When you set a goal, how do you hold yourself accountable? ✅📋

This week, Mike and Helena dish their perspectives on accountability. They share goals they want to be held accountable for, how they’ve chosen to be held accountable, and who they’ve asked for help and support.

They offer specific examples of how to navigate various conversations to get the accountability support you need and, on the flip side, to be the right kind of accountability partner to someone else.

In this Episode:
🎙️Mike and Helena’s definition of Accountability; the key is to keep it simple
🎙️Accountability buddies (aka accountabilibuddies); choosing the right person to help you with a specific action/behavior/goal (matching personality/encouragement style with the action)
🎙️Check-ins with yourself and others; what’s working, what’s not and adapting as necessary
🎙️Tracking progress, whether through apps or something else; Helena likes HabitShare, because it’s easy, visual, customizable, and shareable with a friend (not an ad, just a fan)
🎙️The importance of effective communication
🎙Asking someone: How can I best support you?
🎙️Meeting somewhere where they’re at versus using the tools and methods of support that you prefer
🎙️Viewing someone through the lens of when we knew them last or when we formed our perspective about them compared to who they are as a person today
🎙️Helena’s hot take on expectations and disappointment
