In this episode, I chat with Michael Bungay Stanier, bestselling author of The Coaching Habit and an expert in coaching and connection, about how to create a life that truly aligns with your potential. Michael shares powerful insights into setting “worthy goals”—those that are thrilling, important, and daunting—and how they can guide personal and professional reinvention.
We explore the difference between being good at something and feeling fulfilled by it, unpacking why self-awareness is key to setting meaningful goals. Michael also delves into the neuroscience behind connection, the courage it takes to embrace change, and how understanding identity plays a role in creating a life of purpose.
This conversation touches on navigating fear, reclaiming ambition as a tool for growth, and the transformative process of reinvention. Michael offers practical wisdom for letting go of old identities and embracing the discomfort of stepping into something new. Whether you're working toward a big goal, rethinking your ambitions, or longing for a fresh chapter, this episode will inspire you to trust the process and create a life that feels fully aligned with who you are becoming.
