Are you tired  of all of the podcasts and blog posts talking about new year goal setting? 

Maybe its time for a new approach. 

If you listened to the last two episodes, you know how important that I think it is to define your purpose before you arbitrarily select personal leadership goals.  But, in addition to that, I also think that it's important explore the character trait that you will need to be successful with your goals, perseverance. 

We have a great story of perseverance to share today.  I got the chance to talk with Melanie, a working mom to teenage boys who journeyed to the top of Mt. Kilimanjaro in an effort to empower women.  It was not an easy journey.  In this episode you'll hear about the many roadblocks she faced and the lessons she learned that you can apply to the mountains (figurative, and maybe literal) that you want to climb this year. 

So if you're committed to being successful in focusing on what really matters this year or if you just like a good adventure story, enjoy my conversation with Melanie.
