1. Are You Operating From Scarcity Louise Neil & Kim Romain 39:19

You’ve likely heard people talking about scarcity vs. abundant (or growth) mindsets. The topic has shown up from boardrooms to lunchrooms to sporting events.

What was once thought of as a “soft” skill or a little “woo”, is now mainstream and something people in all industries, roles, and types of organizations are looking at.

At the heart of it, your mindset is what it sounds like… a set way your mind naturally operates or thinks about things.

Research has shown that positive or growth mindsets allow us to be better able to overcome challenges, have a better sense of overall well-being, and can even prolong your life!

And yet, so many of our clients and folks we talk with are showing up from a place of scarcity, unable to even start opening the door to abundance and growth.

In this episode, Kim & Louise go straight to the heart of the matter and talk about what it’s like operating from a scarcity mindset and share some ideas on how to start to shift to a growth mindset.
