Unstuck Your Life

76. Saying No to Good So You Can Have Great


Listen Later

Saying ‘no’ to mediocre opportunities is easy.  Saying ‘no’ to good opportunities is hard.


In order to have a great life you’re going to have to say ‘no’ to a lot of good things, which isn’t easy.


That’s what I’m talking about this week with Elana McKernan, a Master Certified Coach who, until recently, was the Chief Operating Officer for one of the biggest names in life coaching.


Elana walked away from a position so many people wanted so she could pursue what she truly wanted.  Her story resonated with me because that’s exactly what I did in broadcasting.  I walked away from a career I spent 17 years building to go after what I wanted.


If you’ve ever wanted more but didn’t know how to get it and therefore settled for what you have … this episode is for you.


This is an open and honest conversation from two women who were afraid to make a big move but did it anyway.  We don’t sugar coat things or tell you it’s easy.  What you will get out of this is a framework to challenge your own thoughts, the importance of developing a strong relationship with yourself and an example of what’s possible.

About the host:

Hi, friend! My name is Pamela Hughes and I’m a former talk show host turned life coach. After 20 years in the news business, I walked away from what people thought I should do and I did what I wanted to do … coach people who are stuck like I was and help them find relief, awareness and control within themselves.

This was no easy task and I’m not here telling you it was. I had to take full responsibility for where my life was and then decide where I wanted it to go. It was time to stop complaining about my situation and do something about it. I had to stop looking for others to validate me and start having my own back. This required looking inside myself for the answers instead of looking outside of me.

I told you it wasn’t easy … but I wouldn’t change one thing about my journey because it led me right here to you reading about it, maybe identifying with aspects of it and hopefully being inspired to get UNSTUCK.
