This week, I want to discuss what has you stuck in professional or personal dissatisfaction.

I stayed stuck in a role that didn't align with my values, talents or strengths and I went home drained, frustrated and stressed everyday. My children suffered because they didn't have the mom they deserved. My finances suffered for it because I wasn't earning at the level of my true potential and my future employer suffered because they didn't have me in the role that I was best suited for where I could be a superior performer, getting the results they desperately needed.
