RaderCo - Weekender Snapshot


Happy International Digital Wellness Day!

Today, we practice a pause with technology and reflect on our relationship with it. This year's theme is digital balance. I'm not a fan of the word digital detox and prefer digital downsize instead. Detox suggests we have a sickness and shouldn't use tech—quite the contrary!

How can we downsize our digital footprint and find more balance with analog activities or be more present?

At RaderCo, we swear by Zoom and Email-Free Fridays. At home, we have phone-free Friday nights starting at 6 p.m. Learn more about unplugging to recharge for digital wellness day and beyond.

Last week, our Speakers With Impact Mastermind had our quarterly retreat. My takeaway action was crafting a mini-book from the first month of habits from Work Well. Play More! Perfect for events. Cynthia Barnes, on the far right, had her TEDx talk released this week. If you have a habit of deflecting or downplaying compliments, I highly recommend taking 10 minutes to watch her talk and then take action and say thank you instead! Link to Video

Now, onto a biggie:

My TEDx talk, The Relentless Pursuit of More, is gearing up for launch. I need all you helpers out there to do me a solid and make it a hit! When the video drops, we've only got 72 hours (gulp!) to boost those views. Unfortunately, I won't know in advance so when it hits the interwebs sometime in May, we gotta be ready!

Will you be a helper?

It's an ultra-light lift—all you gotta do is:

  • watch
  • comment
  • share

We'll be throwing a virtual watch party (or two) during that 72-hour window (fun prizes will be in the mix!)

When you get this, I'll be spending a solo Friday at home and completing another section of Beyond The Estate Plan Guide: Important Details Your Family Needs When You Aren't Here to Tell Them.

Then, it's a weekend of mountain biking and chilling at home before jetting off to Portland for a new photoshoot, a speaker's reel, and hanging out with pals.

On with the Weekender!


PRODUCTIVITY QUICK TIP

self-care: why it’s not just on you, but your company too

Do you think it's all up to you to incorporate self-care into your life? I challenge that assumption. Leaders and companies need to look at what can be changed upstream to decrease the need for it rather than providing another meditation app or on-site massage day. One way to eliminate microstressors for your team members is to schedule any emails you send outside their scheduled work hours.

It's been a rough(ish) couple of weeks. Scene 1: San Juan. I flew in to keynote for PrimeGlobal and felt a cold creeping in. I left the networking event early, slept, and still woke up scratchy on Tuesday, keynote day. I powered through, lost most of my voice a few hours later, but still walked Old San Juan with my friend Wendy (I didn't feel terrible, and I wasn't going to miss seeing the city). Highlight: a coquito iced latte in a tiny café. Not-a-highlight: realizing my $10.18 drink was ~5...

Happy New Year! We road-tripped to Indiana for family time, then came home to finish the kitchen reno from hell, including a countertop install that “forgot” the stove cutout and an electrician who left a hot wire waving hello. Holidays in style with Kevin! But…it’s beautiful, and we’re prioritizing more entertaining this year. I’ll share my prioritization + planning process on the Jan 27 podcast. High fives to everyone who took the Weekender Snapshot Survey—extra star jumps to our winners of...
