Have you ever worked on a project that went completely sideways? One of those situations where mistakes get made, tempers run high, and all attempts to course-correct fail.

It happens to the best of us. Yet, these situations seem to pull out the worst in us.

Everyone gets so caught up in protecting their own behinds that team dynamics and performance devolve even further.

When a team gets to this unhealthy place, a reset is needed.

A post-mortem meeting is an effective way to reset team dynamics and improve team performance—if it’s run well by a cool-headed facilitator.

I break down how to run a post-mortem meeting.

Craft a Killer Self Review

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

play

12/13/22 • 18 min

There’s something on your to-do list that you’re avoiding. You know it, I know it, and certainly, your boss knows it.

This is your sign to stop procrastinating and get your self-review done.

Yes, the timing of it always feels inconvenient. The end of the year is hectic. With calendars full of work deadlines and holiday preparations, it’s hard to imagine how it would be possible to tackle yet another deliverable.

But, you need to understand that a self-review is more than a corporate box to check. Done well, it can set the foundation for you to have a productive coaching session that defines a path for your upcoming year of career success!

I break down a simple format that will help you craft a killer self-review.

Too Many Meetings, Not Enough Time

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

play

01/17/23 • 20 min

If you are spending your day racing from meeting to meeting—and starting your actual work at 5 pm—you are getting it wrong.

“I have too many meetings,” you sigh to yourself and to your co-workers. “I need to go to these meetings,” you adamantly believe. “My team can’t meet without me,” you say to yourself.

I’m calling BS on all of these beliefs. It’s time to spend your workday on the work that matters!

Don’t know how to break the cycle? I got you. I’ll show you how to start taking back control by doing a calendar audit.

It’s time to break free from the “too many meetings, not enough time” blues.

Returning to the office is one of the hottest topics in corporate America right now.

The 2020 lockdowns have forever changed the way we work. While most of us have no desire to go back to the way things were, there are distinct advantages to in-person work and collaboration.

For the past few months, I’ve experimented with a hybrid work schedule, and I’ve learned how to take the best advantage of a flexible work style.

In this episode, I share five things I’ve learned by returning to the office.

It’s Okay to Unplug!

Slow your scroll...

I’m popping into your feed with a gentle reminder. It’s okay to unplug!

I know you are used to being 100% connected 24/7. We all are. But, even badasses like us need the space to rest and rejuvenate.

Let’s all slow down this holiday season and savor the moment. I’ll share what works for me and give insight into how I plan on unplugging this holiday.

Your 2023 Bucket List

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

play

01/24/23 • 18 min

As ambitious women, we talk a lot about goals. Setting goals, chasing goals, achieving goals.

We’re driven by what’s next to chase. The next promotion, the next career move, the next health target. And to be perfectly honest, the journey toward the next achievement is a key ingredient in feeling fulfilled.

What if I told you it can’t all be about chasing the big goals? Seems like a counterintuitive question for a career podcast to ask, right?

But, my mission is to not only help women dominate their career. I also want to help women build a life they love.

Today, I want to focus on your 2023 bucket list. Do you have one? If not, I’m going to convince you why you need one.

Holiday Parties, Hangovers & Regret

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

12/06/22 • 19 min

Hangovers suck.

The only thing worse after a work holiday party? Waking up with a hangover AND regret.

Regret that you said too much to the wrong people. Flirted with a cube mate. Went on a tirade about your boss. Danced on a table in a mini skirt. There are so many ways that a work holiday party can go sideways.

That said, it’s a party. It’s also a chance to connect with co-workers and have a little fun!

Let’s talk about having fun at your holiday party—and waking up regret-free the day after.

Don’t Use This Positive Mantra!

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

play

11/29/22 • 17 min

Sometimes, we need a little emotional pick-me-up. We’re worried or stressed out, and we just can’t seem to calm down our feverish thoughts.

You can try meditation, yoga, prayer, or other mindfulness practices. But, if you’re like me—one of those people who wonders “how long do I need to sit in this silence” when attempting meditation—there’s an easy hack that can help. It’s a little something called the positive mantra. Positive affirmations are a powerful way to calm anxiety and give you a little confidence boost.

But, not all mantras are good for you. There’s one popular mantra that’s actually quite toxic and should be avoided at all costs.

I share the mantra to avoid and why in this episode.

How to Recover from a F**k Up

The REAL-WORLD FEMINIST® Podcast

play

02/07/23 • 20 min

Everyone makes mistakes at work. Yes, even we type-A personalities that want to think we are flawless.

It happens. The unfortunate typo that gets printed on 10,000 brochures. The emotional outburst in a very public team meeting. The bad formula in a spreadsheet that results in an unfortunate billing error.

Yes, everyone makes mistakes. But, not everyone recovers gracefully with their professional reputation intact.

How you handle yourself in these moments makes all the difference in how you are perceived in corporate America. I break down how to recover from a f**k up.
