She'll Give You "Permission to be Human" EP 102

It's always fun to encounter a kindred spirit – someone on a very similar journey, whose thinking and beliefs are aligned with your own… and that's exactly what host, Laura Prisc , experienced during this week's episode, getting to know MaryBeth Hyland. MaryBeth is striving to bring the essence of what it means to be human back into our lives and work. Her desire was borne of her personal experience, working in a company that looked like it had it all together from the outside, but turned out to be a dysfunctional culture once she was immersed in it. "I was experiencing too much internal discord to stay," she explains, going further to say that the awareness that one is out of alignment with others, or an organization is sometimes sudden and sometimes creeps up on you. Either way, it's uncomfortable and unhealthy to stay. Having experienced something similar in more than one organization and having to work her way through releasing the guilt and shame associated with the perception of "quitting," she's taken some bold and decisive steps to take back her life and work, and to share what she's learned with the people and organizations she now works with. Listen in as she shares her story, including how she chose to extract herself from a women's organization in which she was the 5 th generation in her family to be involved. Breaking the cycle, as they say, is not easy even when it's clear it's the right decision. It comes with a lot of emotion, baggage, legacy, and expectation. Take some time to contemplate your core values and discern whether they are truly yours, or you've merely absorbed / inherited them from others. Ask yourself, "How did I get here?" and "Is this where I want to be in my life?" Perhaps you'll discover it's time for a change in your life, or you'll rest assured that you are in fact living a life you desire. Either way, it's a thought-provoking and engaging conversation.
