Kristen Zavo - Finding Fulfillment in Work and Life

Like many people, Kristen Zavo climbed the corporate ladder and achieved success in her career, but even with all she had achieved, she found herself deeply unhappy at work. After switching jobs, she found more and more people asking her how she did it, so she began helping them make the same switch on the side of her corporate job. After walking the talk by taking her own advice, Kristen authored an international best-selling book, Job Joy, to help others find success and meaning in their careers. Her incredible journey led her to the work she does today in her business, Find Your Job Joy, as a holistic career coach helping high achievers who desire more impact and fulfillment at work and in life.In this episode, Kristen talks about the path she took from decades of working in a variety of corporate roles to becoming a business owner, the impact she believes the pandemic has had on work, the recent rise of entrepreneurship, and the shift employers must now make to retain talent. As a holistic career coach, Kristen describes the approach she takes with her clients, why it’s important to choose the life you want before choosing a career,  creating a story to market yourself to potential job or business opportunities, and the importance of personal branding for employees and what to watch out for.Kristen details how she actually made the transition out of corporate life and into entrepreneurship, the one area she had to get good at to grow her business, what it was like to bet on herself and make “scary investments” in her business, and the one thing she’s learned that she would tell her younger self.Finally, Kristen talks about what’s next for her, how she’s incorporating somatic work into her services, how she’s growing the corporate side of her business, and what she thinks is the big lie in the online business world.Find KRISTEN  at:Website: www.findyourjobjoy.comTik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@findyourjobjoyInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kristenzavo/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/kristenjzavoTwitter: https://twitter.com/kristenzavoVisit Stephanie at: https://stephaniehayes.biz/Follow me on Instagram | Facebook | LinkedIn | TwitterSupport the show
