Episode description
Have you ever questioned your ambition? Have you ever thought to yourself "I'm just not that ambitious anymore"? Did this usually happen during a time when your career was at a stand still? Or perhaps you weren't interested in growing in your chosen career?
On this episode, I am busting the belief that ambition is restricted to the 9-5 and breaking down how:
- The definition of ambition has shifted over the last 60 years
- Our ambition takes different shapes throughout our career
- The absence of ambition may signal something deepr
If you are a high achieving, driven individual who has ever questioned your ambition you won't want to miss today's episode.
