We’re suffering through a crisis of loneliness. Research has linked loneliness to a number of harmful outcomes including: • Decreased lifespan • Increased risk of anxiety and depression • Weakened immune systems And those are just a few of the findings. Connecting with others and maintaining fulfilling relationships is critical to living a healthy life -- and the only way to maintain and nurture these relationships is to schedule time for them. I elaborate more in the clip below! How has the pandemic affected your relationships? Are you feeling lonelier than usual? #Indistractable #Relationships …see more

Self-improvement apps like Remente often go beyond screen-level engagement with their users. These apps persuade people to take real actions beyond the technology that shape their long-term behaviors. Companies worldwide are leveraging behavioral insights into apps like these to bridge the intention-action gap. By doing so, they are helping people get closer to their ideal "future selves." But how? Here's how: -The first session of usage is designed to be a success. If we are not exposed to benefits during our very first experience, we will likely discontinue usage. -The next session is planned for. If retention-driving triggers are not set up initially, users will be less likely to return a second time, much less engage in real behavior change. -The benefits are tangible. What's challenging is that these benefits often take months to realize, but the better apps offer rewards as soon as Day 1. -They encourage (and reward) continued usage - aka maintenance of the behavior. -They acknowledge that the path isn't linear. Instead, progress is framed as a series of steps. Share some great self-improvement apps you have used in the comments below! #Hooked #Indistractible #BehaviorChange #SelfImprovement …see more

What do you do when you're in a pickle? Last night I met with Kimberly Zahasky , amazing Growth and Accountability Coach in the greater Madison area. *Side Note: Follow her here and on Facebook (The Professional Optimist) - if you like me, you'll LOVE her! She was speaking on "Beyond Survival: Living Intentionally" and I was all ALL IN to get the hacks to make more happen with less. The presentation was FILLED with goods to eliminate/automate/schedule and optimize time to meet our goals and my favorite tip may have been missed in-between tips and tricks: When you're overwhelmed and need direction, clarity or focus... think about what your future self would tell you to do. I think of an 80-year-old version of me with the name "Betty" like my hilariously witty grandmother. This future self that has accomplished ALL of the goals and objectives you have listed out on your dream board. Think of this wisdom and listen to yourself to accomplish your goals. Keep yourself accountable and make that magic happen. What do you do when you're overwhelmed with ideas and ambition? PS - It was AMAZING seeing you last night, Laura Bermudo and Miriam Bulcher ! ❤🦄🎉 #LifeHacks #PersonalGrowth #GoalSetting #ProfessionalGoals #Leadership #Success #ChantelShares …see more

You know the expression: Truth is stranger than fiction? Sadly, that describes the American presidency at present. If you made up what was happening over the past 10 days, people would tell you that your story was too far fetched, too far from a real situation and to revise what you wrote so it was believable. My question: what do you do when, in fact, truth is stranger (and worse) than fiction? How do you change the course of an off-course tanker truck? How do you restore belief in justice and fairness and the rule of law. Whatever that path is, we need to find it -- now. From lies to leaks, from disclosures to drama, from cover-up to conspiracy, how do we bring back balance to our nation and its people? Think. We need answers. …see more

To the mothers out there: Please fight (peacefully) for a better world for our children and our children's children, a world that values equality and equity in health and education among other fields. And fight (peacefully) for all of kids -- regardless of their race, gender, ethnicity, socio-economic class, culture, religion. Make Mother's Day Matter -- now. Our collective future depends on it. Mother's Day enables all of us to be "Mothers" -- whether biological or not -- to insure a future that is empathic and supportive and giving and filled with wisdom and success for all. That's our role and our job and our task. It's our charge. …see more
