S1E3: What Is Success, Anyway?

In episode 3, Jill and Shelley discuss into how their definition of success has changed over the years. You’ll learn the importance of defining success on your own terms, along with embracing failure and overcoming imposter syndrome. This podcast is for you if you believe that: • Embracing a growth mindset and being brave enough to suck at something new is a must. • Fear should be acknowledged but shouldn’t stop you from doing epic shit! • It should be a “No” unless it’s a “Hell Yes!” • There’s more than enough for everyone. • Your energy will tell you where to go next. Listen and trust the process. • People are so much more than titles and the boxes others put them in.   The top three takeaways from this episode are: • Stop the comparison game. You have to define success on your own terms. • Beware of the arrival fallacy – that success is only achieved when you reach your goals. Enjoy the journey. • Your definition of success may change over time and should align with your values and aspirations.   Follow us on LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/shelley-sanchez/⁠ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/jill-johns-international/⁠ Special thanks to the amazing musician featured on our podcast, Brandi Harvey.
