Welcome to this week's episode of The Flourish Careers Podcast! Today, we're discussing a crucial aspect of navigating your heart-based career path: curiosity.

Have you ever received guidance that changed your career? For me, it was "always remain open and teachable." These words have been my guiding light, opening doors to fresh opportunities. I love the idea of thinking about our career as a lifelong adventure; every experience is a chance to grow.

Join me to learn how you can embrace the power of remaining open, watch your career flourish, and stay forever in bloom. Be sure to tune in until the very end to hear the hysterical gift from my brother and his family; I use it as a daily reminder to cultivate curiosity by letting go and inviting a little play into my day. 🤣
