Legal Back Office’s Post

🩵 This past week was supposed to be the week I wrapped up all the final deliverables for my first cohort of comprehensive program clients. 🌪️ The universe had chaos planned for me instead. ☠️ I wanted to plow through. I wanted to work myself as much as I needed to meet this deadline. I started to feel guilty for letting things I couldn’t control get in the way. 🫶 But self-love won in the end. I talk a lot about embracing imperfection with my clients. About owing yourself kindness and honesty. ☕️ Sometimes it’s tough to do the work you to for others for yourself. But I leaned in and was upfront and transparent. The chaos spinning me did not put me in the right place to do this deeply intentional work. 💐 And guess what? Everyone understood. It was fine. And I’m in a much better position to do this work in the week to come. 🪷 Listening to your body and being upfront about where you are and what you need should never be frowned upon. 🥰 And I am so overfilled with joy that I am truly doing my heart’s work. . . . . . #heartwork #embraceimperfection #dowhatfeelsgood #youdeservetotreatyourselfbetter #holistichealth #wellnesscoaching #integrativemedicine #iinalumni #womanownedandoperated #seattlesmallbusiness #entrepreneurmindset

I would like to express my gratitude to Dr. Grace Daniel for organising this timely event, and to the incredible and engaged audience for making my keynote experience so enjoyable. I look forward to returning, as we still have many more questions to explore. It’s evident that the nature of work landscape is evolving, and as it becomes more global, our personal lives can feel less predictable. In this changing landscape, building resilience against rejection will be essential. Rejection can be painful, but it doesn’t have to be a barrier. By shifting your perspective, practicing resilience, and seeking support, you can turn rejection into a valuable tool for redirection. Remember, every “no” brings you one step closer to a “yes.” Embrace the journey, learn from each experience, and keep moving forward. Rejection is not a sign of failure; it’s an opportunity for redirection. #rejection #redirection #showmeyoucare #unpaidcarers #parentcarers #employeewellbeing #careerprogression

“Great creative minds think like artists but work like accountants.” —David Brooks, New York Times Quoted in the book “Deep Work” by Cal Newport. It hurts to admit sometimes, but this idea is 100% accurate and something I strive for. Waiting for “inspiration” to strike to produce creative work is a horrible plan. Showing up consistently and getting the reps in is a better plan. (Even if it means you don’t have time to post about it) What conditions or rituals yield the most productively for your work? Where can you burn fewer mental calories to make meaningful progress? Happy Saturday! #productivity #deepwork #entreprenership #smallbusiness #focus #saturday

" Fact #1: Our Fundamental of the Week is KEEP THINGS FUN. Our day-to-day work problems are small compared to those facing most of the world. Laugh every day; don’t take things too seriously. Fact #2: I’m not into New Year’s resolutions. Fact #3: I’m making one this year, but first, go with me on a little journey of self-exploration… and we’ll start with my dad. My dad, Bob Morris, invented “cool.” If you ever met him, you know exactly what I mean. " ~ Momentum Consultant, Brett Morris The blog reflects on Brett's attempt to emulate his effortlessly cool dad and the realization that authenticity, rather than coolness, is the true inherited trait. In a humorous resolution, Brett embraces his inner goofball, urging us to join in and keep things fun starting this new year.

🌱Success is rarely a solo journey. It is often the result of many influences, from mentors and colleagues to friends and family. 🔥 Here's why you need to recognize and acknowledge the ones who supported you all this while: ➡️Think 🤔 about work for a sec. Ever had a mentor? That person who’s not just a guide but a game changer, offering advice, and even rooting for you when things get tough. – And let’s not forget about coworkers—those daily allies who don’t just share the coffee pot but also their insights and time. ➡️Moving on to our personal lives—big wins are rarely without the backing of friends and family. They might even put their own stuff on hold to help us out. – How to keep this circle strong? It’s all about giving back the love—grabbing coffee, sending a thank you text, or just hanging out. ✅Ever heard of paying it forward? That’s the gold standard in maintaining healthy relationships. Help out others just like you’ve been helped, and it kind of creates this amazing cycle of  support that keeps on giving. 💡I would like to conclude by saying: Take a minute and think about all the awesome people in your life who’ve played a part in your successes. Maybe drop them a message or just say thanks next time you chat. Everyone likes to feel appreciated, right? #humanpsychology #supportsystem #recognition #passion #hrdevelopment

After tough times, how do we find the energy to keep going? Recently, Brené Brown shared how despair can lead us to question everything—even the value of our work. This feeling of hopelessness is something many of us can relate to, especially in challenging times when “the smallest next right thing” is all we can manage. Brown talks about micro-dosing hope—finding tiny sparks of motivation to support ourselves and those around us. About six months ago, I started a celebration practice and triggered many of the things Brown discusses. A celebration practice is simple. Each morning, take a moment to reflect on something you accomplished or put effort into the day before. It could be as small as a task you completed, a conversation you had, or a decision you made. By intentionally celebrating these moments, you’re building a foundation of self-recognition that fuels ongoing motivation and resilience. I started the celebration practicing after seeing that my clients were better at celebrating others than themselves so we moved celebration to the front. But it also has research backed benefits. As Dr. Loretta Graziano Breuning explains, “Celebrating small steps triggers your brain’s dopamine,” giving us a dose of motivation that helps us keep moving forward (Habits of a Happy Brain). Psychologist Albert Bandura, who studied self-efficacy, showed that recognizing these small wins, or “mastery experiences,” reinforces our belief that we can handle what’s next (Self-Efficacy: The Exercise of Control). And let’s be clear: celebrating doesn’t mean we’re ignoring the tough realities or looking at life through rose-colored glasses. Instead, it’s about intentionally acknowledging small wins to build the resilience needed for the challenges ahead. In difficult times, even the smallest progress is worth celebrating. By consciously noticing what we’ve achieved—even if it’s as simple as taking that next step—we gather the energy, courage, and resilience to continue facing the world as it is. Today, try celebrating one thing you’ve accomplished, no matter how small, and let it remind you of your capacity to navigate through whatever comes next. #MicroDoseHope #CelebrationPractice #Resilience #PowderDayMindset #ProgressNotPerfection

Have you ever been around a little kid who is SO excited to share something with you, that they squirrel their thoughts all over the place? Each middle sentence starts or ends with "and then". Ultimately, they are never really able to share the full story out of pure excitement. Well, that was me three weeks ago. It's taken some time for me to find the right words to explain the experience I had with my fellow #lockton West producers. To be honest, I still don't think I can accurately articulate how I feel. Three weeks ago the Lockton West series producers embarked on a mental and physical workshop with The Liminal Collective. I know, I know... you're thinking; "ugh another team building workshop, woof". Nope, wrong! This was HANDS DOWN the most beautiful work experience I've participated in. I intentionally chose to use the world "beautiful" because the process created an end result that was all the right bits of #vulnerability, strength, #collaboration, fun, communication and #unity. What happens when one person gets vulnerable in a room of some strangers and colleagues? A ripple effect of more vulnerability, encouragement, relatability, connection, lifting and support. What happens when you take all of those parts and add in some fear, self doubt and questions about achieving a difficult task? More support, more strength, more team work, more encouragement. Next thing you know, you are no longer a room full of strangers and colleagues. You are part of this incredible team, in a short amount of time that became like family. It was a good reminder for me that fun is still a key part of growth. That we are only limited by our own thoughts and beliefs. You are not alone. When you focus on the negative "what if" you miss out on all the positive #possibilities. And finally, when something seems like an end; it's the beginning of something greater than you could have ever imagined. I can't remember where I read this quote, but it seems pretty accurate for this moment in time. "You don't have to be great to start, you just have to start to be great". #trusttheprocess #ittakeswork #begreat #locktonlife

The $UCCE$$: The success is a continues journey with several walls of hurdles along the way to teach the lessons. On this journey, there are more competition at the beginning , not at the ends. But limited knowledge makes several people fail on their journeys. And The first $ is your investment like time or money etc. The last $$ is your benefit.
