It’s been a day. A good day, but a long day. Oh and it’s #MONDAYMAGIC. If you’re on the email list - you got the message bright and early (why aren’t you on the email list yet?!)
.
This week on the blog we’re grounding in our foundations around work-life balance vs. integration. There’s a BIG difference, and as a leader we’ve gotta know and work that difference. As always, link is in our bio!
.
Welp y’all, Monday is over. Cheers! 😂

Originally, I wasn’t going to post this because it feels a little “look at me, look at me”. But then I thought, no, I love sharing my whole self with y’all and I’m super freakin proud of myself and all the hard work I’ve been putting in.
.
It’s not easy, and I don’t notice the changes every day, and some days my motivation wavers, and most days I annoy those around me with my “keto talk”, and I’m a weird @orangetheory fanatic now, but guess what else? I’m also incredibly happy, my energy is way up, I’m starting to love clothes again, and my confidence is growing as I learn the consistency and strength I have inside of me.
.
One of my weaknesses is that I’m always afraid I’m not going to be good at something I’m not an expert in. It keeps me from getting over the learning curve and I can give up too easily sometimes. While my physical appearance has nothing to do with my journey as a leader on the surface, it really has changed the game for me. I realize I can do things I’ve never been able to do and that if I really put in the work I can do anything. That confidence is crucial to growing as a leader. Don’t give up too easily, keep trying until you find what works for you. You’re worth it.

All of this goal-setting talk may sound overwhelming, but I promise YOU CAN DO THIS! 💪🏻
.
I make sure to write down every single little action step and check them off as I complete them. I am realistic with how many things I can get done in a day, week or month and know I can’t do all of these things at once. But each time I check one thing off the list I feel accomplished and more excited to get to the next step. It’s science y’all - PROGRESS BEGETS PROGRESS!

What’s one action step you’re proud of taking this week? Share with us in the comments!

Studies show that when you commit to someone else that you will complete a goal your odds of completing the goal go up to 65% – and if you actually make an appointment with that accountability partner your odds can shoot up to 95% probability! COME ON. How can you not take advantage of those odds?⠀
.⠀
But here’s the deal – you’ve got to pick the right accountability partner. First, you’ve got to pick someone who is great at the goal you’re trying to accomplish. So this was always my mistake in the past. I’d pick someone who was right at the beginning of their weight loss or health journey as my accountability partner, meaning neither of us knew what the hell we were doing and we were more likely to enable each other to cheat.⠀

Tag your favorite accountability partner in the comments and let them know why ya love them so!⠀

Every goal that we have has many steps we have to take to complete the full goal, so really sit and brainstorm all of the little steps it will take to get you there. With any goal, you generally are not going to be able to do ALL of your action steps at once. You need to look at all of your action steps and schedule them out, being realistic with how much can get done each day.⠀
.⠀
If you have a full day of work and then dance class for your daughter after work and you are responsible for dinner that night because your partner is out of town on business, don’t schedule action steps on that day. Be realistic and don’t overwhelm yourself!⠀
.⠀
And when I say schedule it on the calendar, I really mean it. Pick the time you’re going to do it, how much time you have to dedicate to the action step, and where you’re going to complete the action step. Trust me, it makes a difference.⠀
.⠀
What’s on your calendar this week that is moving you closer to your goals?⠀

This week for our #MONDAYMAGIC post, I’m sharing tools and encouragement on how to crush your 2019 goals - even in December!
.
First off, REASSESS YOUR GOALS! Goals are not written in stone. We learn, we evolve, our demanding schedules change – basically LIFE HAPPENS. I want you to take a look at your goal (or goals) that you’ve given up on and reassess. Did you give up because your goals were unrealistic or overwhelming? Did you give up because another goal became more important?
.
For me, I had many goals and one of them was getting my health back on track so I can be the best leader possible every day. I can’t be at my best when I’m sick, uncomfortable, sleep-deprived, anxious, or just unhappy with myself in general. It took me the first half of the year to really get a handle on my sleep and healthy routines, and it wasn’t until summer that I found a way of eating and an exercise routine that works for me.
.
Today when I took this #shamelessselfie, I finally can see a lot of my hard (mostly invisible) work paying off. I look like myself, I’m rested, I’m fitting into pants that I haven’t fit into in 2 years, and I’m excited about the work I get to do everyday. Had I given up any of the (MANY) times I got off track this year, I would’ve never made it here.
.
What are you going to recommit to this month to end this decade out strong?? Share with us in the comments.

Seriously, Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays. No gifts, no pressure, great food, and several celebrations. First was the Henry Thanksgiving, then Soupsgiving, then the Station Thanksgiving, and now the grand finale of FriendsChrismaKkuhGiving. 😂
.
I love celebrating gratitude and taking a moment to reflect on how blessed we truly are with so many amazing loved ones in our lives. 🧡
.
Who are you thankful for?? Tag them in the comments and tell them why! 💕
.
PS - this made up holiday was created because I realized my husband wasn’t cooking a turkey this year and I just cannot have that. HE MAKES THE BEST TURKEY IN THE WORLD. 🦃

So much to be thankful for this year. 🦃
.
This beautiful man continues to be by my side through everything, I have a career where I can make a positive impact on my community, sugarface and I are healthier than we’ve been in years, our amazing families are healthy and our niece and nephew are growing into amazing little humans, and I have a community like y’all that keep me going. 🧡
.
I could go on and on, and it’s not because my life is perfect, but rather because I choose to focus on joy and gratitude over pain and lack. What do you choose to focus on? 🤔

THIS GIRL. 🙌🏻 Y’all, this fierce woman is changing the world. I am honored and blessed to call her a friend.
.
This last weekend @dianardiaz put on #RAWWTalks No. 5 focused on our spirituality and mindfulness. @therawwnetwork has tackled deep, difficult topics in a beautiful, safe, inviting space through every single RAWWTalks. Diana and her team work tirelessly to bring in top experts to tell their authentic stories and create a space of empowerment, love, acceptance, and learning.
.
Special thanks to @dariluna_ and @laflowers for sharing your inspiring stories and expertise. As always, the RAWW team knew exactly what @gigi_kel and I needed and we walked away SO refreshed and inspired.
.
If you haven’t made it to a RAWWTalks yet, honestly you are missing out on one of the realest, most powerful events I’ve experienced. Don’t sleep on that next one.

This last weekend I had the honor of serving as the keynote speaker at @flypstagram Annual Awards Banquet. I challenged this group of leaders to reject the old school, “manage by intimidation”, culture and instead focus on being supportive, authentic leaders who prioritize relationships with their team members. I challenged them to take advantage of the benefits of technology and creat cultures of flexibility that support work/life integration.
.
It’s not groundbreaking stuff, but through experience we all know that most businesses have not changed their company to culture in these ways. That’s what I’m highlighting this month on the blog - culture change. What an amazing culture actually looks like and how to get there. Check it out at the link in my bio, then let me know in the comments what you wish you could change in your company’s culture if you could!
