Doing What Matters

With the change of seasons, schedules shift and busyness can creep in quickly if we're not intentional! While there's no one quick fix, we can be mindful to create sustainable rhythms for our REALSELF, REALIFE, and REALWORK relationships and activities.

This week's episode gets right down to the practical application of the REALIFE Enneagram as we focus on Practicing Simplicity. Using the FULL CIRCLE wisdom of our head, heart, and gut we'll look at 10 practices to consider as you simplify and move toward being more present to the moments in the season.

About Erica Vinson:

Erica Vinson h...

In this episode of the REALIFE Process, I reflect on my recent vacation to the North Georgia mountains and share insights on how we can reset and make the most of our summer. I introduce the concept of "pre-decision" and how making choices in advance can guide our future actions, reduce stress, and increase effectiveness. Whether it's setting aside time for relaxation, tackling a personal project, or creating cherished memories, I discuss practical steps you can take to intentionally design your remaining summer days. Join me as we explore ways to live from a place of rest and fully embrace the season ahead.

Teresa’s mission is to see individuals and groups grow in self awareness, develop sustainable rhythms, and increase their influence and impact at the intersection of faith and work in their everyday life story.

In this episode of the 'Doing What Matters' podcast, we discuss the importance of creating and sustaining culture in various settings. The conversation was inspired by an email Teresa received about the intentional development of workplace culture. They emphasize that culture is not absorbed by osmosis but is taught and cultivated through language and values. By sharing personal experiences and strategies, we explore how culture shapes environments at home, at work, and within teams. We’ll underscore the importance of using consistent language, establishing team guidelines, and having clear values to promote alignment and confidence. Practical advice includes creating dedicated work times, setting clear communication channels, and honoring personal and team rhythms.

We also invite our listeners to an upcoming free webinar aimed at helping coaches grow their businesses with confidence.
