There's a time for everything. There's a time to open doors and there is a time to close doors. There's a time to start something and there is a time to put an end to it. You may have noticed that the podcast hasn't been released for a couple of weeks. It's at this time that I let you know that we will be putting an end to The Heart of Leadership Podcast for the time being. We aren't closing the door forever, but there is no current plan to resume it in the near future. It is a bitterswee...
Are you exhausted, tired or burnt out? Are you overwhelmed with all the work you have to do? Do you lack motivation, lack passion and have a loss of focus? Do you need help getting back on track but you don't know where to start? You don't let your car run on empty, so don't let yourself run on empty! In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, I welcome back my brother and business partner, Craig McIntyre, as we switch roles and he asks me questions about my new book, "Focus Fuel: ...
"Who do you think you are? Do you really think you can do that? I don’t think so! You’re not like everyone else!" "What makes you think you can do that? You’ve failed before. It’s going to be no different this time around. You don’t have what it takes!" Do you find that you tend to compare yourself to others only to try and prove to yourself that you don’t measure up to them? They are way more successful than you ever will be. They are at a way better point of life than you are and you can ne...
To be or not to be? That is the question! This new year is less than two weeks underway and we have already set some goals for the next year and that's awesome! But often we are so focused on having a "to-do" list that we miss the big picture. We want to accomplish things. We want to keep ourselves busy. And while that's great, we shouldn't just be focusing on a daily to-do list. We really should be more concerned about another list. A "to-be" list. In this episode of The Heart of Leader...
2020 is officially over and a new calendar year is upon us. 2021 is here and that means saying goodbye to everything to do with 2020 right? Well, not exactly. While many of us want to just throw 2020 in the trash, we can't throw everything away. We take memories with us. We take successes. But most importantly, we take lessons learned. What things did you learn in 2020? We all learned a lot. We learned a lot about ourselves, about others and about our world. In this episode of The Heart of ...
Our lives are filled with countless pages and chapters. Some that we are proud of and some that we want to throw away. This past year has been a chapter of our life and 2021 is the same. However, what's to come is different. The rest of our pages are still unwritten. They are blank pages. What will you choose to have written? Will they be filled with regret or will you be intentional with them? Will you choose to keep living in the past or will you look forward to what lies ahead? In th...
Do you ever feel like you can't seem to apply what you're learning? Maybe you heard something really important and you got so excited about hearing it. You had this feeling inside of you when you heard it and you knew it was going to be life changing! But then a couple days or weeks go by and you haven't made any changes. You forgot all about it or you remember that something was important, but you can't seem to remember exactly what it was. I can't imagine the number of important things an...
Can you keep me accountable? How many times have you said those words hoping that someone would help keep you check? Hoping that someone would help make sure you got your task done? Hoping that someone would make sure that you didn't fall back into a bad habit? Accountability from others is awesome and it is a big part of our success. But what happens when others aren't there? They either say they are going to help but then let us down or maybe we don't even have anyone to go to. Now what? D...
Criticism. Something that many of us fear. We try to avoid it at all costs and when we are faced with it, one of our first reactions is to defend ourselves. But that's not always the best thing. What exactly is criticism? What types of criticism are there? Could criticism actually be good and helpful? How should I respond to criticism? In this episode of the Heart of Leadership Podcast, we talk about constructive and destructive criticism, how to respond to it, how to give it out and what we...
Do you feel appreciated? Do you know when you are doing a good job? Do you know the little things you need to tweak to improve and get better? Do you show others that you appreciate them? Do you let them know when they could improve on something? "Good job." "Way to go." "You did great today." "Thanks for doing that. I appreciate it." Aren’t those words nice to hear? What about things like...Could you please go into more detail next time? Would you be able to add pictures throughout the prese...
It's not all about you. Even though we are on this journey of becoming the best version of ourselves, it's not all about you. Your growth is important. Getting better and improving is important. Tapping into your strengths, overcoming your fears and improving your weaknesses are important, but it's not all about you. So, if it's not all about you who is it about? It's also about others. It's about us. When we start to become the best version of ourselves, we help others do the same. We ins...
Just like Garfield the cat, a lot of us hate Mondays. Mondays can seem like the worst. It's the end to a relaxing weekend. It's back to work or school when we don't feel like it. Mondays are a day that many people dread, but they don't have to be. Mondays don't have to be your favorite day, but they also don't have to be your least favorite day either. In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew lists several ways we can make Mondays more enjoyable and start the week off stron...
What if you could change your life with just 30 minutes each day? What if that's all it took to change everything? There are 24 hours in each day. 30 minutes of your day accounts for just 2% of your day. What if you could change your life just by changing that 2%? What if 2% of your day was the difference between mediocrity and greatness? What if it was the difference between failure and success? Between disappointment and joy? Would you choose to pay attention to that 2%? In this episode ...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew encourages you to stop wasting time and take advantage of the time in front of you right now. It has been a hard year and many of us aren't where we want to be. We had goals. We had dreams. We had plans. Maybe we were able to accomplish some of them but the majority of what we hoped for hasn't come to pass. One of our first thoughts is "It's November. I'll just wait until the new year". No. That's the wrong kind of thinking. It won'...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew concludes the series on fear as he encourages you to overcome your fears and to do it scared. One of our first reactions when we face something fearful is to say "I want to but I'm scared. I'm afraid" Fear holds us back from being happy. It takes away our joy. It limits our potential and growth. It lets opportunity after opportunity pass by. It's time to stop letting fear dictate how we live our lives. We weren't meant to...
As we are on this journey of becoming the best versions of ourselves, we have looked at different fears in our lives that are holding us back. One of these fears we talked about last week is the fear of being ourselves. For me to be authentic and transparent with all of you, I need to be able to be myself. So as of today, I am taking a little break from the podcast. I don't envision the break to last too long and I look forward to when I can come back and continue this podcast, but there are ...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew continues the series on fear as he addresses a fear that many of us don't want to face - the fear of being ourselves. Our world is so fascinated by superheroes and supervillains. So many of them wear masks and we celebrate them. We applaud them. We hang pictures of them on our wall. We want to be like some of them. But why? It's not wrong to like them, but why do we celebrate the people that wear masks and not so much the ones that s...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew continues the series on fear as he lightens things up by sharing funny fear stories. We started off the series by talking about fear being defined as an acronym meaning False Evidence Appearing Real and that's exactly what it is. We believe that something scary, threatening, dangerous or something that could potentially cause pain or a threat is real. We turn from a possibility of something happening to a promise that it will happen. ...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew continues the series on fear as he talks about another fear that is present in so many of our lives - the fear of asking for help. Whether it is something small like asking for directions or something big like asking for mental health support, we have a fear of asking for help. Maybe we have been let down before. Maybe we don't want to be a burden to others. Maybe we are supposed to have it all together and we don't want to seem wea...
In this episode of The Heart of Leadership Podcast, Andrew continues the series on fear by focusing on a fear that is hard for so many of us - the fear of forgiveness. Whether it is forgiving others, forgiving ourselves or even receiving forgiveness, we have a fear of forgiveness. We don't want to let people off the hook. We don't want to say what they did was okay. When it comes to ourselves, we don't feel worthy to receive forgiveness for a terrible mistake we made. In this journey o...
