Overcoming Fear of Irreversible Decisions with Carlotta Negri Di Sanfront — Part 1

from Time Billionaires: Mindset and Time Management for Work & Life · host Rebecca Shaddix

What if the traditional markers of success, job titles, team size, and climbing the corporate ladder, aren't actually what matter most?  In Part 1 of this two-part conversation of the Time Billionaires podcast, career coach and former Chief Product Officer Carlotta Negri Di Sanfront shares why ambitious professionals need to unlearn conventional definitions of success and replace them with values-aligned goals.  Rebecca and Carlotta explore the gap between what we say we value and how we actually spend our time, the chemical wiring behind risk-taking and bold career moves, and why being satisfied with "good enough" might be the most underrated skill in modern leadership.
