For many people, the constant drive and focus on a goal can mean we spend years putting our all in to achieve it, only to eventually realise that time and development have changed us to a point where we no longer personally suit that goal.
What follows can be a period of frustration, confusion and ‘lostness’ as we try to find where we belong.
This was certainly the case for me.
When Ali Flynn, founder and host of the Challenges That Change Us podcast, reached out, I was glad to be able to share some of my journey and the lessons along the way.
Below are the link and notes Ali has made about the episode.
You can listen here or on Apple.
I hope you find it useful.
