Debating Making a Change You’re Not Really Passionate About? You DON’T Need to Compromise — Featuring Kerry, Winner of the Gift of Clarity

Ep: 100

When is a good change not a good change? When we’re in a situation where we aren’t fulfilled or reaching our potential, any shift might feel like a step in the right direction. But the moves that truly put you where you need to be do not have to involve a compromise of your values or desires.

On this episode of The Bridge to Fulfillment, Blake and Kerry dive deep on Kerry’s story, from losing her position due to COVID to sorting out what her ideal career situation would look and feel like moving forward, the contrast between moments that made Kerry feel capable and fulfilled vs. the realization that her current industry no longer serves her (plus the first step towards solving that problem), and how Kerry plans to move forward with her newfound clarity. Listen in for a milestone episode that may just speak to where you stand in your career – and give you some valuable action steps to take you towards your ideal situation.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How a set of voicemails from her family keeps Kerry grounded in the parts of her life that matter most – and how to keep perspective when your career begins to seep outside its boundaries
  • What makes Kerry a uniquely valuable leader and teammate in business, and the ways those secret sauce transferable skills will help her find a more fulfilling career fit
  • Why we compromise on our vision of the life we desire (and why the compromise is not as necessary as we think)
  • And much more!

Favorite Quote:

“The biggest ‘aha’ was probably knowing that, where I used to have the confidence of knowing that I could convey my value, that I need to really re-zhuzh that a little bit. I could give you my elevator speech in a heartbeat, and now that needs to be completely re-curated. And, you know, realizing that I can’t lean so much on… the familiarity of how I’ve always done things in the past. I have to really look at things with a different lens.” —Kerry
