Flow, Fulfillment, and Feeling Seen: Ari DeGrote on Unlocking Human Potential at Work
Ari DeGrote (see her bio below) was born because of a New Year’s resolution literally. And that origin story might explain a lot about her mission to help people make intentional, aligned choices that spark real change.
Ari believes everyone craves two things at work: meaning and mattering. As the founder of Upward & Inward and a human potential coach, Ari helps leaders and teams move beyond burnout and back into purpose by reconnecting with what makes them feel alive, aligned, and in flow. In this episode, she explains how tapping into a flow state, what many call “being in the zone,” can elevate performance, creativity, and connection. She shares how leaders can create cultures where transparency isn’t just encouraged but expected, and how fulfillment often starts by daring to create the job you wish existed.
From tackling complacency to reigniting collaboration, Ari’s work is grounded in the belief that people thrive when they feel truly seen and valued. Whether you're leading a team, redefining your role, or simply trying to get out of autopilot, this conversation is a call to pause, reflect, and take aligned action.
Get ready to rethink leadership, productivity, and what it means to show up at your best on purpose and in flow.
