Dr Sharon Pickering shares her perspective on personal and professional alignment, challenging us to explore what alignment means to us as individuals and how it impacts our ability to perform at our best. We discuss how to navigate the complex relationship between our internal values and the external demands that compete for our attention in modern life.

• Understanding alignment means recognising there's no right or wrong way to align yourself with your values
• Finding alignment requires putting joy at the centre alongside your purpose and values
• Adaptability is crucial for alignment, especially when rigid goals and timelines create unnecessary pressure
• Recognising misalignment often requires an emotional check-in that many people resist or don't know how to do
• Negotiating with yourself must come before negotiating with others for true alignment
• The best starting point for alignment is asking "What is in my control?"
• Alignment is cyclical and changes daily—it's never perfect but always personal
