Sooner or later, you knew this was coming. It’s time to have a conversation about learning to be comfortable being uncomfortable. And why not? After all, it’s the basis of everything we talk about here on this podcast. Growth, adventure, learning, creativity, passion, aliveness….. it all begins at the end of your comfort zone. Not much going on there in the C.Z. (comfort zone) that you don’t already know, haven’t already done a million time

How are you doing in these times of so much change and uncertainty?
If you’re like most people, you’re probably quite uncomfortable with too much uncertainty. Why? Because humans are wired for certainty and abhor uncertainty.
We want life to be predictable and we want to be prepared for what is coming. We want answers and we want them now. This is not a bad thing. It’s perfectly normal.
As we start a new year, let’s talk about beginnings. But beginnings are not the whole story since a beginning is often preceded by an ending. Both beginnings and endings can be challenging, so let’s take them both on.
Have you ever worked hard to achieve your goals or get to where you thought you wanted to be and then having gotten there you felt burned out and knew you couldn’t sustain this level of performance?
And maybe you kept going anyway because you needed to prove that you were capable and not a quitter.
That’s how my guest, Alex Lianne Carter, felt as she reached what she thought was the peak of her career as the Director of Technology and Innovation for an independent school system.
