***Originally released December 13, 2022*** If you're still at the crossroads between finding your purpose and working for profit, who says you can't have both? You can find your purpose while being profitable at the same time. You just have to figure out your path to a profitable purpose. In this conversation, Huw Edwards talks about how you can achieve a profitable purpose and live your life according to your values. Huw is a serial entrepreneur, investor, and international speaker turned transformation coach who is on a mission to guide over-educated high achievers to a path of profitable purpose outside of their corporate careers. Whether you're an entrepreneur with impostor syndrome or a corporate overachiever, barely gripping the ladder, Huw has discovered a way to illuminate your passage to the safe harbor of clarity and fulfillment. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: His decision to take a huge leap and leave Bridgewater. Freedom equals making decisions based on your values. The path to profitable purpose is about community. Why we're always going to be winging it – even business owners and leaders! Making friends with fear and making it a tool. Episode Highlights: [15:10] Creating Autonomy in Your Life Values in a vacuum are not valuable. It's not just about what you value. For Huw, he values more than those things because he values autonomy and that's what made him take a leap and leave Bridgewater. He wanted to be not just present with his family, but to be emotionally present as well and be able to give his best self outside of work. It's not necessarily that a company's principles are bad. But if your values are not aligned with the organization you're working with and that you're spending eight to 12 hours a day at, then it's not going to be a pleasant experience. You're going to dread going to work if your values are not aligned. And so, Huw took a leap, made a decision according to his values, and chose to create more autonomy in his life. [22:23] Freedom = Making Decisions Based on Your Values Freedom has a lot of connotations. There's freedom of time where you can choose to work later in the day because that's when you can do creative work. There's freedom of place where you can work anywhere in the world. Then there's also the freedom to make decisions according to your values. You have to know what you're doing and give yourself permission. [31:50] We're All Winging It It's about growth and evolution. As humans, we all want to grow. If you're a high achiever and you want to grow, you're always going to be bumping up at what you were capable of before. And so, you're always going to be winging it and everybody is winging it. And having that kind of realization helps you get over the imposter syndrome because it gives you freedom. [53:53] The Path to Profitable Purpose The path to a profitable purpose is an eight-step plan of how to get from where you are today to finding a purpose that is not only fulfilling and meaningful but also profitable. Finding your purpose doesn't mean becoming woke but broke. It is about leveraging your uniqueness in a way where you create value for others and value for yourself and your family.

Despite the preconceived notions about the lack of adaptability of ex-military individuals, they possess a wealth of qualities that can greatly enrich a corporate setting. By overcoming these stereotypes, organizations can tap into a reservoir of disciplined, goal-oriented, and resilient professionals who have demonstrated their ability to excel under pressure. Their extensive training in teamwork, leadership, problem-solving, and effective communication can catalyze innovation within the company and foster an environment of collaboration. Furthermore, integrating veterans into corporate culture not only breaks down misconceptions but also encourages diversity of thought, contributing to a well-rounded workforce capable of approaching challenges from various angles in an often untapped talent pool. Also,  transitioning former military personnel into corporate roles doesn't only benefit the organizations themselves, but also has a positive impact on the community and society at large. Veterans often face challenges as they navigate the shift from military to civilian life, and providing them with meaningful employment can alleviate some of these difficulties. In this episode, we talk with Robyn Grable of Talents ASCEND, an AI skills-based talent sourcing program.//WHEN YOU'RE READY, HERE'S HOW WE CAN HELP YOU//TAKE THE FREE 5-MINUTE EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT ASSESSMENThttps://turningthecornerllc.com/hr/employee-engagement/assessment/DOWNLOAD A FREE SELF-ASSESSMENT:https://turningthecornerllc.com/free-assessment/SCHEDULE A CALL WITH A HUMAN RESOURCES CONSULTANThttps://turningthecornerllc.com/LISTEN TO OUR PODCASTApple Podcasts:https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/how-i-turned-the-corner/id1637875430Spotify:https://open.spotify.com/show/2S4sGuOSeXWXIKY7zMW1p5Google Podcast:https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5wb2RldGl6ZS5jb20vcnNzL05lTUhWV0tSSQiHeart Radio:https://www.iheart.com/podcast/269-how-i-turned-the-corner-100448118/HIRE KENDRA AS A CONSULTANT OR KEYNOTE SPEAKERhttps://kendraprospero.com/__________Say hello on social:YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/TurningthecornerllcJobsFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/TurningTheCornerLLCInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/turning_the_corner/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/turning-the-corner/Resources Mentioned: Website:  https://talentsascend.comLinkedIn:  https://linkedin.com/in/robynjgrable

When baby number 2 came along, and it was time to go back to work, civil servant Sophie Howard realised that the numbers just didn't stack up. She looked at what her salary would be versus what she would have to pay in childcare costs, commuting to work and all the rest that goes with having a job in a government agency.  And she knew there had to be another way of making a living. With a lot of research, tons of determination and possibly a touch of beginners luck, Sophie was able to build … and then sell … an e-commerce business for over a million dollars USD. But by then, she'd caught the entrepreneurial bug and realised she enjoyed the process of buying existing online businesses and making them more profitable.  Several 6 and 7-figure businesses later, she is now sharing what she's learned with her Freedom Navigator students.

This interview with Mary Tess Rooney is the reminder that we all need that our joy and happiness matter at least as much as what other people expect of us. Mary Tess is the author of Heart Value, a book that helps us ensure we are making career and life decisions from the intersection of the value we offer the world that also lights us up. What Mary Tess describes as Heart Value is very close to what I call Great Work, which is why it was such an easy decision to invite her to the podcast. And I'm very glad I did! Mary Tess is no pie-in-the-sky Pollyanna. She urges us to acknowledge that it can be challenging to speak up and share our heart value with the world, and she encourages us to be strategic and honest about what's possible right now and what might need some time to unfold. In both cases, she emphasizes that we are not rushing towards something better, but instead, we are building a habit of honoring our heart value. Join us as we discuss:· Why the people we work with need to see us in ways that matter to us instead of ways that matter to them.· How to let our heart value guide our practical actions and tactical choices, and how that is the surest way to create a life we love.· Why we need to impact our careers by sharing what lights us up and asking for the opportunity to do more of that· How to cherish your EPIC adventure, even when things do not go as planned Resources Mentioned:Website: https://marytessrooney.comIG and LinkedIn: @marytessrooneyFB page: @marytessrooneybuzzClick here to get your own copy of Amanda's book, Great Work.

Whether you're an entrepreneur with impostor syndrome or a corporate overachiever, barely gripping the ladder, Huw has discovered a way to illuminate your passage to the safe harbor of clarity and fulfillment. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: His decision to take a huge leap and leave Bridgewater. Freedom equals making decisions based on your values. The path to profitable purpose is about community. Why we're always going to be winging it – even business owners and leaders! Making friends with fear and making it a tool. Episode Highlights: [15:10] Creating Autonomy in Your Life Values in a vacuum are not valuable. It's not just about what you value. For Huw, he values more than those things because he values autonomy and that's what made him take a leap and leave Bridgewater. He wanted to be not just present with his family, but to be emotionally present as well and be able to give his best self outside of work. It's not necessarily that a company's principles are bad. But if your values are not aligned with the organization you're working with and that you're spending eight to 12 hours a day at, then it's not going to be a pleasant experience. You're going to dread going to work if your values are not aligned. And so, Huw took a leap, made a decision according to his values, and chose to create more autonomy in his life. [22:23] Freedom = Making Decisions Based on Your Values Freedom has a lot of connotations. There's freedom of time where you can choose to work later in the day because that's when you can do creative work. There's freedom of place where you can work anywhere in the world. Then there's also the freedom to make decisions according to your values. You have to know what you're doing and give yourself permission. [31:50] We're All Winging It It's about growth and evolution. As humans, we all want to grow. If you're a high achiever and you want to grow, you're always going to be bumping up at what you were capable of before. And so, you're always going to be winging it and everybody is winging it. And having that kind of realization helps you get over the imposter syndrome because it gives you freedom. [53:53] The Path to Profitable Purpose The path to a profitable purpose is an eight-step plan of how to get from where you are today to finding a purpose that is not only fulfilling and meaningful but also profitable. Finding your purpose doesn't mean becoming woke but broke. It is about leveraging your uniqueness in a way where you create value for others and value for yourself and your family.

In this episode, Erik Cabral speaks with Bo Parfet, the Chief Growth Officer of DLP Real Estate Capital. From overcoming dyslexia growing up to climbing the Seven Summits, Bo is the epitome of what it's like to do something great – not just for yourself but for other people. Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation: Bo's eureka moment Figuring out YOUR best way to absorb information The power of adding layers to an experience Bo's life-changing canoeing experience Moments he embraced the F word Where DLP Capital focuses Helping people through grace Episode Highlights: [03:58] Figuring Out Your Best Way to Absorb Information People have different ways of learning and absorbing information. You need to figure out the best style that works for you because we all learn differently. One of the best ways to learn is also teaching what you learn to other people. [17:02] Adding Layers to an Experience It wasn't just an epiphany on the summit of Kilimanjaro that happened to Bo. It was a huge internal shift where he realized there's more to life than just being a banker. The door had been cracked open. He just had to keep climbing so the door would open up wider. There's nothing wrong with doing something great for yourself. People need those journeys for themselves. But when you can add in other layers where you can add impact to the community, that's going to make it an experience of a lifetime.
