The demands on us are increasing, and change is stressful, but how can we navigate daily challenges with intent and care instead of just continuing to push through and work harder?
Instead of allowing uncertainty to freeze us up or burn us out, how can we grow through adversity and harness change? And how do we do our best when time is limited and we’re exhausted?
The world has changed, work has changed, and we have changed, but our relationship with self-care—the very foundation of performance—has remained the same.
Not only that, what if we have self-care all wrong? What if self-care is not what we do after work to recover but rather a mindset we have with us all day long? What if self-care is how we support ourselves in spending time better?
The self-care mindset intersects emotional intelligence, mental agility, and our humanity to guide us. It’s the foundation for positive change and growth. It’s how we harness well-being and reclaim work-life quality to reach our goals without burning out.
The power of this kind of care is at the core of high-performing teams and a culture where people belong, engage, connect, and work better together. That’s because the quality of our relationships is the quality of our culture. Using the four questions of The Self-Care Mindset framework, we can engage with more intention and care, building better relationships, starting with our relationship with ourselves.
We humans have a unique advantage that makes this kind of shift possible: we’re driven to care. It’s in our nature—we wouldn’t survive without it.
Navigating change can be daunting for a leader, and we need new skills to lead through change with clarity and confidence. The world is changing faster than ever, and agility is essential for unlocking growth. Recognizing that it can cause tension, stress, and conflict in our teams, we need the right tools to harness the human connection to overcome these challenges together as a team.
Instead of trying to control, manage, and predict change, today's leaders must learn to pause, listen, and ask better questions to support their team. We must focus on creating a culture of psychological safety where everyone knows they matter and feels supported.
Using the C.A.R.E. framework, we can build emotional agency and harness the stress of change with curiosity, acknowledgment, respect, and empathy.
The focus is on practical tools and strategies that leaders can use to guide themselves and their teams toward sustainable success during times of change. These techniques can be easily implemented and put into practice right away.
Life and work continue to speed up and demand more of us. Our attention is stretched and distracted, and engaging and staying focused on what matters is more complex than ever. Our core human need to feel safe is challenged like never before because the future is uncertain, and change constantly challenges our sense of agency.
How can we develop strong, healthy relationships that foster an agile culture of change? This starts with our relationship with ourselves and extends to how we connect and engage with others. The quality of our relationships becomes the quality of our culture. By prioritizing our humanity at work, we can build a culture that reflects the values of care.
Imagine a culture where we take a moment to pause together and intentionally focus our attention. A culture where everyone is valued and cares about their work because they know it matters. A culture where we extend our care to those we serve and prioritize what truly matters.
We often assume that caring for people is our responsibility, but in reality, it means caring about them by asking them what they need to reclaim agency over their work and lives. This approach promotes diversity and inclusivity in the workplace and allows us to tap into our human advantage of connecting, communicating, and collaborating with intention, care, and purpose. A Culture of Care® prioritizes the overall well-being of all individuals involved.
You and your teams will learn how to pause, listen, and ask better questions to be more aware, adaptable, and agile to grow through adversity together, building a culture where C.A.R.E. means Confidence, Agility, Resilience, and Equity.
In a busy world, it's easy to get overwhelmed and stuck. It’s easy to focus on what's not working, to feel like we are running in survival mode, to fix the urgent at the expense of the important. But we can’t stop busy. However, we can be busy better by learning how to navigate uncertainty and harness change without the worry that wears us out.
Stress like that distracts us from doing our best work. To focus on what matters today for a better tomorrow, we must learn to cut through the noise, think clearly, engage with curiosity, and act confidently when we need it the most.
The good news is, there’s a tool for that: Power-Pausing.
In this session, you will learn the three stages of Power-Pausing. We will explore how to pause for change and growth by unlocking our human advantage to think, engage, and act with intention, care, and purpose.
You will discover how Power Pausing is critical for accessing the unconscious behaviors that make up 95% of our untapped potential and unlocking the best of our human skills. Not only that, but when we pause, we become more aware, adaptable, and agile, which is at the core of a resilient growth mindset. In our fast-paced reality, pausing is not about taking time out; it’s how we spend time better, and it is the missing link to being more productive and making better decisions faster.
How to Stop Stress From Running Your Life by Transforming Your Inner Critic to Your Inner Coach
What if stress and burnout doesn't come from working too much, but rather from worrying too much? We have so many questions every day, most of them unproductive, and we end up getting stuck in thoughts that drain our energy, suck up our creativity, and wear us out. What if stress is not the problem, but rather the possibility for growth? The way our mind works is either working for us or against us, depending on how we ask questions of ourselves.
The Right Why® is a process of getting unstuck and using productive self-questioning to move from stress to problem solving, from confusion to clarity, and from fear and anxiety to courage and confidence. Using elements from The Self-Care Mindset® we can hone in on how we support ourselves in becoming more resilient and master stress to work for us.
Let’s get to know our mind better so that it can work for us rather than against us.
