In my community, we do goals. We love goals. Setting them, achieving them.

And, we do goals in some very specific ways. Today I’m sharing my rules for goals, starting with the biggest and most important: goals are about skill-building, and never, ever about worth-building.

Let’s talk more — about what this means, about the other goal rules that will help you have an amazing relationship to your own growth, and about how to apply the same rules to support, supervise and catapult the growth of your team.

Thanks for listening.

Our emotions are like fuel in our tanks.

They take us where we need to go, and like actual fuel, have different properties.

Some burn clean for miles and miles. Others burn hot and fast and powerful over a short distance.

Today on Joyful Leader, we’re talking about emotions as fuel — why willpower is only useful to a point, and how to fill your tank with the fuel that will take you the distance.

Thanks for listening.

Last week we discussed purpose — and how it is always internal, never external. In our lives, we choose containers in which to express our purpose, including our jobs.

This week, we’re exploring a specific aspect of this — feeling like you’ve lost your connection to purpose at work.

If you’ve been there, you know. Feeling like the thing you're doing no longer lights you up like it used to.

Tune in to talk about why this happens. And of course, what to do about it.

Thanks for listening.
