Work is just a part of life. Sometimes you might not like it, but it’s there. Whether you’re an entrepreneur starting up your own business or climbing the ladder of corporate America, deciding on your career is a powerful choice — and believe it or not, even if you think everything is going alright, you actually might be doing it wrong!
How? Keep listening!
Today on the His & Her Money Show, Ken Coleman is in the house! You might even know him as America’s career coach, and Ken is a national best-selling author and critically acclaimed host of The Ken Coleman Show.
He drops knowledge and wisdom on dream jobs, realizing our potential, and how and what we contribute to the world. We crossed paths with Ken for the first time at a Dave Ramsey event back in the day and we couldn’t be more excited to keep the conversation going at His & Her Money!
Just like Ken lays out in his book, THE PROXIMITY PRINCIPLE, everybody’s working somehow — but sometimes it’s not the right work for you. So, why are so many Americans stuck in jobs they’re unhappy in and unsure how to change things around?
In this episode, and in his book, Ken walks us through why we keep the jobs we hate and gives a deeper look into navigating sudden career changes, the importance of a strong mindset, the seven stages of meaningful work, and compartmentalizing our passions and talents to match ourselves with the work we SHOULD be doing.
Drawing from his own personal experiences, struggles, and triumphs to educate and inspire others, Ken drops nuggets of gold everywhere he goes, as well as practical advice and exercises to broaden your mindset and open yourself up to whatever opportunities life throws at you.
He’s all about seizing your purpose to put good out into the world. After hearing all this, you’ll be one step closer to figuring out your true potential. Moreover, you’ll be able to pivot towards finding the career path that’s right for you!
