319. Clarity & Harmony: The New Mantras of Success with Clara Capano
Our special guest today is Clara Capano, a prominent international speaker, best-selling author, and the Chief Harmony Officer of Capano Speaking and Training. Clara is a multi-faceted personality and juggles multiple roles with enthusiasm, including being the host of the Working Woman's Channel and Living Real TV.
Clara’s latest book, "The Mother of All Success Manuals: How to Control Your Days, Lose the Guilt, and Find Harmony between Work and Life,” was designed with working moms in mind. The book is a mirror reflecting Clara's personal journey of achieving the delicate balance between motherhood and professional life.
At the age of 37, Clara experienced a professional burnout that served as the catalyst for the creation of the strategies discussed in her book. A pivotal moment in Clara's life was when her young son accused her of not being attentive to him. This incident sparked a moment of introspection and realization, causing her to reevaluate her life choices.
The cornerstone of Clara's work is her Clarity Success Method. This unique model follows a mnemonic based on her name, each letter signifying a vital business strategy to enhance productivity while maintaining work-life harmony:
-
C - Clarity of their vision
-
L - Leveraging time
-
A - Action on the vital few things
-
R - Rest and reflection
-
A - Articulating value
-
T - Tracking and measuring
-
Y - Celebrate the wins regularly
Clara firmly believes that self-care is not selfish, but a necessity to deliver value to others. She stresses the need to find joy in everyday life and dedicate at least 15 minutes each day to it. Clara's joyful moments range from practicing gratitude, having a morning cup of coffee, sneaking a midday nap, to scrolling through TikTok.
Clara emphasizes that we can't – and shouldn't – try to do it all. She urges everyone to simplify, delegate purposefully, and focus on staying in their zone of genius.
The Biggest Helping: Today’s Most Important Takeaway
“Get clear on defining what you want your life to look like. Get clear on what does success mean to you. Own it. Your why is your why. Use that vision to drive you, to allow you to stay connected, and to be that rocket fuel inside your soul that lights you up every day.”
