So many of us look at the world we live in, and wonder how we might make a bigger impact. After a decade in academic setting, with a focus on career advising and HR, today’s guest, Claire, is now a parent to two children at the beginning of their teen years, and a new leader in elected government. And, she’s proud of how she accomplished this, even in light of her Anti Performer impulse.
Jonathan & Karen discuss:
In today’s episode we’re in conversation with:
SPARKED BRAINTRUST ADVISOR: Karen Wright | Website
Karen is the founder of Parachute Executive Coaching, acclaimed executive coach, advisor to senior leaders for more than two-decades, and the author of two great books, The Accidental Alpha Woman and The Complete Executive.
LISTENER: Claire - Sparketype: Advisor/Essentialist | Performer
QUESTION: Listener Claire wants to devote herself to not just making a big impact on her community, but also being there for her family, exploring the development and launch of a communal housing project with a focus on the values of sustainability and simplicity, and reimagining how she might bring her vision and services to those in need, in a more egalitarian and equitable way. She’s deeply concerned about what she sees as the commoditization and consumerization of people and services.
And, she’s wondering, what’s really possible here? How can she affect the greatest change, in her community and her own and family’s lives? What decisions and models might help her figure out what to say yes and no to?
