Welcome to Episode 44 of Building My Legacy.
In this podcast, business coach and author Sallie Holder shares with us how she moved from the “rock middle” as a successful employment attorney to her true passion: an entrepreneur who coaches others how to make the bold career choices that lead to lasting success and happiness. Sallie believes it’s never too late to create the change that can help you become the person you want to be. Today, as we look beyond the COVID-19 pandemic, her advice is more valuable than ever. It’s also essential for anyone looking to build your legacy.
So if you want to know:
- About the “rock middle” where you’re caught between your employer’s expectations, what you expect of yourself and a true sense of purpose and meaning
- Why you can’t apply the same framework you learned in the corporate world to the entrepreneurial world
- Why you shouldn’t waste energy allowing the pandemic to change your destination
- How “Sunday night planning” can help you focus on things that can move the needle on your revenue stream
