In this follow up conversation with author and empowerment strategist JJ Flizanes, we continue our dialogue around living out our purpose and owning our power. JJ and I start by discussing a quote from author Marianne Williamson that she included in her book. The quote speaks to our deepest fears of being powerful beyond measure. Playing small puts ourselves and others at a disadvantage because when we shine, we give permission for others to do so as well. Being who you are is exactly who you need to be, and JJ touches on how this authenticity is essential for leadership.

Sometimes trauma impacts a person’s ability to live out their purpose. JJ and I discuss her perspectives on grieving, victim mentality, and lessons learned through life experiences. JJ believes those who have been impacted by hardships and trauma can use the wisdom they have gained to help others. She also touches on the power of forgiveness and keeping your heart open. JJ and I also talk about trying on different belief systems, the transformational power of changing your perspective, and how coaches and managers can “be on purpose.”

What’s Inside:

  • JJ’s views on forgiveness and how we choose our life lessons.
  • How changing your perspective can transform your life.
  • Tips for coaches and professionals on how to “be on purpose”.
