Distracted = Unhappy

“Nearly all of us buy into… the myths of happiness”

Happiness Researcher

Dr. Sonja Lyubomirsky

“The Myths of Happiness”


This Brain Date is for Busy LEADERS that want to..

  • help others

  • feel creative

  • acknowledge your accomplishments

  • keep growing

  • receive guidance on next steps

  • have a safe community to explore

  • feel support when they feel scared

  • feel impactful

  • feel valued

The problem…..


We don't learn to work WITH our brain for joy and purpose. 

Instead we feel: 

Overwhelmed, confused

No time for family or friends

No confidence to focus on what matters to you

No clear priorities

Floundering

I never learned...

  • Work helps us feel important and useful

  • Work can have positive or negative brain consequences.

  • We need to give the brain more support in order to learn

  • We have to focus to find JOY

  • I drive my own professional growth

Once you adapt what I am going to teach you,

you will feel less….

stuck

confused

disorganized

frustrated


Here’s what the result will be…

Leaders are;

Empowered

Creative

Informed

Enthusiastic

Brave

Courageous

Valued

We ought to be able to build a beautiful life and have meaningful work….

It is intimidating and embarrassing to have to set up a complicated focus plan to avoid joy stealing  distractions
