Have you ever paused to ponder what makes you feel alive? And, if so, how often are you actually doing those activities? If you're anything like the vast majority of people, you are probably just trying to survive most of the time. Making space for what makes you feel alive might be considered a luxury versus a necessity. Yet, without making space for self-understanding and intention, as Yogi Berra said, "If you don’t know where you’re going, you’ll end up somewhere else."
Our next guest on The Upshot Podcast is Chris Coward, a professional Master Certified Coach with over 20 years of experience in executive coaching, preceded by 10 years of leadership in social work. She owns Coaching to Fulfillment and is the VP of Coaching Services at Apollo Health, a company that combines medicine and technology to optimize cognition and reverse dementia.
Beyond her professional titles, Chris is a member of two rock bands and frequently travels to festivals. She is an avid outdoorswoman and skier. She makes time to mentor others and to pursue what lights her up on a weekly, if not daily, basis.
So, what does it take to live this way? And how might fear and boundaries aid in succeeding or sabotaging your intentions? If you say yes to what you really want, what do you have to say no to? (If you find a way to have it all without saying "no" to anything, let us know...) And this is often the real kicker - how do you even know what you want? The process starts with intentional life design.
Tune in to learn about how to create a life with intention, aligned with your values, vs. being blown by the wind and following the herd.
