Ideas Architect Podcast

In this episode (#112) of the Ideas Architect Podcast, Sandi Givens talks about having courageous conversations. In particular we talk about:

How men and women approach conversations (and business) differently.

Typically, men are more likely to want to hide away in their cave and solve their problems on their own. In contrast, women are more likely seek help from others.

How to manage your mental health demons

Sandi shares her golden rule: just do the next step. Instead of being overwhelmed by the whole process, just take the next step. Plus, we discuss the importance of doing some exercise and making advance decisions.

What are the agreements you are making with yourself?

How to make decisions in advance so you are more likely to commit and perform your tasks day-to-day. And why you ‘should’ avoid the ‘shoulds’.

How we learn best

Drip-feeding content to participants in training is a better approach than the usual water-hose method of providing lots of information to learners all at once in one mind-blowing session.

The power of weekly accountability

Completing your tasks alone can be tough. Accountability to a coach or as part of a program can be a simple addition to your actions that call you to be in a simple and effective way.

The advantage of Webinar Technology

Sandi is running her ‘Find Your Courageous Voice’ as webinar based training. This has enabled her to reach a wider audience across the country, maintain her lifestyle by being able to deliver her sessions from anywhere plus provide the content, accountability and support for her participants.
