EP 150: Regain Control Over Your Life & Career

The Bridge to Fulfillment

It was another record month for the Great Resignation. In November 2021, over four and a half million people quit their jobs.

What’s happening in the workforce today, and what does it all mean for the workforce of tomorrow?

Today, Blake shares her observations of the changes she’s witnessed in the workforce through the pandemic. She shares how she’s seen a greater understanding when it comes to career satisfaction and work-life balance when employees recognize that having more control over their lives is possible. Rather than getting stuck in the same place over and over again, she encourages you to use this unique moment as an invitation to create the change you want by seeking a more focused direction in your life and career.

The time to invest in yourself and your happiness is NOW.

Favorite Quotes:

1. If you're one of the people who have recently quit their job, you're considering quitting your job, or you're really unfulfilled in your job and you're wondering if there's anything better for you, there's tremendous opportunity and more possibility for your life than you could even imagine.
2. It's not just understanding your specific skills. It's understanding the combination of those skills, plus your experiences, your unique lens or perspective on life, and then your natural way of creating results. It's the combination of all of those things that really create your unique fingerprint for success.
3. What I've seen over the pandemic is a real understanding of employees having more control of their lives, understanding the importance and the shift it makes when you have better work-life balance, when you can be more involved with your family, and when you can have some choice and some decision making about what your career and your life look like.
