A comprehensive look at how you too can use AI to save time, make tasks simpler, and add value to your life in a variety of areas.

    Practicing the Ownership Mindset, with Kerry Siggins | Ep. 14

    Kerry Siggins is a firm believer that you are responsible for everything that happens to you in life. It’s called the ownership mindset, and that’s exactly what Chantell and Kerry set out to unpack on this week’s powerful episode of Get Real, Get Results. Kerry is the CEO of StoneAge—a manufacturing and technology company known for its employee-owned model. Ever since she accidentally overdosed and almost ended her life 18 years ago, Kerry has been practicing this concept of the ownership mindset—it’s a way of thinking Kerry (and Chantell!) believe can truly transform your life and work for the better.  During their conversation, Chantell invites Kerry to share her incredible story, and together the two women discuss why an ownership mindset is so crucial to leading others and yourself, Kerry’s journey as the CEO of an employee-owned company, and how to guide employees through transitioning well.  Don’t miss this vulnerable, impactful episode all about the power behind owning your own story!  Find out more about Kerry on her website: https://kerrysiggins.com/.  Learn more at: https://chantellpreston.com          LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chantellpreston         YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@ChantellPreston   CHAPTERS 00:00 Taking Responsibility for Your Life01:49 The Ownership Mindset: A Journey of Transformation04:59 Self-Leadership and Its Impact on Team Dynamics09:00 Building an Ownership Culture in the Workplace12:06 Training for Ownership: Core Values and Practices14:47 Navigating Employee Transitions Mindfully17:52 Resilience: Bouncing Forward from Adversity20:01 Empowering Others Through Vulnerability and Growth

    Am I Mean? Or Just Not A Man? | Dismantling Gender Stereotypes At Work

    On this candid episode of Get Real, Get Results, Chantell opens up about a recent incident between her and a male colleague at work. After a heated discussion on job responsibilities, Chantell’s male colleague shared some choice words with her and hung up on their call, prompting Chantell to question if this same type of interaction would have happened if she was also male.  The whole conversation and the proceeding fallout compelled Chantell to examine how exactly women are treated in the places they work, if the fact that women showing emotion should be deemed as “too aggressive,” and how we as women can take back the narrative and regain confidence in how we choose to address work colleagues—both male and female. This is an empowering and honest look at how even well-established women are still being stereotyped in the workplace, and the power found in refusing to change who you are for anyone.  Learn more at: https://chantellpreston.com          LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chantellpreston         YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/@ChantellPreston     CHAPTERS 00:00 Navigating Self-Perception and External Opinions01:05 The Power of Direct Communication03:30 Gender Dynamics in Professional Communication07:20 Emotional Intelligence and Professionalism10:15 Self-Reflection and Personal Growth
