• 13:04 I think the people that you work with is incredibly important,
• 13:14 They are the ones that shape the experience of your day-to-day job and how fulfilling it is.
• 13:31 knowing that the culture of the company that I go into is important,
• 16:35 one is the importance of advocating for yourself.
• 17:14 When going through any sort of shock like a diagnosis, or a job loss, or really any stressor and setback, there is that emotional roller coaster.
• 17:57 It's important to recognize that it's okay to feel that way, and it's very natural and it doesn't make you not a resilient person, or not a strong person if you have those moments.
• 19:09 That it's important to have hope and be hopeful and optimistic, but it's more empowering to actually do something.
• 20:02 I can't control the difficulty of it, but I can control how I respond to it.
• 20:09 responding with action, responding with grounded hope, so there's hope and optimism,
• 21:31 advocating for yourself and implicitly within that assumes you know what you want.
• 21:53 in order for you to be able to advocate for yourself, for your team, or for your business, requires a clarity of your own North star.
• 22.24 What is your intention? What are you optimizing for? What are you aiming for? Because only then can you actually make the choices in your life and not let them be made for you,
• 23:09 If you know and have clarity of thought around why what you're pursuing is important, then you'll feel more empowered to advocate for that even in the face of pushback.
• 24:25 That journey requires being able to educate and inspire others to believe also.
• 24:53 being a leader just fundamentally means that you're having influence amongst a greater population across the organization
• 28:05. But no one writes a letter to themselves in 10 years, also baking in all of the curveballs that they're gonna experience. Everyone always thinks everything's gonna go rosy.
• 30:46 I think an important nuance to that is not just recognizing the uncertainty, but actually viewing it as an opportunity.
• 31:14 But if you layer on to that the belief that you have the adaptability and the agility to be able to navigate that uncertainty,
• 31:47 then it can be much more exciting because it feels like no matter what happens, you have the belief that you can control how you let it impact you.
• 32:15 Hope is not a course of action, you need to actually take action. But you also emphasize this concept of control.
• 38:06 when you seized that moment of empowerment, when you made an active choice, it might have given you energy and power.
• 40:53 it's important to acknowledge that grief and joy can coexist.
• 41:20 The difficult situation is still difficult, but you're trying to make the best of it.
• 41:36 you basically empower yourself.
• 42:55 It's great to empower teams to function autonomously and feel empowered to make decisions and pursue actions
• 43:22. So just making sure that the North Star of where you wanna go as well as the values of how you want to get there are properly communicated and truly understood by the entire organization.
• 45:50 Creating a little bit of that distance to your situation and viewing it as an outsider can then help you gain some perspective on whether it's time for that decision point, that activation of I now need to pursue action.
• 46:42 And it is fascinating that we can actually physically change the shape of our brain by how we think.
• 46:56 And act, not only how we think,
• 48:01 Pursuing that line of thinking and making the decisions and choices to act in those more productive ways, over time, will actually rewire our brain to more naturally think that way.
