492 - The TOP THREE MINDFULNESS TIPS to work more effectively with your executive team. Melinda Fouts PHD

Episode Summary

Live from the Mind Body Soul Magazine spring release party. I interview PHD of jungian psychology Melinda Fouts. And she is ridiculously smart! Melinda’s article in the spring release is “Executive Coaching with a GROWTH Mindset”. But first we go a little deep on this jungian psychology thing…

Episode Notes

How does one end up with a PHD in jungian psychology? It’s a fun story which she graciously tells.

Which of course leads to burn out as a psychologist. And her subsequent rebirth as an 7 years ago as an executive coach!

“Coaching with an iron fist and a velvet glove.” As she likes to say.

Her top three executive mindfulness tips to work more effectively with your team.

60 seconds to do 5 deep breaths. Bring awareness to the trigger. This gives you time to choose a different response.
Know thyself! That’s why everyone needs a coach. Be aware that you are being triggered. Silence is your friend. Be open to the fact that maybe you are being triggered.
Asking questions keeps you in the power seat. This keeps you out of the emotional part of the brain.

And Oh Yeah! Her book “Cognitive Enlightenment”. It’s all about ways to discipline your mind not to let anyone disrupt your inner peace.
