Podcasts about great resignation

Risa Ryan, CEO and founder of The UnRetire Group. Unretire Your Workforce: How Companies Can Thrive by Hiring Retirees. -During COVID, the workforce experienced the “Great Resignation,” a mass exodus of workers, particularly those aged 55 and older. Many left industries like insurance for good, feeling financially secure or simply unwilling to return to long commutes and rigid office schedules. Now, we're seeing that movement again: the beginning of the "Silver Tsunami" — a tidal wave of retirements reshaping the labor force and leaving companies struggling to replace decades of accumulated knowledge and expertise.

You may remember that we talked about the Great Resignation a little while back on Do You Really Know. The trend saw millions of workers across the US quit their jobs in 2021 and 2022 in particular, with a similar pattern being seen in other Western countries too. Well it might have seemed like a great idea at the time for a lot of those resignees, but it hasn't been all rosy for some of them since. A 2023 survey by American HR solutions provider Paychex suggested that as many as 80% of workers who quit during the Great Resignation already regretted their decision to do so. There's always a good reason for having left a job though, isn't there? Surely, it's better to leave the past in the past?! Is the boomeranging trend really that common? What do employers stand to gain from taking back boomerang employees? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions! To listen to the last episodes, you can click here: What is auto-brewery syndrome?

Creating Thriving Work Environments Eric and I dove into the essentials of workplace culture, a topic central to our careers. Eric shared his journey from a childhood fascination with business to leading large teams at Enterprise Rent-a-Car. His book on company culture and high performance has become a key resource for his speaking and consulting work. We explored what it takes to create work environments where employees don't just survive—they thrive. It all starts with strong relationships, clear communication, and understanding the diverse needs of a multigenerational workforce. Setting clear expectations is critical, especially in today's workplace, where retention is a growing challenge. When organizations prioritize culture and communication, they see stronger engagement and long-term success. Effective Communication and Planning for Success Our discussion also highlighted the role of communication and strategic planning in driving results. I shared a case from my time at Mercedes-Benz, where we implemented an asset-tracking system to streamline operations. The key takeaway? Getting things right the first time prevents unnecessary work and improves efficiency. Eric echoed this with his experience launching a content initiative for sales, emphasizing the importance of a steady, intentional approach to culture-building. We also tackled a critical hiring insight—focusing on a candidate's match rather than just their fit within an organization. Engaged employees who align with company values will consistently outperform those who check the right boxes. His book profoundly covers these themes, offering practical strategies for building high-performing teams. Hiring for Potential and Career Growth One story that stood out was hiring a receptionist without prior healthcare experience. Over time, she thrived, earned a promotion, and eventually ran a clinic. It reinforced the idea that hiring should be about potential rather than just experience. Eric and I agreed that asking the right questions during hiring is essential in identifying high-potential candidates. Too often, employers focus on filling a position quickly rather than considering a candidate's long-term career trajectory. Investing in people's growth benefits both the individual and the organization. Connecting Beyond the Conversation We wrapped up by discussing ways to keep the conversation going and share the episode when it's live. If you're interested in Eric's work, you can find him on LinkedIn or at ClearPathVentures.com, where he offers speaking and coaching on leadership and company culture. ERIC D. Stone's passion for business led him to an influential twenty-six-year career at the iconic rental car company Enterprise Holdings, where he quickly became one of the most decorated Regional Vice Presidents in the company's history. His ability to connect and motivate employees from all different generations and demographics allowed his teams to sustain top-level results and a culture of pride. Eric attributes much of his success to his ability to create, ignite, and sustain a high-performance culture—one that enabled him to lead his teams through challenges like 9/11, the Great Recession, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Great Resignation—along with an extraordinary ability to adapt to the unexpected and help others do the same. Eric is the author of the award-winning book Jumpstart Your Workplace Culture and an international speaker on leadership, employee engagement, and creating high-performance organizations. He retired from Enterprise in 2018 and founded Clear Path Ventures, which specializes in guiding young professionals and businesses as they navigate their path to success.

Leading with Heart: Five Conversations That Unlock Creativity, Purpose, and Results by John Baird, Edward Sullivan Amazon.com As we reach the peak of the Great Resignation, two veteran executive coaches help today's leaders learn how to retain and inspire their teams through the one thing their research has found works: LEADING with HEART. In these pages, leadership coaches John Baird and Edward Sullivan share hundreds of hours of research and firsthand accounts of guiding leaders at some of the world's most respected big brands and small startups (Apple, Nike, Google, Slack to name a few). Through their coaching and research they uncovered the 5 behaviors transformative leaders engage in to connect authentically with their teams: They are aware of their people's needs. They help their people to confront the fears that hold them back. They understand their own desires & what drives their people. They leverage their unique gifts & help people find their own. They connect with their core sense of purpose & help people find theirs. The key to achieving these behaviors is asking the right questions and having conversations that connect you and your employees on the deepest human level--conversations the authors coach you on how to navigate. At a time when workplaces are struggling to build high-morale and connected cultures, LEADING with HEART will help leaders to unlock the best version of themselves and those around them with transformative results. No matter where you are in your career, this book is your launch point to leading with heart. By encouraging you to ignore outdated "leadership hacks" and embrace introspection and growth, Leading with Heart guides you to ask the right questions and find your own answers. Now you too can create a leadership game-plan that is authentic to you and brings out the best in those around you. About the author Edward Sullivan is the CEO & Managing Partner at Velocity Coaching. His 25-year career as an executive coach and political consultant has taken him around the globe coaching and advising start-up founders, Fortune 500 executives, and heads of state of foreign nations.

Welcome to episode #977 of Six Pixels of Separation - The ThinkersOne Podcast. Dan Heath is a frequent and always welcome guest on this show, and with good reason - few people have done more to translate complex human behavior and organizational dynamics into smart, actionable insights. You probably know Dan as the co-author (with his brother Chip Heath) of some of the most beloved and bestselling business books of the past two decades, including Made To Stick, Switch, Decisive, and The Power of Moments. His work has reshaped the way leaders think about communication, decision-making, change, and the emotional beats that define experience. With his latest solo book, Reset - How To Change What's Not Working, Dan continues this tradition - offering a practical framework for identifying leverage points that can unlock real transformation, even in systems that feel stuck or bloated by inertia. In this conversation, we dug into why momentum beats speed, how progress (not perfection) is the most powerful motivator in the workplace, and why so many leaders miss the mark by focusing on customer experience while overlooking the employee experience. We also talk about the role of self-doubt, the necessity of feedback, and how the Great Resignation isn't just about quitting - it's about a systemic failure to reimagine work. Dan's signature mix of rigorous research, compelling storytelling, and approachable wisdom is on full display here. You should also check out his podcast, What It's Like To Be…. If you've ever wondered why change efforts stall - or how to get unstuck with the same people and resources - this one's for you. Enjoy the conversation... Running time: 56:48.

Remuneration and incentives have always been a Pandora's box for law firm leaders. In the post-pandemic climate, however, in which employee values have shifted, the equation has become trickier. In this episode of The Lawyers Weekly Show (produced by HR Leader), host Jerome Doraisamy speaks with TalentCode HR founder and managing director Trudy MacDonald about the difficulties firm leaders have long had with implementing successful remuneration and incentive strategies, how COVID-19 spawned a shift in employee thinking around work/life balance, the Great Exhaustion and its implications, the impact of resenteeism, and how difficult it is for employers to cater to idiosyncratic needs of all staff. MacDonald also reflects on whether employees are staying put right now (following the Great Resignation), employee disgruntlement amid high inflation and a cost-of-living crisis, how the latest WGEA data might impact employee thinking, the steps that HR professionals and C-suite executives need to take, measuring success, and the folly of viewing remuneration as an isolated issue.

Adam shared his background in the corporate world and his transition into leadership consulting, citing his realization that he couldn't sustain his current pace and needed to build stronger teams. The conversation was described as organic and conversational, with Michael planning to sprinkle in topics about retention and culture. The meeting was expected to last about 20-25 minutes. Transitioning From Individual to Leader Adam and Michael discussed their personal journeys and the challenges of transitioning from individual contributors to team leaders. Adam shared his realization that he had been putting himself at the center of every decision, rather than empowering his team. He emphasized the importance of building trust and understanding that leadership involves delegating tasks and empowering others. Michael agreed, noting that many leaders struggle with this transition due to a lack of training and support. Both agreed that this shift in mindset and approach is crucial for effective leadership. Leadership, Trust, and Employee Retention Michael and Adam discussed the importance of leadership and trust in retaining employees and achieving success in organizations. Michael emphasized the need for leaders to understand their teams and provide them with the necessary tools and support to excel. He also highlighted the significance of having a strong operations leader who can see the big picture and make informed decisions.

The discussion concluded with a light-hearted reference to the upcoming Super Bowl. Employee Retention and Economic Uncertainty Michael and Adam discussed the importance of retention in organizations. Michael emphasized the need for action beyond just caring for employees, and highlighted the role of trust, communication, and empowering employees to be their best. Adam shared a Gallup statistic indicating that the number of employees looking to leave their jobs is still high, suggesting that companies are not yet fully recovered from the Great Resignation. He also expressed his opinion that companies are still cautious about posting roles due to economic uncertainty. The conversation ended with a sense of anticipation for potential future challenges in employee retention. Hybrid Work Models and Employee Trust Adam and Michael discussed the challenges organizations face in determining their hybrid work model. They agreed that organizations must be clear and consistent in their messaging about whether they are in-office, remote, or hybrid. They also highlighted the importance of avoiding hypocrisy in leadership, as it can erode trust and create resentment among employees. Michael further emphasized the need for organizations to consider their employees' financial well-being, as financial stress can lead to high attrition rates. Adam concluded by stressing the importance of organizations figuring out who they are and being consistent in their approach to work models. Building Trust and Employee Growth Adam discussed the importance of trust in organizations, emphasizing that it cannot be forced but rather earned through traits like empathy, authenticity, and logic. He highlighted the significance of understanding employees' needs, such as income stability and growth, and validating their feelings. Adam also stressed the importance of promoting employees based on their readiness and development of necessary skills, rather than just granting raises or promotions. He concluded by emphasizing the need for leaders to invest in their employees' growth and future opportunities. Investing in Employee Development for Retention Adam and Michael discussed the importance of investing in employee development to improve retention rates. Adam emphasized that simply offering more money when requested is not a sustainable solution. Michael used the analogy of Christmas presents to illustrate how short-lived the satisfaction from a salary increase can be. They agreed that investing in employees' professional development, such as pairing them with mentors and working on projects, can lead to better prepared and skilled employees who are more likely to stay with the organization. Adam also shared his personal experience of having a successful team member who was offered a promotion elsewhere, but chose to stay due to the opportunities provided by the organization. Work Culture's Impact on Retention Adam and Michael discussed the importance of a supportive work culture and the impact it has on employee retention. Adam shared his personal experience of choosing to stay in a company he loves over a potentially lucrative offer elsewhere, emphasizing the value of a positive work environment. Michael echoed this sentiment, recalling his own experiences during the dot-com era and the importance of finding a company that offers growth opportunities. They concluded the conversation by discussing how to find more information about Adam's work and his company, The Tenacious Operator. Addressing Debt and Retention Challenges Adam and Michael discussed the challenges faced by many Americans due to high levels of debt and the subsequent impact on their quality of life. Michael highlighted the importance of retention in organizations, as poor retention can lead to a decline in product and service quality. They also discussed the difficulties faced by certain industries, such as grain elevators and health insurance underwriters, in attracting and retaining younger generations.

In this podcast episode, Dr. Jonathan H. Westover talks with with Eric Stone about building and measuring a high performance culture in the workplace. Eric Stone's passion for business led him to an influential twenty-six-year career at the iconic rental car company Enterprise Holdings, where he quickly became one of the most decorated Regional Vice Presidents in the company's history. His ability to connect and motivate employees from all different generations and demographics allowed his teams to sustain top-level results and a culture of pride. Eric attributes much of this success to his ability to create, ignite, and sustain a high-performance culture—one that enabled him to lead his teams through challenges like 9/11, the Great Recession, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the Great Resignation—along with an extraordinary ability to adapt to the unexpected and help others do the same.

Adam Galinsky is a social psychologist and a Professor of Leadership and Ethics at Columbia Business School. He has published over two hundred scientific articles on leadership, negotiations, diversity, and ethics. He has been a damages expert in numerous defamation lawsuits that have generated more than $1 billion in verdicts and settlements, including Dominion Voting Systems v. Fox News.  His latest book is titled: Inspire: The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others.   Some interesting insights from this episode: ·         The leader amplification effect suggests that when we're in a position of leadership, all of our words and expressions get amplified, both the positive and negative ones. ·         There are three universal factors to inspiring leadership: being a visionary, being an exemplar, and being a mentor.  ·         Inspiring and infuriating leaders are mirror images of each other and exist on opposite ends of a continuum so based on the situation an inspiring leader one day can become an infuriating one the next. ·         Leaders are made, not born, and anyone has the tools to become more inspiring no matter their starting point. ·        The Great Resignation, where 30 million Americans quit their jobs during the pandemic, wasn't just about where we work but why we work. This “universal midlife crisis” was less about pay and much more about meaning and purpose and empowerment. ·         You can learn how to become more visionary by conveying an optimistic vision, keeping your message simple, and creating rich imagery.  ·         “Excellence is getting better at whatever you do on a day to day process.”   Notes Book: Inspire: The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others Personal website: Adam Galinsky

This week, and next week, we take a look back at the conversations we had over the past year, highlighting some of our happiest, smartest, funniest, and most difficult exchanges. We discuss topics such as whether the Great Resignation prompted business owners to overreact and overpay employees, whether the anxiety of owning a business ever subsides, what young couples should ask themselves before one of them starts a business, why owners find marketing so difficult, how owners can sell a business that just won't sell, and what keeps entrepreneurs going when the going gets really tough.There aren't many places where you can hear entrepreneurs talk about the real-life problems they are confronting right now, today, as they happen—with no guarantee of a happy ending. But those are the conversations I have every week with Paul Downs of Paul Downs Cabinetmakers, Shawn Busse of Kinesis, Jay Goltz of Artists Frame Service, Mel Gravely of Triversity Construction, Jennifer Kerhin of SB Expos & Events, Liz Picarazzi of Citibin, Jaci Russo of BrandRusso, Sarah Segal of Segal Communications, William Vanderbloemen of Vanderbloemen Search Group, and Laura Zander of Jimmy Beans Wool. They come from a wide range of industries and geographies and experiences, but they all share a willingness to talk about not just what they get right, but what they've learned from getting stuff wrong. If listening to one of these highlights makes you want to hear the full episode, that can be accomplished most easily by going to 21hats.com. There you'll find a transcript of this episode with links to all of the episodes we sample.

It seems there's quite a dichotomy in the technology workforce. On one hand I hear about the Great Resignation where many employees are leaving their jobs because of RTO (return to office) mandates or some other dissatisfaction with their job. On the other, I've seen quite a few people who were laid off and are struggling to find new positions. On the third hand, there is no shortage of companies who report they are struggling to find and hire talented people for some positions. I don't quite know what to think, but I do know that employment seems to be harder to come by. If you are looking for a job, I believe you need your own sustainable learning plan. If your organization can't find qualified talented staff, then the organization definitely needs a continuous learning plan. Read the rest of Continuous Learning

The modern workplace now contains an unprecedented five generations of workers, with very different ideas about leadership and the importance of authenticity. In the last few years we have experienced The Great Resignation, Quiet Quitting and the rise of employees at all levels leaving their 9 to 5 to start their own business, so clearly it's time for change. In this episode of ADHD-ish, I welcome returning guest Ruth Rathblott to discuss these challenges and the need for self-awareness and connection in the workplace. Many of us are hiding and others might be sharing too much. What are the rules and how do we know what to do if what we want is to feel safe, do our best work and experience genuine belonging? In this empowering episode, Ruth and I talk about the transformation that occurs when people start "unhiding"—openly sharing their stories and building stronger, more authentic connections. This mutual sharing not only creates a sense of belonging but can also significantly reduce feelings of isolation and burnout, issues all too common in the modern workplace.

In this episode of the Better Leadership Team Show, I speak with Joe Mull, employee engagement expert and author of Employalty: How to Ignite Commitment and Keep Top Talent in the New Age of Work. He also hosts the popular Boss Better Now podcast, which was recently named by SHRM as a “can't miss show for leaders,” along with podcasts from Brené Brown and Harvard Business Review.He shares insights on how to foster commitment and retain top talent in today's workforce by creating a humane employee experience. Discover why the "Great Resignation" is actually a "Great Upgrade," and learn about Joe's framework for building “destination workplaces” where employees feel valued and motivated. Key takeaways include the importance of psychological safety, the impact of flexible work options, and how trust is foundational to remote work success.https://www.joemull.comhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/joemull/ Thanks for listening!

Greetings and welcome to Scorpio season! I am pleased to connect with you from Bangkok and extend my warm regards. You may have noticed that I am using a new platform for this newsletter, complete with a refreshed design and format. I invite you to listen to the introduction on the latest podcast episode, where I share the inspiration behind these changes. For those who have been with me since 2020 or during the Soul Tending days, I would like to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for your continued support. Your openness to this new chapter is truly valued and appreciated.As we embrace the transformative energy of Scorpio season, I feel it's important to shift our focus from the usual thematic analyses to the key transits that can shed light on your unique natal chart and personal experiences. My goal is to offer compassionate guidance as we navigate the changes happening around us, all while honoring the path of your soul. For a deeper understanding of how these transits can aid you, I encourage you to tune in to the podcast. Below, I've included a short version of what I shared in this episode.Key Transits:SUN* Sun enters Scorpio, October 22: The Sun serves as a crucial source of light, illuminating both evident truths and the more nuanced aspects of our consciousness. Scorpio is associated with the exploration of intimacy by revealing psychological secrets or hidden wounds and traumas that may lead to suppressions and taboos. This transformative process can foster a deeper understanding of ourselves, which is foundational for forming meaningful and intimate one-on-one relationships. As the Sun transitions through Scorpio from October 22nd to November 20th, we are encouraged to recognize and address our emotional wounds and traumas. Engaging in this inner work can be challenging, but it also offers the potential for healing and personal growth, guiding us toward strength and resilience. You are not alone in this endeavor; this journey is about discovering light in even the most difficult moments alongside those we hold dear.* Sun in Scorpio opposite Uranus Rx in Taurus, November 16: This intense astrological aspect reflects a significant shift in the financial dynamics of our relationships, driven by larger global circumstances. We are navigating some profound changes with Pluto in Capricorn guiding the Sun in Scorpio and Venus in Capricorn influencing Uranus in Taurus. Saturn retrograde in Pisces is pivotal, steering both Pluto and Venus. Additionally, Neptune retrograde at 27° Pisces guides Saturn while forming a supportive sextile with Uranus at 25° Taurus and Pluto at 29° Capricorn. As most outer planets take a retrograde path, we are encouraged to slow down and communicate thoughtfully. This period asks us to act responsibly and engage only when it's truly necessary as we come together to envision a future marked by peace and prosperity.MOON* Scorpio New Moon, November 1st: The New Moon at 9° Scorpio unfolds at 5:47 am PDT, inviting us to explore our vulnerabilities and inner truths with compassion. Guided by Mars in Cancer, the Scorpio New Moon encourages us to reflect on how we might be unintentionally harming ourselves through actions driven by unhealthy emotional habits such as relying on substances, toxic relationships, or other false comforts. It's a powerful moment for transformation, allowing us to shift our approach to nurturing—moving away from defensiveness and towards sensitivity and gentleness. This New Moon forms a close trine with Saturn Rx in Pisces, emphasizing the importance of emotional resourcefulness. It reminds us that we can create deeper connections between our intimate relationships and our spiritual selves, fostering a nurturing environment for our hearts and souls.* Taurus Full Moon, November 15th: The Full Moon arrives as the Sun at 24° Scorpio opposes the Moon at 24° Taurus at 1:28 pm PST. This lunar phase brings a unique contrast between the peace-loving Taurus Moon and the emotionally intense Scorpio Sun. This opposition is particularly powerful, especially with the Sun also facing off with Uranus Rx in Taurus as the Moon forms a harmonious sextile with Neptune Rx in Pisces. This lunation marks the culmination of emotional experiences that began during the New Moon in Taurus six months ago, on May 7th.MERCURY* Mercury in Scorpio opposite Uranus Rx in Taurus, October 30: The messenger Mercury, in a heartfelt dialogue with the revolutionary Uranus at 25°, reflects a significant moment in our relationship. Their conversation mirrors the struggles many of us face—financial constraints that can lead us to explore deeper psychological patterns and have complex discussions about issues like economic inequality, which are magnified by the ongoing wars and climate change. As we navigate this challenging landscape, Mercury encourages us to engage in candid conversations about the root causes of poverty and to examine our scarcity mindsets.* Mercury enters Sagittarius, November 2: In Sagittarius, Mercury is farthest from its home sign, Gemini. This position may present challenges in fully expressing our communication and networking skills. There may be a tendency to become immersed in abstract philosophical concepts. It is essential to remain mentally grounded and focused through a practical mindset. However, Mercury in Sagittarius transit is an opportune time to integrate both mind and heart and engage with intuitive capabilities, fostering a balanced approach to navigate this period effectively. By harmonizing intuitive insights with rational thought processes, we can pursue healing, explore creative potential, and uncover deeper truths. Collectively, these measures can facilitate a productive path toward a greater understanding of ourselves and the world.VENUS* Venus in Sagittarius square Saturn Rx in Pisces, October 28: Venus makes significant aspects with the outer planets—Saturn, Jupiter, and Neptune from October 28th to November 9th. During this period, we may encounter valuable lessons regarding our connections. The square to Saturn on October 28th may present some challenges, urging us to align with values that genuinely support our physical and emotional well-being. These core values transcend lofty ideals, connecting instead to our sensory experiences. Engaging with simplicity and nature can help us navigate the myriad of choices, allowing our natural preferences to emerge more freely. Take a look at which house 12° - 27° Sagittarius occupies in your chart, as this area may require attention through the Saturnian practices of slowing down, simplifying, and approaching life with patience, practicality, and devotion.* Venus in Sagittarius opposite Jupiter Rx in Gemini, November 3: We might find ourselves facing relationship dynamics influenced by complex ideas that warrant careful examination. To foster clarity and avoid misunderstandings, it's essential to engage thoughtfully and avoid becoming entangled in negativity. Following this aspect, Venus will form a trine with Chiron Rx in Aries, creating an opportunity for healing through physical movement. If challenges in communication or relationships arise, consider taking moments throughout the day to refresh your mind through physical activity.* Venus in Sagittarius square Neptune Rx in Pisces, November 9th: This challenging aspect highlights the importance of mental respite through physical relaxation. Balancing our mental activities with nurturing both body and spirit is crucial. Cultivating a sense of inner nourishment allows us to express selfless love while maintaining healthy personal boundaries and self-care.* Venus enters Capricorn, November 11: This brief three-week transit highlights a significant shift in personal values influenced by the evolving political and financial landscape, marking the concluding phase of Pluto's sixteen-year journey through Capricorn. It symbolizes a transitional moment for an entire generation, as Pluto will not revisit Capricorn for the next 248 years. Consequently, it is an opportune time to embrace the lessons that Capricorn offers, particularly in areas related to Venus—such as business relationships, social and political discourses, and long-term partnerships.* Venus in Capricorn square North Node in Aries, November 14th: The square to the Node of Destiny presents an opportunity for Venus in Capricorn to transition from an emphasis on material values to a deeper consideration of what nourishes the soul. This shift is pivotal in moving beyond victimhood and scarcity mindsets, allowing us to take the lead in our own lives while inspiring others to pursue their individual paths. It is worth noting that some leaders may exhibit behaviors that reflect wounded masculine energy, often resorting to dramatic measures to express their frustrations. By cultivating self-awareness and fostering effective communication within our communities, we can collectively work towards manifesting our destinies rather than being influenced solely by external authority or popular opinion.MARS* Mars in Cancer opposite Pluto in Capricorn, November 3: Mars and Pluto are recognized as co-rulers of the deeply insightful sign of Scorpio. From October 2024 to January 2025, these two formidable planets find themselves in opposition, with Mars embodying courage and Pluto representing transformation. Notably, Mars will enter a retrograde phase from December 6 to February 23, 2025, culminating in another precise opposition to Pluto on January 2nd while retrograding in Leo. Before this extended interaction with Pluto, Mars will form a sextile with Uranus Rx in Taurus on October 24th, followed by a trine with Neptune Rx in Pisces on October 28th. These positive aspects can provide inspiration for creative solutions that enhance emotional security through innovative financial approaches and intuitive insights, positioning Mars in Cancer, the sensitive warrior, to navigate the lessons presented by Pluto.* Mars enters Leo, November 3: Following Mars' opposition to Pluto before sunrise, Mars transitions from Cancer to Leo at 8:09 PM PDT. This shift into Leo will be significant, as the duration of this transit is extended due to Mars retrograding back to 17° Cancer before resuming direct motion on February 24, 2025, and ultimately leaving Leo on April 18, 2025. During its extended stay in Cancer, Mars plays a vital role in helping us transform past emotional challenges into present-day psychological strength that bolsters our openheartedness and enthusiasm. The two-month period in Leo, from November 3rd to January 6, 2025, offers Mars a more uplifting experience and invites us to embrace creative joy by engaging in heartfelt and fun activities such as arts, hobbies, games, and romantic pursuits.JUPITER* Jupiter Rx in Gemini sextile Chiron Rx in Aries, November 2: As Jupiter moves through Gemini, it offers us a compassionate invitation to embrace change and pursue new opportunities for learning and connection. At the same time, Chiron reminds us to recognize any obstacles that may be draining our vitality and affecting our well-being. This meaningful interaction between Jupiter's adaptable energy and Chiron's healing presence, both in retrograde, encourages us to slow down and engage in a period of self-reflection. It's a perfect moment to take the time we need to fully process information before stepping forward with confidence. SATURN* Saturn stations direct, November 15: The wise grandfather Saturn, positioned in the spiritual realm of Pisces, serves as a gentle guide as we navigate the transformative energies of Pluto in Capricorn and Aquarius. In a time filled with rapid societal changes and technological advancements, it's vital to find spiritual steadfastness. Since Saturn went retrograde on June 29th, many of us may have felt a sense of heaviness and sluggishness over the past 5 1/2 months. The ongoing U.S. election season, along with the conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine, can leave us feeling caught in a collective impasse. This environment may heighten our sense of responsibility and lead to feelings of disconnection from our purpose, creating a struggle with motivation. For those who have been attuned to Saturn's call, the last few months have been a valuable time for conserving energy and nurturing the spirit through rest and exploration of dreams, all while handling worldly duties. As Saturn prepares to station direct on November 15th, there is a wonderful opportunity for renewing our commitment to self-mastery and spiritual growth.PLUTO* Pluto enters Aquarius, November 19: For the last 16 years, as Pluto has traversed Capricorn, we've witnessed a significant shift in our priorities. Many of us have moved away from a strong focus on career and personal achievement, and have begun to prioritize mental health and soul fulfillment. The Great Resignation, often viewed as a byproduct of the pandemic, connects astrologically to the 2020 Saturn-Pluto conjunction and took off in 2021. This global event has had a lasting impact, leading to collective job loss and career changes, giving many of us the space to pause and realign our lives. It's a chance to rethink our purposes and roles in society. Looking ahead, Pluto will be in Aquarius until January 2044, a sign that symbolizes humanism and scientific progression. This 20-year period offers a powerful opportunity for growth, as well as the challenge of navigating the new era and integrating our relationships with one another as innovative beings.I appreciate you taking the time to reflect on Scorpio season and embrace soul care with me.
