SPARKED

How to bring a Writing Passion Project to Life


Listen Later

Every week on the SPARKED podcast, we invite a listener to share what’s going on in their work & life, then pose a specific question to Jonathan Fields and a rotating lineup of wise and kind mentors -  the SPARKED Braintrust. 

In today’s episode we’re in conversation with:

SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Cynthia Morris | Website

Cynthia is the founder of the Original Impulse creative studio and atelier and coaching program for writers, she’s also an author, workshop facilitator, trusted advisor and coach.

LISTENER: Bree - Sparketype: Advisor/Sage, Anti: Essentialist

QUESTION: Listener Bree shares her story of experience of a role reversal with her partner, moving from full time parenting back into the workforce. And with that asks how do you combine multiple skills and passions? When you have a passion project, like writing books, calling to you, how do you balance that with a leadership role and overseeing big projects at work? Bree poses the query that many of us face, how do you approach tasks that you may be skilled at but no longer find them interesting?

YOUR HOST: Jonathan Fields

Jonathan is a dad, husband, award-winning author, multi-time founder, executive producer and host of the Good Life Project podcast, and co-host of SPARKED, too! He’s also the creator of an unusual tool that’s helped more than 650,000 people discover what kind of work makes them come alive - the Sparketype® Assessment, and author of the bestselling book, SPARKED.

So what is your Sparketype? Turns out, we all have a unique imprint for work that makes us come alive, this is your Sparketype. When you discover yours, everything, your entire work-life- and even parts of your personal life and relationships - begins to make sense. Until you know yours, you’re kind of fumbling in the dark.
