Take the Wheel!

Take the Wheel!

Posted by Connie Podesta

Taking Charge of a Memorable Life By Hall-of-Fame Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Coincidence. Luck. Karma. Fate. Chance.  Words tossed around A LOT lately, right?  Sometimes as excuses for bad choices, right?  Sometimes heard from those who believe that life is just lobbing lemons at them and there’s no recipe for lemonade.  And sometimes, the foundation for lives lived unfulfilled and unhappy because people resign themselves to the fact that ‘that’s just the way life is.” No.  The truth is you can feel POWERLESS, and take on the ‘life’s unfair’ attitude, or you can feel Read More

HEALTH is the Heart of HAPPINESS

HEALTH is the Heart of HAPPINESS

Posted by Connie Podesta

Redefining the Good Things in Life By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Every piece of research shows that HAPPINESS can absolutely have a positive effect on your health in zillions of ways. Every organ in your body thrives on HAPPINESS. It allows you to be calmer, sleep better, eat healthier, exercise more, and make better choices all around when it comes to YOUR life. UNHAPPINESS does the exact opposite. It attracts illness; lowers your immune system so you can’t resist disease; stockpiles nature’s all-natural, good-feeling chemicals, such as endorphins, instead of Read More

Do I keep negative people in my life? Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta

Negative People in Your Life?

Negative People in Your Life?

Posted by Connie Podesta

Remember the Three C's By Motivational Keynote Speaker and Expert in Human Behavior Connie Podesta On social media this past couple of weeks, we’ve been talking a lot lately about taking CONTROL of your life in terms of health, happiness, and ridding yourself of toxic thoughts, habits, and sometimes even PEOPLE. That created a slew of variations of one big question:  “Do I leave someone just because THEY are negative?” Good question!  First step?  We’re talking about the people you can CHOOSE to walk away from.  Unhealthy relationships lack respect.  Joy. Mutual trust.  Toxic Read More

COMMUNICATION:  More Important Than EVER in Our Frantic 24/7 World By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Communication used to be my #1 topic.  But not anymore. Now, people are lulled by the flashy, new, quirky “it” topics-- Innovation.  Collaboration.  Integration.  Synergy. And the list goes on.  These topics definitely sounds trendier than just the simple old-school communication topic.  But let’s be honest.  The flashiest topics in the world still depend on one thing—YOUR ABILITY TO COMMUNICATE your ideas, thoughts, feelings, and concerns in a way that allows people to Read More

Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta - Life and Work Balance

Balance: It’s NEVER About Time

Balance: It’s NEVER About Time

Posted by Connie Podesta

Changing Your Perspective on What it REALLY Means to Find Balance By Motivational Keynote Speaker and Change Expert Connie Podesta BALANCE?  It seems like everyone’s talking about it right now, but more often than not, people are struggling to make it all feel like it’s evened out. The truth is?  It’s never going to be EVEN.  We live in busy times and lead busy lives and work takes up an incredible amount of our waking hours.  And while that is a reality – it doesn’t HAVE to be a negative. When writing the book on balance for my 10 Ways to Stand Out From the Crowd, it’s a topic we Read More

How to Survive a Crisis

How to Survive a Crisis

Fighting for Happiness in the Midst of Tragedy By Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta Whoa! Life is moving along just fine, thank you very much—when out of the blue, it hits us—a crisis! For me it was a recent house fire which destroyed 90% of everything material that I owned, loved and cared for. A crisis is something so far from what we wanted or expected that it totally knocks the breath out of us. “It’s like a dream,” we say. “I’m going to wake up and discover this never ever happened at all.” But unfortunately we don’t wake up. There it is, a looming force to be reckoned Read More

How to Create More Time to Focus on What Really Matters While Ditching the Guilt! With Motivational Keynote Speaker Connie Podesta In a world that’s spinning at about 1,000 miles an hour (and 1,000 things at once) for most women, that whole elusive concept of ‘Life Balance’ seems like quite the slippery slope! So we wanted to tap into the humor, how-to’s and success strategies from one of the world’s top motivational keynote speakers, award winning authors, and an expert in the psychology of human behavior as it relates to relationships, change, communication, and life balance. – Connie Read More

Passive Aggressive Personality Issues?

Passive Aggressive Personality Issues?

Posted by Connie Podesta

Top Tips for Dealing with THESE Difficult People By Connie Podesta In any situation where you suspect passive-aggressive behavior, you must begin by first taking a close look at yourself and your dominant communication style.  This is NOT to excuse them in any way, because their behavior is definitely unhealthy, non-productive, and usually hurtful.  But we need to take an honest look at our own behavior to determine if we are possibly contributing to an environment that allows passive-behavior to grow and thrive.  Passive-aggressives are reacting to us and to what they believe we are Read More

The Passive Personality: The Path of Least Resistance

The Passive Personality: The Path of Least Resistance

Posted by Connie Podesta

More From the Life Would Be Easy Series... By Connie Podesta Passives take the path of least resistance by tuning out, ignoring, avoiding or backing away and withdrawing from people and situations rather than dealing with them head-on. I know they say the “meek shall inherit the earth” but it sure don’t make it any easier for the rest of us (or themselves for that matter) whether it’s in the workplace, at home, at a family gathering or dealing with customers. So let’s explore what’s going on inside this always intimidated, afraid-to-get-their-needs-met and often frustrating personality. Read More

If It Weren't For AGGRESSIVE People By Motivational Speaker Connie Podesta Imagine yourself in a face-to-face confrontation with a football player, or a soldier, or even a bank robber. These are overbearing, powerful, and intimidating personalities when they are playing their respective roles. Aggressive is a good word to summarize the impact of such people. The Aggressive Personality – Manipulation Through Hurt and Anger One does not have to be physically intimidating to be considered aggressive. In the context of relationships, aggression may be expanded to include any Read More
