If you look around and wonder, “Is this all there is for me?” you’ll want to tune in to this episode because you (and only you!) have the ultimate power to change your position in work and in life. When someone tells you NO, what is your reaction? Is it consistent? You are only as limited by your circumstances as you allow. Living your best life is a choice, but you have to be clear on your vision and stick to it, regardless of what’s going on around you. Circumstances aren’t under your control, but your mindset sure is. Emotional awareness plus flexibility and emotionally risky action will get you where you want to go. Focus on what you can control and notice how you are reacting to what’s outside of you. The quicker you do this, the more peaceful and confident you will become.

Are your behaviors on repeat? Do you even know what you’re doing half the time…or why? Rest assured, behavioral patterns are built into our psychology. They help us make quick decisions—like always running the other direction when something is trying to eat you. But sometimes those patterns can be a source of frustration, especially if they don’t result in the desired outcome (like when you’re emotionally triggered and reacting to someone). But you keep doing it because, well, it’s a pattern and you’re on autopilot. And in business, patterns aren’t just about an individual. There are relational patterns that occur when people communicate. So that’s what we’re talking about today: patterns, and how to break the ones that aren’t serving you. It’s a lot easier to disrupt them when you recognize they’re happening and you know what triggers them.

Adopting an all-or-nothing work mentality puts you in a box with very little wiggle room, holding you back from making important decisions. If you are afraid that what you do or say will put you in the smart/stupid or success/failure camp in the minds of others, it will greatly impact your next move. You’ll be drawn to what feels safe. You’ll feel the need to prove you are (or aren’t) what people think you are, instead of being free to succeed in your own way. Success lives in the grey area, not black-and-white. But it’s not just about standing strong doing what you fear; it’s about knowing your WHY. Understanding your motivation builds self-value and gives you the confidence to choose what’s right for you, not what’s “right” for the world.

Welcome to Ace in the Hole, a podcast to help guard against burnout, imposter syndrome and other obstacles that stand in the way of what you want in business. Not what other people want for you, or what you receive accolades for… what YOU want. We like to think our work lives and personal lives are separate, but if you struggle with something personally, it probably shows up professionally (and vice versa). This podcast will focus on how our inner world affects how we show up in business situations and how we act. Each podcast will touch on something to learn, why it’s important, who it impacts and the “secret sauce” to fix it. In this first episode I’ll talk about how you look at your business and the people in it. Do you think you are a failure (identity) if something you do (action) fails? Do you step aside and let your team do their job, or do you micromanage? Being rigid and resistant to change can cause your business to stagnate. Let’s fix that.

A new podcast from Tracy Crossley all about sharing what our secret sauce is that guards against burnout, feeling less than, impostor’s syndrome, etc…anything you bring into your job or business that does not serve you.
