On this weeks episode, I am joined by the two wonderful hosts of The Make Work Human Podcast. Larissa Haynes and Jen Baggett played, laughed and shared so many nuggets of wisdom. We discussed the idea that you get to create the game, especially as an entrepreneur. It's your game. You make it up just like kids do when they play games in the neighborhood. We discussed my new favorite word gameifying, which is when you create a game in your work around something mundane. One of my biggest take aways from the whole conversation was finding pleasure in the labor. Everything can't always be fun, but there are ways to enjoy the process a little more. Please have a listen it's a truly wonderful conversation.
Top Topics :

Find Pleasure in the Labor
Choosing to show up. We have more choices than we realize.
Where do I find the pleasure? Where do I find the joy?
Things I love so much I'd do for no money. Things I'd do for money. Things no matter how much you pay me I'll never do it.
Gameifying your job. (Gameifying may be my new favorite word)
What are your non-negotiables? What are you willing to do and what are you not willing to do? These will change and evolve over time. Check in on them.
It's your game. You make it up.
If you're gonna get in the game you have to stop worrying about what the people in the nosebleeds will say.
Creating a bliss list.
Prioritize Pleasure.
