    Workplace Jealousy: Defeating the Green Eyed Monster

    As monsters go, Jealousy is one of the scariest. Nothing makes you feel less safe than being the target of someone's envy. You don't know who you can trust or what (mis)perceptions your coworkers might have about you. Listen in to learn how to thrash Ol'Green Eyes. Jealousy feeds on lack. Any situation where resources like a promotion, raise, leadership role, positive attention, etc. are scarce can spawn it. Jealousy uses confirmation bias as a weapon. When someone is jealous, they become blind to a person's good qualities and hyper fixated on their shortcomings. You can use Jealousy as a mirror. When you understand what activates it, you can gain a lot of clarity about the big picture and interpersonal dynamics. Comparisons with others give Jealousy superpowers. Comparisons to your past selves gives you superpowers as you appreciate how far you've come. Remember to factor in personal priorities so you see your whole life, not just your work life. Collaborations are a Jealousy repellent because they create "parallel" work opportunities help everyone play to their strength instead of wasting energy trying to one up each other.

    Conflict Resolution: Understanding your Conflict Handling Style

    Conflict shouldn't produce a trauma response, but it so often does. If you find yourself fighting back like a vigilante hero, caving in while you silently stew, or running away from the issue (and people), you need to develop some better skills.  Listen in to learn more. We all have different ways of responding to conflict based on how comfortable we are with encountering it. When it feels adversarial, a healthy response is hard to summon. When we believe in something, it's difficult not to get emotionally attached and feel personally attacked when that cause isn't accepted by others. Collaborative conflict handling helps to move past assumptions about the other party and move towards a better understanding of the issues underlying a position taken. The goal is to arrive at a solution that allows the best that can happen, not the best in your opinion.

    How to Overcome Imposter Syndrome

    You might not be a world class expert or the ultimate authority on an issue you care about. Maybe you can't teach the graduate level class on it. Guess what?  Most people need the intro level information. And you can share it. In a way that's far more relatable and useful than most experts. Listen in to this episode to overcome imposter syndrome and leverage who you are and what you know. Imposter syndrome is most likely to inflict people who feel they don't belong. Yet your voice as a young professional, woman, minority reflects a much needed diverse and accessible point of view. You know you have Imposter syndrome if you've dealt with any of the following: fear of failing, fear of success/being too visible, perfectionism, analysis paralysis, overperfoming, chasing qualifications. Don't wait and hope for an opportunity. Make one for yourself by taking action instead of waiting for permission. Celebrate the little wins- they build momentum and provide you with the receipts that prove you are not a fraud.

    Is Your Job Default or Deliberate? Find Work You Love Doing.

    Stop being the pick me person. You know, the one who tries way to hard but still doesn't get the payoff. In this episode, you'll get the downlow on how to focus on what you want to be known for. There are no accidents. Your fear of success is the only thing blocking you from opportunities. Focusing on what you want to be known for is way different than ambition. It's your differentiator, your personal brand, how you are inspired to make a difference. Once you understand your brand, you can easily determine whether to say yes to an opportunity (even if it feels terrifyingly risky) or whether it's not the best use of your valuable time, talent and energy. When you communicate your brand, others start to bring you opportunities for things you actually want to do. Be clear about what you want, but open to the fact that it can look different that the way you thought it would. You will evolve as a person and your life circumstances will change, but your why will keep you consistently moving toward a life and job you love. Nothing is ever wasted. Every aligned action is helping to build the foundation of the success you want.

    Leverage Your Motivation Style

    Have you been accepting the premise that success is only about meeting expectations, validation and obligations? If you want a career in different areas, listen to this episode to learn what's really behind success: motivation. There are two types of motivation. Intrinsic motivation is all about the love of doing something while extrinsic is about earning a reward or avoiding a punishment. Our culture is set up on an extrinsic system, trapping many people into a life where they are disconnected from their passions because they are too afraid of what they can lose if they don;t do what's expected. We need both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation to be successful on our own terms. Learning your dominant motivation style and how to bring in your less dominant one when needed let's you live a balance life.

    You're Not Meant for Mediocrity

    Did you think shining bright was just about drawing attention to yourself? Let's change that channel right now. You have a purpose and when you live it unapologetically, the light you shine in service to others also lights up the career paths of other creatives who want to make a difference. Normalize success, knowing that anything you leave behind is in exchange or something so much greater. Fear of failure put a ceiling on your potential, keeping your light dim. When will the discomfort of being where you are today outweigh the comfort of the familiar? See how you can, not why you shouldn't Get More from Your Daily 24 Free Coaching Clinic https://mailchi.mp/d6b7caefee71/24jtcxh6ob Check out my Stressless Success Course here: https://architectingpodcast.com/index.php/stressless/ Give Architecting a Google review- be sure to name the episode! https://g.page/r/CVYGVmEtsUjdEAI/review Stay Inspired, Angela Join the architecting community: YouTube, Instagram,  LinkedIn, Clubhouse, Facebook Interested in sponsoring a show or having me as a guest on your podcast or community?

    From Accomplice to Your Own Struggle to Advocate for Your Success and Well Being

    *womp womp* You walked out of that meeting feeling about 3" tall. Before you slide into depression or get angry, think about how you were an accomplice to your own misery.  Today I'm talking about how I learned not to get triggered by imagined or real bad actors. Listen in to hear how I stopped being an accomplice to other people and shifted to being an advocate for my own success. Become better at listening and understanding others by being present, reading the room, having empathy and meeting others where they are. Verify that your understanding of someone's communication is correct and not distorted by the bias of your own assumptions. Mirror positivity: learn more by listening to Episode 108 Mirroring and Magnetism: Techniques for Positive Outcomes here https://architecting.podbean.com/e/mirroring/ You are an accomplice when you meet adversity with more adversity and multiply what you don't want. You are an accomplice when your insecurities or limiting beliefs cause you to accept the premise of someone's criticism and define your worth. You are an accomplice when your personal standards are low and make you available for poor treatment. Positivity leads to possibilities. Be an advocate for yourself instead of an accomplice in feeling bad.

    The 25% Rule to get You Through Even the Worst Day

    Having a no good, terrible, very bad day? In this episode, I answer a question from a  member of our Architecting community on how to have more good days and how to be more gentle with yourself on those less than good ones. It's tempting to overgive on a bad day because you feel guilty, but that's the worst thing you can do because stress impacts your focus, cognitive ability, creativity and mood. Reserve 25% of your energy for self care each day. On a low energy or stressful day it's even more important to be gentle with yourself. Make a hard day easier by taking time to reset, prioritizing low key tasks that give you small wins and finding fun and enjoyable ways to keep momentum going like hand sketching or model building. Build up resources you can leverage. Delegate more to others and build up their skill sets, know who you can ask for help, hire support for errands, childcare, or homekeeping.
