Summary

When I’m working with private business & leadership coaching clients, one of the things we are always talking about is building traction. When you’re eager to grow and evolve in your leadership (in a business, the workplace, or your community), it’s easy to overlook the significance and impact of small (tiny!) actions over time.   Tiny action adds up. But you have to be paying attention. Notice how you are showing up to do the little things each and every day that further your growth toward your goals. Be methodical and strategic in taking tiny actions and tracking your traction. This can be done by tracking tiny wins as you tick little things off your To Do List, or writing down small accomplishments and achievements at the end of each day. When I am in seasons of struggle and I feel like my growth is stunted or things are just not going the way I want, I commit to taking small, simple steps each day to keep going, while also noting the small (sometimes minuscule) wins each day that prove to me that simple action creates momentum (ie: traction!) and that always feels good.  In this episode, I talk through 5 ways to build traction by taking tiny action. Let’s keep going and growing together!  Sponsor info and promo codes: Please find our sponsor information here: shamelessmom.com/sponsor/ Interested in becoming a sponsor of the Shameless Mom Academy?

Hello, Shameless moms. Happy Monday. It's October. It's actually our second Monday in October,

0:59.9

if you're listening in live time, but it's the first Monday that I realized it's October.

1:05.3

And so, holy cow, time's going fast. Lots of things happening. And October's a really exciting month for me.

1:12.6

And it actually, I was just realizing as I sat down to hit record that October is an exciting

1:19.2

month for me and pivotal in a few ways because of traction I've been building over the last

about myself when I created that rhyme. So just
