be.” [22:31] Tracking and why it’s so important.“It’s really, really important not to get so stuck on one parameter. Look at more than one parameter.” [30:50] Alissa’s challenge going into the competition and the things that have helped her be successful thus far.“Life is certainly not a straight uphill climb. It is valleys and mountains, and eventually, you reach that peak of where you want to be.” [42:33] Alissa’s unexpected side effects and the side benefits. [47:51] Kelsie tells Alissa what she can expect as they near the competition.“It’s important to know that this is temporary, that we have a goal–there is a light at the end of the tunnel.” [53:03] Kelsie shares a bit more on what the competition is and discusses what’s next for Alissa.

StrengthsFinder is an assessment tool that helps people better recognize and use the specific strengths that God has given them. StrengthsFinder assessments have helped millions of people discover what they do best. There are a number of tools out there designed to tell us more about ourselves--DISC, Kolbe, and Myers-Briggs are just a few. These assessments label people as dogs, eagles, sharks, etc. StrengthsFinder is different -- and better. Why, because the results of a StrengthsFinder assessment truly differentiate each person from everyone else. The chance of a person having the same top 5 strengths as another person is 1 out of 300,000; having the same top 5 in the same order is 1 out of 11,400,000; having the same top 34 in the same order is similar to one's chances of winning the lottery. StrengthsFinder helps show each person as the truly unique and amazing creation of God he or she is. By taking the StrengthsFinder assessment, a person will learn his or her top 5 strengths out of a possible 34. A person's top 5 strengths account for about 80% of how he or she operates and leads. Additional background from StrengthsFinder: Strengths are the unique combination of talents, knowledge, and skills that every person possesses. People use these innate traits and abilities in their daily lives to complete their work, to relate with others, and to achieve their goals. But most people don't know what their strengths are or have the opportunity to use them to their advantage. People who do focus on their strengths every day are six times as likely to be engaged in their jobs. They are more productive too, both individually and in teams. And they are more than three times as likely to say they have an excellent quality of life.
