DunnWise Consulting, tips to shift from fixed to growth mindset, new podcast

Host Jeremy C. Park interviews Doris Dunn, founder and owner of DunnWise Consulting, who discusses her background in leadership coaching, consulting, keynote speaking and hosting a podcast. During the interview, Doris talks about her 35-year career in the insurance industry, including her role as VP of Marketing and Training, before launching her coaching business in August 2023. She describes her coaching services, including one-on-one coaching, group coaching, mastermind sessions, and workshops focused on clarity, mindset, and resilience. She mentions her newly launched podcast, which interviews people who have overcome challenges and discusses the role of mindset in resilience. Doris explains her coaching approach, which begins with helping clients envision their future 3-5 years out and then creating strategic plans to achieve those goals. She discusses the importance of shifting from a fixed to growth mindset and reframing goals using "I am" statements rather than "I want to be" statements to help clients adopt a growth mindset and reach their goals more effectively.

Doris discusses the importance of active listening, emphasizing the need to be fully present and focused on the speaker rather than planning one's response. She shares her long-standing commitment to community service, particularly with the Red Cross, where she has volunteered since age 17 and currently serves on the Nashville Red Cross board. Doris also mentions her involvement in the Tiffany Circle, a women's philanthropy group, and then discusses how volunteerism, particularly with the Red Cross, has helped her develop leadership skills from a young age. She explains that starting volunteer work early provides opportunities to lead, teach, and develop empathy, which are valuable for both personal growth and professional leadership roles. Doris encourages listeners to visit her website at dunnwise.com, follow her podcast "DunnWise Perspectives," and connect with her on LinkedIn to learn more about her consulting services and speaking engagements.
