Episode 103 – Passionate About My Mess
According to our expert, Jeff Harry, we need more play in our life, “While we spend most of our time pretending to be important, serious grownups, it’s when we let go of that facade and just play, that the real magic happens. Fully embracing your own nerdy genius — whatever that is — gives you the power to make a difference and change lives. Jeff believes that we already have many of the answers we seek, and by simply unleashing our inner child, we can find our purpose and, in turn, help to create a better world.
Business is stressful. It’s how we put food on the table, keep a roof over our heads, and how we share our purpose with the world. Building a business starts as a passion but then often life gets sucked out of our passion through toxic work environments. It could be from our team, low sales, or even from our own internal struggle. No matter where it comes from, we need to deal with it to reach success.
“When a workplace becomes toxic, its poison spreads beyond its walls and into the lives of its workers and their families.”
– Gary Chapman
