Age of Aquarius w/ Personal Coach-Founder-Psychologist-Astrologist Adrienne Granadosin-Deanes

Show Notes Coming!

This week's guest has made a living building bridges both literally in Rwanda and figuratively as she’s cobbled together a dynamic career that’s taken her to some of the most beautiful and wild places on the planet. A friend of the pod Brooke Segerberg is Senior Biodiversity Research Officer with WWF that is taking her to Cambodia. We caught her days before her move! Brooke’s also acted as a biodiversity ranger and trapper in New Zealand. Led as a short-term consultant managing a footbridge program in eSwatini in Swaziland. And collected miller moths with a Dustbuster as a Wildlife Technician in Glacier National Park carrying out grizzly bear and moth research. Impressed yet? Co-hosts Katherine, Mallory and Austin follow the thread of her career that taught her how to create connections, find rare opportunities and know when to switch up the routine. We also talk about just because a career sounds great on paper, doesn’t mean you won’t experience highs and lows along the way.

Are you a hybrid professional? Prepare for a new way to look at multi-passionate professionals. Founder and Chief Creative Disruptor of More Than My Title, Dr. Sarabeth Berk shares how refusing to compartmentalize her own talents led her to help others blend career skills, passions and identities in the workplace. Sarabeth used her own hybrid expertise to find the intersection of her skills as a creative disruptor — long before theses topics were buzz words. Our chat covers how Sarabeth helps entrepreneurs and professionals create new titles, write cover letters and give an elevator pitch that speaks to your personal brand story. Find out why your co-hosts Katherine, Mallory and Austin are now believers for hybridity as the next step to being a multi-hyphenate.     Discover more about hybrid professionals: www.morethanmytitle.com Get the hybrid pro workbook: https://amzn.to/2PWp1zO Watch Are You a Hybrid Professional?

Survival Jobs: Is it a a phrase from multi-hyphenate jargon, career pivot or even a problematic term? Culturally, young people have shifted from gaining work experience (and paying for cars, college or just supporting the family) to gaining the "right" kind of work experience. Even as the pandemic displaced so many workers, there are stigmas around what’s a “worthy” job and the "right" way a career should progress. According to backstage.com a “survival job is a job someone takes to pay the bills while pursuing a career they love.” Co-hosts Mallory, Austin and Katherine circle up to discuss a listener suggested topic (thanks Kristen!). We parse this definition and more by exploring the complexities, hang ups and privilege tied to the concept.  Send your thoughts and questions to [email protected]

This week we find the special ingredient that makes Rory Leahy such a great guest! Rory started his career in the army leading him to a eye-rolling stint as a quality control lab technician (read: taste tester). He loved his role as an EMT while waiting for a position to open up to be a firefighter. An eye injury meant that dream would never come true, so he ditched the low-paying gig (Yes, most people working in healthcare make minimum wage). Today, he's found success as a chef running his own kitchen at Swill Inn in Chicago. Co-hosts Austin, Mallory and Katherine talk with Rory about finding Buddhism, finding your place in a role, and how what we're "meant" to do is sometimes the skill we take for granted.  Eat, Drink, and meet Rory at Swill Inn in Chicago: www.SwillInn.com Check out Rory's food creations and ADORABLE daughter Lilly: @Gordondadsay Check out the book: Buddhism For Dudes: A Jarhead's Guide to Mindfulness

Turns out, we have plenty of personal experience with leaving a job (surprised, or perhaps not?).  Top 10 Things Not to Say or Do If You're Fired https://www.thebalancecareers.com/top-things-not-to-say-or-do-if-you-re-fired-2063942 Fired vs. Laid Off vs. Furloughed – What’s the Difference? https://money.usnews.com/money/blogs/outside-voices-careers/articles/fired-vs-laid-off-vs-furloughed-whats-the-difference All the Jobs Lost Last Month Reportedly Belonged to Women - The Cut https://www.thecut.com/2021/01/all-jobs-lost-in-december-2020-were-held-by-women-report.html How to Handle Getting Fired https://www.thebalancecareers.com/you-re-fired-how-to-handle-getting-fired-2063381 Stop Telling Women They Have Imposter Syndrome https://hbr.org/2021/02/stop-telling-women-they-have-imposter-syndrome Bureau of Labor Statistics - February 2021 https://www.bls.gov/news.release/pdf/empsit.pdf

Denver-based Kelsey Sanders is a Neuro Physical Therapist who specializes in dizziness by day. She’s also a weekend warrior and micro-influencer who explores the Rocky Mountains with her pup Oliver for @fourpaws.twofeet on Instagram. Her dual roles offer the chance to pursue both passions and impact people both online or IRL (in real life).  Co-hosts Katherine, Mallory and Austin speak with Kelsey about the pressure to perform, the good/bad/ugly of social media, and the power of not falling prey to expectations. She also talks about how to explore in your own backyard and when to know your limits. A great episode for anyone wondering how to balance a passion with a profession.

We’re back! After major moves (we’re almost bi-coastal?) and literal surgery (on the throat, no less) your three hosts gather for a quick and loose catch up to talk what’s new in their lives and chat about what’s to come in the second half of the inaugural season. Mallory, Austin and Katherine also share highlights from past episodes (spoiler alert: Austin and the rest are calling favorites between these digital creations) and what to look forward to in upcoming episodes with financial experts, cosmic bosses and HR powerhouses who share their insights to how to make it as a multihyphenate.
