Tools For Every Day Leaders & Managers With Leadership Coach Kris Plachy

When you are fully dedicated and intricately tied to your mission, it will attract clients to you and allow you to build a team that is also devoted to that same purpose. The work becomes less about you, and more about the vision. One of the ways that allows business owners and CEOs to be able to do this and to make seven figures is through divine spiritual laws. In this episode, I’m excited to talk with Elizabeth Purvis as we dive into a conversation about bringing magic to the mainstream, the global shifting consciousness, and how she uses alternative transformational work to amplify leaders and their businesses. Elizabeth Purvis is a master offers and messaging strategist, business coach, and metaphysical teacher to thousands of women worldwide. Her personal mission is to be a part of the movement to bring magic to the mainstream and to help thousands so that we can shift and elevate consciousness on the planet. With a background in computer science and engineering, she is grounded in the practical, while

Naturally following your passion in life will lead you to success. Pair natural talent with tackling new skills, and you can become an unstoppable force. You only need to lock in and conquer those areas you find intimidating or scary or that seem insurmountable. By avoiding the lure of simply abdicating responsibilities and choosing instead to stand in your CEO role, you can wield the power of a confident woman. In this episode, I’m excited to chat with Erica Tingey, CEO of Women in the Mountains, all about this topic. As a former champion national and international mountain biker, Erica embodies lasting endurance, seeking skills improvement, building confidence, and releasing feminine prowess. A certified Master Mountain Bike Coach, Life Coach and Weight Loss Coach, Erica coaches, equips, trains and encourages other female athletes. I hope this episode invigorates you as much as it did me. “The power of a woman confident on her bike is undeniable and far reaching in the world.” – Erica Tingey What You’ll L

When women have their own money (and lots of it), they have a voice and a choice. Through financial security, women are no longer indebted to anyone and can change the world. Their superpowers are set free by not being beholden to anything. It’s time for women to claim more of a place in this world. For this episode, I’m beyond thrilled to have Fabienne Fredrickson with me to discuss all this, along with some of the how behind making it happen.  As a celebrated business coach for over 21 years, Fabienne has been helping thousands of female entrepreneurs scale their businesses to 10K a month and beyond. Through her signature program, The Leveraged Business, Fabienne and her team help take the overwhelmed woman from being controlled by her business to controlling her business. A woman in the place of financial freedom and security can open and follow the path of getting everything else back as well: her life, her body, and her sanity! When more women feel unapologetically safe and powerful, there’s nothing the

Whether good or bad, a leader is one who inspires others to follow. Beyond this definition, however, there are deep questions. What, exactly, makes a leader powerful and effective? What is the element that goes beyond strategies, methods and competency and taps into hidden CEO magic? A big component is the currency of energy. To understand the existence of the currency of energy and to use that is huge. It releases the magic we all need and want. That, in turn, releases what I hold to be the most important leadership characteristic. I invite you to join me as I explore and share that magical characteristic in this episode. What You’ll Learn The currency of energy Magic, hope and the power of your mind Making sense of the unseen Spirituality Leading and creating your business Attracting followers The most important leadership characteristic When it’s hard Choosing, no matter what comes I love and appreciate reviews from my listeners on iTunes! Would you do me the favor and take a few moments to writ

When people feel heard, they feel known, valued – and this is desperately needed in our modern culture. It is, perhaps, an even deeper need for women in powerful leadership positions. Others listen to accomplished, successful women for the express purpose of acquiring knowledge for their own gain. But who truly hears and sees the strong, powerful women, herself, who is dispensing said knowledge? Out of this reality comes the wisdom that all need to be truly seen and heard. To not be is quite lonely. As women especially, we naturally possess the ability to listen and alleviate this need, if we are intentional to sharpen our skill. Leaders who do so will draw others to themselves who are at the same level, which is both desirable and mutually beneficial. Through this episode, I hope to ignite in you the desire to awaken the deep, pure magic of being a leader who truly listens and sees. What You’ll Learn Why we typically feel unheard Pursuit of knowledge Self-focused society The magic of listening Connect w

Holding others accountable, especially employees, is one of the biggest and most common issues leaders face. Why is it so hard to get people to do what you want or assess performance and address issues? Why is holding people responsible so uncomfortable? I believe the core issue is this: We associate accountability with punishment. Borne from the traditional masculine authority figure dynamic, we anticipate or associate a penalty exacted for an offense. We see this throughout society in various forms. And although punishment is a form of accountability, it isn’t the type needed nor desired in business. It is neither relevant nor applicable. What we need and desire from those we lead is ownership, obligation, and investment in the outcome. We need proper accountability. So how do we nurture that desired environment of personal responsibility? To start, we must disassociate punishment from accountability. What You’ll Learn Defining proper accountability The origin of punishment within accountability Emotions

We tend to be organized, especially as a society. Structured, linear thinking is expected and natural. This leads to us believing not only do we know what will happen but also why. And therefore, we believe we have control over things. This control thought-pattern then breeds a constant stream of how. How are we going to do this, how are we going to do that? But what if not investing all our energy into the how frees us to lean into belief? Frees the magic of the creative process and fuels success for our vision? Let’s recapture the what we’ve been kissed with through embracing the magic of NOT knowing how. What You’ll Learn Why we lose the magic Vision getting lost Not knowing the how An example from my life Absolute clarity, without any idea of the how Loving what you do releases the magic Lean into joy Commit to being more of you The missing piece How versus the energy of truly believing More than just tactics Worry robs us Increased capacity Release your need to

Does how you do things as a leader really matter? I absolutely believe it does. The typical CEO is tired and overwhelmed, and this often results in unwittingly creating problems. But CEO magic leadership can be the solution. It can take your business from just surviving to thriving. But how, exactly, do you learn to possess and dispense CEO magic?   In this episode, I talk briefly about CEO magic. It all starts with correctly identifying the root of problems, and properly addressing the mindset that perpetuates them. From there, you begin to grow, thrive, be filled with joy, and drive yourself and your team in a more positive direction. From that magical place of leadership, success abounds. After sampling the basics I cover in this episode, I invite you to consider diving deeper through my program, How To CEO. I’ve helped many leaders find their magic, and I cherish the opportunity to help you find yours.  What You’ll Learn  Confusing leadership and management  Evolution of your own growth Properly assigni

Do you truly celebrate your business wins? Or do you tend to just blow right past them and move on to the next goal? Yes, it’s important to look forward, make plans, to do all the things to move yourself and your business forward. But might I suggest one additional but ultra-important thing to do? Let me encourage you to do what feels good. That is, celebrating yourself and your successes! As humans, we create things first in our minds. Magical things happen when we imagine them, then make them reality. Through that process, we feel. And great things come to us through feeling. That’s why giving space to celebrating, leaning into accomplishment, and allowing pride, joy and wonder to manifest will foster even more success. Celebrating your success breeds more success! What You’ll Learn Make your list of magic What are the wins you didn’t roll around in this past year? Feel your wins deeply Explore why one success really hit you but another did not Is there unnecessary guilt or shame? Are you mistakenly bu

Happy New Year! How are you?! I love the energy whenever the new year comes around! It’s a great time to pause and focus on your goals, intentions, whatever, right? So, I thought that, following the theme of CEO Magic, I would do a different kind of episode that would encourage you (as female entrepreneurs) to invest in yourselves and your wisdom. I saw that there were no affirmations for female entrepreneurs so I thought I would create some for you. Take from these what resonates as you launch into this new year. What You'll Find in This Episode 1. Information about the upcoming cohort of How to CEO, the next Advanced Leadership Coach certification class, and the Sage CEO program. 2. Affirmations that will empower you into the new year.

Should you pay a year end bonus and give your employees extra? We expect certain results from the people we hire, and we pay them a salary for those results. Not for their time. Not for their experience. We can give them a bonus for just the simple joy of giving a gift or we can give them a bonus based on their individual results/ extra work. Making payment commitments to employees is a serious decision to make and should be greatly considered. A gift can turn into an expectation for your employees and a headache for you. No matter how you decide to pay your people it is an important thing to consider. What You'll Find in This Episode: 1. Having a consistent payment philosophy is key. 2. Bonuses are extra pay for extra results (or they’re gifts). 3. Paying a bonus out over a year is a good way to ensure that the bonus won’t be wasted.

You, as an entrepreneur, have to be an optimist, right? You take risks and believe that something will work out and you cultivate that vision to get your team through the frustration and on to the next thing. Being a leader (as you are), you set the tone for your team. So, why not set an optimistic one?  What you’ll find in this Episode:  There is a lot we need to appreciate and not take for granted.  Entrepreneurs are resilient and optimistic.  Optimistic leaders hire optimistic employees.  Why believe in something awful when you can believe in something cool?       

Sometimes it’s hard to know what’s possible for ourselves, right? I think having visual representations of things that evoke emotions in us can make our brains believe something exists in the world before it actually does exist. That’s why having a vision board is so important. Not just for your business, but also for you! Find some pictures in a magazine and rip ‘em out and place them where you can see them every day! Act as if that’s what’s gonna be in your life one day and just dream, dream, dream! And one day that dreaming will evoke reality! What You’ll Find in this Episode: 1. You can evoke things in your life by visualizing them. 2. Being older doesn’t mean you can’t dream.

Part of our experience as a human is to feel discomfort. We struggle and often ask ourselves, “Why me? Why is this happening? What am I doing?” But none of these unexpected moments are stop signs. They are opportunities to make empowering choices and find what’s next for you.  What you’ll find in this episode:  The magic of adversity can show you what you’re capable of.  Sit quietly with yourself, a trusted advisor, or someone who loves you and find the part of you that you’re having a hard time seeing right now.  Now it’s your chance to do that thing you’ve always wanted to do. 

Welcome to Season TWO of the Leadership is Feminine podcast: CEO Magic.    Let me ask you something, Gorgeous: What makes some leaders more successful than others? Skills and tactics can only get someone so far and attributing it to “just luck” dismisses your own power and inner-knowing.   What I have observed in my life and career as a leadership coach, is that influential women leaders have mastered certain currencies that others have not. The currency of discomfort. Belief. Self-understanding. In other words… CEO Magic. There’s always magic there for you to explore, and that’s exactly what we’re going to do this season. Let’s dive in, shall we?   What you'll find in this episode: An introduction to Season Two of the Leadership is Feminine podcast. The women who have made a significant impact on me and my life. Why I think it’s harmful to attribute someone’s success to “just luck.” The currencies that I believe magicians have mastered. (And how to tap into them yourself!)

I have some questions for you, Gorgeous. What if your growth, both personal and professional, is not dependent on your hustle? What if it's dependent on your rest?   As a woman entrepreneur, the best thing that you can do for yourself and others is to RELAX. As you nurture and seek your own joy, fulfillment, and fun, it WILL spill into your business. In this episode, the season one finale of Leadership is Feminine, I’m teaching you how to re-invent your relationship with rest.   What you'll find in this episode: As a woman entrepreneur, it’s important for you to CHOOSE rest. Consciously choose to believe that rest is equally (if not more) valuable to the performance, success, joy of your life and business. It’s not sustainable for your business to be dependent on your hustle. You have to be, at some point, willing to relax. And willing to unwind yourself from everything. Give yourself permission.

I hear you, love. You're drowning in content. In quote tiles, free downloadables, and 'how-to' guides. You don't need more voices; you need an ear. But not your girlfriend's or your partner's-they can't give you answers or solutions, they can only offer you their opinions, however well-intentioned. Take a look at your business and at yourself as the leader of your business. Where are your pockets of opportunity? Have discernment, where do you truly need development and advisement? Be intentional about which problems you want to solve in your business and then invest in them. In this episode of Leadership is Feminine, I'm teaching you how to reinvent your relationship with time so you can prevent and reduce overwhelm as a woman entrepreneur. What you'll find in this episode: A story about a client who realized the value of hiring talent for her business, rather than wasting time, money, and energy on more courses and masterminds for herself. Along with my own list of trusted coaches and advisors. The misconce

We've all had our fair share of challenges in 2021, haven't we? But, as women leaders, one of the biggest challenges we constantly face is believing in ourselves, in a world that constantly tells us that we're too emotional, too touchy, that we don't have a mind for business.  But guess what, Gorgeous? I think your emotions are your SUPERPOWER. Let me tell you why. What you'll find in this episode: As women leaders, we're insidiously taught that we're too emotional. And isolation among women leaders only compounds the problem. You feel emotions, but you aren't them. You are allowed to feel an emotion, or 12, or 67, during your day. Your emotions are your most powerful indicators of what you're telling yourself throughout the day.

What does it take to get a population of wounded warriors to rejoin the workforce? Beyond offering more benefits and higher pay, this opportunity requires us to re-examine the work environment that we're inviting them back into.   It’s going to be up to women to change and heal the world. And as a women entrepreneur, you know that change is what we're best at. We've already built businesses out of an archaic, patriarchal model. What if this is the time for us to revolutionize the world of work?   What you'll find in this episode: During the height of quarantine, many people were functioning but not really living. What we're experiencing now is an increase of people leaving the workforce, or not returning to it, because they have a backlog of living they need to do. Workers don’t want to go back to the world that they were in before, but a lot of employers have not made any changes to how their businesses operate. Great people always want to work for great leaders and always want to work for great companie

I’m using a really hot topic in today’s environment (getting vaccinated) to discuss values. Your values are a barometer. They are a compass, and they are driving your actions and your behaviors, whether you're paying attention or not. Let’s pay attention and talk about it! What you'll learn from this episode: Women are incredible collaborators, listeners, and communicators. Some people are wanting to make this to-vaccinate or not-to-vaccinate thing a value-based issue. It has nothing to do with values; here’s why. We are more aligned in values than we are giving ourselves credit for, and we're just choosing different actions and behaviors to express them. Kris’s Hawaiian hotel incident as an example of differing values. Stop questioning people's values and start holding people accountable to clearly defined behaviors. You get to have values that you honor, and you get to have expectations of behavior for people you invite into your world. Please click the like button above and leave a review if your favorit
