Part of Sanni\u2019s backstory is this:\xa0\u201cA few years ago, I was working full-time at a software company in Seattle when I decided to quit my job and begin living a more transient, outdoor-oriented life. My time on the road made me realize how often we make life decisions according to a template \u2013 one that was not chosen for us or designed for us, simply a product of what is usually done. But I believe that life starts happening when you make it, and it can be perfectly your creation. Too often we hold back simply because we're not sure of what's possible\u2026\u201d\xa0 \xa0 Since leaving full-time corporate work, Sanni has built a coaching business and is the co-founder of an experience series called OutWild\u2026 a combination of personal growth and outdoor adventure (which often challenges us and leads to deeper insight and understanding \u2013 more personal growth!). She\u2019s also what Laura considers an \u201cintrepid communicator.\u201d
\xa0
\xa0Laura invited Sanni in for a\xa0Conversation That Matters, because her first exposure to Sanni demonstrated her willingness to wade into real, timely, authentic, vulnerable communication about things that really matter to her. It\u2019s a rare trait and one Laura believes we all long to develop and wish for in the people we are close to.\xa0 \xa0 Over the course of their conversation, Laura and Sanni share philosophies, ideas, and experiences with their respective coaching clients and the work they feel called to do in the world. One commonality is their shared understanding that \u201cwhat everyone else is doing isn\u2019t necessarily right for us.\u201d Far too often, we follow the paths others tell us we \u201cshould\u201d be on, and \u201cshould\u201d feel lucky to take\u2026 but that doesn\u2019t always lead us to where we \u2013 as unique individuals \u2013 are supposed to be.\xa0 \xa0 They also discuss self-awareness, the prevalence of \u201cbusy-ness\u201d that is consuming our lives and making us less effective and creative than we are meant to be; they dive into what it means \u2013 individually \u2013 to meditate or seek stillness and just listen\u2026 and Sanni introduces the concept of taking \u201ca slow walk\u201d when it\u2019s time for a time out. \xa0 Sanni\u2019s Bio \xa0 Sanni McCandless has built a career around the intersection of life design and the outdoors. She works primarily as a transition coach for outdoor-focused individuals who want to create more tailored, intentional lifestyles and find agency in their own lives. In her work, she helps people overcome the doubts and concerns that constantly get in the way of living fearlessly and feeling fulfilled. Sanni challenges clients to communicate more honestly with those around them and achieve goals that have been on the back burner for far too long. Sanni is also the cofounder of Outwild, a community and event series which aims to provide people with the space and tools they need to create more outdoor, value-driven lifestyles. Sanni currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she enjoys year-round rock climbing and endless desert views. \xa0 You can also find Sanni & other resources here:\xa0 Sanni Online Sanni on Instagram\xa0 Outwild\xa0 Free Solo Movie Blake Cason \u2013\xa0Pivot Wellness
