153: Your Brain Has Too Many Tabs Open (Here’s How to Close Them)
Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
When you are a person who carries a lot of responsibility, your attention is your most valuable asset, and it's also the first thing the world tries to take from you. You've learned to multitask, to stay available, to keep the tabs open. And because you're still producing, still delivering, still showing up, no one tells you what it's actually costing you. In this episode, I'm sharing why presence is the foundation of your leadership, and the four-step HERE Framework that helps you reclaim it, in your most important conversations at work and at home.

152: The Remedy For the High Performer's Success Drift
Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
When you're a high performer, you learn to endure. You adapt, take on more, carry a lot for others, and figure it out. And because nothing breaks, you keep going on momentum and autopilot. But there's a moment that quietly determines your next decade, one that doesn't look like failure or feel like a crisis. It's when the internal alignment between your life and who you are today has quietly expired, and you're still living by rules you wrote for yourself 20 years ago. In this episode, I'm sharing why ‘success drift’ is far more dangerous than failure for high performers, and the strategic...

151: The Year-End Review And The Epidemic of Not Celebrating
Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
When you're moving at full speed, it's easy to cross the finish line of one goal and immediately sprint toward the next. High performers do this constantly, accomplishing meaningful things, then dismissing them because they "should have happened sooner." But that pattern costs us more than we realize. We're discarding the very evidence that could accelerate everything we want in the year ahead. In this episode, I'm sharing the Year-End Review. A four-step exercise that's been responsible for continual growth in my business, relationships, and leadership for over a decade. This isn't...

Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland

146: Redefining Success: After the Climb
Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
I’ve got a big question for you today… one I’m betting no one’s asked you in a while: What does success mean to you now? Not the version you scribbled in a vision statement 20 years ago. Not what your parents wanted. Not the one culture that flashes at you with big vacations and busy calendars. I’m talking about your definition. Right now. In this season. With the life you actually have—not the one you’re still chasing. Here’s why I’m asking…over the past few months, I’ve been having conversation after conversation—at dinner tables, over coffee, on coaching calls—with...

Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
You’ve achieved everything you were supposed to: a successful career, a full family life, the ability to get things done. And yet, you find yourself asking… Why don’t I feel more satisfied? Why am I still not at peace? In this deeply personal episode of Playing Full Out, I step away from the quick tips and high-performance tools to share the truths we often don’t talk about—the emotional toll of always being “on,” the subconscious fear of not being enough, and the secrets we keep even from ourselves in the name of success.

Playing Full Out™ with Rita Hyland
Do you ever find yourself reacting in the heat of the moment, only to regret what you said or did just minutes later? Whether at home with your kids, in the meeting room, or even behind the wheel, our instinctual "first thoughts" can often lead to unnecessary conflict and misunderstanding. In this episode, I'm sharing something simple and powerful that can truly improve your connection with others. It's called The Second Thought Method, and I promise you, it can transform your relationship and dramatically reduce the stress and problems often resulting from reactive communication. Our mission...
info_outlineYou already know relationships are the foundation to a life well lived. Yet most of our relationships with our spouse, kids, siblings, parents, colleagues and clients are left wanting for something more. Since our relationships matter so much doesn’t it make sense that we become better at them?
[Enter the Enneagram.] The Enneagram can greatly improve your leadership and your relationships. I know first-hand—my family and I have been able to leverage this unique personal development tool to improve our family relationships. But what is the Enneagram, how does it work, and why does it matter? We’re covering all of that in this episode with highly sought after relationship consultant and enneagram expert, Leslie Neugent. And we begin the conversation with a peek into how our childhoods shape the adults we become and the coping mechanisms we develop.
Leslie is not only a friend, but she’s also a sought-after relationship consultant, Enneagram expert, and speaker! I’m so excited to have her join me for this in-depth conversation about the 9 Enneagram types, their superpowers (or gifts), as well as the blindspots of each. You’ll also learn how the Enneagram differs from other personality tools and why it's so popular for increasing self-awareness in family dynamics, team building, executive coaching, and marriages.
There is, in fact, so much detail Leslie shares with us that we divided the conversation into two episodes. Be sure to catch Part 2 of this enlightening episode by following the Playing Full Out Podcast and/or signing up at rita@ritahyland.com where we will notify you when Part 2 is released!
