“The idea of turning down a nationally televised speaking opportunity seemed crazy to me! And the more I listened, the more I realized Austin is really walking his talk.
He makes a great point about how we lose sight of why we’re working so hard. Yes, I want to fantastic career that I am not only proud of but that I am inspired by. But I also wan to be able to prioritize what’s important to me and have balance in my life.
Overall, I feel grateful to have listened to this podcast. It’s so easy to be myopic and over focused on career ambitions and lose sight of all the amazing things that feed and nourish us along the way. And if we have to pass up on an opportunity that excites us because other things take precedence, we can always find a way to pursue that at another time. I’m starting to think that there’s no such thing as a lost opportunity. But I’ve been conditioned to believe in that which I think is driving me to overwork and even burn out.”
