Ep 204. Get a GRIP on your goals with guest Kjristen Klein Dec 07, 2023

Host: Welcome to the Bold Goal Crusher podcast. In this episode, we have Kjristen, a serial entrepreneur, volunteer for SCORE, a small business mentorship program, and co-author of "Get a Grip on Goals."
Guest: Thank you so much for having me here, Sara.

Discussion about the GRIP System:

Host: Kjristen, could you tell us a bit more about the GRIP system and how it aids in goal management?
Kjristen: The GRIP system, an acronym for Goals, Requirements, Issues, and Plan, is an iterative goal management process. It helps in identifying what one wants, the necessary requirements, obstacles (issues), and an actionable plan.
Host: It sounds like a powerful tool for setting and achieving goals. Can you explain how someone can start with any element of the GRIP system?
Kjristen: Absolutely. The GRIP system allows you to begin anywhere in the process, whether it's defining your goals or identifying the issues or obstacles. It's a flexible framework that can adapt to various starting points, ensuring a comprehensive approach to goal achievement.
Host: I see how the GRIP system allows for continuous improvement. How can someone revise their goals effectively during this iterative process?
Kjristen: Continuous use of the GRIP system is crucial. It helps in refining goals based on the evolving understanding of requirements and obstacles. By addressing issues and adjusting the plan, individuals can align their goals with their evolving aspirations and circumstances.

Factors Affecting Goal Achievement:

Host: Kjristen, you mentioned avoidance techniques that hinder goal attainment. Can you elaborate on some common avoidance categories and how to address them?
Kjristen: Avoidance techniques often include comparison with others, perceived obstacles, self-judgment, and negative predictions. Identifying these behaviors is crucial in understanding the root cause of avoidance. From there, one can devise strategies to overcome them, thereby increasing the likelihood of goal achievement.

Tailoring Goals to Personal Needs:

Host: How can individuals ensure their goals align with their personal values and needs?
Kjristen: Considering the six basic human needs, including safety, adventure, belonging, uniqueness, growth, and contribution, is pivotal in goal setting. Goals that fulfill one or more of these needs tend to be more meaningful and motivating. It's essential to strike a balance and ensure that the pursuit of goals contributes positively to one's life.

Incorporating Goals into Daily Life:

Host: Balancing personal goals with daily responsibilities can be challenging. How can individuals seamlessly integrate their goals into their routines?
Kjristen: Utilizing specific time slots or trigger events, which act as reminders or cues, can help in incorporating goal-oriented activities into daily schedules. Breaking tasks into manageable chunks, such as 20-minute intervals, can ensure consistent progress without feeling overwhelmed.

Overcoming Time Management Challenges:

Host: Time management is often a hurdle in pursuing one's goals. How can individuals navigate time constraints and maintain focus?
Kjristen: Understanding the triggers of time mismanagement, such as overwhelming workloads or ineffective time utilization, is crucial. Implementing strategies like the 20-minute rule and June bugging, where tasks are broken into manageable intervals, can promote productivity and help individuals stay on track with their goals.

Conclusion:

Host: Thank you, Kjristen, for sharing these valuable insights on goal setting and management. It has been an incredibly insightful conversation.
Kjristen: You're welcome. It was my pleasure to discuss these critical aspects of achieving one's goals.

Ep 179. A Year of Focus Equals Big Results with Guest Nesha Pai Sep 14, 2023

Introduction:

In this exciting episode, we welcome back a repeat guest, Nesha, a first-generation Indian American from the South. Her life has been filled with challenges, including facing racism, sexism, and mental health struggles while navigating marriage, divorce, and single motherhood. However, she transformed these obstacles into opportunities, and we explore her inspiring journey in this conversation.

Episode Highlights:

Nesha's journey started when she left her job after a boss denied her a raise due to a perceived "mom gap" in her resume. Determined to create a better life, she started her accounting firm in 2011, empowering women through hiring and supporting stay-at-home moms with unique virtual office structures.

With a mission to educate small business owners on financial literacy, Nesha created a digital course. After six months of hard work and support from a mentor, she successfully launched the course, generating $7,000 in revenue during the first launch.

Nesha's passion for flexibility and a digital nomad lifestyle led her to test her capabilities with a one-month solo trip to Paris. This adventure proved to her that she could work from anywhere, and she's planning a three-month stay in Paris in the future.

While Nesha has had tremendous success with her business, it took 12 years to reach where she is today. Her journey started with just one client, but she persisted, growing her client base and living out her dreams step by step.

Conclusion:

Nesha's story serves as an inspiration to all entrepreneurs. Her journey exemplifies the power of focus, consistency, and resilience. From starting with one client to building a thriving business, she has overcome challenges and embraced opportunities. Now, she is determined to become a global speaker and share her experiences and expertise with audiences worldwide.

Ep 170. Mastering Self-Discipline: Building Habits for Goal Success Aug 14, 2023

Introduction:

Hello, Bold Crushers! Welcome to another exciting episode of the Bold Goal Crusher podcast. I'm thrilled to have you here today as we delve into the crucial topic of mastering self-discipline and how it leads to achieving our goals.

Episode Highlights:

Self-discipline is the key to managing ourselves effectively and achieving our goals. Time cannot be managed; it's about managing our actions and habits.

Understanding the science of self-discipline is essential for personal growth and success.

Building positive habits and replacing negative ones is crucial for reaching our goals. Habits significantly influence our daily lives and can make or break our progress.

The habit loop, consisting of cues, routines, and rewards, plays a vital role in establishing good habits. Identifying cues and setting up routines can help solidify these habits.

Willpower and decision fatigue are interconnected. Making too many decisions throughout the day depletes our willpower. Strengthening willpower involves stacking difficult tasks early in the day and being kind to ourselves.

Staying consistent with self-discipline requires establishing routines and setting realistic deadlines for our goals. Squeezing deadlines can help maintain focus and motivation.

Embracing a growth mindset is essential for long-term success. Viewing setbacks as learning opportunities and challenges as stepping stones will strengthen self-discipline.

Conclusion:

Developing self-discipline and building habits that lead to goal success is within your reach. Take a proactive approach to manage your daily schedule and align it with your goals. Don't leave your achievements to chance; take action today and start cultivating the self-discipline needed to make your bold goals a reality.

Thank you for tuning in today. Remember, you have the power to set and crush your bold goals without having to work double time. Stay focused, stay disciplined, and keep striving for greatness!

Ep 166. Are you Contributing to the Hustle Culture? Jul 31, 2023

Introduction:

Welcome to The Bold Goal Crusher Podcast! In this episode, we delve deep into the pervasive "hustle culture" that has been glorified in our society. Join us as we explore the detrimental effects of relentlessly adding more to our plates and working non-stop without taking care of ourselves and living life on our terms.

[00:50:58] Success-driven strategies: The hosts discuss the key traits of truly successful individuals within their organization.

[00:52:00] Reflection and evaluation: The hosts highlight the significance of regularly evaluating one's progress and learning from each week's experiences to make positive changes moving forward.

[00:53:21] Rethinking our values: Our hosts encourage listeners to reevaluate their participation in hustle culture and ponder whether it aligns with the life they genuinely desire for themselves and the example they want to set for others.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, it's time to challenge the hustle culture and its negative effects on our lives.

Ep 52. The Bold Women Society with guests Amanda Cahill and Caytie Langford Jun 23, 2022

Amanda Cahill + Caytie Langford founded the Bold Women Society. They are unapologetic about helping women create their biggest, BOLDEST career and life!

After a decade and half of working, Caytie she found herself as a successful nonprofit executive. She also found herself crying in her corner office because she knew "this" wasn't it. She decided she was done living life by someone else's design. When she decided to pivot, it was difficult for her to find stories of other women breaking the rules or pursuing dreams in a non-traditional manner. She started coaching other women who wanted to make professional and personal changes.

Over the course of a decade, Amanda Cahill quickly climbed the corporate ladder and created a name for herself in her industry. From the outside looking in, it seemed as though she had it all: a great career, strong relationships, and an enthusiasm that radiated in all that she did. Despite this, something was missing. Amanda set out to find supportive, like-minded women who were also feeling stuck, unfulfilled, and unsure of what the next step in life could be.  She found women who were hungry to connect as they navigated uncertainty and carved a path toward their dreams. 

When Amanda met Caytie, they brought their shared vision for Bold Women Society™ to life. Their dream is to help other women share their stories, and to inspire others to go after whatever it is they want in life.

In this episode we talk about:

[1:35] How the Bold Women Society was created

[8:53] What it means to be BOLD

[12:10] Everyone could use more confidence from time to time

[15:00] Step into your role as the main character
