151 - Knowing the Season You’re In

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Like seasons in nature, our lives and even our businesses experience different seasons. Not only that, but everyone’s seasons are different and vary in length of time. Today’s episode is very much inspired by what’s been going on in my own life lately and recent behind the scenes conversations with clients. In the past, it was hard for me to accept the season I was in because I didn’t understand its significance. But as I have learned to honor the season I’m in, both in business and in life, I have found that I find my way moving forward much more quickly and successfully.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">So listen to this episode full of personal anecdotes and real-life examples of the seasons we all experience at various times. Know that whatever season you are in has its purpose and open yourself up to learning the lesson it holds. And most importantly, avoid playing the comparison game. The more we get out of comparing our seasons to those of others and focus on our own, the more successful we’ll be.</span></p> <p> </p> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Show Notes:</span></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">[1:57] - Elyse began her career in sales selling yellow pages.
