Stop Doing Everything: Strength Based Team Building with Lindsay LaBonte
Ever wondered what happens when "Take Your Daughter to Work Day" turns into a full-blown career? This week's episode is a delightful deep dive with Lindsay LaBonte, who turned her childhood fascination with her dad's mortgage business into her own financial industry adventure!
What's in store:
- The real story of how Lindsay went from "playing bank" as a kid to actually running one 🏦
- The juggling act of motherhood, leadership, and that pesky thing called "parental expectations"
- How to delegate better as a leader
- Why discovering your strengths might be better than therapy (StrengthsFinder for the win!)
Lindsay spills the tea on the art of delegation (spoiler: it's not just dumping work on others), how to create a team that doesn't make you want to hide in the supply closet, and finding moments of joy in the financial world.
Plus: Learn why sometimes the best career move is taking a nap! Lindsay's refreshing take on energy management will have you booking that vacation day you've been putting off.
This episode is perfect for anyone who's ever thought: "I have no idea what I'm doing, but I'm doing it anyway!" (Which is all of us, let's be honest.)
