    In this show, Jodi Schafer, owner of HRM Services and co-founder of the PureReinvention Project, shares some amazing advice on how to make the jump from doing what's reliable and safe to what's untested and unknown. Jodi tells personal stories and drops plenty of wisdom bombs that will have you rethinking what fulfillment really means and where you're headed next. QUOTE IT “Opportunities came along and I said yes even though I was scared.” (3:02) “Sometimes you don’t realize you really were unsettled until you find yourself jumping toward something else.” (14:20) DIG IN Fast forward to about 8 minutes in to hear Mike ask Jodi for advice on how we can coach ourselves through the process when we take on something that we aren’t totally sure we can handle. At 12:05 Jodi talks about fulfillment, and the feeling of searching for something more. TAKEAWAYS 1 - Say yes to new opportunities and challenges even when you’re afraid or unsure of the outcome. 2 - If you find yourself still searching for something more, that means it’s time evaluate what’s next. 3 - Being unsettled is usually the first nudge to take a step toward change.  4 - Build an intimate network of support from those you trust the most. Those people will be the first to question the limits you’ve imposed on yourself and help you break free from them. 5 - It’s ok to change paths and go a different direction. When you stop being fulfilled by one thing, scan the horizon for something new that speaks to you.
