What do you believe about yourself? with Brooke Dukes

What do you believe about yourself?
Join me for an inspiring conversation with Executive Coach, Brooke Dukes. A life-changing experience drove Brooke to recognize that her actions–putting her energy towards her work as a high level executive–were in direct contradiction to what she told herself she valued. Brooke shares her powerful approach of aligning your values, your behaviors and your plans to silence your mindcluck, add value in any situation, and create win-wins. We talk about the power that comes from being proactively vulnerable (telling someone how you feel, that you are hurt, tell them what you want). Learn how to shift from reacting in challenging situations to remaining calm and centered, and so much more!
What you’ll learn:
- When someone is coming at you with high emotions (anger, sadness, frustration, etc.), don’t answer in the same way—with reactivity. Do your best to answer with curiosity or if you are able to, with love.
- In any situation, take a moment to reflect and align your focus, your self-talk and your physiology to empower yourself.
- Discover/create your own mantra and use it to interrupt your mindcluck and to redirect your mind to an empowering thought.
- Discover/create power moves…one you can do on your own and one you can do in the presence of other people (in other words, a more subtle move that no one is likely to notice). When you do this move, it re-centers you and connects you to your power (and will help calm reactivity you may feel).
- In any situation, use the perspective of “How do I add value?” This will yield win-wins (as opposed to how do I get what I want).
- Use curiosity (ask questions) which will give you additional insight and also give you a little time to pause and re-center yourself if needed.
- And so much more!
