Can understanding your energy levels transform your life? Join Jodi and Judy on an enlightening journey as we unravel the mysteries of the Energy Leadership Index (ELI) and its powerful connection to mindset. Reflecting on our own experiences, we reveal how the ELI served as a catalyst for self-awareness and personal growth. While I initially felt overwhelmed by my assessment results, Judy saw it as an intriguing path to mastering mindset control. Created by Bruce D Schneider of the Institute of Professional Excellence in Coaching (IPEC), the ELI is not just for leaders; it's a tool for anyone looking to take charge of their energy and improve their human experience.

We guide you through the seven levels of energy, explaining how they shape our responses to stress and everyday situations. From the feelings of victimization and apathy at level one, through the stages of anger, responsibility, concern, acceptance, and synthesis, we finally arrive at level seven—embodying self-transcendence and absolute passion. We draw insightful parallels with the saboteurs identified in positive intelligence, discussing the pros and cons of both lower and higher energy states. The key takeaway? Recognizing and managing your energy levels is crucial for enhancing your well-being and effectiveness.

In this episode, we shine a spotlight on level one energy, characterized by victimization and powerlessness. Through personal anecdotes and examples from popular culture, such as Ross Geller from Friends, we illustrate how this energy manifests in real-life scenarios. We stress the importance of awareness in shifting out of detrimental energy levels and prepare you for our upcoming deep dive into level two energy.
