Walker https://permalink.castos.com/podcast/8002/episode/2092403 https://coaching-cocktails-conversations.castos.com/episodes/how-to-rebrand-part-ii-rebranding-within-relations28 In Part II of The Rebrand Within series, we explored what it means to rebrand your relationships, not by cutting people off, but by realigning with the version of you that’s evolving. Using the metaphor of a suitcase, we unpacked the emotional baggage we’ve been carrying, checked the pockets for subtle patterns and outdated dynamics, and intentionally repacked only what serves our next chapter.

This episode was a reminder that rebranding is not rejection, but instead, it’s refinement. It’s about reassessing roles, boundaries, and energy exchanges in a way that honors growth. It is a reminder that sometimes, the most self-loving action you can take for yourself and others is to present yourself differently.

With every headline, shift in leadership, personal struggle, or moment of doubt, we can feel lost—disoriented, pulled in different directions, unsure of which way to go.  But what if we remembered that we already have a built-in compass?  Join Jen Aks as she and Lolita E. Walker dialogue on Jen's 3 E's, leveraging the power within, and how to think of the north, south, east, and west on your internal compass.  

Here's the flow:

  • Minute .039:  Excited to join you in Season 6
  • Minute .170:  Welcome to CC&C
  • Minute 1.04:  Intro to topic
  • Minute 2.42:  Jen Aks on leading from within
  • Minute 4.52:  Where and how you can start to calm the chaos
  • Minute 8.10:  Jen's 3-phased approach
  • Minute 13.07:  Body setting and gesturing
  • Minute 23.58:  Finding your stillness in the midst of chaos
  • Minute 26.20:  Life can be flustering
  • Minute 27.25:  What if you did the opposite?
  • Minute 28.02:  Leaning into the acronymn N.A.V.I.G.A.T.E.  When life’s storms push you off course, use this acronym to NAVIGATE your way back to alignment:

Notice – Pause and observe how your body feels.
Align – Use breath, movement, and mindfulness to reset.
Voice – Speak what you need, whether through words or movement.
Intuition – Trust your gut; your body knows the way.
Ground – Stay rooted in the present; avoid spiraling in fear.
Adapt – Be willing to pivot and shift as needed.
Thank – Show gratitude for your body’s wisdom.
Elevate – Move forward with clarity, confidence, and confidence through your 3 E’s. (Embody, empower, elevate)
