62: one decision fixes an overwhelming day

Here's the answer to an overwhelming day– constrain to your minimum baseline.
 
Your brain (just like mine) would prefer to overwork in all the ways:
🚨Answer work emails immediately all day long, interrupting your highest-quality thinking and extending your day by hours
🚨Host the faculty candidate for the entire day instead of just attending the Grand Rounds lecture
🚨Clean the inside of the refrigerator when mother-in-law comes over instead of treating her to a simple birthday brunch at her favorite cafe so someone else can do the cooking & cleaning
 
Overworking has you working 2.0FTE.
This weeks' tool makes overworking HISTORY.
It gets you home HOURS EARLIER EACH DAY.
Try it now and see results BEFORE LUNCH.

57: the secret to dealing with a bad schedule, colleague, & boss WITHOUT losing sleep

This got me fuming mad when I was practicing Medicine:
a totally unfair work schedule
a surgeon yelling at me about a positive margin
my boss (who didn't have kids) telling me that good moms don’t travel so much 
 
My anger made so much sense.
I don’t like doing MORE than my share of clinical work.
I don’t like ANYONE yelling at me.
I don’t like anyone suggesting that I’m not a good mom.
 
Here’s why I got tripped up:  I made all of this mean there was something wrong with me.
I had a terrible work schedule because I wasn’t as valuable. 
The surgeon yelled at me because I didn’t carry myself as confidently as my male counterparts.
Maybe I wasn’t being a good mom. 
Cue the sleepless nights, yelling at myself 24/7, and soothing myself with ice cream until I didn't fit into my pants. No fun.
 
In this week’s podcast episode, you get the secret to dealing with a bad schedule, colleague, and boss WITHOUT losing sleep and beating yourself up:
✳️Recognize when you're blaming you and redirect your brain towards the REAL problem (it's never you!)
✳️Create REAL solutions 
✳️Feel better fast because you know how to handle an unfair schedule, a yelling surgeon, and a bad boss
✳️Four case studies to show you how this tool works in real-time

55: ✨solve impossible problems with THIS...

Have an impossible decision to make? Girrrrrrl, you gotta try this week's new tool. 
Andrea (name and details are anonymized) felt stuck in a job she didn’t love AND she also didn’t want to move because she was afraid she’d hate that job too AND she was super mad at herself for not deciding either way. In this week’s podcast, I give you the tool set I developed for Andrea:
 
It involves FIRST not making Andrea wrong.
Validating all of her concerns are important, sensible, and thoughtful.
Looking at the decision that solves the MOST problems.
Looking at the decision that creates MORE problems.
And considering simplicity for the win
 
What happened to Andrea? She decided to stay in place at her job and negotiate to make it a better fit. This decision felt like such RELIEF to her. She got EVERYTHING she asked for. She loves her “new” job (it’s the same job but she made it entirely new through negotiations). She stayed in the house and school district she loves. She’s THRILLED with her decision. 
 
Click the button for the solution to your impossible decision.
