When faced with personal challenges, career disruption, or the current economic landscape, how does one remain confident and up to the challenge, and call on their “better selves?”

Taking a personal inventory of one’s “Accomplishments,” personal and professional, can instill a sense of inner calm and confidence when faced with new challenges.

This week we talk with Mary Connelly, who shares her process for taking a personal inventory of accomplishments which elicits a remembrance of individual courage -tapping into a memory of success that often gets forgotten with each new challenge as vulnerability sets in.
