What if you could have more fulfillment, peace, and ease in your professional and personal life — while staying ambitious?
Learn to align your ambitions with what matters most, navigate transitions with adventure and ease, and create sustainable success — without sacrificing your wellbeing or losing yourself in the process.
We’re taught that ambitious careers come with a price: our time, our peace, maybe even our wellbeing. But what if that story is outdated? What if you could pursue meaningful work, advance your career, and still have energy for the life you want to live?
Join Kathy and her guests — experts, authors, and innovators — as they challenge traditional narratives about success and ambition and explore new ways of living and working. While life and work rarely go according to plan, it's never too late to create a life and career that truly work for you.

175: How to Move Forward: Lessons from Creativity (Ambition In-Between Series)
Overview
Much as we often find ourselves asking “what now” at the culmination of an ambition, the start of a new year is also a time when many of us wonder how best to move forward.
For the third episode of our Ambition In-Between series, I want to build on what I’ve shared about the unexpected outcomes and mixed emotions that show up at the completion of a big ambition, and talk about how to move forward when we’re not totally certain what’s next.
Drawing on my experience of writing and releasing Sustainable Ambition, as well as what I’ve learned this year about the creative process, I’ve learned to reframe ambition and growth as a cyclical, non-linear process. When we recognize the need both for periods of commitment and periods of dormancy and reflection, I believe we can unlock a more sustainable, joyful way to build our lives and grow over time.
