Seeing Differently with Kristin Smedley
This week on TBOA, Rochelle and I talk to guest Kristin Smedley about what happens when the big plans you make don’t—and can’t—happen the way you imagined.
Talking Points
What happens when you get so attached to a specific outcome that you become blind to other possibilities?
How to get to those epiphany moments that will open you up to experience a break-through.
Building resilience by looking to your past experiences and applying your existing learning.
How to find the tools, resources and role models to create extraordinary outcomes, even when the deck is stacked against you.
Using serendipity to push your agenda forward (and the plus side of a coffee addiction).
The benefits of getting engaged in your various communities across geographies.
