women in careers

Have you ever thought to yourself that you would really like to try and get more done in your day? I know that I definitely have - I am always looking for ways to improve my productivity and what can I do or try to get the best out of my day! If this sounds like you then listen in as I chat with Dr Amantha Imber where talk about working a 4 day work week. 

Dr Amantha Imber is an organisational psychologist and founder of behavioural science consultancy Inventium and host of the very popular podcast - 'how I work'!

In this episode I revisit a chat that i had with Amantha Imber. When Covid hit Amantha and her team were thinking about how they as productivity experts could improve their own productivity. They had previously talked about trying the Andrew Barnes - 4 day work week. They thought to themselves that there was better time than the present! 

The results of this experiment will surprise you!

Well I am very excited to let you know that after an 18 month hiatus I am back with the Lady Leadership podcast. I am super passionate about helping women excel in their careers and how I can help you get to the next stage of your career! I am very excited about the guests that I have coming up in the new season of the podcast and they are going to be able to share a lot of wisdom with you. 

In this episdoe I share what I have been up to and why I took some time off the podcast. I think we all need to take a step back at certain times in our lives for own mental health and healing. 

 I also share a great conversation that I had with a friend the other day about her career options, I think this will be a very valuable insight and I think you will enjoy the thought process that I went through to give this friend some advice. In short she has been approached for another job that she is highly qualified for so we discuss what the steps should be that she takes next and how does she make a decision on what she should do! 

Enjoy this episode and I am thrilled to be back!

This week I had an absolutely delightful chat with Lynne Cazaly on the Lady Leadership show! Lynne has just written a new book ‘Argh’ A practical guide to outsmarting overwhelm, this book shows how to outsmart feelings of overwhelm and includes practical tools to better manage emotions!
 
As the impact of COVID has reminded us, the world can be an unpredictable and overwhelming place. Our experiences of overwhelm can impact us at home and at work and often form a regular part of our daily lives. But it doesn’t have to be this way. These feelings of overwhelm can be outsmarted.
 
In her new book, Argh!, Lynne Cazaly provides readers with powerful techniques to make sense of our overwhelm, and discover new ways to work and cope with all this information. Lynne says it comes down to acknowledging our emotions and better managing our workload. Drawing upon decades of experience she outlines useful tools to help filter information to avoid burnout that general feeling of ‘too much on’.

We talked about getting it out of your head, which Lynne calls sense making, emotional regulation and then using Agile ways of working to manage the workload plus the Pomodoro technique which is 25 mins of intense focus! 

This is not a conversation to miss out on!

Juli shares her lessons from her life coach about confronting her inner critics and empowering her inner sage to have the voice of authority in her life. Juli and Mel discuss how those inner critics, or voices of fear, can be annoying and paralyzing but they're always a part of you and if you listen to them, they might have something to tell you... just don't let them run the show in their life. They discuss the persona of Juli's inner sage and how sometimes it sounds exactly like you when you're giving advice to your friend. 

Carlo Minchillo shares how he is able to find energy to do "twelve million things" by investing his time into what inspires him. Juli & Mel try to mine tips and tricks from Carlo who shares that it starts with asking yourself what it is that you want and then going after that. They also discuss the importance of being surrounded by people who are inspiring and encouraging. Get buzzed and inspired to go after the thing you've always wanted to by listening to Carlo's mindset. 

Mel starts a new job and finds herself confronted with a new round of Impostor Syndrome. Mel talks to Juli about feeling like a fraud on her first day of work and how she eventually worked her head out of the impostor syndrome.
