What do you do when it feels like life is coming at you like a lightning bolt?

Run for cover, duck?  Not at Architecting.  Here we face that bolt head on and redirect it to further our purpose and use all that energy to make the difference we came here to make already. This episode was a good one because I literally feel the energy run through me most weeks and I really wanted to share a few biggie insights:

1. Receiving is restorative.  When you say yes to that fast moving high powered opportunity instead of overthinking it or shrinking away, you become energized. No one ever felt overwhelmed living their purpose.
   

Did this episode speak to you?  Would you like to continue working to build your power around your life's purpose? I'm offering a special Lightning Session opportunity to the podcast community. This special offer includes a 30 minute  one on one call with me, a guided meditation to help you clarify and destress, and a feng shui MP3 to help your home and work offices enrich your personal power and effectiveness in your career. All this is just one click away for $97. Just go to b.link/lightning

Ever wanted to feel like you own it as an architect?  True leadership is more than acquiring expertise, it’s having a point of view around that knowledge that you advocate around.

Newsflash: you cannot ever get there unless you are so deeply connected with your why that you bring it.  Every day. On every project, In every way you live your life.  You have to be committed, which means you are also authentic.  I think we all can smell the bullshit of someone playing at thought leadership.  If you're looking to take things beyond the next paycheck and really start evolving as an architect, you need to hear this episode.

We'll cover:

1. Get super clear on the difference between competency, interests and thought leadership

Do you feel you have to make hard choices between things that are of equal importance?

Like work and family, professional development and meeting a deadline, your project or your sanity, or even whether to stay or go from your current job? I’m sharing some real life examples from architects who went into the sad zone thinking they needed to endure some kind of compromise in their desire to do the right thing.  These are common mistakes so many of us make at different points in our career.  But today, I’m going to show you how to fix them. 

We'll cover:

1. How either/or thinking is an illusion
