Pivot on Purpose episodes

  • Interview with MIddle School Librarian and Writer Jean Stehle

    A juicy, packed conversation with one of my very favorite ever co-workers, Jean Stehle.

    Jean is currently a middle school librarian who has a gift and passion for connecting readers with the right books. In this episode, she takes us along on her various stops along the way and shares what happens when you begin working in the career you thought you always wanted but realize the environment doesn't match your value system. 

    We discuss so many issues including:
    * Slowing down to speed up
    * What stops us from following our intuition
    * What our brains do to us when we're on the edge of growth and expansion
    * The benefits and power of coaching
    * Motherhood and toxic positivity
    * Great advice about what to do next if you know you're ready to make a change but are scared.

    p.s. The quote I refer to that my daughter wrote on our Schedwall (see Amazon shop link below) is actually "We rise by lifting others." How awesome is that?!

  • Pick up the call when intuition is on the line

    Get ready for a truth-telling episode about trusting your intution and how to even listen in to it in the first place!

    We are all born with an innate ability to know what is important to us, our own best directions in life that will lead us toward greater well-being and a more fulfilling existence; ie, YOU know deep inside what’s best for you.  But life and well-meaning people chip away at this over time

    I talk about what intuition is, how we can get in better touch with it and actually start listening to it.

    I also give some example of life-changing moments in my life in which I've trusted and followed my intuition and when I have not.  

    I can't wait to hear what you think of this one!

  • Interview with School Counselor Cory McGann

    Today we have guest Cory McGann who was the friend who said to me "Why Not Now" when I said I wanted to be a teacher 20+ years ago.  See episode #1 for the full story of this pivotal moment in my career journey. 

    Cory drops so many good nuggets about how he helps high school students and their families navigate post-high school life.  We talk about listening to your intuition, leaning on supporters, our mind gremlins that get in our way, why it's so hard to pivot, and so much more. 

    Connect with Cory to learn more about his work on Instagram @yournextfour or his web site https://www.yournextfour.com/

  • Ask yourself THIS QUESTION before making a change

    In this episode, I share one very important question you need to get clear on before making a change of any kind, particularly when it comes to your career.  The way you answer this question will tell you everything you need to know about the type of energy you're bringing with you to your move! 

    I have a few spots open for 1:1 coaching to help you get clear and be super confident in your next career pivot (hint: sometimes this will also look like you staying where you are with an upgraded mindset!).  Schedule a no-strings-attached call with me here.

  • Why Not Now?

    The Pivot on Purpose Podcast is full of inspiring stories and mindset tools for those of you who feel stuck in a career or job that you just don’t feel fired up for (at least not anymore).  You have a little voice inside that tells you it’s time to make a change but something is stopping you.  

    Each week, you'll find a new episode which will either be an inspiring interview or a solo episode sharing more of my story and the mindset tools you can use to evolve your own career story. 

    Not only will you gain inspiration from others’ stories, you’ll also gain actual mindset tools to help you find your true north and take those next steps to pivot on purpose.  Career fulfillment and feeling good in your work is not only possible for you, it is your right.  

    In this kickoff episode, I share part of my career pivot story and the question I was asked that really got the ball rolling - why not now? 

    My hope is that you will see examples of what's possible through others' stories and begin to answer the question "why not now" in your own unique way that reflects your personal values and vision.
