We Belong – CLAIM Yourself

On today's episode, Dea Irby, The Belonging Mentor, shares her passion for helping people to feel connected. This stems from the foundational statement that everyone wants to feel a sense of belonging and involvement in a positive community. We discuss how focusing on helping others to feel connected in your personal and professional life is the best way to build your self-care and your ability to be an effective leader. We talk about how to use the CLAIM acronym throughout the divorce to ground yourself, your kids, and if you are a business owner or leader, your staff.We talk through the five thoughts or ideas to create a sense of community on a big scale or on a small scale. By breaking it down into the CLAIM strategy, you can focus on making everyone feel involved, cared for, valued, and important – and isn’t that the most important thing we can do for all people in our lives?For a great message, tune into Dea’s TEDx talk: https://bit.ly/DIrbyTEDx . About the Guest:Through many adventures over the decades, Dea Irby has learned that building community is the most valuable aspect of leadership.
