What’s on your mind, unicorn? 🦄 Send me a text!

I can’t wait for you to hear this conversation with Matt Bragstad,  a mentor and source of inspiration during my own career transition. Matt is one of those people who lights up a room, and after every conversation I have with him, I feel like I can conquer the world. He’s had such a unique career path, having used his own strengths to traverse the structured, rigid corporate world with a seemingly magical ease. Some call him the caffeinated unicorn, and you’re about to hear why. 

Enjoy this episode, and be sure to check out the takeaways:

• Find every opportunity to overachieve.
• Find mentors - both people you like and people you don’t like.
• Be okay with making mistakes.
• Find your own secret sauce and start finding ways to share it.
• When you start to run out of gas, stop and go get inspired.
• Stop wasting your creative energy writing stories that aren’t true.
• Find people who give you energy and connect with them.

Matt’s book list:

• The Four Agreements: A Practical Guide to Personal Freedom, by Don Miguel Ruiz
• StrengthsFinder 2.0, by Tom Rath
• The Slight Edge, by Jeff Olson
• Leadership and Self Deception, by Arbinger Institute 
• Orbiting the Giant Hairball: A Corporate Fool's Guide to Surviving with Grace, by Gordon MacKenzie
