The Conscious PIVOT Podcast

I feel so fortunate to have so many incredible people in my life. And Lisa Garr is one of them!  Lisa is the creator and host of The Aware Show, a talk radio program focusing on self development in all areas of life, for healing and achievement. Lisa's lifelong work is a key catalyst behind what I'm calling "the Mainstreaming of Consciousness" - the realization by society that consciousness is a critical aspect of success in all areas of life and no longer just the bastion of personal development. Lisa and I discuss how the conversations within corporate America are shifting toward this trend, Lisa's own reinvention story, as well as discovering your unique contribution to the world by first becoming aware of who you are ... versus who you want to be ... and more!

I want to start with that acknowledgement and welcome him to this podcast.

The Superhero Formula: BE, DO, HAVE

In this podcast, I explore the concept of identity as a critical tool for a successful pivot. I use the term "superhero formula" because of the analogy of the superhero, Clark Kent aka Superman, who goes into a phone booth with one identify and emerges with a different identity. As children, we are programmed to believe the following "success formula":  You DO certain things in life in order to HAVE certain things to then BE someone whom others would respect as a result - DO-HAVE-BE. The superhero formula recognizes the flawed sequence of this. Many of us never find our true purpose and therefore "doing" is not the right first step. The superhero success formula is BE-DO-HAVE in recognition that success lies with the concept of identity. The more you focus first on "being" the person you want to become, the more success you will have in your pivot!
