EP 192: Now I Know How to Win (Lindsey’s Story)
Do you ever feel like you don’t fit in at work?
When you feel like one person at home, another with your friends, and yet another version of yourself when you’re at work, that could be a sign that your life and career aren’t in alignment.
Alignment feels like you’re among “your people.” You feel joyful and inspired like your creativity knows no bounds. Misalignment, on the other hand, can feel isolating.
Often, we allow limiting beliefs that we’ve carried throughout our lives to dictate how we see ourselves.
But, what if you were given the tools to change those limiting beliefs?
What if those unique traits you hide were the key to helping you find the kind of career that makes you feel alive…as though you were winning at life?
Today on The Bridge to Fulfillment, Blake welcomes Lindsey to the show. She shares how the program helped her detach from limiting beliefs about her ability to communicate and lean into her unique secret sauce transferable skills. Her communication style and creativity have since become her driving force, connecting her to people who inspire joy and spark curiosity in her work life.
In this episode, you’ll learn how Lindsey uncovered her secret sauce transferable skills, and how those skills have taught her how to win in life. After decades of feeling like she didn’t fit the corporate mold, she's now been able to find a role that allows her to be herself at work. That ability to be authentic has been a game-changer in her quest to find alignment in her life and career.
