Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

You Don’t Need Another Job. You Need a Break: How to Take a Career Sabbatical | Katrina McGhee
Q: You've got your MBA, you're in career—did you have any Code 3 moment in your life?
Yes, after eight years as an actuary and a later shift into market research, I realized I did not want another job but a break, sparked by coaching and a deep sense of misalignment which led me to dream about travel and a new life path.
Before You Die: What a Hospice Doctor Knows About Regret, Reinvention, and Waking Up Now
Q: What are the ABCs of deathbed regrets and how can listeners apply them today?
The ABCs are Authenticity, Bravery, and Connection; listeners can apply them by aligning actions with authentic self, building courage to pursue important goals, and prioritizing relationships today, not in some distant future.
The Story You're Living Isn't Final: How to Rewrite Your Life Before It's Too Late | Blake Cooper Griffin
Q: Have you had a Code 3 moment in your life, a moment that shifted the direction you were heading?
Yes, a moment in middle school where a homophobic slur was hurled at me; I chose not to accept that as my life's script and committed to the possibility that things could change, which became the core theme of my memoir and my work.
Burned-Out ER Doctor to Entrepreneur: Reinventing Your Identity After Medicine
Q: Why aren't you an ER doctor anymore?
The guest explains that while she loves emergency medicine, the system and the pressures of the role made it unsustainable for her long-term well-being and alignment. A key moment came when she was shown the door from the main ER, which, although painful, catalyzed a shift toward building a broader practice in lifestyle and preventive care that could reach more people. The move allowed her to leverage prior skills to help high achievers and physicians pursue more meaningful work.
The Illusion of Safety: A Smarter Path to Career Reinvention
Q: What's a practical hack listeners can use today to move toward purpose and fulfillment?
Adopt a thought-model: identify the facts, observe your thoughts, and consciously choose thoughts that trigger productive feelings, actions, and results.
