18. Why Now Is the Time to Revisit Your Beliefs

As good as it is, Get Out of My Dreams, Get Into My Car is unlikely a song Billy Ocean would release today. Things change…The environment, our thoughts & our thought patterns or beliefs…They all change. So it’s important to revisit them for a few reasons I share in this episode.
Revisit the beliefs that determine your actions & results, & start now. Now is when the rest of your life starts…Not next month or next year. So why wait until that perfect day that doesn’t actually exist? Today is as perfect as it gets. 😉
Have you struggled to meet your new year’s resolutions, & have you potentially beaten yourself up as a result? Get out of your own way, & consider the thoughts that act as barriers between you & your goals instead.
Most of your beliefs aren’t even your own. Which ones do you truly own & why?
You’re constantly evolving, & the world is, too. How can you operate based on your true beliefs & prioritize based on your values? How can you do so in today’s environment?
Revisit your beliefs now, & join my next PQ Program, a habit-building mental fitness program to enable wellness, performance, & positive relationships! See details & register here.
The book I mentioned, When: The Scientific Secrets of Perfect Timing by Daniel H. Pink, can be found here or really anywhere.

17. What Does Freedom Mean to You? Picture This...

I share my definition of freedom & even share an image for you that I promise you won’t forget…even if you want to.
What’s your version of freedom? How would you answer the question, “What do I truly want?”
What might be draining you? Consider your feelings & what might be incongruent with who you are & what you truly want. Consider some of the limiting beliefs you’ve inherited that aren’t even your own. Consider what releasing some of those limiting beliefs would feel like & what freedom could look like instead.
Take a step toward freedom by joining me in my next PQ Program, a habit-building mental fitness program to enable wellness, performance, & positive relationships! See details & register at The DASH Mindset website.

15. Consider the Experiences You Want

What do you truly want your holiday/end of year experiences to be? If they're not what you want, how can you potentially change them next year? What if you have assumptions that aren't actually true? What if you can actually change the things you think you can't? What if your experiences can be what you want them to be?

14. Overcoming Fear & Being Visible with Susan M. Barber

Do you work hard, hoping your hard work will be noticed & recognized? Are you ever frustrated when it’s not? Do you feel uncomfortable talking about yourself? Are you concerned sharing your accomplishments will seem arrogant?
I’ve been there, & my friend & this week’s guest, Susan M. Barber, has been there, too.
As a former Fortune 500 IT Director turned Executive Coach, Author & Podcast Host, Sue experienced her own challenges throughout her 25+ years in the corporate environment at Kraft Heinz. Now, Sue helps business leaders play bigger, increase their visibility & shine a light on their leadership strengths so they can elevate their position in the workplace.
As a leader who was somewhat invisible for a long time, she took a journey to learn how to be visible in her own authentic way. Her mission is to share what she learned with others & leverage her platform to create a visibility movement for leaders to show their value & be seen for their true talent.
In this episode, Sue & I discuss:
What led her to starting her own business, writing a book & becoming a published author
Vulnerability...the necessity of it & the challenges associated with it
Imperfect action
Identity shifts & her own shift away from a company where family members had worked for years
Shifting from auto pilot to dreaming & considering possibilities
The fear of doing anything for the first time & trusting you’ll figure it out, even when you initially don’t know “how”
Her own invisibility in the first draft of her book, The Visibility Factor
Listening to the stories that hold us back
The RISE framework illustrated in her book, including self-reflection, even when it’s uncomfortable
Some tactical tips for becoming more visible that don’t require additional time
What holds us back from being visible
Why performance should be only 10% of your focus when it comes to career success, & what the remaining 90% of your focus should be (as Harvey J. Coleman shares in Empowering Yourself: The Organizational Game Revealed)
Being respected vs liked
The necessity of asking for help
Find videos & resources on Sue’s website, & follow her on LinkedIn. Buy her book, The Visibility Factor, wherever books are sold, & listen to The Visibility Factor Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts.

13. Focusing on the Gap vs the Gain...Deficiency vs Development

Do you have a tendency to focus on what you have yet to achieve? Do you have a tendency to move the finish line once you’ve accomplished a particular goal? Rather than focusing on & celebrating the progress you have made? Me, too.
So in today’s episode I share a portion of 10X is Easier Than 2X, a book written by Dan Sullivan, Founder of Strategic Coach & Dr. Benjamin Hardy, that clearly articulates how you can actually achieve more by doing less.
In this particular portion, the authors share the challenges that result from being “in the gap” & measuring yourself or your situation against an ideal. Plus they share the benefits of being “in the gain” & measuring yourself against yourself & where you were before instead.
If you’re interested in making the rest of your life better, listen in! Reach out to me, & let’s chat about how I can help.

9. Journey from Air Force Academy to Farming with Col Kevin Krause

At a crossroads? Wondering what’s next? Wondering how your past relates to what you could do?
In this episode, my brother, Col Kevin Krause, shares his journey from the Air Force Academy to sustainable farming in “retirement”. He’s still serving, just in a different way.
Kevin grew up in rural Iowa, where our grandparents & parents farmed. He recalls many hours performing farm chores, as well as witnessing the small family farms of the day give way to the larger mono-cultured-corn-centered farming of today. Kevin left Iowa in 1985 to attend the United States Air Force Academy & retired from the Air Force in 2015 after 26 years of military service.
During a military assignment near Washington, DC, Kevin & his wife, Mikki, became educated about how far America’s food system had fallen from their ideals. They read books, watched documentaries, attended seminars & visited Polyface & other farms to learn all they could about different production models to implement on a future farm.
In 2015, they set about making their dreams of sustainable farming a reality in Hampshire, Tennessee.
In this episode, Kevin & I discuss:
When & how he became passionate about sustainable agriculture
Their transition from the “rat race” lifestyle & keeping up with the Joneses (although he never really tried)
His disinterest in keeping up with the Joneses or anyone else
His slow, fast-paced lifestyle
His “what you should be when you grow up” assessment in junior-high
The biggest threats to the US…other “bad guys” vs our own health & nutrition
His perspective on opinions vs data
Their homesteader community
The mystery of Mother Nature & the reward of being a student & serving the nation in a different way
The dramatic & appropriate difference in our paths, even though we’re related
Find Kevin & his wife, Mikki, & learn more at their Liberty Trace Farm website, on Facebook & on Instagram.
