Beyond The Shoulds: Mastering Goal Setting with Coach Dave | November 4th, 2024

How do external "shoulds" affect our mental health and goal-setting in the motion design industry? In this November 4th episode of Monday Meeting, host Jen Van Horn talks with executive coach Dave O'Connor about reframing our relationship with expectations and exploring how they influence our creative journey. From industry pressures to learn every new tool to the push toward hustle culture, Dave offers insights on distinguishing between authentic goals and external pressures.

This episode includes:

• The difference between "shoulds" and "coulds" in decision making
• How to recognize and evaluate advice from industry influencers
• The importance of slow, sustainable success over quick fixes
• Strategies for setting goals that align with personal values rather than external pressures
