👂 💡 💖 This week, let’s Listen!!! Let’s first define what it means to listen, to really listen to someone. It means that we are giving our attention (full) with the ear; attend closely for the purpose of hearing. It may seem so simple, yet how many of us as busy CEO’s, business owners, leaders and humans stop everything we are doing to pay close attention and really listen to a member of our team, another employee, someone who has come to us to answer a question, for counsel, advice, to be there for us when we need them? Secondly, how many times does and issue arise at home and at work and we jump to conclusions and make assumptions as to how and where things went wrong? Do we stop then and really listen? There is so much noise all of the time, often noise we create ourselves through digital distractions, over scheduling, multi tasking. Do you think this week, just this week, we could try stopping and really listening for the root cause of an issue, the thing that is really bothering our team, our employees, our family members and friends and maybe even reach out to someone who you have had a misunderstanding with lately and schedule a time to talk. I mean, for them to talk and for you to listen. Who is going to give this a try this week? Need help listening, really listening? I’d love to help you with this and many other leadership challenges that you face!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

😊 ❤️ ✨ Be You!!! Every single one of us is made up of a combination of so many wonderful beliefs, values, gifts, skills, talents, ideas, ways of working (and so on and so on and so on) and we must celebrate our authentic selves by letting our light shine! What I mean by this, is we cannot be afraid to be ourselves and we cannot be afraid to let others be themselves. Being ourselves does not mean treating others poorly, this in fact will never lead to a good outcome. If you do, genuinely apologize and don’t repeat the behavior. Additionally, it is not in our agreement that we are strong, it is in our understanding, support, respect and empowerment of each other that we are the strongest! As leaders, we have a fundamental responsibility and that is to take care of everyone that we lead, everyone. In fact, we not only want to take care of everyone in our company and on our team, we actually want to bring out the very best in them, then we must allow ourselves and our team to shine and that means to be who they are. When we create this psychological safe environment and model being our authentic selves with all of our likes, quirks, varying ideas, we create something really special and that is the most wonderful culture and culture will create the most incredible business and success. It’s a fact and I’d love to show you how. So, shine bright and be YOU!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpracticioner @Clarity13.com

😃❤️✨Be Authentic!!! There are so many reasons why being true to who YOU are is one of the very best ways to lead! Let’s think about it for a minute, YOU either created your business or you earned your role through doing many things really well. YOU hired your team directly, or you approved of them joining and YOU also got YOUR business this far, so why would you want to show everyone anything other than the person they chose to be their mentor, leader, founder, CEO? Now, let me be clear, why would a coach tell you to be authentically yourself when a coach is supposed to help make us better? For this reason, when you are authentically yourself and work on all the things that show up that are things like limiting beliefs, doubts, fear, anger, conflict, then the real you, the vibrant anabolic amazing energy YOU shines through and allows everyone else to be authentically themselves too!!! When we are all encouraged to be our best selves and work on limiting our catabolic energy, everything and anything is possible at work and in your soaring business!!! Let me show you who YOU really are, and we will work on limiting and removing the things that hold you and your business back! #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach; #businesscoach; #energyleadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

❤️ This week has been A Process and we all need time, space and care To Process!!! Being a leader in times of great change is when we are tested the most. Let’s make sure that we do just that, allow ourselves and our teams what they need. A real leader knows it is not about winning or losing (catabolic, draining energy that has real short and long term negative impacts on our health), it is about taking care of Our Team. So, let’s take the time we need to make sure that we always lead with Love, Honesty, Truth and Respect!!! If you are a CEO and business owner who needs help doing this, it would be my pleasure to help you! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

🤔💭🙇‍♀️👩‍🎨♻️💡We all need to take time To Process!!! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders, we know how important it is to take the time to process, to allow space, to evaluate and to reflect before, during and after projects, events, new business, new process, a major change, our list goes on an on. It’s simply invaluable to our business that we do so. For this reason, let’s make sure we provide the same opportunities for our teams. Work and life moves so very fast these days and it is easy to get caught up in the go fast mentality. There are times that speed is important and there are times, particularly when first learning something or major change, when our employees, our team will need proper time to absorb, reflect, and when they feel reconciled and even better, empowered, they will soar. Wednesday will be a day where many will need time to process, so let’s provide the space and the time for everyone to do so. What do you do to process? How do you provide your team with time to process? hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

👻🎃🦇💀❤️Taking a moment to simply wish everyone a Happy Halloween!!! Remember, we all need to take the time to enjoy the simple, silly things in life (like I did posing for these shots)-enjoy the day and as Snoopy says, Please Be Kind!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

❤️ 💪 🌼 Show Up and Support to Empower others! On Sunday, we came together as a family, community, friends, and caregivers to unite and support those affected by Alzheimer’s. When we stand together in a meaningful way, anything is possible. Let’s continue to show up for our loved ones, giving strength, support, and hope through meaningful actions. Empowerment and support are best shown through taking action. Let’s keep supporting others and the causes that matter most to us through our actions. hashtag#Empowerment hashtag#Support hashtag#alzheimersawareness

👏 💪 👍 ❤️ This week, we continue to have some fun and empower our team by showing up, supporting them behind the scenes and stepping aside for them to shine! As CEOs and business owners, it’s crucial to support our associates in the background, allowing them to take the lead and be center stage. Exceptional leadership is about being there for your team, not taking credit or the spotlight. Remember, showing up empowers your team and demonstrates your unwavering support. Take the time to be there, to applaud and step aside! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

💪🙏❤️🚀This week, let’s Empower our Team!!! I promised that we would have some fun this week! As we approach Halloween, let’s do just that, as we uncover how by empowering our team, we literally are giving them the Power to make a difference in themselves, in their work, on our team and for our company! What does empowering someone look like? It looks like training, coaching, communicating, demonstrating, letting them try, supporting, standing by them as they make both good decisions and mistakes. What does it feel like for them? It feels like trust, care, support, courage, and love. What are the outcomes? The results are: progress, confidence, willingness, joy, positive momentum, learning, growth and success! As CEO’s, business owners and leaders, let’s fuel all of our associates this week (and always) by literally empowering them!!! Please let me know what happens! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

❤️ Gratitude changes everything - take the time to let them know... This week, I had to pivot from my original plan to delve into a light and fun topic. Life threw a curveball, prompting me to prioritize family above all else. In times of loss, reflecting on gratitude has been my anchor. I urge you this week to express your gratitude to those who matter most - family, employees, or even a stranger. It costs nothing to acknowledge the positive impact someone has had on your life. By sharing your appreciation, you not only brighten their day but also lift them up in ways you may not realize. Take a moment to let them know... hashtag#Gratitude; hashtag#Takethetimetoletthemknow hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

🙏❤️This week we will keep things simple and yet, extraordinary. Extraordinary because we will focus on something simple. Simple in life, simple at work and that is Gratitude. Be grateful for all that you are, all that you have and always show gratitude to everyone who has positively influenced you, your life, your business. Life is short and never underestimate how precious it is. Take the time, make the call, write the note and say thank you. hashtag#Gratitude; hashtag#kindnessmatteralways; hashtag#saythankyou hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

🚀🚀🚀 The Big Picture Creating and sharing The Big Picture in life and business is crucial for lasting success. It involves building things that endure beyond current challenges. Leading with values that remain constant ensures stability and growth. Let’s focus on what truly matters to drive long-lasting value and keep everyone, including us, CEOs and business owners, inspired and forward-looking! If you haven’t created core values for your business, how are you communicating what matters to your team and associates? Every new engagement with my clients begins with creating values to create long standing value to everyone involved!!! hashtag#Leadership hashtag#Success hashtag#Values hashtag#BusinessGrowth; hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#culturetransformer; hashtag#resultsdriver; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

❤️🎆🌠🚀The Big Picture is all about Focusing on What Matters, so let’s continue to do just that! This is a picture of my daughter and I, it’s one of my favorites! I chose this to share because I hope it helps make a critical point as we continue this week to focus on the “Big Picture” and we “Focus on What Matters.” My daughter and my children matter, my family matters and what I do and how I lead and how I parent, matters. In our workplaces, just like in our family, our people matter. We need to take care of them really well, as we would our family. They chose our company, us as leaders and it is our job to treat them well. When we treat them well, they feel good, they feel safe, they can fulfill their potential, just like our children. Our teams and our associates also have families who they go home to and share how they are being treated, engaged and empowered to be their very best. Let’s never underestimate the shadow our leadership casts. Help your team, your associates by focusing on what matters to them! If you don’t know, just ask them ❤️!!! If your associate’s engagement and your companies results are far from where you’d like them, let me help you Focus on What Matters!!! #Executivecoach; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoach; #culturebuilder; #resultsdriver; #womenofstamford; #havyn

✈️ 📹 💡 ✨ The Big Picture!!! I just recently had the opportunity to fly in a sea plane overlooking Moosehead Lake in Maine. This experience was at first frightening (when I first got into the backseat of this enclosed space and put my headset on, I had an immediate panic attack :(), yet after my initial scare, my mind and body relaxed and off we went up in the air in search of a moose sighting (my fiance’s bucket list item). The view from the sky overlooking this stunning area of Maine was simply breathtaking and I found myself in pure delight soaking it all in for the next 30 minutes. Seeing these pictures after, I am reminded of how important it is for us CEO’s, business owners and leaders to remember and reflect on “The Big Picture.” It is easy to get caught up in the issues, in the problems and in what is not working. However, if we would take some time to remind ourselves as to why we created our companies, built our teams, we somehow get back on track. Let’s focus on the Big Picture this week in our workplaces, for our teams and in our lives! If your company or business is far from bringing this picture to life, let me help you!!! hashtag#Executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#culturebuilder; hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

This week, I am thrilled to discuss the power of Positivity! As leaders, our ability to embrace positivity in all situations is crucial for fostering a positive workplace. It’s essential to find the bright side in every scenario and individual. We all have the capacity to do so; we just need to cultivate this skill. Reflecting on a personal experience, I used to feel disappointed when plans were canceled in my early 30s. Shifting from excitement to dismay drained my energy. I realized the importance of transitioning from Plan “A” to Plan “B” swiftly. Surprisingly, Plan “B” often surpassed the original plan, leading to powerful outcomes. Embracing this strategy has been transformative in both my professional and personal life. Choosing positivity and adapting to Plan “B” has proven to be incredibly rewarding! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#leadershipcoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpracticioner hashtag#peoplefirstculture; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

😃 ✨ 🌼 🎇 This week, it’s all about being Positive!!! As CEO’s, business owners, leaders and humans, we get to choose how we react to anything! Yes, we actually have that choice available to us at every moment. There are so many options at our finger tips, with two predominant ones-we can chose a positive way of thinking about a situation, person, etc., or we can chose (or let our default patterns chose for us), a negative way of thinking. They both feel and illicit two very different responses in ourselves and in others (our bodies and our mind). When we decide to think and react with positive, anabolic energy, we put ourselves and others in a solution driven state and when we chose to think and react negatively, we do the exact opposite, we limit our our collective choices in finding the very best solution to any problem and cease productivity. Although not always easy, or your go to energy, yet this week, let’s try to only think positively! Curious as to what your patterns of thinking are and the environment you create for your team and company? I can show you and help you move toward choosing Positivity always!!! You and your team deserve it!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#Peoplefirstcutlure; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

🔊 ☑ 🔌 🚀 Why is consistency crucial in leadership and how does it inspire your team to excel? Many leaders today lean towards buzzwords like “strategic mindset” and “disruption” to motivate their teams. While these concepts sound impressive, true leadership excellence lies in consistency. In the realm of day-to-day leadership, creating a stable and predictable environment is key to unlocking your team’s full potential. Just like parenting, imagine how children thrive in a consistent and nurturing home environment. Similarly, your team will perform at their best when they can rely on your steady leadership, unwavering values, and a safe workspace. As a CEO, business owner, or team leader, fostering a consistent, welcoming, and safe workplace is essential for maximizing your team’s brilliance, creativity, drive, and productivity. When you empower your team in a stable environment, their potential knows no bounds! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpracticioner hashtag#culturebuilder hashtag#HRExec; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN

➡ ➕ ♥ 🚀 💡 This week, it’s all about Consistency!!! We cannot fuel creativity for our teams and in our workplace if we do not create consistency as leaders!!! CEO’s, business owners and leaders, your team needs you to be consistent, they need to know what to expect, so they can be at ease. When they are at ease, not preoccupied by your constant change in direction, expectations and values, they will transform your workplace through their passion, innovation, creativity and results. My expertise is helping you create consistency in your leadership and in your workplace. You and your team need this and will thrive with this!!! #executivecoach; #businesscoach, #leadershipcoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #Culturebuilder; #havyncoworking; #womenofstamford @Clarity13.com

♥ 💡 🚀 Happy Friday!!! Let’s end this week by discussing Genuinely Caring about your team with a bang! When we genuinely care about our team, the ripple effect of these good feelings changes workplaces and families for the better. Science backs this up! By choosing thoughts, feelings, and actions that empower our teams, we spread anabolic energy that fuels creativity and productivity. This positive energy is the key to success. I recently shared these transformative insights with an amazing group at hashtag#HAVYN during the Women’s Entrepreneurial Luncheon. I’m excited to extend this knowledge to CEOs, business owners, and leaders who are eager to learn more! hashtag#ExecutiveCoach hashtag#EnergyLeadershipMasterPractitioner hashtag#BusinessCoach hashtag#LeadershipCoach hashtag#HAVYN

❤️💡🚀Creating exceptional and successful businesses always starts at the very top! It begins with the CEO’s vision and values. This week, we’ve discovered that obstacles in business and life can be overcome by fostering workplaces centered around genuine care for employees and customers. As a leader, demonstrating genuine care means engaging, encouraging, and empowering your teams and leaders. By showing belief, trust, and confidence in your team, you enable them to excel and innovate to drive business success. Micromanagement has no place in companies striving for greatness. Let’s explore how effective leadership truly operates! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#leadershipcoach hashtag#businesscoach; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

As we head into 4th quarter, I’ve spent some extra time talking with my clients about what they are thinking (or in some cases worrying) about as it relates to ending their year strong, achieving what they intended to this year. In no particular order, these are some of the things they are worried about: retaining their team, hiring quality new team members, effectively handling some tough customer situations, making up for a deficit in some business metrics, rectifying a difficult situation that they or a team member was responsible for, growing their business, handling personal issues that are important and pulling at their time and energy. Every single one of these issues are real and as I reflected on them, I came up with one solution that if followed in life and in business can solve everything. The solution is: Genuinely Care about everyone in your life and at work. Now, why would this solve everything? You tell me! I want to hear what you have to say! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; womenofstamford; #havyncoworking @Clarity13.com

I’m dedicating this final post of the week on Growth to my son. Sharing a powerful quote that has inspired him through the toughest times. “Growth over Comfort,” Growth is uncomfortable sometimes. Sometimes it feels impossible. Life throws surprises, but with love, care, and guidance, you can overcome anything. You just have to take the first step. “Growth over Comfort” has been his inspiration for many years, he had it tattooed on his arm (why I am using this windy picture from Florida so you can see it), I framed an art piece with the saying for his bedroom and am sharing that we can all grow as humans, as leaders for ourselves, our families and workplaces. Growth isn’t comfortable, yet boy is it worth it! Let me help you grow-let’s do the uncomfortable together!!! hashtag#GrowthOverComfort hashtag#ExecutiveCoach hashtag#LeadershipCoach hashtag#BusinessCoach; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

We cannot force anyone to change, so as we witness (and perhaps partake in) the variety of emotions that may be surfacing this week, perhaps we can simply reflect. Reflection is one of the very fist steps in creating change, which leads to growth. Reflection often comes in a car ride (like mine here after a beautiful weekend away), or in the shower, by the beach, it usually happens when we are on vacation, away from our day to day and are thinking about our life, our work, how we are feeling, what is working what is not working. At this point, we have many choices, we can stay the course and hope for the best (please do let me know how this works out), or we can start somewhere and take the very fist step in our journey for personal growth. Growth takes courage, it takes humility, and it always takes character. Leaders who are willing to grow, adapt, change, say I’m sorry and keep trying are the real life heroes influencing everyone in their charge to feel safe, make mistakes, believe in themselves and want to grow themselves. Are you ready to start somewhere in becoming the leader we know you can be? hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; #womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

Want to feel really good about yourself? Work on something that you are struggling with. Do it. Just do it. We are capable of everything and anything! The only person holding us back is ourselves and our limiting beliefs. There is power in acknowledging you may not have all of the answers, aren’t perfect and need some help! Whether you are trying to create the most incredibly successful workplace and team or want to achieve or overcome something that you just haven’t been able to so far, all you need to do is start somewhere. This week we will focus on us, our growth, by working on ourselves. It is the greatest gift we can give, to ourselves and to everyone we influence. Yes, that. Work on YOU! hashtag#Executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; #energyleadershipmasterpracticioner; #Clarity13.com

As we close out the week, I want to emphasize the importance of celebrating and investing in OURSELVES! 🎉💪 As individuals juggling numerous responsibilities, it’s easy to prioritize others over ourselves. While that’s often necessary, neglecting self-celebration and personal growth can hinder our true potential. Life throws challenges and joys our way, and it’s crucial to be our own biggest supporter, cheerleader, and advocate. 🌟 Take a moment to reflect on your journey, embrace who you are, and envision the leader and person you aspire to become. Don’t wait until later – the time is NOW to invest in yourself and steer towards your desired future. 🚀 Let’s celebrate progress, prioritize self-discovery, and set the course for a fulfilling 2024! 🌿💼 hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#leadershipcoach hashtag#businesscoach @Clarity13.com

Celebrate and Appreciate EVERYONE!!! Since I was a little girl, I have been on a mission to make everyone feel seen, valued and cared for. I still remember being in 6th grade and wanting to make sure my teacher felt the love she provided all of us. So, somehow, I asked my classmates if they wanted to get together, chip in some money (not sure how much we had back then) to buy her a gift to show her our appreciation. We bought her a beautiful crystal vase (I think it was crystal ;)) and I picked roses from our yard (we ran out of money for the flowers) and we presented her with the vase, flowers and a card that we all signed. I am not sure where I learned how to do this exactly, all I remember is how I felt doing it, how my classmates felt presenting it and how she felt receiving it and let me tell you, it was pure love and magic. We will always remember how someone makes us feel, let it be because they made us feel special and took the time to see us, let us know we mattered and appreciate us for all we are and what we do. Employees do not leave company’s that make them feel celebrated and appreciated. You know what they do, they stay, they bring out their very best selves and they drive your company’s success!!! I want to help you be the most incredible CEO, business owner and leader you possibly can be!!! Take time TODAY to genuinely show up and celebrate and appreciate someone on YOUR TEAM!!! Below are images of celebrating, supporting and appreciating my clients, my colleagues and my friends. hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach, hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#leadershipindexmasterpractioner @Clarity13.com

Happy Labor Day!!! This week we focus on Celebrating!!! If we take a moment to think about why we take the time to celebrate others, we would realize that by doing so, we are pausing to acknowledge that we see, are grateful for, want to encourage and care about those we are celebrating. We are demonstrating in a thoughtful, planned ahead way, that they matter to us. It may come easier to us to celebrate our family and friends and may not be as intuitive to celebrate the individuals on our team and in our work family. Companies and leaders who take the time to genuinely acknowledge that their associates are the most valuable asset they have, will take the time to get to know their associates on a human level and celebrate them, what is important to them and let them know how much they mean to them and to their company’s success!!! So, this week, let’s take the time to celebrate and acknowledge everyone in our lives, with an extra focus in our workplace!!! What do you do to celebrate the members of your team and in your company? hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpraticioner: womenofstamford; #HAVYN @Clarity13.com

Happy Labor Day weekend everyone! 🐱 As we embrace a new season and new beginnings, let’s take a cue from Tucker, my cat, who is helping me drive home a vital point about perception. If we aspire to make positive changes in our lives, in our work and elevate our well-being, it’s crucial to shift our perspective, especially if our current outlook isn’t serving us effectively. Just like Tucker and all of us, our beliefs and patterns play a significant role in shaping our outcomes. If these beliefs aren’t yielding exceptional results, it’s time to alter our lens to break the cycle and achieve new heights. 🌟 Introducing my latest coaching program, “Let Me Introduce You to You,” designed to assist you in understanding your current self as the initial step towards adopting a fresh viewpoint. Let’s embark on this transformative journey together and equip ourselves with a new pair of glasses to navigate life with clarity and purpose. 🚀 hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#leadershipcoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#energyleadershipmasterpractitioner @Clarity13.com Let’s embrace change and step into a brighter future! 🌿 hashtag#perception hashtag#personaldevelopment hashtag#newbeginnings; #womenofstamford; HAVYN

Change Your Mind! Let’s continue to dig into Perception this week. Two people can look at the same thing and see and feel something completely different! One person can see an issue at work as an opportunity that they are excited about embracing and the other can see a major hurdle and want to avoid it as long as possible. One thing, two thoughts, two different emotions and two different responses. Human beings are energy in flesh. Our thoughts create emotions that create results. This fact alone helps us understand that it is our thoughts and the meanings we’ve attached to them throughout our lifetime that is creating our experience. Want to change your experience, solve a problem? Simply, Change Your Mind. #executivecoach; #businesscoach; ##leadershipcoach; #energyleadership; #womenofstamford; #Havyn @Clarity13.com

It’s all about Perception!!! Let’s kick off this week thinking about what we are struggling with. I know, I don’t mean to bring up challenges first thing, yet I really do want to help you with what might be weighing on you personally and/or professionally. So, take a moment and think about the heaviest challenge you are facing, the thing that is distracting you from being your best self lately. Yes, that, might as well. Now, it is probably weighing on you because when you think about it, it is something that you simply don’t love dealing with, it could be a new challenge, or simply in an area that brings up a lot of negative emotion for you. I want you to try something right now. I want you to completely erase the opinion you have about this challenge, issue, thing, relationship and choose a completely different way to think about it, a way that maybe you never considered. Try it. Try it until one thing happens, you feel better, feel at ease, feel like you had a breakthrough. Then, know that this is the best solution and execute. We can solve every problem facing us when we change our perspective! And, there is no better way to step into a new season in life and business than by fully understanding your own perspective and beliefs and how they are affecting your life satisfaction and success at work. Check our my “Let me Introduce You To You Coaching Program” and email Dora@Clarity13.com to take the very first step for yourself and/or someone you know will benefit greatly from understanding themselves and how they are showing up! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; #womenofstamford; # HAVYN @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday Everyone!!! As we approach a season of new beginnings and back to school, why not start with YOU? In my effort to help as many people as I can in my life and through my work (empathy) in becoming their very best self, I am offering an introduction to coaching by focusing on the very first step, understanding YOU, all of YOU!!! This is an incredible way to take the first step to real transformation in your life as we all step into the next season. This is for YOU or someone you want to help in your life (or in your company) gain the most incredible understanding into who they are and how their beliefs are helping them and also holding them back! You can hold a leadership role or you don’t have to! Individual sessions are remote or in person, if local to Stamford, CT Email: Dora@Clarity13.com @Clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; #womenofstamford; #havyn

Let’s continue to dive into Empathy. Research has demonstrated time and time again that Empathy in the workplace is a superpower. I’d say, empathy anywhere, anytime, is a superpower and one that, if not yours, can be cultivated. Let’s take a moment and define it in simple terms. Empathy is the ability to emotionally understand what other people feel, see things from their point of view, and imagine yourself in their place. Essentially, it is putting yourself in someone else’s position and feeling what they are feeling. When we do this for a friend, a colleague, a team member or someone on our team, imagine how they must feel? They feel cared for, they feel seen, they feel heard, they feel safe, they feel valued. They will ALWAYS remember how you made them feel. Empathy is an experience. I promise you that CEO’s, business owners and leaders who show empathy in the workplace will be the ones who transform their workplace cultures for the better by bringing out the very best in others. We know what happens when we do that for anyone! How can I help you? hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; #womenofstamford; #Havyn @Clarity13.com

There is nothing that speaks more to creating a psychologically safe workplace than, empathy. When leaders take the time to not only listen, yet to care about how their employees are really doing, they demonstrate empathy. Empathy in life and in business creates the difference between when someone likes you and when someone loves you, the difference between an okay experience and one you cannot wait to feel again, the difference between an average workplace and a workplace like no other. So, never underestimate the value of genuinely caring about anyone, let alone your employees who, when cared for, will feel psychologically safe, will feel heard, understood, valued. hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; #womenofstamford #havyn @Clarity13.com

As we wrap up this week talking about TRUST, the foundation of any healthy relationship and business, I thought we spend some time talking about who is responsible for creating trust at work. Because trust is the foundation of healthy businesses that thrive, it is something that must come from the very top of a company/organization. So, CEO’s and business owners, you cannot expect trust to begin at any other level in the organization. Like most things leadership, it starts with YOU! What does this mean? It means that YOU must model what trusts feels like. It means that your associates will turn to YOU and see how you react to every situation. They will assess YOUR actions against your mission and values. They will see if you hold your leadership team to the high standards of trust, they will then begin to not only believe there is trust in the workplace, they will begin to feel safe, they will begin to enjoy their work, they will begin to bring their creativity to everything they do, they will take risks, they will wear your company’s swag with pride and they will bring their very best self to work every day. Why? Because you made them feel safe and in today’s environment, what a blessing it will be when your entre company trusts each other? Imagine that!!! #executivecoaching ; #businesscoach; #leadershipcoaching; #womenofstamford; #havyn @Clarity13.com

Be The Reason... This week we continue to talk about and demonstrate what TRUST is, what it does and what it feels like in the workplace. As far back as I can remember, I have always believed that leadership is the greatest privilege and the greatest responsibility. It is of no surprise to me that throughout my career and in my practice, I have taken my leadership roles and my role as a human to heart. When I work with my clients, they already know this or learn this quickly. I have an opportunity in every interaction that I must hold up and that is to be the reason people feel safe in my presence, are willing to be vulnerable and trust that I will do everything to help them. I have been blessed with having some unbelievable leaders who gained my trust completely. I have also witnessed many leaders who lead without trust, only fear. I’d like for all of the leaders who are reading this to honestly ask themselves which leader are you? Your behavior will always speak louder than anything you talk about. If you are saying one thing and doing another, your team does not trust you, they fear you. If your words match your actions and this happens ALL of The Time, your team will not only trust you, they will respect you, feel cared for and will overcome all obstacles to help you and drive your business. Trust is earned, leadership is a privilege and a responsibility. Be The Reason Someone Trusts!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businensscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; #womenofstamford ; #havyn @Clarity13.com

This week, we uncover Trust. We know when we have it, we know when we don’t. As a CEO, business owner and leader, without it, you lack the foundation for everything else to run a successful workplace, business and company. It may take a long time to earn someone’s trust, yet once you have, they will do ANYTHING for you, including bring their very best self to everything they do for your team and your company. Earning someones trust is quite simple. DO what you say you are going to do. hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; #womenofstamford; # HAVYN @Clarity13.com

As we explore the significance of clarity in our personal and professional lives this week, I reflect on how pivotal my Energy Leadership results have been in guiding me towards clarity each day. The Energy Leadership Index assessment stands out to me as the ultimate tool, offering profound insights into our identities, how they impact us, and how we can drive meaningful transformation by comprehending the results. With a background in executive HR and coaching, I can attest that this assessment uniquely equips individuals to understand themselves better and navigate their paths towards success. My journey to becoming an Energy Leadership Master Practitioner has reinforced my belief in the power of this tool to help executives, business owners, and leaders achieve the success they aspire to in both their professional and personal endeavors. The attached image captures a significant moment in my life when I delved into studying, obtaining certification as a professional coach, and mastering the Energy Leadership approach. If you’re seeking answers to questions about yourself or looking to gain clarity in various aspects of your life, I encourage you to consider taking the Energy Leadership Index assessment. The profound insights it offers have the potential to transform your life and drive you towards the clarity you seek. hashtag#EnergyLeadership hashtag#PersonalGrowth hashtag#ProfessionalDevelopment hashtag#Clarity hashtag#SuccessAchievement; #womenofstamford; #Havyn @Clarity13.com

Clarity is the key in navigating through confusion, doubt, and conflict. It’s that moment of breakthrough that leads to a clear path forward. As I guide my clients towards clarity, I find it to be one of the most rewarding aspects of our work together. With a lifetime of experience and tools, I aim to help them achieve their dreams in both their professional and personal lives. How can I assist you on your journey to clarity? hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; #womenofstamford ; @Clarity13.com

This week, let’s talk CLARITY!!! It is the most prominent part of my business name for a reason! Clarity, “helps individuals to define their goals, create a clear path to achieving them, and make effective decisions.” I am convinced that once we have clarity, the rest is simply execution. However, I do not want to underestimate that finding our clarity can take time, can be messy, can seem confusing, frustrating and can you imagine how our associates may feel if we feel this way ourselves? Clarity can be reached, however by getting to the heart of an issue, through conversation, through understanding, through a commitment to ourselves and to our teams to reach it. I’m excited to spend this week digging into just how clarity is the clear advantage for yourself and for your business!!! hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#busiensscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach #womenofstamford #havyn @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday!!! You may be wondering why I am grouping these images together as we wrap up our week focused deeply on belonging. Belonging starts with a smile, welcomes someone onto a team, into a workplace where they can shine individually and collectively as a beautiful, vibrant company. Belonging stems from a connection that is far deeper than separation and competition and placing oneself above others. Belonging stems from love, the pure love we are born with. Love, as a verb demonstrates belonging through action. When CEO’s, business owners and leaders recognize that they are the ones ultimately responsible in creating belonging in the workplace, is when real differences are made and companies become successful. Let me help you create a clear, positive, healthy and successful workplace where everyone belongs!!! It will be hashtag#worthit hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach #womenofstamford @Clarity13.com

I Believe that Together is Always Better!!! This week we are talking about Belonging, Belonging in the Workplace, Belonging Everywhere! I believe that when we were born, we loved everyone and everything. I believe that we only learned along the way to win, to compete with others to make others feel inferior to ourselves, with some idea that this will make us feel better. It’s NOT TRUE. I believe that when we help someone, we feel better. I believe that when we hurt someone, we are hurting ourselves. The greatest leaders in life understand this completely and it is these leaders who always make a difference in others lives. As a CEO, business owner, leader, how many people in your company, in your life have you genuinely shown just how much they belong lately? I want to help you understand your impact on others and how this is shaping your life and your business. hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#businesscoach; #womenofstamford @Clarity13.com

We Are On The Same Team!!! This week, I’m focusing on creating inclusive workplaces where EVERYONE belongs. Just like being on a team, think back to the best coach you had. How did they make you feel? Special? Believed in? Cheered on? Strengthened your strengths? As we cheer on Olympians, remember coaches who didn’t have the same impact. As a leader, you’re the ultimate coach. How do you want your team to feel? Let’s create environments where everyone belongs, co-creating joy and transforming workplaces and people’s lives! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach #womenofstamford @Clarity13.com

Happy Friday! This week, we’ve been focused on getting healthy - not just in body and mind but also in our teams and companies. Organizational health is not a fad or a quick fix; it’s about a healthy mindset, integrity, and unwavering commitment. As Patrick Lencioni aptly put it, “Health Begets-and Trumps-Intelligence.” In a healthy organization, individuals learn from each other, identify critical issues, and recover quickly from mistakes without being hindered by politics or confusion. This leads to faster problem-solving and a collaborative environment where employees thrive. We all recognize the feeling of health in ourselves and our workplaces. Let’s work together to create a healthy culture and company for you, your team, and everyone they interact with! hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

Organizational health is an inside job. It all starts with us – the founders, the CEOs, the leaders, the business owners. Our own health stems from within, beginning with our thoughts and beliefs about feeling better. This mindset translates into behaviors – taking care of ourselves, making good choices, and following through on commitments to maintain or improve our health. Creating a healthy body and mind mirrors fostering a healthy organization. Healthy workplaces are built on a sustainable vision and culture, with leaders who lead by example and foster trust among their teams. By aligning actions with healthy words and strategies, organizations pave the way for a thriving and unstoppable future. I’m excited to guide you in nurturing a healthy environment within your company! #executivecoach #businesscoach #leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

When we talk about being healthy, we often think of feeling good, not being sick, or being fit. The same applies to companies and businesses. In the simplest terms, a healthy organization feels positive, happy, and stands the test of time. This week, we’ll delve into creating and recreating healthy organizations and why organizational health is crucial in business. Patrick Lencioni’s, “The Advantage” is the very best I’ve read on explaining just why organizational health, although not sexy, is critical to your company’s success. Remember, a key measure of organizational health is how engaged your employees are and their ability to speak up without fear. How else do you know that your company is healthy? hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach @Clarity13.com

This week has been all about answering our one question: If you summarized your entire life up until this point, how would you with just one word? As an executive coach, mom, friend, and human, I have always wanted to dig deep, understand people at the deepest level, and help them grasp that who they are today is a culmination of their beliefs. Beliefs that if not serving them can simply be changed. Beliefs are simply thoughts we keep thinking about. My inspiration to do good in the world is fueled by my lifelong learning and experience. One way I learn is by reading inspiring books. "Five Wishes" by Gay Hendricks is just one of them that asks one life-changing question. Change is constant and within our reach. I've embraced change in myself to help others be everything they want to be. What about you? How do you want to change? hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach @clarity13.com #womenofstamford

Passion and Patience was today's theme in my morning meditation. It is of no surprise to me that it showed up today. As you know, I've been spending time recently talking with my clients about who they are and who they want to be. We can decide at any given moment to change, we can simply stop thinking the way we always have and begin to think about something new. We can move toward working and living with a new legacy in mind. When it is all over and we are reflecting back on our life, we want to feel something, something that is true to who we are, true to our passion and this work on ourselves needs patience, just like anything we have ever wanted, it will come if we don't keep getting in our own way with doubt, with resistance. So, today, I am posting this with a different lens. Let's trust the process, let's trust ourselves, as we keep facing the sun in creating the change in us that we know in our souls we want to see. It is my absolute pleasure to help you make the lasting changes in your workplace, in your life!!! @clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach #womenofstamford

The best is yet to be!!!

What is the one word you would choose to summarize your entire life? I recently posed this question to one of my clients, and the answer gave him pause. What's your word? Share it with me. Whether you're content with your answer or seeking change, remember, we have the power to evolve daily. The best is yet to be! @clarity13.com hashtag#whatdefinesyou hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach

Imagine yourself looking up at these balloons, surrounded by your team, your company, in a meeting where we are simply celebrating YOU and your team, all that you are and all that you give every day. The feeling is tremendous and the gesture long lasting. I remember the day, the moment, the company. My message this week is all about keeping it simple. Although this was not so simple to make orchestrate, what is means is actually very simple. I care about you, I value you and you matter. As business owners and leaders, do we show this in our conversations, in our one-on-ones, when no one is watching? If you do, you care and when you care, your team will never want to leave and will do just about everything for you. So, let's continue to keep it simple and let's simply care!!! @clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach

It's The Simple Things That Matter Most, so let's approach this week with this in mind. Take time to smell the flowers and when a challenge arises, approach it with simplicity. Ask yourself, what is the simplest way to solve this problem? Overthinking, over-complicating will often put us in a tail spin. By asking ourselves this question, we can take a much needed step back and get to the root of the issue and find the simplest, most straightforward solution. It's normal to "over" everything these days, yet by keeping it simple, we also help create clarity for others. @Clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach

The capacity to impact and disrupt an entire industry from YOUR Leadership! Imagine THIS💙!!!

Leaders, especially those who are running companies can do so much good in the world by simply creating an environment at work where they do not tolerate anything but taking care of their employees. Genuinely taking care of them all of the time, when things are good and when things are not so good. Employees who feel cared for will bring their very best selves to work, create exceptional results and business will soar! It's that simple. You don't think so, let's try it!!! @Clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach hashtag#businesscoach hashtag#leadershipcoach

Sometimes you just give into the moment and spread some much needed Love ❤️!!!

When I ask CEOs and business leaders what keeps them up at night, their answers might surprise you. They don’t typically mention the economy, interest rates, or elections. Instead, they talk about team issues—turnover, hiring the right people, conflicts among associates, and underperformance. They seek a quick fix, but from my 30+ years in executive HR and leadership roles, I know there is a solution. It's not a magic wand, but a clear, well-thought-out process with the right tools to create a positive, successful workplace. The key tool is having me as your guide to solve these issues and help you achieve your goals. I help CEOs and business owners and leaders create clear, positive, healthy and successful workplaces-it is my passion and my purpose and I cannot wait to help you! @Clarity13.com hashtag#executivecoach; hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#energyleadershipcoach

@Women of Stamford supporting Hope in Motion this morning 🙏💪❤️!!!

This recent picture of me from Mother's Day captures a moment of pure joy, as I am with my children at our favorite local diner. Every interaction with them is a treasure (well, almost every) as I witness their growth into caring, loving, and kind young adults. Parenting and leadership for me, share qualities of selflessness and a commitment to nurturing others' potential. If we are brave and willing enough, it can be a continuous journey of self-improvement to be the best we can be for our children, teams, companies, and truly, the world. How we show up for others makes all of the difference and it always will. Let's strive to be the anabolic leaders we are capable of being! @Clarity13.com #executivecoach; #energyleadership; #leadershipcoaching; #businesscoach;

Memorial Day and what it really means 🙏❤️

What a wonderful Women of Stamford & CoCreate Event last night where we got to have fun, learn, eat, shop and spend time with those we love! Was fun to share what we all believe in and thank you to my family and friends that shows up to support us all ❤️!!!

I want to help you create a company, a business and a team that you would want your children to work in! Part of the work we will do together is to help you concretely understand how you are showing up as a leader through determining your energetic leadership makeup. And, then, raising it! Think about it like this: What happens when energy meets . . . math? The 7 Levels of Energy framework offers the most concrete and comprehensive way to understand our energy, with each level representing a different mindset and corresponding mix of anabolic (constructive) and catabolic (destructive) energy. You have all of these energy levels, yet your belief system, filters and default tendencies you've created to this point are either helping you or limiting you. These levels are not fixed but fluid—you can move between them on a moment-to-moment basis, depending on your situation. Ultimately, you get to choose! Let’s take a look below at how much catabolic or anabolic energy is present in each Level of Energy. When you know yours (by taking and ELI Assessment as part of our Clarity 13 program), our work begins. The results, creating the workplace, the business, the team you would want your children to work in!!! I cannot wait to help you! #executivecoach; #leadershipcoach, #businesscoach; #energyleadershipcoach @clarity13.com

Your reality is the sum of your thoughts, feelings, and emotions about yourself, others, and the world. While each of us has a unique combination of The 7 Levels of Energy, yours is specific to your own viewpoints, perceptions, and beliefs about life. How could this breakdown impact your life, your leadership influence and your business? With the research-backed ELI assessment, you’ll experience profound and practical insights you can use to understand your worldview and transform your life, your leadership and your business into the ideal one you envision. Discover your unique energetic makeup by taking an ELI assessment, make positive, lasting changes to your energetic makeup by working with and Energy Leadership Master Practitioner! Let's start a conversation! Dora@Clarity13.com hashtag#leadershipcoach; hashtag#executivecoach, hashtag#businesscoach; hashtag#energyleadershipcoach

The most precious thing we have in the world is TRUST. It takes a long time to earn someone’s trust and it takes seconds to lose it. It’s not a matter of strategy, technique or the latest tool, it is simply a matter of character. As a leader, keep trust at the forefront of everything you do. With it, you will build an amazing, productive, caring and unstoppable team and company!!! hashtag#executive coach; hashtag#leadership coach; hashtag#business coach
