How do you excuse yourself? One of the ways we play small and sell ourselves short, is we excuse ourselves from acting courageously. We stop ourselves by coming up with excuses that let us off the hook. Often this is an unconscious process, and so we buy into our own excuse-making and rationalize our way to holding ourselves back. As we strive to live courageously, we will do well to have the knowledge and ability to differentiate real constraints and…...

One of the most important skills we can develop is that of communicating. Our ability to express ourselves and to receive and hear what the other says, and understand the exchange, is the ability that can make or break a relationship. And most work and projects and even ways of existing in the world today, is through relationship -it is with another or with groups of people.

Or we can shift to our Champion orientation, where we are solution-focused, outcome driven, and relate to others in a more empowering way. In this Masterclass we look at 3 critical questions that help us move from the Opponent outlook and Drama Triangle (playing the victim, rescuer and persecutor roles) to the Champion outlook and…...

Could we change the world by changing the type of conversations we have? What if we were to have more conversations that are full of meaning and purpose, that shift things forward, that help us (and others) grow? These conversations are the ones that mean a lot and count, and that is part of why we find them so difficult to have. They change things, and change is scary. These are courageous conversations. In this masterclass we look at 7…...

We can choose to live differently. We can choose to live wholeheartedly and courageously, where we pick growth over safety, and abundance over scarcity.  We can show up fully – as fallible humans, learning, growing, stumbling, and standing up again.  And we can give of ourselves, sharing as much as we can, contributing more and adding value. To live courageously means we consciously have to make this choice, and consciously and actively have to take the actions that allow us…...
