Lead with Levity

Ep. 47 Keep it simple silly: How to cut through the noise to live with purpose

Do you ever feel like life is getting more and more complicated? As the world revs back up to “normal” speed, we are still straddling what was and what may be. I don’t know about you, but I long for simpler times. Today’s guest, Neal Schambra Stevens helps us reconnect with age-old wisdom–K.I.S.S. (keep it simple stupid). Living life to the fullest doesn’t have to be a complicated endeavor.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How a good old fashioned to-do list saves the day
  • How strategy is just a choice between what we will do vs. what we won’t do
  • Energy management vs. time management
  • How to practice energy management
