Listen Later

Are you considering making a pivot in life or business? Do you want to create more time freedom to travel and focus on the things you love?

Jenny Blake is a podcaster and author of three award-winning books, including Pivot and Free Time, and the newsletters #PivotList and Time Well Spent. After working at Google for five years in coaching and career development, she now utilizes her skillset to help people move from friction to flow and make changes in their lives that give them more freedom. 

This episode is packed with advice on tackling pivots from both a mindset and practical perspective to create a life that aligns with your goals and values. Jenny shares how to identify when it’s time to pivot, what you can do to start taking action without all of the pressure, how to balance listening to your intuition with making “smart decisions,” and much more.
