One of the most fascinating things I notice when working with people is this: no matter what it is we are dealing with, when we are explained the process or have some kind of a framework to follow - things seem to make more sense and we seem to find more peace with it. I am a geek when it comes to understanding human nature through research and science - I love to learn to apply the tools I learn and see what shows up. Today I talk about a theory that explains how we process change, how long it takes and how you cannot force the process. Thanks to this framework, I can look at something and understand where I am at and where I am headed. It's really kind of interesting when you start to observe your own process.

I really believe that there is something that we are all good at (yes, that includes you!)…….one thing that you can do and feel good and know that you are doing a good job - bonus if it makes you feel like you can fly. But, most of us follow the conventional path of doing what's right and end up in jobs that have the potential of killing us inside. Let me be clear - I don't think everyone needs to do their own thing. I do believe that some people like 9-5 lifestyle and security so they can focus on other things. The problem arises when you find yourself in a job that is not a fit and where you feel like you are always interviewing for the job you already have. Over time, this predicament can seriously erode your confidence and make you feel stupid. You think I am kidding? I see smart people daily who think they are stupid because they find themselves in a job that is not their zone of genius. This is scary! Today, I talk about this problem and offer few nuggets of how to navigate these waters. This is a public episode.

I had the privilege of meeting Michelle Raven, founder of personal shopping service at Arc's Value Village. We talk about where her idea came from, why it was important to follow through and how does momyhood play into what she does.

When I follow my morning and evening routines, life is better. It's as simple as that. Routines are intimate, they are solely yours and they have to work for you.
