What I cover in this episode of KD's Journey: What you should consider when researching potential employers Separating the “nice-to-haves” versus the necessities My own sour work experience Thinking strategically of your goals, short-term and long-term Fresh out of college, I was on the hunt for a job that would put my degree to work. I got exactly what I wanted and landed in a job that didn't align with my values at all. I settled and opened myself up to a sour work experience. What did I do? I quit without having a backup. I bartended for a while and found a side of myself I didn't know existed. It's as though I needed to make that change and experience the harsh realities of life to find who I wanted to be and what goals I should craft to get me there.

What I cover in this Episode of KD's Journey: The power of saying less Seeking out the most powerful person in the room Learning more about why you may talk a little too much Knowing when you need to reset and recharge The most quiet person in the room holds the most power. I've really taken a good look at how I communicate and I've found some frustration on the subject of just saying way too much. Anthony Mucurio and I call it "fire hosing" when you just continue talking on and on, stringing together sentences that really stop making sense after awhile. Could you have said something in 1 minute instead of 20 minutes? Are you listening when the other person speaks? Do you talk OVER your friends or frequently cut people off?

I met Sarah Crowley at a GoRuck Basic event back in March. Since then, Sarah and I have found a variety of similarities between ourselves and the lives we live. Sarah, also the host of her own Podcast, Tombabe, encapsulates what it means to find a balance of both the masculine and feminine energies. In addition to sharing her journey on exploring what these energies are and how to best channel them, Sarah also discusses the confusion brought on in a life after college athletics. Having gone to a Division I lacrosse school, University of Massachusetts - Amherst, Sarah endured the ups and downs of college athletics and the intensity of playing at a higher level. Sarah then went on to play professional lacrosse in the year following her graduation from UMass Amherst.

Let me answer some questions you might have before listening, here in the show notes. Why Listen? You will gain an understanding of what David Brooks calls "The Valley" and what it means to be on the "Second Mountain" of life. I've taken these insights and applied them to my own life, in hopes that you are able to do the same. You can purchase his book, here. Topics Covered? Understanding what "The Valley" is Identifying the process of realizing if you're in The Valley or not Discussing the purpose of life and the Telos Crisis The Valley on an Individual Level and on a Societal Level Four Social Crises: Loneliness, Distrust, Meaning, Tribalism Recognizing the good that comes out of The Valley Any Actionable Takeaways? Ted Hughes once said that we often find that the worst moments to undergo, are some of the best moments to remember. Keep in mind that if you're in the valley, or haven't experienced it yet, that it's happening for a reason - you're strong enough to handle it - and you'll grow in the process.

Listen to Episode #06 of KD's Journey if you're interested in learning about how to navigate people in your life that are intentionally helpless. So what do I mean by intentional helplessness? Let's say your company is transitioning to a new platform, Outreach.io is a perfect example. With the switch to a newer prospecting platform, some teammates aren't as eager to learn it, let alone change up their processes. After months of meetings and discussions, no one is showing any interest in adoption. Being intentionally helpless then prompts comments like: "I don't know how", "It's different", "I don't understand it", "It won't work". These comments are clear indicators that not only is that person unwilling to try their best or put any effort into understanding the platform for themselves. The intentionally helpless might even ask others around them for help, when the answer is something that could've been easily found on their own. What else comes into play here? How do you help the intentionally helpless to become more curious and eager? Well, you'll have to listen to find out. I take a deep dive into what it means to be intentionally helpless, how to create leverage by identifying skills you're really good at, and how to use your leverage to reach further success in your journey.
