Have you ever stood at the crossroads of your career, the weight of decision pressing down on you like a heavy fog? My wife, Shakira Williams, and I know that fork in the road all too well. Together, we take you through the emotionally charged journey of stepping back from roles that once defined us, sharing our personal narratives from the worlds of education and social work. In a space where passion meets exhaustion, we bare our struggles with burnout, the search for impact, and the haunting sense of inadequacy that can lead to the hardest of choices: to leave or not to leave.Within the heart of our discussion lie the stories that shaped our professional lives, the ones that still have the power to stir us. Shakira brings to the table the unique challenges that come with the territory of social work, while I offer my insights from the trenches of education. We dissect the temptation to let others steer our careers and the pivotal moments that force us to confront our true calling. Whether it's finding joy as a stay-at-home mom or rekindling the flame for teaching in a different environment, our conversation is an intimate exploration of the transitions that shape our professional and personal worlds.As we close this chapter, we reflect on the essence of what it means to find fulfillment in our careers. It's about aligning with our strengths and core purposes, and sometimes, it involves asking the tough questions that guide us to or away from our current paths. For those of you contemplating a change or just looking for a spark of inspiration, join us as we share our experiences and the deep-seated belief that kindness, in any role we play, is the bridge to making a lasting impact.Links:99% A Human, 1% Amazing Paperback Book: https://www.onepercentamazing.com/IMPACT: https://newteacherbigimpact.com/waitlist Connect with Daryl:Website: https://darylwilliamsjr.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DarylWilliamsJrOfficial

Could the mental strategies of elite athletes revolutionise our performance, whether in the operating room, the boardroom, or the classroom? In this episode, psychologist Josephine Perry joins me to unravel the art of applying sports psychology across high-performance domains.With a background that zigs and zags through journalism, marketing, and even crisis communications, Josephine embodies the shift from non-athlete to an iron-willed triathlete, proving that the philosophies of sports psychology are not just for those on the track but for anyone chasing their peak potential.Facing a career crossroads can be daunting, especially for those steeped in the medical field, where the weight of expectation often nudges one down a preordained path. This episode explores the layers of this existential dilemma, offering a compassionate look at the internal struggle medics might face when their career no longer echoes their inner values. Together, we sift through the importance of decision-making guided by personal purpose and the courage it takes to steer away from years of study when it leads you astray from your true calling. Through real stories, Josephine shares her battles with a lethargic alter ego, dubbed "Lazy Larry," we explore how aligning our life's actions with our core values—like family and bravery—can not only quell the perfectionist's anxiety but also stoke the fires of motivation.Connect with Dr Josephine Perry:WebsiteLinkedInGet Josephine's book the 10 Pillars of SuccessConnect with Rolake Ojo:LinkedInInstagramWebsiteBrand New Dr. is produced and managed by Urban Podcasts.

Want to know how to become a highly effective organizational consultant…the Disney way? Today's guests are my treasured colleagues Harold Hill and Luis Marrero. The three of us worked together as internal consultants at Walt Disney World before starting our consulting and coaching businesses. I'm not going to lie – this conversation was some of the most fun I have had on the podcast. I had a blast taking a trip down memory lane and deconstructing what it was about our experience as internal consultants at Disney that was so unique and powerful. You'll hear Harold and Luis validate everything you have listened to me share. They talk about what we did at Disney that was so effective, especially our intentionality around our consulting approach with clients and capturing our best practices into an online program that inspired the eCourse I created called the Consultant's Toolbox.

Are you ready for the new retirement? The old-fashioned "full-stop" retirement simply doesn't work for everyone. For many people, to retire happy, it includes some form of work - on your own terms. In a hybrid retirement, work - paid or unpaid - can provide meaning, connection, purpose, fulfillment - and some income. There are more options available today to create a hybrid retirement that works for you. But that may mean changing lanes. You'll need to plan ahead and lay the groundwork. Justin Smith, CFP., CAP, CFA of Savant Wealth Management, offers his tips and a tool to help you think outside the box and navigate career crossroads. Justin joins us from Phoenix, Arizona. ________________________ Delaying retirement?  You could wait until you retire and ask What Now? – and then scramble – or drift. Don't be that person. Instead, start planning for the non-financial side of retirement now. Delaying when to retire doesn't mean delaying your preparation. Apply the same principles of design thinking that Nike and other leading companies use to design your future. Learn more about my One-on-One coaching and small group programs.

Nobody announced it, but it's becoming more and more popular. 20 years ago there was really one path where it was somebody in the C-suite and then they would go serve on a board and they went from working 80 hours a week to working 20 hours a week. They'd still fly around and go to board meetings and things like that. But now that has been democratized and there's countless different ways that people can take a hybrid path. And the big change I'm seeing is that a more people have access to these hybrid paths. Basically anybody who puts in the work can find something that checks all the boxes for them.

Andrew Griffiths is a very special person as he is my Author Mentor and inspiration for my book, Navigating Career Crossroads. Without his advice and unwavering support I wouldn’t have had the courage to become a published author. Andrew is a very special gentleman. It has been 15 years since Andrew’s first book ‘101 Ways to Market Your Business’(Allen & Unwin) first hit the shelves. The way we do business has evolved furiously during this time – in an age where we are drowning in information but thirsty for wisdom, Andrew now has 12 bestselling titles which are sold in over 60 countries. This is clearly testament to the fact that he continues to offer relevant advice as an author and business commentator. What an amazing career! Starting life as an orphan in Western Australia and growing up all too quickly in the seedy red light district of Perth, Andrew learned to become a survivor. The lessons learned in his battle for survival – in life and in business – have made him one of the most successful and highly sought after authorities in the small business and entrepreneurial space. Andrew is a bestselling business author and presenter not just because his personal story is moving and his narrative is unexpectedly humorous After 30 years as a business owner in industries as diverse as tourism, advertising, retailand consulting, he has been there and done it. Today Andrew shares the stage with leaders and inspirational thinkers, from celebrity entrepreneurs including Richard Branson, to the up and coming young entrepreneurial elite like Daniel Priestly, to game changing politicians, famous authors, inspirational individuals who have done extraordinary things and many more. In the literary world as an entrepreneurial commentator, Andrew’s peers include the likes of Malcom Gladwell and Seth Godin. Described by many as the big man with the big heart, Andrew is on a mission to share the entrepreneurial rites of passage that he has learned to help others set themselves apart from the crowd.
