Luci Gabel—On Leadership, Life, Health and Happiness Luci Gabel

There’s one strategic advantage that many businesses are forgetting about right now. What that means for you is— there's a big, gaping opportunity to beat your competitors.



The strategic advantage is your customer's emotional connection to you. Fostering a deep emotional connection is becoming a lost art. If you develop it, it will take you far, far beyond your competitors.



In this episode, I share three big lessons I learned about how to make that emotional connection with customers — making raving fans out of them, creating customers that love you and will stand by you even when you make a mistake, and if your business goes through hard times they'll still be there with you.



I'll also give you three important tips to successfully implement these lessons, because they can be difficult.



You might want to take notes!



This is my podcast on leadership, life, health and happiness. How does it all fit together? Listen in and see.

Do you have a little voice in your head that says "you’re not good enough," "this is going to fail," "people are going to hate you and your work" or "you can’t trust anyone?" 



Everyone has internal saboteurs—even the most the successful people including CEOs in the Fortune 500, & the highest level athletes 



They especially show up when we’re about to do something  you’re never done before —and people in leadership roles are often in this position.



Shirzad Chamine writes in his book, Positive Intelligence, that only 20% of the population and organizations today reach their full potential, and it’s because of these voices in our head.



Listening to these voices may have gotten you to a certain level today, because of the intensity at which they make you work. But according to Shirzad’s research, you can go exponentially further when you learn how to quiet these voices. Because only when you do, can you bring online the parts of your brain that embody intuition, wisdom and higher-level thinking. 



In this episode you’ll find out:


How your mental saboteurs compromise your leadership performance, even though they may motivate you to work harder 


What we know from cutting-edge health science about how your mental saboteurs degrade your physical health 


What neuroscience tells us about how your brain can be rewired to think and perform differently 


The steps you can take to re-train your brain, reduce your sabotage self-talk, reduce your stress, increase your health, and access your vastly untapped potential.

Is there such a thing as healthy conflict ?

There is. And a healthy conflict culture is where people feel safe to talk about differing thoughts and opinions without punishment.

Being able to express yourself about something you don't agree with or tell someone that you see things differently has a lot greater impact than you might imagine.

In this episode, we'll dive into why healthy conflict is important for work and personal relationships and even entire organizations.

And even though conflict might sound scary, I'll share how you can develop the skill of having healthy conflict in a way that creates positive results, and even helps you and the people involved have a much better relationship as you move forward.



Let me know what you think about this episode, any thoughts or questions, and what you'd like to hear about next.

Today I'm talking about how taking time for food and sleep positively affects your leadership abilities— and what to watch out for if you’re not getting enough.



I also share how you can start making time for eating and resting, even when you think you can’t fit it in.



And how, as a leader, you can be more effective at promoting self-care with the people you lead.



In this episode I’m back in LA, taking another walk on the streets. I won’t be doing this for every episode, but I just wanted to give it a test. Let me know what you think about this podcast style in the comments, and what you'd like to hear about next!
