There is so much you bring already, that you've done already, that you are already.

”There is so much you bring already, that you've done already, that you are already, and recognizing that is so much more powerful than focusing on the next mountain and seeing how far it is and seeing what you've yet to learn. Seeing what you have learned are the steps that are going to lead to climbing that mountain.”

This week’s “How She Finds Purpose” insight comes from Lauree Ostrofsky.

Lauree is a speaker, coach, hugger. She's also the author of the book Simply Leap, 7 Lessons On Facing Fear and Enjoying the Crap Out Of Your Life. It's a happy how to book on facing the fear of reinvention.

Lauree's also the author of a memoir entitled I'm Scared and Doing It Anyway. This book is about her reinvention of herself after being diagnosed with a brain tumor at age 28.

Lauree helps women clarify what they want and feel more confident putting themselves out there. Over 2 decades, she's worked with executives at IBM, Microsoft, Harvard, the US Department of Health and Human Services, and the Girl Scouts of USA to name a few.

In this episode we discussed:

• the impact of a brain tumor diagnosis on Lauree’s life perspective
• understanding and the struggles of "A students" and overthinkers
• the recognising and relevance of how previous skills can help move forward in new roles
