Stop Giving Away Your Power EP67

Nancy’s Do The Thing Retreat On Cape Cod:⁠ **apply here.**⁠ Welcome back, Podsters. It's time to stop giving away your power. At work, at home, with your family, partner, boss, and even with your friends. Micro changes to you what you do and what you say will have an immediate and huge impact on your happiness and will help you get closer to the life you want.‌Are you bringing homemade cookies into the office? Stop. Clearing the conference table after a meeting? Stop. Coordinating the meeting details, every time? Stop. You are not the caregiver at work and these subtle nuances will change how you’re perceived and boost your executive presence. Words matter. Starting your sentences with “I just wanted to say”, “I’m not sure this is a good idea but…” and “you may have already thought of this” is undermining your authority. Think about it. You’re apologizing for speaking before you’re even speaking.‌How about at home and with your finances? It doesn’t matter if you’re partnered up or still living la vida loca as a single person…do you know how much money is coming in and out? Where the savings is located? The passwords? Power of attorney? Many of us shy away from the daily details of our finances and many of us are left with a big surprise when a life-changing event occurs.‌Buckle up, Podsters, it's time to figure out where you're giving away your power and how to take it back. Send us your feedback, topics you'd like us to cover, and of course, rave reviews of how the podcast is going.
