Why Your Feedback May Not Be Getting Results: 5 Antidotes to Bad Feedback

June 3, 2022 By Rachel Lipton Leave a Comment

feedback giver

When you hear the word “feedback” what comes up for you? Do you welcome it or cringe and run for the hills? My guess is most of us are at the latter edge of the spectrum. Why? Because most of us have been the receiver of unhelpful feedback at best or feedback that damaged relationships at worst. If you’re in a position where you give feedback (and really this should happen … [Read more...]

You Don’t Owe Anyone Anything. We Owe Ourselves Everything.

May 4, 2022 By Rachel Lipton Leave a Comment

people pleaser

You may feel a bit ruffled by the title of this post. But wait?! Isn’t that selfish and egotistical? Before your thoughts go there, think about this: how often have you said yes when you really wanted to say no? How many times have you sacrificed something you wanted, or didn’t know what you wanted, because you were so focused on pleasing someone else? How much does getting … [Read more...]

3 Ways to Cultivate Presence

April 6, 2022 By Rachel Lipton Leave a Comment

presence breathing

If I were to sum up my conversations with clients over the last year or so, one of the most common things that comes up is that people are moving away from “doing” and toward “being.” After being on the career treadmill (or, ahem, mountain) for many years and two years of a pandemic (among other life challenges), people are realizing that there is another way to live life. … [Read more...]

It’s almost March. For many of us, that means we’ve braved through the red hearts, rom-coms, dinner out, and all the rest that comes with the month of Valentine’s Day. Whether we are in a relationship or not, our most important relationship is with ourselves. Nothing teaches us that more than being your own boss. As a “ShEO” (that’s female CEO if you haven’t been in the … [Read more...]

In my freshman year of college, I nabbed the starring role in the two-person play, The Owl and the Pussycat. Opening night, in front of my parents, my friends, students, and professors, I walked onto the stage of the world-famous Annenberg Center… and promptly forgot my lines. All of them. This ginormous blunder left me with a fear of speaking in front of people without … [Read more...]

self doubt

Self-doubts? What are they? Where do they come from? What makes them so tricky to overcome? And what might be a way to keep moving towards your goals? How can we overcome them? Is that even possible? That is a lot of questions to start with. So, where do I begin? I believe we all have self-doubts — some more, some less, depending on the situation and the task. There is … [Read more...]

Coaching – From the Other Side of the Desk – And Why We All Need It

January 24, 2022 By Community Member Leave a Comment

business coaching

When I started my own executive coaching and leadership development business a number of years ago, I only considered what I was good at – coaching and developing others. My thinking didn’t go much further, and in my line of work, I’m embarrassed to admit that. It took the COVID pandemic to make me stop and take the time to think about my own development, and I mean really … [Read more...]

confident business women

I recently experienced an annual ritual that has been repeated for decades and dreaded by many mothers. I dropped my daughter off at college. After spending her whole life, thus far, in California, she is chasing her dreams at New York University. She took the junior college route first and was able to gain so much confidence in her abilities. Of course, I was and still am … [Read more...]

4 Steps to Setting Goals for a Life You Love

January 17, 2022 By Community Member Leave a Comment

writing goals

I’ve always been a huge goal setter and overachieving person - priding myself on being able to achieve more than work colleagues and peers. I’d set my goals and then hold myself accountable to a huge workload, thinking that it was the right thing to do to forward my career and then later my business.
