The Chase Jarvis LIVE Show

In this podcast, Marcus Buckingham takes on a journey through what makes the individual unique and why everyone should embrace their weirdness. Marcus discusses the Norse concept of "WYRD," whereby everyone is born with a unique "Spirit" or "Daemon" that defines the life we subsequently lead. "Red Threads" are the energy fields we should search out and harness to enjoy our life here on earth fully, and you notice those energy fields when time begins to pass so quickly that you don't see it. Marcus Buckingham has devoted his career to understanding what makes people thrive at work. His new book, Love + Work, takes readers on a journey to discover where they are at their best—both at work and in life. Marcus draws on years of research to explore the concept of "flow"—a state of peak performance in which we are fully engaged and lost in the moment. He shows us how to find our flow by uncovering our strengths and values and reveals the surprising secret to a fulfilled career: not finding our passion but loving our work. With insights and stories from some of the world's most successful people, Marcus provides a roadmap for anyone who wants to achieve their full potential. Love + work is an essential guides to living a life that is both meaningful and fulfilling. Enjoy! --- Today's episode is brought to you by CreativeLive.

In this episode we explore if unexpressed creativity is pulling you in the wrong direction and how to re-awaken it. Enjoy! --- Today's episode is brought to you by CreativeLive.

In this episode, I answer two popular questions. The first question I don't get asked enough, but I've certainly thought a lot about: how do balance career, exercise, and creative time. While this can be different for everyone, I share a few key aspects I've learned over the years including how I protect my self-care routine. Next, Dylan called in asking about how to manage two similar but different passions. We're all multi-hyphenates. Our passions have many layers and explorations. However, clients for one passion may not be the same for another. We get into how to manage it and at what point does it make sense to combine all your work in a single portfolio. I've been taking your questions on whatever is holding you back and getting in between your goals. It's part of an ongoing series I started on YouTube, called Daily Creative.
