Episode 24 - Loving the Process Not the Goal with Guest Jess Ekstrom

In Episode 24 we are joined by guest Jess Ekstrom. We dig into how we attached our self-worth to our work. We discuss how to get back to loving the process of the work and not being so focused on the goal.    Jess Ekstrom is the founder and CEO of Headbands of Hope, a company that donates headbands to kids with illnesses with every headband sold. Headbands of Hope has been featured on the TODAY Show, Good Morning America, QVC, The View and worn by celebrities like Kelsea Ballerini and Khloe Kardashian. More importantly, Headbands of Hope has donated over 1 million headbands, reaching every single children's hospital in America and 22 countries.   After starting her company, she wanted to use her ups and her downs to help other women become valued as experts in their industry. In 2020, she started Prompted.io: a self-improvement platform delivering Prompt Pathways by world-renowned thought leaders.   Jess is also the bestselling author of Chasing the Bright Side and creator of online courses + communities for women to become paid keynote speakers and get book deals. Jess lives with her husband, Jake, and their 70 lb dog, Ollie. They just finished a 2-year adventure of living full-time in an Airstream.    You can connect with Jess more on Social Media: www.instagram.com/jess_ekstrom www.facebook.com/jessekstrom www.twitter.com/jess_ekstrom https://www.linkedin.com/in/jess-ekstrom-59160342/   Join Prompted.io with the code burnout for one month free!   Our recovery moment is a body scan to help ground us by using the contacts of our body.  Download your Free Burnout Recovery Reflection Journal here: https://bit.ly/FromBurnout-Recovery
