In this week’s episode of the SIMPLE brand podcast, I talk with Sara Ross, author of Dear Work: Something Has to Change!
Sara’s an international keynote speaker and the founder of the leadership research firm BrainAMPED. She’s transforming the future of work by using the power of brain science to amplify organizational vitality, and by helping people work, lead, and succeed in healthy, high-performing, human-centric ways.
It’s no secret that too many leaders and too many professionals feel like they’re stuck in a complicated work environment. Too many feel like they’re constantly running on fumes. Overworked and under-living. And overwhelmed – even if they feel like they love the work they do, or at least used to.
Thankfully, Sara has the strategies to simplify that as you boost your work vitality, stand out, and bring your best, most energized self to your career and your other important life areas.
Some of the topics we discuss include:
- How thinking of your work like a relationship is valuable for your career
- What’s causing so many professionals to have a “toxic relationship” with their work
- How you can raise your vitality in your work (and other life areas)
- Recognize that your energy will ebb and flow – and that’s natural and okay
- You can instill your purpose into interactions and aspects of your role instead of struggling to find that purpose-driven role
- The “success traps” that can actually confine you in your work
- Placing too much focus in one life area is detrimental to the other major life areas
- You need to be as intentional about resting as you are about working
