EP 159: A Surprise Gift: Turning Job Search Dread into Joy & Peace (Sandra’s Story)

The Bridge to Fulfillment

Asking for help isn’t always easy. But when you’re stuck in a job that doesn’t motivate or excite you, getting out of that rut requires looking at your skillset a bit differently and gaining a better understanding of what you’re truly looking for from a company. A fresh perspective can make all the difference.

Today, Blake welcomes Sandra to the show to share her story. When Sandra first reached out, she knew she was ready for a change, but the dread of the job search had her feeling stuck and unmotivated. Sandra was able to leverage the support of Blake and her team to really understand the scope and breadth of what was possible when she equipped herself with more resources.

You’ll hear how Sandra’s job search went from dreadful to joyful as she learned how to confidently ask for what she wanted and needed without fear or hesitation. In a few short months, Sandra has gained confidence and invaluable skills that now make her a better, more effective communicator. Not only did she have life-changing “aha” moments, but she truly enjoyed the process— which led her to discover a few other unexpected gifts along the way.
