We’re all in a moment. And, we’re asking the big questions. Especially about work. Should I join The Great Resignation? Should I stay and just keep on, keeping on. Or, reimagine, reinvent, maybe even start my own thing? Can I really expect more than just a paycheck and stability from work? How do I navigate the overwhelm, burnout, and work-life-bleed that’s turned work-from-home into never-stop-wo... more

  • Insightful, Powerful, Moving & Useful

    I have been a fan and follower of Jonathan Fields for quite some time. He always brings tremendous value. His “sparketypes” are an interesting way to filter for innate strengths & personal wiring, that enables you to lean into your gifts.

    I think that the real magic here, though, is the Brain Trust of rotating folks, who bring unique and interesting perspectives to some of the dilemmas being presented by listeners. Debbie Owens is one of my favorites, always insightful at reading between and be... more

  • Jason Mendelson interview is profoundly inspirational!!

    A friend sent me the link to this episode. I found the interview profoundly moving. My first identity in life was also as a drummer. I then dropped it for a new identity as a lawyer.

This may seem abundantly obvious to most out there but for a 61 year old like myself it has never been an option I ever considered even ... more

  • Such important conversations!

    The Sparketype test is great, the Sparked book is a guiding light and this podcast is super helpful as well!

    I am a personality test nerd and thought I fully equipped with all I need to navigate through life, but I was wrong! I am a super fan of all things Jonathan creates and thank him for his great work!
