MVP: Getting Comfortable In Our Zone of Genius To Lead With Confidence & Clarity

In this MVP episode, we talk about the zone of genius with Sophie Weill, Founder of the PR Agency Nude Nation Relations and host of the Active Ingredient podcast. Together, we unravel this fascinating topic. We delve into what is the zone of genius, why it is often related to the Japanese "Ikigai" concept, and what we can do to operate 100% of the time in it. We discuss what it takes to hone the skills that belong to our zone of genius, why we feel miserable when we spend too much time out of it, and why, by doing this, we end up blocking others from accessing their own. We also differentiate zone of genius from zone of excellence, analyze the "know every moving part of your company" business model, and introduce the concept of enrolling as an upgrade of the word, delegating. In This Episode:What it means to operate in our zone of geniusDoes our "original setup," or how we are hardwired, affect how we connect with our zone of geniusHow do we block others from operating in their zone of genius when we decide to work out of oursThe importance of checking in with ourselves regularlyThe differences between zone of genius and zone of excellenceWhen we feel effective and impactful yet not productive, how can we change that mentalityResources:Nude Nation Relations websiteActive Ingredient PodcastBook: Gay Hendricks - The Big LeapLinks:Business Owner Hero Type Quiz: https://lucidshiftcoaching.com/quiz/Connect with Sophie:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophie-weill-4bb9073b/IG: https://www.linkedin.com/in/sophie-weill-4bb9073b/https://www.instagram.com/sophieiweill/?hl=esConnect with Ben:Website: https://lucidshiftcoaching.com/Lucid Shift Coaching IG: https://www.instagram.com/lucid_shift_coaching/Project Candlelight: https://airtable.com/shr5p0P2793RtRk2kThis podcast helps business owners reduce overwhelm, beat imposter syndrome, and lead with confidence and clarity by diving into practical strategies for breaking through self-imposed ceilings, tackling the fear of not being good enough or worthy enough, and overcoming the fear of failure.
