Hustle Hack: When it comes to your career, pay attention to your evolving interests and the doors that are opening to you. There are no rules that say you have to be tied to your original plan or early career goals. The more you are in your career the more that you might encounter new opportunities and skills that you may have never considered before. I love the quote “If three people tell you you’re a horse, buy a saddle.” Pay attention to what people ask of you, what they notice about your work. Changing directions is often not only permissable, it’s the best thing you can do to find meaning and fulfillment and enjoy your work.

Moment of Grace: What is your wellness practice? It’s so easy to put health and fitness on the back burner when your life already feels full. I know for me in this season of having a baby it’s easy to get very busy with family and work. Working out can feel like just another thing to add to my to do list, but the truth is it shouldn’t just be on my to do list or be something I should do when I get around to it. If I kind of put my life on pause and zoom way out and look in, I would like to see a person who has a thoughtful approach to my relationship with my family, my work, my self, and God. So the wellness practice is an important component of that. I love that Jane said there’s no magical formula that all Broadway performers adhere to. But they all have some kind of thoughtful approach to it. Consider what your wellness practice is currently and what you would like for it to look like.
