One of the most common questions I\u2019ve gotten over the years is, \u201cSara, how do I find my passion?\u201d\xa0Often this question is followed by some lamenting over the fact that one has not yet found their passion.\xa0\xa0\nSometimes society tells us that if we are not committing our life\u2019s work to something we are passionate about, we are wasting our time or our talent.\xa0\xa0\nI would like to argue that sometimes it\u2019s ok to do something you\u2019re not 100% passionate about because it provides you security and stability (ie: a paycheck and benefits).\xa0\xa0\nAND, I get it\u2026. Doing meaningful work that is aligned with your passions and gives you a sense of purpose is highly desirable.\xa0\xa0\nAND\u2026 the world needs your gifts!\xa0So, please don\u2019t hold back from sharing them with us.\nSO, how do you know when to go after what you\u2019re passionate about?\xa0\xa0\nHow do you determine the thing you want to passionately pursue?\nHow do you know when it\u2019s the right time to pivot?\xa0\xa0\nOver the last 20 years, I\u2019ve spent a lot of time building businesses around work that I\u2019m deeply passionate about - work that gives me a massive sense of purpose.\xa0But there have also been moments (even seasons) where I have sat in pretty \u201cMEH\u201d situations in order to strategically plan my next pivot.\xa0In this episode, I share a few examples so you can see what this looks like in real life.\xa0\xa0\nMaybe you\u2019re ready to pivot right now or maybe you\u2019re looking out at a 5-year plan toward your purpose.\xa0Either way, I got you - and this episode will give you some great insight.\nLink mentioned:\nInterested in Business Coaching with Sara?\xa0Email us at info@shamelessmom.com with the subject line: Business Coaching and we will send you details on Sara\u2019s 6-month One-on-One Business & Leadership Coaching Package!\xa0\nThank you to our sponsors this month:\ncare.com: Get the help you need to make it all work for your family at care.com/book.\xa0\nFull-Time VA: Check out this free training on how to be a virtual assistant that makes full-time income with part-time hours: thefulltimeva.com/Shameless.\xa0Owner Amanda Rush Holmes is also including a bonus free guide for SMA listeners -\xa0The VA Kickstarter Workbook!\nHello Fresh: Get farm-fresh, pre-portioned meals delivered right to your door!\xa0Go to HelloFresh.com/shameless65 and use code shameless65 for 65% off plus free shipping!\nLast Bottle Wines: Get 10% off your order when you use the code SHAMELESS at lastbottlewines.com.\nRitual: Ritual\u2019s Essential for Women 18+ is a multivitamin you can actually trust.
