Inquiring Minds with Donna Karlin & Steve Harper

As you're shifting, you will begin to realize you're not the person you used to be. Where you once remained quiet, you are now speaking your truth. You're beginning to understand the value of your voice, and there are some situations that no longer deserve your time, energy, and focus.  

What are you aiming for? Are you looking at achieving an end result or creating a behavioral change which will get you closer to your ultimate goal?   Join Donna and Steve in conversation about how to kick off the new year.

They batter you trying every which way to get you to relent and give in. But what happens when they can't get away with it any longer? Join Donna and Steve in conversation about ways to deal with these kind of people in your life.

Henry Ford said, "Whether you think you can or you think you can't, you're right." Our mindsets are our truths and our actions support them. What if the assumptions you hold of yourself aren't valid? What if the rest of the world doesn't see you in the same light? Are you too stubborn to see that the direction you set is going to take you on a path that won't serve you?    Join Steve and Donna in...

It's there, and happens for a reason. You don't need to know those reasons since that would be overwhelming, but if something keeps entering your life experience, there is a significant reason why. Life is asking you to pay attention.   Join Steve and Donna in a conversation about the opportunities that show up or coincidences (or are they?) that occur with no rhyme or reason. What is it trying to...

Happiness isn't a new relationship, a new job, not a completed goal, a new car or new house.    Until you give up the idea that happiness is somewhere else or conditional upon something or someone, it will never be where you are.   Join Donna and Steve in conversation about how happiness isn't a destination. It's a choice and how can we "be" there?

The secret, according to Bill Murray, is to have a sense of yourself, your real self, your unique self. And not just once in a while,or once a day, but all through the day, the week, and life!   Join Steve and Donna in discussion of what it means to really know who you are and life in alignment with that.

Has it occurred to you that you're right in the middle of what you used to look forward to? What are you doing to honor that?   Join Donna and Steve to discuss how we view our achievements and contributions and what happens when we actually achieve what we had set out to do.  

A great discussion isn't one where you're on the same page and agree. That's an easy discussion. A great discussion is when you explore divergent viewpoints. A magical discussion happens when you take bits and pieces of all viewpoints and co-create something new and powerful.

You have to let go of things that stop you from growing. Whether past successes, points of view or that which is comfortable. Join Donna and Steve in conversation about what letting go can bring to your life and open you up to amazing growth.  

We often try to change ingrained habits that aren't serving us and more often than not, don't succeed. What if we made tiny habit changes instead?  Join Steve and Donna in conversation about how to make tiny habit changes that create massive shifts.

Donna and Steve discuss 4 reality check questions that can help you focus on what you want to achieve, learn and integrate in a way that will help you see well beyond your present awareness.

There will always be someone who questions your value, ignores your talents, overlooks your skills and sells you short.   Just don't let that person be you!

Mistakes are stepping stones and just a bump in the road which you can navigate.   Join Donna and Steve in conversation as they discuss how to use mistakes to fuel success.

It's actually incredible what you'd be able to do, see, experience, and feel if you'd be willing to let go of:   The past The outcome The need to know   Those are all tethers holding you back or possibly steering you in the wrong direction. Join Steve and Donna in conversation about how to identify roadblocks and tethers, let go of narratives that aren't serving you so you can FLY!  

Join Donna and Steve in conversation about how not to let mistakes slow you down and take your eye off the ball of success.   

How is each individual impacting your culture? Team cohesiveness? What can you do when you have a Bully in your midst or someone who just won't take direction?   Join Donna and Steve in an in-depth look at how to dance in real time with situations where you might feel blindsided, sidestepped or minimized.   #crucialconversations #bullying #leadership #coaching

Steve Bartlett said, "LIfe taught me that the thing you want to do but you're scared to do is what you MUST do! Everything I'm most proud of started with fear and ended with happiness"   Join Donna and Steve in conversation about our comfort zones, what will get us past the roadblocks fear puts in front of us and how getting to the other side of that brings such a sense of personal pride!   #proud...

Have you ever pressed 'SEND' on that email and immediately knew it was going to dig you in deep?

This quote from Tony Robbins says so much. Is the goal the desired end result or is it how it helps us grow, be better, stronger, better informed so we can be more and do more?   Join Steve and Donna in conversation about what goals really do in our life or what they can do to help us become more of who we are.   #goals #growth #viewpoint #coaching #inquiringminds   

Is our self talk helping move us closer to our dreams, success, growth? Or is it holding us back?

Are you so focused on getting that promotion or bonus that it's all about you?

Looking at what has meaning to you but to so many others as well. When we look beyond ourselves, the rewards that come back to us increase exponenti...

f you strive for perfection and are so focused on that end state, it takes all the joy and magic of realizing your dreams. You're so busy beating yourself up that it's not good enough that you can't enjoy the realization of having embarked on achieving that dream.   What's standing in your way of going after your dream? Do you feel it might not measure up? That you won't measure up?   Join Steve a...

If you're going to be spending most of your waking hours at work, then why not on your dream? When you're doing what you love to do, want to do, and honor that which has the most meaning to you, it's not work at all.
