Fresh off a keynote* last week where I talked about the IEP Method®, self-care as a leadership skill, and how our impact is dependent on our ability to lead our Intentions, Energy, and Presence, I received multiple questions from members of the audience. I love it when this happens. And I love it, even more, when I can answer the questions and share them here for more of our community to benefit from. 

In this 5-minute video, I address these core topics/questions:

• Why IS self-care a leadership skill? How does it impact my impact? 
• What are some simple ways to address self-care when you have competing time zones and schedules?
• What if my clients/team/spouse/people don't think that self-care should be prioritized and therefore make demands on me that don't feel right? 

* The keynote was Showing Up for Leadership: Your Presence IS Your Impact. If you are interested in having this talk (or another one) for your group or your next conference, contact uss!
