Are you struggling with self-care?   I don’t know about you, but I’ve been grinding my butt off this past year.  I’ve found myself working even harder in the pandemic as I’ve been having difficulty separating work from home. I’ve really been neglecting my self-care, and I know I’m not alone.   It’s so important to make sure you take good care of your body, mind, and soul everyday, not just when you get sick. Learning how to master your environment, create a routine, eat right, reduce stress, exercise regularly, and take a time-out when you need it are touchstones of self-care that can help you stay healthy, happy, and productive.    Practicing self-care isn’t always easy.  Me-time is usually last on the agenda. And we can sometimes feel guilty about taking the time required to take care of ourselves.     While getting started with self-care can be challenging, hopefully this #YAPSnacks episode leaves you inspired to take on more you-time this coming 2021.  Sponsored by Snackmagic: Head over to www.SnackMagic.com and use promo code YAPSNACKS for 10% off your entire order.

You might have heard of the book Lean In… but have you heard of Lean Out ?   In this week’s episode, we are talking with Marissa Orr, former Google and Facebook executive as well as the best-selling author of Lean Out. After spending 15 years working at today’s top tech giants, she transitioned her career to be a best-selling author and speaker across the globe.   In today’s episode, we’ll first sort out the differences between Lean In and Lean Out, the gender stereotypes that burden many workplaces, and we’ll uncover old power structures that still hold true today. We’ll also discuss Marissa’s time at Google, her uncomfortable interactions at Facebook, and how to make a real difference no matter what obstacles you face!   Social Media:    Follow YAP on IG: www.instagram.com/youngandprofiting Reach out to Hala directly at Hala@YoungandProfiting.com Follow Hala on Linkedin: www.linkedin.com/in/htaha/ Follow Hala on Instagram: www.instagram.com/yapwithhala Check out our website to meet the team, view show notes and transcripts: www.youngandprofiting.com   Timestamps:   01:47 - Difference Between Lean in and Lean Out 05:13 - Why We Have Gender Stereotypes 9:02 - Why Aggressive Women Have Consequences 12:00 - Google Personality Tests 15:53 - Legacy Systems and Underlying Power Structures 18:58 - Narrow Definitions and How to Get Outside Them 25:55 - How Managers Can Make Real Change 31:26 - Opinions on Ways COVID Has Changed the Workplace 34:33 - Marissa’s Journey as a Speaker 43:06 - How Facebook Wanted to Put Boundaries on Marissa’s Blog 49:52 - Story of Marissa’s HR Nightmare 55:21 - Why Marissa Stayed at Facebook For as Long as She Did 56:37 - Why Women are So Competitive 58:58 - Expectations After Marissa Published Her Book 1:03:24 - Marissa’s Secret to Profiting in Life   Mentioned in the Episode:   Marissa’s Book, Lean Out: https://www.marissaorr.com/the-book/ Marissa’s Podcast, Nice Girls Don’t Watch the Bachelor: https://nice-girls-dont-watch-the-bachelor.sounder.fm/ Marissa’s Website: https://www.marissaorr.com/ Marissa’s LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marissaorr Marissa’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/marissabethorr/
