But as we embarked on this journey, we realized that it’s not about building a career, it’s about building habits. We are convinced that the right habits will lead to an exceptional career. We want to share our daily morning musings to give you the tools and clarity to live your beautiful adventure.

Habit #6: Have a Positive Disposition at Work and In Life

2021/03/06

Winston Churchill said it best: "The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." Optimism is the ability to reframe and see the opportunity in a situation. In this episode, hosts Marie and Niki discuss why it is important to have a positive attitude in work and in life, and how you can go about developing one.

Habit #5: Pushback, Productively

2021/02/21

Psychological safety describes a concept around a workplace where people can speak up and take risks with their team without feeling embarrassed or insecure. But most of us can't really do much to create that system unless one is a CEO or company leader. So we decided to talk about how one can control one's attitude and the ways that one can rise above effectively in certain situations. Attitude can be one's armor.

Habit #4: Manage Upward

2021/02/21

Upward management is essential for one's happiness and productivity in the workplace. It isn't about manipulating your boss, it's about working effectively with your boss and with leadership to make your work life as productive and smooth as it can be. Hosts Niki and Marie talk about how to tactically employ upward management at your workplace.

Habit #3: Accept Compliments

2021/02/16

A friend told us, "when someone gives, they want the love to fill the other person, they don't want the love to bounce back." Has receiving a gift or compliment ever provoked anxiety or a feeling of needing to deflect or give something back? In this episode, hosts Marie and Niki discuss the science behind receiving and why an adverse reaction is actually linked to insecurity. They also look at the psychology of giving and how studies show the joy of giving lasts more than the joy of getting.

Habit #2: When You See Something Good, Voice It

2021/02/14

“Good relationships keep us happier and healthier. Period.” The quality of our life — emotionally, physically, and mentally — is directly proportional to the quality of our relationships. In order to find fulfillment in relationships, we must connect genuinely, and the most genuine way of connecting is through positive alacrity. In this episode, hosts Marie and Niki talk about the importance of relationships and how you can apply positive alacrity to your life.

Habit #1: Give Others The Benefit Of The Doubt

2021/02/13

We all struggle with being immersed in eco-chambers, lacking trust in ourselves and others and having an inability to see perspectives other than our own. Hosts Marie and Niki walk through their own experiences and struggles around those topics, and their realization that life is just better if we give each other the benefit of the doubt.
