30: You Can Have It All; First You Must Define "All"


Listen Later

Is there a dream job? Is there a dream life? Is there any possible way to "have it all"? This week Erin Hatzikostas and Nicole Licata Grant sit down to discuss the journey they have taken so far, what they have both learned from it about themselves and each other, and then bring into question their mottos and advice, showing how important self-reflection is. While discussing their journeys, both personal and professional, they let you in on some recent good news, for both of them, and also some whacky stories in the WTF moments of the week - FYI stay away from poison ivy and poisonous car dealers.  It's important for everyone to reflect on what has passed, to be critical of themselves, and to highlight the positives so that moving forward we can all grow and develop.  Listen in for another 'How Was Your Week?' wild ride.

"This outside perspective, the different perspective, is something I think is really powerful." "When things start getting touchy-feely I'm immediately thinking 'we've gotta bring a spreadsheet to his, I need a diagram or something.'" "You're heading to Broadway but you've ended up on 9th. But that's not where you're supposed to be, and you wouldn't have so many barriers if you'd taken that right turn." "Who says this is the top?" "If you keep just doing the things and hitting the deadlines, that is the best way to blend in." "The 'dream job' is not a static thing, and it's probably not even a job, it's a dream life." "Failures are the golden eggs of opportunity." "I look at myself and I say 'Nicole you're not a distance runner, you're not gonna win a marathon' and I'm ok with that, so why would I try and win the corporate marathon?" "I think that 'you can have it all' has been said so many times that we've let society define it." "Own your all." "Do you remember when we named it b CAUSE, because we had a cause...and because we had no clue what we were doing." "Why do we keep asking perfection of ourselves, when we are dealing with something that is so imperfect." "You're the kind of person that just gets shit done." "If you keep doing the things and hitting the deadlines, that is the best way to just blend into the wall." "Monday I was coming back from a wedding, shit got all messed up, and I was running a board meeting from a truck stop in New Jersey." "If you were perfect people might think that you're not human." "I got there at 9. I was in the poison ivy bush by about 9:36." "There's greatness, and there's great work to be done, and I want to get the fuck to it."
