Contentment, Healthy Ambition, and Chasing Dreams with Chris Grainger, Founder of Lion Within
Episode description
Today’s episode with Chris is a great one– especially if you are thinking about diving into something new! Chris is bi-vocational. Meaning, that he’s got a full-time job, but is also pursuing a dream. Chris has an organization called The Lion Within Us, he’s got a podcast, courses, all kinds of stuff and he’s going for it!
We talk about what that looks like, just to step into something new, and have success in your current job as well as win at home first. Chris is where a lot of listeners are- I have a job, but I also have a dream- and can I make the leap; do I want to make the leap? Maybe I want to do bi-vocational.
