Feedback or Questions? Send us a text!Iggy has spent a lot of time outside entreating fifth graders to jump out of trees while hooked to ropes or scaring the crap out of them by hiking in woods at night under the guise of environmental education.  After ratcheting up the intensity she progressed to instructing personal growth oriented canoe/backpacking and dogsled/ski expeditions in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness.  Doing this work with teens and adults made her realize that as the age of the participants increased it was her job to make sure the sophistication and impact of conversation topics kept pace.  Along the way she earned a Master’s Degree in Experiential Education and a teaching license in English Language Arts while completing training on topics like: conflict resolution, restorative justice and mental health first aid mixed with technical wilderness travel and safety skills.  Iggy cultivates masterminds and brings together leaders so they can be more awesome in their work, sport or life. Topics discussed in this episode: Leadership PrincipleTake an active role, make change happenMake your voice matter in your own lifeDon’t Practice CrapConstantly learnKey HabitKeep things that matter in the forefront of your mindPut it on your calendar - schedule itNow what?Try new thingsIntentional introspection - be clear with yourself of what you want, where you want to goCapture it in whatever way matters to youAsk yourself:If you can’t find a role model - you’re on your own pathWhat skills do I needIf it’s scary - it’s probably rightResources mentioned in this episode:  (As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases) The ONE Thing: The Surprisingly Simple Truth Behind Extraordinary ResultsAtomic HabitsQuestions Are the Answer: A Breakthrough Approach to Your Most Vexing Problems at Work and in LifeThe Big Stretch: 90 Days to Expand Your Dreams, Crush Your Goals, and Create Your Own SuccessWhere to find Iggy:Website:  WSL Leadership | AboutInstagram: @wslleadershipLinkedIn:  Iggy Perillo - LinkedInPodcast: https://www.wslleadership.com/podcast Mastermind info:  WSL Leadership | MastermindsGet involved!Do want to be part of a community that practices, encourages and supports being Intentionally Optimistic?
