632: How to Change Your State to Change Your Day

Last week I got stuck. A cascade of hard events plus solo parenting for the week plus general pandemic/war/life fatigue caught up with me.  I don’t get stuck often. But every now and then, if I don’t check myself, a series of hard events will send me spiraling into a funkity funk funk.   Last week was a funkity funk funk week for sure.   After sitting in my funkity funk funk for a good 20 hours or so, I decided it was time to pull out my tools.   After many years of defunktifying myself, I know exactly what works for me. After 19 years of coaching women, I know what works for most folks.   If you happen to fall into your own funkity funk funks every now and then, this episode is for you. I’m going to walk you through exactly how to defunktify yourself by changing your state to change your day.   These tools are really simple, but ridiculously and predictably powerful. They WORK.   So, let’s defunktify, shall we?

Welcome to Shameless Leadership! This show is for women, transgender people, non-binary folks, and allies who are committed to advancing their leadership and the leadership of those around them. In this space, we believe everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, valued, and supported. Our mission is to help you foster these feelings within your own circles of influence to build trust, psychological safety, and a culture of belonging. In each episode, we dive into essential topics impacting women in leadership - everything from shutting down your inner critic and imposter syndrome to overcoming perfectionism to using your voice in new ways to advocate for yourself, your ideas, and other folks carrying marginalized identities. You'll hear practical tips, effective strategies, and inspiring stories that will not only enhance your leadership skills but also broaden your perspective to become a more confident, thoughtful, and empathetic leader. Our stories come from people carrying identities who are often underrepresented, underestimated, and excluded. By sharing their experiences, we aim to provide you with invaluable lessons that will transform your leadership journey. We are thrilled to have you join this community of Shameless Leaders who are actively creating a world where everyone, regardless of gender, can intentionally lead through a more curious, compassionate, and inclusive lens.
