How Taking More Risks Can Unlock the Life You Actually Want
Description
In this episode, I share how not playing it safe can be the most powerful decision you make—for your creativity, your career, and your life. I open up about scrapping a nearly finished book to write something bolder and truer, and why embracing discomfort is the path to fulfillment and impact.
This is a syndicate episode from the LinkedIn Speaker Series, where I sit down with Ashley Levy, Senior Director of Brand Marketing at LinkedIn, for a deep conversation about my latest book Never Play It Safe. We talk about trusting intuition, the myth of the linear career path, and the hidden cost of living by someone else’s script. If you’ve ever felt stuck in “shoulds” or worried that taking a leap is too risky, this one’s for you.
Some highlights we explore:
- The yellow sticky note that sparked the idea behind Never Play It Safe.
- Why playing it safe is actually the riskiest move you can make.
- The #1 shared trait of top performers from my 1,000+ podcast interviews.
- How attention, not time, is your most valuable creative asset.
Enjoy!
