Inside this episode, I’ll share a heartfelt (and if you’re a parent or grandparent – relatable)  story about my recent experiences with my grandchildren and the delightful chaos that ensued during their visit.  By tuning in, you'll gain valuable insights into how moments of overwhelm and decision fatigue can impact both your personal and professional life. I'll discuss the common distractions we all face, such as social media and emails, and highlight the importance of rest and focus to truly pursue our passions—in my case, writing a book.
You'll also hear about a very hard decision I’m making for this podcast to prioritize my creative endeavors.
 
My hope is, that this episode will inspire you to reflect on your own sources of overwhelm and empower you to make the necessary changes for a more fulfilling and balanced life. Don't miss out on this opportunity to find practical advice and encouragement for your own journey!

Sheri Miter Serial Entrepreneur

Sheri Miter is a serial entrepreneur. Her first business was selling painted rocks to neighbors when she was 7! This entrepreneurial spirit led her to many failures but also some huge successes, such as a Chimney Cleaning business with her husband Tom, a professional firefighter, and eventually a business as a Mary Kay sales director. While in Mary Kay, Sheri led her team to six-figure years multiple times, and YES, she drove the iconic pink Cadillac for part of her career!

Despite her success as a Sales Director in Mary Kay, Sheri found herself at a crossroads after 25 years. She began to question if this was the path she truly wanted for the next decade of her life. Even after achieving her best year, she felt a sense of weariness and asked herself, 'Is it ever going to be enough?' This internal struggle led her to a brave decision- to step away from her role as a Sales Director and embark on a new journey. This journey led her to become a Gallup Certified CliftonStrengths Coach. Today, Sheri has crafted a life she loves, assisting other highly successful women to discover their 'what’s next' career. She is passionate about working with women who have achieved success making the money, but are now eager to make an impact by unleashing their God-given strengths and embracing their true calling!

When Sheri isn’t busy with her clients or recording a new podcast, she cherishes her time with her grandkids and embarks on exciting adventures with her husband. Their escapades often include the beach, biking, or out boats. At the end of a fulfilling day, they savor the beauty of the sunset with a cocktail in hand, a testament to Sheri's belief in enjoying life's journey.

Sheri’s Top 5 CliftonStrengths: Futuristic, Maximizer, Self-Assurance, Command, Strategic.

Her motto is “Life is way too short, so we HAVE to enjoy the journey.”
