Big announcements are coming before the end of the year.
The kind of announcements that, once shared, leave no room for turning back. GULP!
As I write this, I already feel the hot flash coming on and it is not from menopause. LOL
In the last 6 months, my brain has been on overdrive. Regardless of how much training and coaching I do for executives and high performers, it is never easy to mitigate the disempowering dialogue I have with me, myself and I!
Like most humans, my “What If Machine” has been relentlessly trying to sabotage my next steps.
What if I am wrong? What if I cannot deliver the vision? What if people are not ready? What if I fail and fail publicly? And the familiar blah, blah, blah of fear dressed up as logic.
A few weeks ago, I was watching Mel Robbins interview author, screenwriter and producer, Shonda Rhimes. She shared how she committed to saying yes to everything that scared her for one full year. As she said that, my brain and body all at once jolted. I said out loud, “crap!” In that moment, I knew instantly that what I had been going through is my own fear of sharing the next chapter of the future for myself and TeamsynerG Global Consulting. This came on with such a force, and I have been sitting in the impact of it since. So, THIS IS IT, I am holding myself accountable to not be taken out by my WHAT IF MACHINE!
“What If” has been poking at me more this year than at any other time in my life. I am 55, I have been in business for 36 years. I have failed far more than I have succeeded and yet, I am always pulled toward big visions with BIG FAITH! On December 27, 2024, I had major surgery and that recovery forced me to restructure my life, say no more often, build stronger boundaries, and reorder my priorities. It also amplified every doubt, betrayal, failure, regret, and fear. This is the battlefield leaders rarely talk about. The internal fight between all the versions of yourself and the dreams you build.
So, as Simone Vitellaro and I prepare for the IGNITE Workshop on January 10th, I have made a commitment to myself. For the next 40 days, until our event, I am doing a cognitive detox and reset and it starts today. Part of holding yourself accountable is public declarations so here it goes.
40 days of actions that build cognitive discipline to be resilient, rewire my thinking and practice being patient with my humanity. This is not about motivation, it is about dismantling the mental noise of the What Ifs and preparing myself for a year that may carry the biggest risks of my career.
Join me if this speaks to you.
No cost, registration or pressure.
Just a public or silent commitment to yourself.
If something I share in my 40 days through a post, article or video moves you in a new direction, that is a win for both of us.
For everyone registered for the IGNITE workshop on Jan 10th, get ready as this is going to be cognitively wild!!!
2026 HERE WE COME!!!!!
