Joyful Ambition – A Reclamation
How GOOD can you let it be? I was asked this poignant question a few years ago and it really helped me see that sometimes I was shutting out the good with the bad. I wasn’t allowing the good. The same has felt true for my own ambition. The truth is that my ambition has scared me. That’s no longer the case. Now, I see “joyful ambition” as a possibility for me – for all of us. I’m sharing how this is true and what’s required for it to happen on the podcast this week. Specifically in this episode, I’ll share with you: 0.55 – My word of the year (it chose me, I didn’t choose it) 1:57 – I ask you to consider, are you shutting down the *good* things along with the bad? 2:19 – How I felt about ambition before 3:26 – The definition of ambition and why I love it 5:50 – Some common phrases people say about ambition (these are fascinating!) 9:16 – 3 things required for joyful ambition I share all this in hopes of resparking your ambition if needed, and encouraging you to allow yourself to be the ambitious person you are.
