391. Living a Technicolor Life with Wendy Meadows

Author: My Legal Academy November 6, 2023 Duration: 47:13

Today, I am happy to welcome back Wendy Meadows! If that name seems familiar to you, she was a guest back on Episode 307 talking about time management techniques. This time, I am excited to speak with her primarily about her first book: sparkle and GRIT: Live a Technicolor Life by Finally Finding Balance, Escaping Monotony, and Beating Burnout. Honestly, it is one of the best books I’ve read on the subject. Wendy is an attorney, a reformed litigator, a mom, a life coach, and now, a best-selling author. She shares insights into her book, the services she offers, and how law firms can help to coach up their employees. It’s a great conversation, and I hope you enjoy!

In this episode, Neil and Wendy discuss:

  • Wendy’s newest title of Best Selling Author and her new book!
  • Challenges addressed in the book. 
  • Building in one anchor, then stacking habits from there. 
  • Looking at how you are using your limited time for your highest and best value. 

Key Takeaways:

  • Morning routines do not have to start all at once - it is better to start small and with an anchor of just one thing. 
  • As a working parent, it is imperative that you start your day before your kids, otherwise, you are starting behind with your day. 
  • Your morning routine will evolve as you grow and evolve. You will get to the point that you do it without realizing it because it is just what your body does. 
  • Don’t read your email until you are at work - whatever that looks like for you. 

 

"Not one of us is perfect. You can follow a morning routine more often than not, and start good habits as early as tomorrow." —  Wendy Meadows
