Have you ever wondered what it truly takes to discover your life's calling?

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my journey of writing a book about this very topic, and I'm excited to share with you some of the most powerful insights I've gained along the way.

As I've been crafting this book and reflecting on my Discovering Your Calling Academy, I've realized just how transformative this process can be. Today, I'm giving you a sneak peek into four of the eight phases that I guide my students through, and that I'm exploring in depth in my upcoming book.

Key Points/Topics I Cover

• Why envisioning your ideal life is crucial (and the questions you need to ask yourself)
• How to leverage your strengths using CliftonStrengths (and when to dial them up or down)
• My unique approach to setting strengths-based goals (hint: it's not what you think)
• The power of discovering your deep “why” (and how to find it)
• A behind-the-scenes look at my book-writing process

Inspiring Quotes:

“You can't have success without sacrifice, but you can have success without sacrificing those you love.”

“If it's not on the calendar, it's not happening. It's not real.”

“Keep asking yourself, 'Why does that matter?' about seven layers deep. Because that's the why that will make you cry.”

Are you ready to start your own journey of discovery?

I invite you to reflect on these questions:

1. What does your ideal life look like in 5 years? 3 years? 6 months?
2. What's one small action step you can take tomorrow towards your dream life?
3. What's your deep, emotional “why” for wanting to discover your calling?

Join me next week as I tackle the question, “Is it Worth the Risk?” We'll explore the challenges and rewards of switching careers or starting a new business. And don't forget – you can now send me your questions or topic suggestions directly through the link in the show notes. I can't wait to hear from you!

I’d love to hear from you! Send me a direct message and let me know what you thought about this episode.

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.

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