Episode 143 - Breaking Free from Career Unhappiness with Shannon Talbot
In this episode, I chat with Shannon Talbot - Author of Breaking Free: Stop Holding Back, Start Being You | Keynote Speaker | Performance Coach | The Happiness Expert.
Shannon shares her personal tale of self-sabotage born from a fear of success, a story so many of us can resonate with. We grapple with the question: Why do we lose our curiosity and fearlessness as we climb the ladder of life? This conversation takes us through the impact of societal pressures, the importance of trusting our intuition, and the roles gender dynamics play in how we tackle these fears.
But that's not all. Shannon walks us through her own transformative journey—a transformation that's comparable to a home renovation, messy but entirely necessary. She's here not just to narrate but to offer guidance, sharing insights from her book "Breaking Free" and prompting us to consider what we want to feel good about when looking back on our lives.
So, brace yourselves as we step into this empowering conversation, which will not only inspire but equip you to make those tough decisions and change the spaces that no longer serve you well. Let's get ready to break free from the chains of fear and step up into the life we deserve.
