    One Question To Feel Happier Every Day: curing "I'll be happy when..." mind disease.

    What if joy wasn’t something you earned after life behaved, but something you could create today? We explore a simple, repeatable tool that helps you stop waiting for perfect conditions and start building real happiness in your life as it is today. We talk about the hidden cost of “I’ll be happy when,” why high achievers often suffer more when things won’t budge, and how to draw a clear line between what you can and can’t control. To keep your mind from spiraling, we share a visualization that helps you to live with unsolved issues peacefully without denying them.  The deeper takeaway is that peace isn’t the absence of problems; it’s the presence of choice inside problems. By practicing this one question morning and night, you train selective attention, reclaim agency, and build a steadier baseline of happiness regardless of external chaos. If you’re ready to stop postponing joy until ... this conversation gives you a toolkit to do that. Listen, try the question for a week, and watch what shifts. If it helps, share the episode with a friend who needs it, and leave a quick review so we can reach more people learning to live with more calm, gratitude, and courage.

  2. 2-minute practice to make change last with Lisa Broderick, a co-author of Permanence: become the person you want to be and stay that way.

    2-minute practice to make change last with Lisa Broderick, a co-author of Permanence: become the person you want to be and stay that way.

    We sat down with Lisa Broderick, CEO of Marshall Goldsmith Advisors and co-author of a new book Permanence: Become the Person You Want to Be and Stay That Way, to unpack a 2-minute practice that helps high-achievers, leaders and teams start compounding wins into lasting change.  We walk through the Daily Questions Method and the crucial shift from outcome obsession to effort tracking. Lisa explains why willpower collapses under stress, how comparison culture hijacks identity, and how a tight feedback loop builds lasting habits using your brain’s reward system.  Beyond the core ritual, we dive into other practical tools you can use immediately to grow and improve permanently. Feedforward replaces backward-looking critiques with future-focused guidance you’ll actually act on. The hero exercise turns admired qualities into your personal North Star. The wheel of change helps you decide what to keep, what to let go, and what to accept—so your motivation stops leaking into unwinnable fights. For teams, we outline a simple rollout: lightweight 360s to pick 3 behaviors, a shared cadence, and leaders modeling effort scores. Expect a clear, repeatable framework for personal growth and culture change, one that takes minutes, not meetings, and scales from individual habits to organizational norms. Ready to trade resets for lasting results? Subscribe, share this with a friend who wants to grow, and tell us: which 3 behaviors will you track this week? Short BIO: Lisa Broderick is a seasoned C-suite executive, corporate board member, and nonprofit founder with three decades of leadership experience across diverse industries, blending science with personal transformation. Author of the international bestseller All the Time in the World, which was translated into dozens of languages, and a frequent contributor to Psychology Today, Lisa distills human behavior, science, and systems thinking into complex organizational and behavioral insights. Her books deliver practical, results-driven strategies that empower individuals and organizations to achieve lasting success.  Learn more about Lisa and get the book: https://permanencebook.com/ Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

    Turning Big Dreams into Daily Action: 3 questions to help you do the right thing consistently.

    Big goals fail for simple reasons: they’re fuzzy, they are not supported by consistent practice, and we forget to repeat what already works. We unpack a 3-question toolkit that turns foggy aspirations into clear, repeatable wins without demanding more willpower or a personality transplant. Along the way, we connect practice and fast feedback as the core loop of transformation, share concrete examples across health, writing, and workplace culture, and outline a simple rhythm to test, observe, and adjust each week. You’ll learn how to define outcomes you can see, fix the constraint that truly slows you down, and standardize the conditions that already help you win. No hacks, no heroics—just systems that make the right action the easy action. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s chasing a big goal, and leave a quick review so more curious minds can find us. Got a bright spot to share or a constraint you’re fixing this week? Drop me a note, I’d love to hear it. info@yourbestculture.com Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

    Designing Habits and Cultures That Stick: decrease no-show rate, increase performance, make New Year resolutions last.

    Plans don’t fail because you’re lazy; they fail because life pulls your attention away at the exact moment choices are made. Today we explore a practical, research-backed shift: deliver the right reminder at the right time so the goal you cared about is still vivid at action time. From slashing no-shows at early-morning events to nudging better hiring decisions and strengthening everyday habits, we map out how simple, timely cues can drive behavior change without adding complexity. You’ll learn how to build your own just-in-time nudges: short, identity-linked prompts before the moment of action. We also tackle why resolutions fade and how a daily why makes consistency easier than you think. Whether you lead teams, organize events, or want your personal habits to finally stick, these tools help you turn intention into execution with minimal friction and maximum effect. If this resonates, follow the show, share it with someone who needs a nudge that lasts, and leave a quick review so more people find these practical, science-backed strategies.

    How to sleep well through the toughest moments to show up strong the next day.

    Pressure doesn’t make us superhuman; it exposes our defaults.    Today we unpack why motivation evaporates on the hardest days and show how to build systems that hold when life gets loud. Drawing from executive coaching and leadership development, Angela breaks down 7 practical resilience tools you can train now so they become your automatic response later.   We start with a candid look at why traditional leadership programs often fail. From there, Angela shares a coaching story about a client navigating a rough career transition.   That story sets up the toolkit - the goal isn’t to feel amazing when things get tough, it’s to be proud of how you showed up. If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or high achiever who wants resilience that actually works outside the workshop, this one’s for you.   If the ideas land, share this with a friend who’s in a tough season, hit follow, and leave a quick review. Your support helps more strivers find tools they can trust when it counts.   Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

    Quitting to Win. 1 question to cure overcommitment and 1 principle to stick with your diet.

    What if the fastest path to high performance is learning to quit sooner? We challenge the “never quit” myth and replace it with a sharper rule: winners don’t quit the right things, but they quit the wrong things often and fast.   Through a 24-hour race story, client case studies, and a simple question that filters good effort from wasted grind, we show how to align your time, energy, and identity so progress feels focused instead of frantic.   We dig into the difference between productive discomfort and misaligned struggle, a distinction that shields you from burnout while accelerating results.   You’ll hear how to choose your hard with intent, avoid the competence trap, and recognize sunk-cost thinking before it steals another month. Then we introduce the displacement principle, a practical way to make healthy habits stick by adding more of the right inputs first.   Finally, we walk through a ruthless but freeing calendar audit. The goal is clarity: a schedule that tells the truth about your values and a week that compounds toward the person you want to become. High performance without burnout isn’t about adding more; it’s about putting the right things in first so the wrong things fall away.   If this resonates, subscribe, share with a friend who’s drowning in commitments, and leave a review to help the show reach more people. What’s the first misaligned task you’ll cut today?   Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant

    The High-Achiever's Compass: 3 coaching questions to unlock your next level of fulfillment.

    The grind feels right until it doesn’t. If you’ve been stacking wins yet sensing a misfit between effort and fulfillment, this conversation offers a fresh compass for your next chapter.   We explore how to replace blind push with intentional pause through 3 precise questions that recalibrate your direction, clarify your target, and protect your time for what truly matters.   We start by unpacking why high performers still hire coaches when results look strong from the outside. The truth: the same patterns that powered your early success often cap your next level. You hear how external validation can mask inner drift, why “what got you here won’t get you there” is not a critique but a signal, and how structured reflection creates space for new choices.   From there, we introduce the 3-question framework.   You’ll learn how to eliminate misaligned commitments before adding more, create empty space for mastery to take root, and structure thinking time that’s unrushed and uninterrupted.   Whether you’re aiming for deeper impact, calmer days, or work that feels aligned, these tools help you lay the right bricks on the right path, step by step, without the fog of indecision.   If this resonates, follow the show, share it with a friend who’s navigating change, and leave a quick review to help more high achievers find their compass.   Text Me Your Thoughts and Ideas Support the show Brought to you by Angela Shurina Behavior-First, Executive, Leadership and Optimal Performance Coach 360, Change Leadership & Culture Transformation Consultant
