My guest today is Christina Eanes and get this, she was an FBI agent and trained other agents. How cool is that?Through more than fifteen years of public service with a California police department and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), Christina worked on an array of programs, including the FBI’s Violent Criminal Apprehension Program and the FBI’s Leadership Development Program, where her teams helped train thousands of leaders.From there—all before she was 40—she knew it was time to jump into entrepreneurship. In her leadership development and coaching company Christina inspires others to take responsibility for their success at work and home. Along with her team, she provides invaluable strategies that lead to better professional and personal relationships, improved communication skills, and, ultimately, increased productivity in accomplishing personal and organizational goals.Which brings us to Escape rooms or games.Really? According to Christina, “Escape rooms help us see clearly how we create our own realities and how we experience life.” She and her husband are pr0- escapeletes (pronounced escape-leets) with a 97% success rate. You def want her on your team when the zombies are approaching.For those who don’t know what an escape room is, here’s a Wiki on them.A good part of their success is setting an intention for the kind of experience they want to have. For them it’s always relationship first. “When you walk in with relationship first, it really changes how you communicate with each other, the level of stress in the room and realizing that we're here to get through this together, it just creates more collaboration, too.”It's great for emotional intelligence, too.Like many of us having come through Covid, “nothing today is taken for granted” she told us.And I’ve heard from other coaches that many more women are waking up to “I just realized that if this is all there is, this is not enough for me” or “this is not the way I want this to be.” Have you experienced feelings like this? Dissatisfaction with something in your life?When you are in that place there are plenty of new opportunity, a lot of excitement or enthusiasm. But I know that it can be scary when you don't know what to do or how to make change happen.Christina’s latest book is:The Secrets to Super ProductivityThe secret to super productivity is all about managing your energy, not your time,Here’s her 3 step system for productivity1.     Know yourself—know when your energetically the strongest2.    Know your "ECs" and your ECs are your energy consumers and energy creators.3.    Plan accordingly.In her system she identifies 4 levels of energy            4. super productive, firing on all pistons            3. productive, getting stuff done just not bursting with energy            2.
