When is it that we take inventory of our lives and decide how we're living? There's no better time than now as we speak with Theodora Miller, who has reclaimed her passion as an Abstract Artist after two decades successfully navigating the financial services world. This week we dive into conversation about designing the life we want to live and not putting our desires on hold because of X or for Y amount of time. Theodora invites us into her quest to examine her purpose, explore her creativity, implement mindfulness exercises, and own her position as an artist. We discuss the pressures to materialistically "succeed" in our society and the inevitable soul sacrifices we sometimes make to achieve external goals, while we acknowledge various seasons of life and assess how to give time back to ourselves. Listen as Theodora urges us to embrace our imperfections, make time for the things we love and have the courage to follow our passions, because: why not?! We remember that life is a series of choices and we are empowered to examine what we truly want.

063: How to redefine your life to invoke your passion w/Theodora Miller, Abstract Artist

This week we're inspired to consider what we can do better in our businesses as we speak with Maria Pahuja, Founder of Vayas Consulting. Maria is an Operations Consultant with impressive experience creating organization out of start up chaos. While operational management may not be the first priority on an entrepreneurs to-dos, we hear how it is essential for one's profitability, efficiency, and long term goals. Maria defines operational excellence, while reminding us that done is always better than perfect. Rather than becoming overwhelmed with strategy, we learn how to simplify, hold ourselves accountable, over communicate, and create a process we can stick with.&nbsp; Additionally, we get the behind the scenes intel of what it was like to work for big name magazines as Maria sheds some light on her days in Public Relations in NYC pre-operations and we hear how it's so much easier to run a business than to be a Mom. We get real about our purpose, felt pressures, and figuring out how to make choices that are best for ourselves. Tune in now!
