I was recently interviewed about my new book by Kathryn Thompson, host of Be the Sought After Entrepreneur. We had an exciting conversation about my book, Mouse in the Room, and I went over some key points on being the bad-ass leader people want to follow! We discuss: How to have radical personal transformation. The RIGHT way to say what's on your mind so you don't have regrets. Your roadmap to truth. How to take advantage of the 3D Process. Create the space for what's truly meant to come to you. A request for help! If it resonates, we would love for you to be part of the mouse naming revolution! Here's how you can do that: Get the book at Mouse in the Room or Amazon.  (Psst! There are some amazing bonuses for you!) If you think Mouse in the Room deserves 5 stars, please leave a review on Amazon. Post on social media that you got the book. Mouse naming is hard to do in isolation and easier if everyone does it! Let your friends have the opportunity to mouse name as well. We have some awesome promotional content and assets you can use on our site. Kathryn Thompson is an award-winning marketing and communications expert, and the Founder of Creatively Owned. đ€ For show notes and past guests, please visit http://focus.ceo/podcast đ Become a Better Leader. Check out my book, Mouse in The Room: http://www.mouseintheroom.com đ Get the Double Your Revenue Samurai Webinar for Free: focus.ceo/doubleyourrevenue đ° Download the free 6 min video "How to Double Your Revenue by Focusing on Less" at http://focus.ceo/focusvideo âĄïž Follow David: Twitter: http://twitter.com/_focusceo Instagram: http://instagram.com/_focusceo Facebook: http://facebook.com/extraordinaryfocus YouTube: http://youtube.com/c/ExtraordinaryFocuswithDavidWood LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/focus-ceo/

There's a dark or shadow side to everyone, and often that dark side shows up when we're emotional or have charge with someone. The key is to heal that 'shadow' and communicate with compassion and respect - as difficult as that may be. In this episode, I interview Matthew Mitchell, a transformational speaker and coach I think may be even bolder than I am with speaking his truth. We talk about: -Shadow sides and what shows up in his shadow -What is the shadow and who has one -What made me trust and respect him more -The dangers of not speaking with compassion -Why it's important to speak with love -What I realized was missing from my Tough Conversations model -How to access love, respect and compassion even when you have charge -The importance of knowing where your lines are drawn -The power of modeling behavior -How not to vilify the other person and more. Are you able to speak with love and compassion when you're in disagreement with someone? I'd love to hear about a conversation you had with love - or one that you wish you did!

What do you do when someone stands you up? Do you address it? Or... Don't rock the boat. Don't make waves. Don't bring up something that might be awkward for both people and could go horribly wrong. Do these seem like familiar strategies? Unfortunately, staying silent can harm the relationship. In this episode, Adam Lewis Walker and I talk about a real life tough conversation I decided to have with him, and what it was like for him to be on the other side of it. *** For show notes and past guests, please visit http://playforreal.life/podcast Sign up for David's email newsletter and download the 4-Step Tough Conversations blueprint at http://playforreal.life/blueprint See if you qualify for a free discovery session to explore coaching with David at http://playforreal.life/coaching Join the free weekly zoom call to role-play your tough conversations at http://playforreal.life/zoomregister 70% of employees are avoiding a tough conversation.

Derek Loudermilk, host of The Art of Adventure podcast, interviewed me on a book he's writing, and I recorded it for my own records. But as I listened to the playback I realized that there was so much good content in it about what makes a great leader and leadership as a practice, and more, that I couldn't not share it with you. The audio is lower quality, but if you can get past the typing sounds, I think you'll be glad you listened to this one. We cover: -How can we develop as leaders given today's challenges? -Inside out leadership: to lead others you, first lead yourself -Why personal growth is crucial -You'll be a terrible speaker if who you are is a terrible person -How speaking is leading -How to be watchable on stage -How to lead a team for real -Why you can't lead from a manual -The importance of acknowledging and praising yourself first -How can you expect your team to do something you won't do? -Mastering Tough Conversations is an unconventional path to leadership -How David's speaking radically changed, almost overnight. -Being natural and authentic in front of 1000 people -How I was able to sell $337,000 worth of product in 15 minutes -How to begin developing yourself as a leader -The concept of vulnerability and knowing yourself -The manager I coached to be able to receive feedback -Why you should confront your soft spots NOW, before you get into a leadership position -The Fly on the Wall leadership exercise: you should try it!

I deliberately recorded this episode while very sick in bed; barely moving. Many spiritual paths teach us to practice gratitude and appreciation. My teacher always said "What is the maximum potential of this moment?" Byron Katie might say "Love what is". Well that seems all fine and dandy for minor annoyances in life, but what about when you're truly suffering? Well I hit record and then gave it by best attempt â to truly enjoy my experience of being incredibly sick. How did I do? *** For show notes and past guests, please visit http://playforreal.life/podcast Sign up for David's email newsletter and download the 4-Step Tough Conversations blueprint at http://playforreal.life/blueprint See if you qualify for a free discovery session to explore coaching with David at http://playforreal.life/coaching Join the free weekly zoom call to role-play your tough conversations at http://playforreal.life/zoomregister 70% of employees are avoiding a tough conversation.

Everyone may have a victimization experience in their life. It's something you can't control, is usually scary, but it isn't the same as victimhood. Dr. Saida Desilets tells her powerful story of not only overcoming a traumatic rape and possible death, but also the power of choosing to not be a victim. How can you apply this to your own life? We also talked about: -What are some common ways we show up as victim? -Do we have a choice to be a victim, or is it choice-less? -What about in the work environment? -What are some subtle ways we slip into victim-hood? -Learn a simple yet powerful way to shift from victim to leader. -How embodied leadership can change everything for you -The power of sitting with who you really are Dr. Saida DĂ©silets wants to live in a world filled with audacious, sexually sovereign women, living life on their own terms. Saida is renowned for being the founder of the modern Jade Egg movement and visionary spokesperson for sexual Sovereignty, and has created The Daring Projectâassisting women to audaciously move from being a victim to confidently thriving in life. When she's not dancing with her husband, you can find Saida leading Wilderness Safaris for women in South Africa or writing deliciously sensual poetry.
