gHey there -
Not sure about you, but I’ve officially moved into “fall” mode. Dusted off the pressure cooker and dug out my go-to “comfort food” recipes. (See below for a new fave!) Here are a few reads for easing into your work week.
If you find yourself in an emotional loop, this might help.
How the best leaders shape conversations (HBR gift article)
Straightforward ideas on more productive meetings (Yay!)
If you’re a business owner, you might enjoy this ‘referability quiz’
If this time of year has you a little antsy, check out this somatic intelligence quiz.
Leadership debt: a strong argument for leadership development (not that we needed one.)
Around the Interwebs…
Lunchbox Harvest Muffins - I’m making these on repeat with a few modifications (less sugar, no raisins!)
I love tomatoes. But I like to eat them. Not roll around in them.
Admit it… you do this in meetings too. (Or at least think about it!)
Funny to see what old sites like YouTube looked like “back in the day.”
I read this and immediately thought, “Well, shit! That’s not what I wanted to hear!” Still digesting and waiting for the anxiety to pass…
If you want to up (or start!) your meditation game…
A 3-month free pass for the Waking Up app. Worth your time!
Or… a 30-day free pass for The Way app. Totally different from Waking Up and equally great.
Have a great week!

Corporate Leadership Development - Custom programs for your organization. Not off-the-shelf. Designed around what your people need.
Keynote Speaking - I speak to senior leadership teams about the foundation that makes everything else work: knowing yourself at a deeper level to lead at the next one.
