322. Get beyond busy and transform your relationship with time

Guest: Shunta Grant, Executive Coach

THIS WEEK’S TOPIC:

Ever wonder if your busy schedule is steering you away from your true priorities? This week, we delve into the art of purposeful pruning with executive coach Shunta Grant. Formerly a successful attorney, Shunta found her calling by shifting away from a path that no longer aligned with her values and season in life. She shares her compelling journey from lawyer to entrepreneur and coach, and reveals how pruning away what doesn’t matter focuses our energy on what truly does. An important conversation packed with practical advice and insights into embracing different seasons of life, Shunta’s story is an important reminder of the power that comes from aligning our time with our deepest values.
