From over-achieving burn-out to high-performing ease

As a single mother, our mom raised us to be strong, self-reliant go-getters…it’s who she was so it’s who I became.
As an overachieving founder and CEO, learning to accept help, to allow myself to receive…love, support, and even gifts…has been quite the learning journey for me…
MY OVER-ACHIEVER WAS CONVINCED THAT:
? I stay safe by taking charge?
? Success only comes from hard work
? Is has to be perfect to be good enough
? For things to be done well, I have to do it myself
? Time is money so relaxing is a complete waste of time?
MY HIGH-PERFORMER NOW UNDERSTANDS THAT :?
?? I must scale my leadership by teaching the PRINCIPLES that inform my thinking…
“Give a person a fish, you feed them for a day, teach them how to fish, you feed them for a lifetime.”

By understanding the PRINCIPLES that guide my thinking, they now know HOW I think and can make decisions on their own in a way that aligns to the vision and the principles that guide our collective work
?? My over-functioning (solving every problem, coming up with all the solutions, doing it all myself) actually prevents the team from growing and kills me slowly in the process
Giving them space to fail helps us all grow?
?? Success comes from staying in my genius and allowing myself to be supported, not by my own strength alone but from the collective strengths of the team?
?? Excellence is a journey and progress is more important that perfection?
?? Sustaining peak performance to achieve sustainable success requires rest, restoration and recovery
Making the shift from a the fear-based energy-draining overachiever to an optimism-based energy-fueling high performer is central to staying at the top of your game.?
The #relaxedhustle is more than just a cute tagline…it’s a formula…a standard of success informed by a set of principles, science-based strategies, and the lifelong learnings of my recovering stress addicted overachieving perfectionist….i meeeeean, the title alone ??
The RelaxedHustle is who we are, it’s the work we do, it’s who we want you to become?
Being here means you’re on the journey too and I’m glad to have you with us?
