Are You Dealing With Change or Does Change Have to Deal with YOU?
A Little Truth About Change By Keynote Speaker and Human Behavior Expert Connie Podesta Bottom line: The companies I interview say that without a doubt that one of the top traits they are looking for when deciding who to hire, who to fire, and who to promote is a person’s ability to quickly and effectively adapt and adapt to CHANGE without resisting, complaining and becoming overwhelmed. Does that describe your go-to reaction when faced with significant change? I hope so. Change? It’s going to happen, whether you’re ready or not. Like it or not. Want it or not.

HAPPINESS Doesn’t PROCRASTINATE
HAPPINESS Doesn’t PROCRASTINATE
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.

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

HEALTH is the Heart of HAPPINESS
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.

Two things must happen if you truly want some balance in your life. One, you must truly 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
