Take a Soulbattical to Live a Better Life with Shelley Paxton

In this episode, we sit down with Shelley Paxton, Chief Soul Officer of Soulbattical to discuss an inward look at ourselves as leaders and business owners to make our work, the why behind what we do, more fulfilling. Key Takeaways:A "Soulbattical" is a time to take a step back, realign the work you're doing with what matters most to you, and living it out each day in your work. It involves living and leading with greater authenticity, courage, and fulfillment. Creating a fulfilling work environment means being able to bring our entire selves to work. We want our team members and us to be able to do that.One of Shelley's most powerful reflection questions: What are you pretending not to know?Avoid "Shoulding all over yourself". Living out of your authentic journey allows you to shed the "shoulds", the expectations that drive, challenge, and drain you consistently. Identify 3 that are not productive and take one of them you want to remove today. Reframe and step away from them. Take an inventory of your work and life and determine what falls into "Soul Fuels" and "Soul Sucks". Seek to maximize the fuels and minimize the sucks as much as possible. Shelley's Book: Soulbattical: A Corporate Rebel's Guide to Finding Your Best LifeWhat Shelley is Reading: Four Thousands Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver BurkemanPractice Advantage Reading List** Don't miss out on an extra $10 rebate for all commercial VSP Eye Exams this year!
