The Power to Choose: 4 Ways to Control Your Own Destiny

The Power to Choose: 4 Ways to Control Your Own Destiny

Posted by Connie Podesta

Never—EVER—give up the power to control your own destiny. Not to anyone in your past, present, or future. Here’s the coolest thing about life: YOU get to choose who and what you let into it. How amazing is that? And here’s the kicker—you can be as picky as you want. In fact, you should be. Why? Because every person you allow into your circle, every situation you engage in, and every decision you make shapes your life—not just today but for the long haul. These choices influence your habits, your mindset, your self-esteem, and even your confidence. So, let’s talk about three powerful ways Read More

Parenting… Like You’ve Never Heard it Before!

Parenting… Like You’ve Never Heard it Before!

Posted by Connie Podesta

by Hall of Fame Keynote Speaker and Human Behavior Expert Connie Podesta As a former therapist and educator - one thing I've been asked A LOT about throughout my career is KIDS. Of all shapes, sizes, and ages. How to raise them well? How to manage teenagers? How to teach them to be respectful and kind? How to handle teach them to be independent OF you -- rather than dependent ON you. There's a lot to take in, and parenting, by far, is one of the most important jobs most of us will ever take on. That's why I created a video series and playlist just for parents with ten powerful (and Read More

What I Discovered in the Nothingness…

What I Discovered in the Nothingness…

Posted by Connie Podesta

And How it’s Changed Everything By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta This vacation was my best ever. I did nothing. We didn't sightsee. I didn't learn anything new. I didn't read anything non-fiction. I literally -- did nothing productive! I read a romance novel. Drank mint and cucumber water. Watched Netflix. Had a crunchy salad. Walked along the ocean. Meditated. Had a watermelon salad. Snuggled. Snacked. Watched the sunset. Had a great white wine. Walked some more. Ate wonderful seafood. Slept. And slept some more. Floated in the ocean. Had a fresh fruit smoothie. Got a Read More

Finding Your Balance.

Finding Your Balance.

Posted by Connie Podesta

It's Not About Equal Time  by Keynote Speaker and Human Relationship Expert Connie Podesta As a motivational keynote speaker in today's sometimes chaotic world, I'm often asked by clients to deliver a message on BALANCE and I'm happy to share.  The truth is balance will never, EVER be about equal time.  It's just not.  For anyone who works, enjoys a career, has outside interests, volunteers, is a parent, is a spouse or partner, has aging parents -- you name it - you can't equal out the time. “Balancing Home and Career” gives the illusion that there’s a magical way to equalize these two Read More

Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta - Procrastination

HAPPINESS Doesn’t PROCRASTINATE

HAPPINESS Doesn’t PROCRASTINATE

Posted by Connie Podesta

Keeping Pace with Joy, Balance, and Success By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Procrastination is the silent killer of ambition, productivity, achievement, even peace and balance. And most importantly, it undermines your own HAPPINESS. Trust me, putting things off causes more stress, worry, and insecurity about the future than just taking a deep breath and taking the first step. Where to start?  ANYWHERE.  When I find myself trying to avoid something, I look for the easiest place to start. The cheapest. The least frightening. The most accessible. The most comfortable. The Read More

How to Get People On Board Podcast

An Interview with Rory Vaden I had a lot to share in a recent interview with Rory Vaden, a leader from the Daily Discipline Blog.
