Travel awakens our senses and makes life vivid! In contrast to our daily lives, where habits and familiarity blunt our awareness, travel heightens our senses and makes us pay attention to new surroundings. If we are willing to look closely, we may see what has been hiding in plain sight: our emerging self!Our culture softens our edges by offering us comfort and security in trade for experimentation and purposeful risk-taking. Worse, we can believe the time for self-rediscovery or dramatic change is past, belonging only to those younger than us. Intentional travel, whether by armchair, hydrofoil, or caravan, demands active listening to the life around us and our inner response to it. What do you make of the fact that your hotel was overbooked, served only cold food, and was so noisy you couldn't sleep? Did those things impede your learning from the moment, or did they accentuate your appreciation of hospitality under duress, the delicious subtlety of Spanish tortilla, and the resurgence of your interest in meditation?Travel presents us with unpredictable, offbeat situations for which we need to improvise. In so doing, we are reacquainted with aspects of ourselves forgotten, misremembered, or rarely noticed. If we can look without initial judgment at our responses, we may see the learning inherent in those moments. Such learning can suggest a new synthesis of interests and skills or the stirring of insight into how our lives may be shifting.Lastly, travel can happen at home by using fresh eyes to see our days, by recording what we experience in journals, and by creating a process of inquiry that leads us to reflect on more life in a manner that extracts from our life story, the materials with which to create a move vivid future.

THROUGH A DIVINE LENS: Sue Frederick Every day we have an inner battle going on between two parts of ourselves: our ego and our soul. When we view the world through our ego lens, life can seem tragic, random, meaningless, and painful. When viewed from our soul's perspective, we find divine order and soul agreements in every event of our lives. Each of us has the power to uplift and inspire, to feel love and compassion, no matter how tragic our experiences may be. By viewing the world through your divine lens, you can reawaken to the wisdom and potential of your soul, see the opportunities behind suffering, and help in the collective evolution of soul consciousness. Intuitive, author, ordained Unity Minister, master numerologist, and Soul Regression Therapist Sue Frederick, has been featured in the New York Times and has presented workshops at venues such as Omega Institute, The Crossings Retreat Center, Naropa University, Shambhala Retreat Center, Loyola University, American Business Women's Association and the National Career Development Association. http://www.SueFrederick.com Learn more about Simran here: www.iamsimran.com www.1111mag.com/

An affirmative approach to aging takes into account that new parts of us are always clamoring for airtime. The soul and spirit don't "retire" even if our careers do, and there's a difference between getting older and growing older.These parts of us could be passions and creative leaps, service projects and leadership roles in the community, a new line of work or an exploration of some non-work modes of expression, or simply rediscovering the sense of wonder and love of learning. They ask us to continually reinvent ourselves and stay close to our deepest sense of passion and purpose.In this episode, we'll explore the nature and nurture of passion as we age - what inspires it and what defeats it, how we lose it, and how we get it back.In this episode, you'll discover:Passion can be cultivated and turned on as well as turned offPassion is in the risk-the willingness to step from the sidelines onto the playing field.Passion breeds passion, and disinterest breeds disinterest. If we lack passion in our own lives, our other relationships will be denied that energy.Passion is more than exuberance; it's endurance.Passion is intimately related to health. To the degree passion is vitality, honoring our passions enhances our vitality.About Gregg Levoy: Gregg Levoy, author of Callings: Finding and Following An Authentic Life (rated among the Top 20 Career Publications by the Workforce Information Group) and Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion, is the former behavioral specialist at USA Today and a regular blogger for Psychology Today.He has presented at the International Conference on Positive Aging, Smithsonian Institution, Environmental Protection Agency, Microsoft, American Counseling Association, National Career Development Association, and many others.

Managing Up for Career Success Have you ever worked in a truly terrible environment? Think back to that job now. What made it so bad?  If you're like most people, the difference between a great job and a horrible job doesn't have all that much to do with the work itself. Instead, it usually comes down to your relationships with your coworkers — and especially your relationship with your boss.  Having a positive, healthy relationship with your boss, based on genuine trust and respect, makes your working life so much easier, and ultimately helps you both reach your career goals.  So how can you build that kind of relationship? And how can you repair your relationship with your boss if it's not off to a great start?  On today's episode, we are talking about “managing up,” a professional development strategy that will help you build better working relationships, find more satisfaction on the job and remove the trickiest obstacles between you and your ultimate career goals.  In this episode, we discuss… [00:58] What Is Managing Up? [14:19] What Managing Up Is Not [24:15] Why Managing Up Matters [34:53] How to Manage Up at Work  My guest is Dr. Lisa S., PhD, LPC, CCC. She is a career coach and counselor at Growing Self, as well as the past president of both the National Career Development Association and the Colorado Career Development Association. Today, she shares her insight and wisdom with you.  I hope you'll join the “Doctors Lisa” for this lively and useful conversation about building an empowered, satisfying career by learning how to manage up.

For as long as we live, we're always looking for guidance, for answers and most of us look for these answers in books, or in the ideas and opinions we receive from others, but what if everything we need to know to truly live an authentic, meaningful life, all the answers reside within us and they are communicated to us via dreams, or subconscious promptings that come at us out of nowhere at exactly the right moments. We talk about such callings and their power to help us build a better life in this episode with guest, Gregg Levoy. We discuss - how callings can change our lives, how we can be more receptive to them, the tools we can use to identify a true calling and distinguish it from a false one, and how best to navigate possible challenges we may encounter along the way. Gregg Levoy is the author of Callings: Finding and Following An Authentic Life —rated among the "Top 20 Career Publications" by the Workforce Information Group—and Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion (Penguin). He is also the former "behavioral specialist" at USA Today and a regular blogger for Psychology Today.

In today's "Monday Mashup," Meg and Bobbie discuss their recent experience of presenting a 75 minute workshop to the Maine Career Development Association, on Podcasting and YouTube as a Career Development and Job Seeking Tool. Bobbie & Meg really enjoyed the experience and of course it wasn't without its mishaps which we discuss in this podcast. The presentation was a part of the MCDA's bi-Annual State Conference. Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, the MCDA had to shift the conference to a Zoom format (which is actually working out really well). FYI, for anyone working in the career advising field, there are more presentations coming up if anyone wants to join the MCDA and check them out! It is only $20/year to join and all are welcome. Bobbie & Meg want to thank the MCDA. They were so honored and excited to be a part of this program. They especially want to thank Nicole Lazure and Peter Osborne who were both a huge source of support throughout the process. Join Our Podcast Email List!

096 The One That Helps Introverts Episode 96: Show Notes Well, Kermit the Frog said It’s not easy being green, but it’s not easy being introverted either.  It may be hard for the Scaling UP! Nation! To believe, but introducing myself in a crowdy room doesn’t come naturally for me.  Through the years I have been able to work of a few tricks that I do to help in this situation.  I have also found that getting started is the hardest part for me.  Once I get started, I'm OK.  A family friend of mine, Donna Srader of The Texas Tech University Career Center has written a webinar series on this very issue.  As you will find from this interview, there are many different levels of introversion and introversion does not mean shy.  Even though many think that it does.  It is my hope that you can take several items from my interview with Donna that will help you get out there and meet people.  More about Donna Srader:  As an introvert, Donna Srader has excelled in a career that has “clients” come to her!

She is an active member of several professional organizations, including SOACE and the National Career Development Association, although she freely admits that she is working to better her networking skills! Also, if you have read this far, Donna would like you to know that she has singlehandedly prevented the zombie apocalypse.

Click here to support the podcast Tapping for pain and distress is easy. You can name exactly what is wrong (the pain) and you have a clear idea of what you want (relief). Tapping to create a life that we love can be a little bit tricker because we are often unsure of exactly what we want that life to be like. My friend Gregg Levoy refers to this idea of creating the life we were made for as a calling, as if our soul is calling us towards fulfilment. Once we have a clear idea of our calling, we can use tapping to help us work towards it. In this conversation Gregg and I talk about what exactly a calling is and how to get clarity about it in your own life. In addition, I have added four easy ways in which you can use tapping to gain clarity about your calling by clearing the blocks standing in the way of taking positive action.

Off Pain Relief Miricle When I was in my twenties it felt as if I was going to live forever. I gave little thought to how I ate, when I went to bed, or how I treated my body in general. Now that I am in my forties there are mornings when I can tell exactly what I ate or drank the night before just by how my body feels. I'm not exactly sure when it happened. One day I felt like I was immortal, the next day not so much. In today's interview I talk with Gregg Levoy about the aging process, the emotions that accompany it, and how we can tap for that experience.
