If you’re interested, subscribe to this podcast, and go to the WBB website to get on the email list for updates about this retreat, other workshops, and coaching opportunities. The website is www.womenbehavingboldly.com BOLD POINTS: Know when to strive for better and best, and know when to be okay with “good enough.” Think about who you invite into your inner circle. If you’re the smartest person in the room, you’re in the wrong room. Some top character traits to develop are being truthful, loyal, professional, and having some common sense. Learn to be confident in yourself. Keep an open mind for knowledge and have the desire to go get it. Be curious. Keep growing and learning. The only constant in life is change. Learn to adapt and pivot. It’s all going to be okay. We can adapt. Figure out what you want. Think about it. Ask yourself, “what’s the opportunity?” Be open and don’t pigeonhole yourself. The perfect job/career exists for you. Find the right fit. It’s out there. Work somewhere where you are respected, valued, and heard. If you want to level up or do something different in your career, don’t take no for an answer. If it’s something you want, keep working at it. Figure out what you need to do to level up and just do it. What have you got to lose? If making a career change, highlight the common needs and be confident that you can do it and figure it out. Have hope that things can get better. Be there for the people you love. Remember you can’t please everybody. Be in alignment with your true self. Think through things differently sometimes.
