That "L" Word Signal Fire Media

A “Yes” to something that doesn’t serve you can mean a silent “No” to something that is important in your life. In this episode, Jody and Morgon explore the difference between doing something because you want to do it versus something you feel obligated to do. For every action there is a reaction and it’s often our personal well-being that suffers from saying “Yes” when we really want to say “No.” 
Jody is an Executive Coach and Consultant who loves working with leaders to increase their self-awareness so they can build an amazing organizational culture that no one could imagine leaving. Jody served in the Navy with small, highly elite, Reconnaissance and Special Operations teams for 20 years, and the last decade of his three-decade military career, advising two-star and three-star General Officers with organizations of more than 45k people.

This is a term that one of our listeners wrote in and asked that we talk about. Many people go to work daily and practice quiet quitting. There are even people that get jobs where their sole intention is quiet quitting. Have you heard of this term before? Have you met anyone that you can remember that may have been a quiet quitter? Jody helps Morgon bring to light an occasion where he was a quiet quitter and didn’t even realize it.

One reason people make New Year’s resolutions is because they are not happy with some part of themselves or life. Asking ourselves are we happy is not an annual event it is a self-evaluation that happens for many of us daily. “Am I happy?”, is a great place to start but the question is do you know what makes you happy? Listen to Jody and Morgon talk through how we find the happiness that we seek.

Hmmm… You may be thinking what does that mean? That’s the same question Jody and Morgon asked themselves when they first heard the term. What better way to learn and teach than to discuss toxic positivity in another great episode of That L-Word.
