So, I have been anonymously nominated for The Speaker of the Year Award. This means so much because in my early career I considered myself the Worlds Worst Presenter. I would shake, get a full on body blush (I used to have to wear a polo neck) and my voice would do this weird Tarzan thing. Naturally shy, happy to blend into the background I was horrified when my boss said, your personality profile says you should be a speaker. I started small with 20 minute tool box talks. In the end I got over myself and whilst I am still introverted, as long as my message is helping or inspiring someone to lead a better work life I’m happy to get on that stage. To win, votes contribute towards the outcome and you can find the link in my bio or go here: tr.ee/ij1F57KB9k Whoever nominated me, thank you x @wombizclub

Morning campers. Just back from holibobs & realised I had holiday brain. You know that fuzzy…I’ve been way too relaxed & need to fire up the old thinking cells feeling? When I’m like this I’m at risk of wasting time or going for the low hanging fruit…although that can be a nice way to slide back into work 😉. Anyway, to help with #focus, #overwhelm prevention & time #optimisation I reviewed my vision board & strategic plan. It also gave me a jolt of excitement as I think about my plans. Anyway, curious, who else uses a #strategicplan & #vision? What other things do you do to stay on track?

We all get overwhelmed, overloaded at some point…the point is we recognise this & press reset. What do you do to press reset? #resetting #destressing #stressfree #lookafteryourself #wellbeing

How #fear keeps us stuck & stops us from #leading our best work-lives. I share 2 things you can do to get unstuck & my free resource to help. See the link in my bio 👆👆👆#fearoffailure #stuck #insecurity #questioning #lawyer #hrd #accountant #getunstuck #dreamlife #attainyourgoals

When we self-sabotage. I had a fabulous day talking about one of my favourite topics: imposter syndrome but also how we can self sabotage our goals dreams and desires. Whether that’s not believing in yourself. Procrastinating. Or giving up too soon just as you were about to make a breakthrough. We looked at four main fears which keep us stuck when it comes to personal development and growth: 1. Fear of failure 2. Fear of rejection 3. Fear of insecurity 4. Fear of conflict Fear’s positive intention is to keep us safe. However, what it does do is keep us exactly where we are. So what’s the solution? 1. To have an awareness of how you are self sabotaging your goals. 2. To challenge those limiting beliefs. 3. To be the captain of your thoughts: stop those that you don’t want or reframe them. 4. To break down large goals into bite-size tasks. This makes it less scary. 5. Take action & do the first task. Get off the starting blocks. 6. Get an accountability buddy. Studies show that goal attainment increases to 95%. #conflict #failure #impostersyndrome #insecurity #rejection

The toxic side of #perfectionism & 2 things you can do to overcome it. #impostersyndrome #innerbrillianceoutershine #stress #stressrelief #innercritic #innercriticbegone

There’s a toxic side to imposter syndrome (IS), which creates what I refer as IS Domino Effect. This is where one thing leads to another, e.g. not feeling good enough leads to proving our worth, which leads to doing too much, which leads to stress, anxiety & sometimes burn out. I’m running a free webinar on 1/5/24 at 11 am & will be sharing my 5 steps for overcoming this. Places are limited.

Tip 47: Journal. Journal negative thoughts and feelings out. Journaling can improve cognitive function, anxiety, mood, depression, wellbeing, and emotional regulation.18 You can download my free journaling process and template here: 2beee.com/...ance-outer-shine-journal/ Get the other 49 stress relieving tips here 👇 #InnerBrillianceOuterShine #stressmanagement #confidence #anxiety #happiness mailchi.mp/...to-build-calm-confidence

Tip 43: Model behaviour. Model (copy) the behaviour and attitudes of a happy, confident person. This is an NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming Technique). Notice how they hold themselves, what language they use and how they spend their time.

Tip 51: Use Havening. Crush unwanted anxiety, stress, depression and imposter syndrome and create natural, calm, confidence & time efficiency using Havening. It’s dramatically changed my life and the lives of my clients. Havening can create automatic behaviour, belief and emotional changes. It’s simple to use, the tricky part is identifying the root cause, (which is where I come in). Save yourself 66 days practice, (this is how long it takes on average to change a habit, which is why change is challenging). Havening scrambles the neural pathways associated with the trigger and is just flipping fab. Ready To Make Changes? Join My SHINE Programme To: Reduce stress and anxiety so that you feel calmer.

Tip 48: Stop Taking on Others Monkey’s (tasks)! Recognise when it’s not your circus (or drama). Give yourself less to do. Get the other 49 stress relieving tips here 👇 #InnerBrillianceOuterShine #stressmanagement #confidence #anxiety #happiness mailchi.mp/...to-build-calm-confidence

Tip 44: Learn to breathe. Of course, you are breathing but are you breathing ‘properly’? Breathing can help make you calmer, relieve pain, elevate your mood, improve posture, clear all the crap from your lymphatic system, increase energy, improve digestion and strengthen organs.17 Try this breathing exercise: Breath in for a count of 7 through your nose. Exhale through your mouth for a count of 11. Repeat between 10 – 20 times.

Tip 46: Sing. For me this would be when nobody is listening – cats choir and all that. Singing relieves stress, stimulates the immune response, increases your pain threshold, can improve snoring, enhances lung function, develops a sense of belonging and connection (obvs. not on your own), helps with grief and improves mental health and mood.

Tip 42: Stop rescuing people, you’re only reinforcing their helplessness. This increases both your physical and mental burden. Not good for people that want to be happy. Yes, take care of your dependents, but as for everyone else, allow them to be responsible adults. They will learn and grow from the experience. In the long run, you’re doing them a favour.

Tip 49: Manage your people boundaries. Anger is a clue that a personal boundary is being breached. Boundaries often have strong connections with our beliefs and values. For example, I cannot stand to see anyone not being treated fairly or kindly. I become the defender. This is something I must watch, as not only am I at risk of rescuing someone, (and saving them from learning the skills themselves) but it also gives me more to do. Being clear about what’s important to you, noticing when you are triggered and then communicating and holding that boundary with others helps.

Tip 19: Walk. It has some surprising benefits. It counteracts the effects of weight-promoting genes. It tames a sweet tooth, (I could do with that). It reduces the risk of breast cancer. It eases joint pain. (If we’re in pain it eats away at our happiness; we’re certainly not SHINING). It boosts immune function Get the other 49 stress relieving tips here 👇 #InnerBrillianceOuterShine #stressmanagement #confidence #anxiety #happiness mailchi.mp/...to-build-calm-confidence

Join a class, download an app or listen to a video on YouTube. Meditation has been shown to reduce stress, control anxiety, promote emotional health, enhance self-awareness, lengthen attention span, reduce age-related memory loss, generate kindness, fight addictions, improve sleep and control pain.

Tip 29: Give yourself less to do. Stop being the superhero and stressing yourself out. You’ll burn out. Start saying no, or no for now. Give someone else a chance to grow their skillset 😉.

Tip 27: Work out your values. When we get our values met we experience an array of positive emotions. However, the opposite is also true when we don’t. For example, if ‘Stability’ is important to you and you are going through a change at work or home, it may make you feel stressed until stability is re-established.

Tip 34: Practice gratitude. It can enhance mental health, mood, happiness, optimism, sleep, immunity, emotional intelligence and positive emotions. It can also reduce stress, depression, anxiety, negative thoughts, chronic pain and disease risk.16 Another long list of reasons to do this!
