    Have you ever wondered what it looks like to tackle implementing accountability in a growing group practice? 
     
    In this episode, I had a conversation with Abby Morgan, a fellow group practice owner who attended The Accountability Equation™ Accelerator in October. We dove deep into the complexities of instilling accountability within her expanding team at Sea Level Counseling & Wellness.
     
    In our discussion, Abby opened up about the hurdles she's facing as her practice grows and roles within her practice change. We explored the critical role of clearly defining leadership roles and the shared responsibilities that come with them, particularly in the hiring process. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to enhance team performance and accountability through proactive communication and strategic leadership.

    The significance of clear role definitions within a leadership team to ensure everyone knows their responsibilities.

Emphasis on proactive communication and collaboration in addressing accountability issues. Abby's pledge to keep accountability discussions at the forefront, recognizing their importance for sustainable growth.  
    This conversation with Abby was incredibly insightful, highlighting that as leaders, we must be intentional about fostering a culture of accountability. It's not just about growth; it's about growing right. Remember, a team that understands their roles and responsibilities is a team that can thrive.

    Episode 236 | Why Your Outward Achievements Don’t Soothe Inner Emptiness with Kasey Compton

    Episode 236 | Why Your Outward Achievements Don’t Soothe Inner Emptiness with Kasey Compton

    Have you ever experienced a time when achieving success didn't lead to the fulfillment and joy you sought?
     
    In this episode, I have a heart-to-heart with Kasey Compton, a therapist, self-love advocate, and accomplished entrepreneur who has led four thriving businesses, propelling her mental health practice into multi-million-dollar territory. We chat about her latest book "In Search of You", which mirrors Kasey's personal quest for meaning beyond success. During our conversation, we uncover how her journey of self-discovery has enriched both her business and personal life.
     
    Here's a snapshot of what we covered in our conversation:
    Kasey opens up about the life experiences that led her to write "In Search of You," sharing her path as a high-achieving woman in search of something more fulfilling. The importance of self-love and introspection when it comes to achieving fulfillment amidst the pursuit of success. We delve into the core message of the book, which encourages women to embark on their own journeys of self-discovery to find deeper satisfaction in life. Kasey’s approach to writing the book, including the challenges she faced and how she overcame them to bring her story to the page.  
    It was truly inspiring to hear Kasey's story and her mission to empower other women through her writing. If you're on a quest for personal fulfillment or know someone who is, I encourage you to read Kasey’s book "In Search of You". Remember, it's not just about what you achieve, but who you become in the process.
