In this episode, you'll:
1:20 Kick off the New Year with creator of YouMap career profile and author of Amazon best sellers, Kristin Sherry, as we ask ourselves, “What’s the next step for me?”
18:45 Beware of the one-legged stool. Assessments only testing for one characteristic will miss other key areas where you may need to work more on.
29:40 Why do we push back, shy away or react to certain challenges in life, stead of question, look at, and apply curiosity to areas outside our comfort zones?
36:20 It’s either an obstacle or a blessing, that forces us to reassess or even redirect, when we otherwise would have just coasted along the path of least resistance.
39:00 “What if I make a leap, and I don’t like the direction I’m going in?”
How fear of the unknown can hold you back from what could be!
