What Leni Rivera can say in an interview about
Remote Work in the Future:

    • Remote work is not only here to stay, it is also changing the way we perceive a workplace experience. Everything about a “traditional” workplace – from being office-centric to how we onboard new hires, and from the ways we communicate with our teams to how we envision a culture – is evolving.
    • This means everything we once knew about a Workplace Experience, is no longer what it used to be. And the key to keeping up with this evolution is to lean into it.

Secrets for Top Performers to Thrive Without Overwhelm

Available for Interviews:  Dr. Karen Doll

Karen Doll, PsyD, is a licensed psychologist, professional coach, and the author of the forthcoming book, Building Psychological Fitness: How High Performers Achieve With Ease.

What Dr. Doll can say in an interview on
Secrets for Top Performers:

    • Avoid comparative anxiety: if you compare, you will despair.
    • Watch out for phantom expectations about what is “good enough.”

Ex: Good moms make homemade meals for their kids. 

Ex: Successful people are supposed to be promoted every two years. 

Ex: My inbox should be at zero.

Ex: I should be able to focus more.

    • According to who? According to what? There is no universal “good enough” scale. For perfectionists, the goal post just keeps moving. You won’t arrive.
    • Re-frame your “shoulds.” Shoulds are heavy with judgment and self-persecution. Reframe I should work out today vs. It would feel great if I went to the gym.
