Ideas Architect Podcast

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

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 advanced decisions.

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’.
