Ep 64 – One of my favourite coaching tools

This week, I’m joined by Alicia Navarro from FLOWN, a start-up who have created a deep work toolkit and deep work spaces that help knowledge workers get significant work done - and take joy in the journey. Deep work is focused, uninterrupted time where you’re working on something challenging or significant and allows opportunity for creativity, problem solving and a real sense of purpose. Unfortunately, it’s not the norm in most corporate workplaces and FLOWN wants to improve that.  Alicia and I discuss: What deep work looks like and the factors needed to create it How you can distraction proof your working time The importance of play for creativity and problem solving Nurturing feminine energy in a predominantly masculine world of work How FLOWN is reimagining how we work and their free daily sessions you can join After listening to this episode, I encourage you to review your normal working day. Is it dictated by emails, meetings and lacking creative thinking space? How can you create more deep work and play time for you and your team? MORE ABOUT ALICIA Alicia Navarro is a serial tech entrepreneur, with a passion for product, brand, design and culture. She is the founder and CEO of a new startup, FLOWN, creating ‘deep work’ spaces for knowledge workers.

Ep 59 – Being Kinder to Yourself

As a coach for women leaders, I focus on how as women we can take control of our careers. But I’ve never addressed on the podcast why we even need women’s leadership coaches and women’s leadership programmes. The playing field that women operate on in the workplace is shockingly unlevel. It’s time to acknowledge that and collectively take steps to change it. I discuss: The dynamics of the current working environment and how it wasn’t designed with women in mind The true extent of the disadvantages we face from pay to promotions to behaviour What sponsorship is and how women can proactively support each other Ways we can improve the working environment, embrace our personal strengths and step into the space we deserve   HELPFUL LINKS: Why Men Win at Work - Gill Whitty-Collins: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Why-Men-Win-at-Work/dp/1913025624 Ep 45 - Successful Job Sharing with The Job Share Pair: https://carla-miller.mykajabi.com/blog/ep-45-successful-job-sharing-with-the-job-share-pair   FREE TASTER WORKSHOP Join my free taster workshop – Develop Your Personal Leadership Brand – on Monday 16 August.

Are you an overthinker? Perhaps you ruminate on past situations, worry about future events or are fearful of the judgement of others? Overthinking can affect both our work and personal lives as well as how we show up with confidence as a leader.

We discussed: What mindfulness is and how it can benefit you How you can have more awareness and control of your thoughts and emotions What you can do if you’re feeling worried or anxious about returning to the office Ways you can handle uncertainty and even embrace it A quick mindfulness exercise you can do anywhere to instantly ease your stress   If you’d like to learn the Four Step Pause that Tahirih shared and get access to seven days of guided meditations for overthinkers, you can find those at her website: https://www.tahirih.co/f/mindfulness-kit   HOW TO WORRY LESS ABOUT WORK Join my free masterclass – How To Worry Less About Work – where I share 5 practical strategies that you can use to worry less and reclaim your mental space.

Ep 56 - How to Stop Overthinking

Menopause is something that all women will experience in their life however it’s not something that’s well understood or openly spoken about. The symptoms of menopause will almost certainly affect how you work but it’s often seen to be a taboo subject which leaves women struggling in silence. In this week’s episode I interview Deborah Garlick from Henpicked Menopause who’s on a mission to ensure women are supported throughout menopause through awareness, education and workplace training. We discuss: What menopause is, how it can affect you and our personal experiences Deborah’s advice for getting the help you need from your GP How you can talk about menopause at work and how it’s impacting you Ways that leaders can support colleagues that are going through menopause What organisations can do to be more aware, supportive and menopause friendly Throughout the interview, Deborah provided fantastic, practical tips for both individuals, leaders and organisations that will help to make a real difference for perimenopausal and menopausal women at work.
