When you first finish high school, it’s common to feel the need to go and make something of your life right away. University is the obvious and most logical choice, so you go ahead and start a degree without really thinking about what it is you want to do, or what your true passion is.You finish the degree, get the job and start climbing the corporate ladder. Before you know it, years have passed and you’ve landed a cushy job, you’re on a great income, but you feel desperately lost inside. You realise that if you don’t do something now, you’ll get too comfortable and might never take the time to figure out what you’re truly called to do.
Our guest today Lindsay Alive, had this very realisation. She had the high paying job, corporate office, meeting KPI’s and kicking career goals. But one day she realised that this job, this office, and this lifestyle wasn’t for her. She needed to get out, get back to her roots and explore the inner wild and free child that she knew was within.
Lindsay left her predictable, stable job to travel around the world. She discovered transformational leadership coaching when it was still in its infancy in North America and, after several years of intensive training, she launched one of the first coaching companies in Canada which is known today as Alive and Awake.
