1 小时 5 分钟I had been really encouraging women to aspire to be CEO's and senators and to launch their own businesses to be entrepreneurs.
But the women were saying, Tiffany, that's all well and good, but I'm just trying to figure out how do I get out of the house in the morning, on time with everybody with the right backpack and the right lunch?
And I just, I can't quite get there because I'm still, I'm just so overwhelmed with what's currently on my plate.
Today's guest, Tiffany Doofu, has been featured in New York Times, Essence o MPR.
She's a consultant to Fortune 500 companies, a speaker on leadership.
She's presented at Fortune's most powerful women summit makers.
Ted women.
She's pretty much a force of nature and an awesome human being.
And we sit down today to talk about a bit of a different topic.
She's also the author of a new book called Drop the Ball.
And it's an exploration of how sometimes we're so externally focused on building tools for leadership, for growth, for performance in the big questions, the big topics that we find are super important to us, super meaningful to us, the things we consider ourselves to be contributing to the world the most fiercely.
And we kind of forget to reflect back on some of the deeper assumptions that govern our personal lives, our personal relationships, and really look at how those are affecting the way that we're bringing ourselves to the world.
You know, re examining roles of gender in relationships, typical roles and jobs within a household.
And it's so interesting because I think so often so many folks who rise to power end up sort of ignoring this part of their lives.
And that's really where we go in this conversation together and a lot of really big aha.
Moments and some great ideas.
And I'm personally going to be exploring in my own life and the way that I sort of examine the roles that I play in my relationships.
So really excited to share this conversation with you.
I'm Jonathan Fields.
This is good life project.
