Building Doors with Lauren Karan

Success is living the life you choose for yourself- Shannah Kennedy

Shannah Kennedy is a leading business and life coach as well as a master strategist trusted by her clients across the spectrum of business, sport and entertainment.

She challenges people to rethink their relationships to work, wellbeing and life and works to help you discover who you really are without the title.

Shannah is currently working with a mix of C-suite executives, clients in transition (and/or suffering from burn out) business owners and high-potential staff.

She coaches the gap between where you are today and where you aspire to be in the future. She also supports people who feel exhausted and “need a new map”.

Her best-selling book “The Life Plan” is the basis of her transformative approach, developed over 20 years working with people seeking more meaningful lives.

She is recognised as one of Australia’s most influential life coaches featured in the Australian Financial Review, Huffington Post, The Sydney Morning Herald and Thrive Global.

Here in the episode with Shannah we learn how to lead a life of high-performance living and find a pathway that leads to true fulfillment in our lives.

We go through all aspects of life planning and meaning in this episode including:

· How we should be planning our life in seasons

· Using our life plan to define the parent we want to be

· Finding a career that supports our body and mind

· Defining who you are without your job

· Working through life as a perfectionist junkie

· The destruction of an achievement mindset

· How we can prioritise our recovery

· Finding a pathway that leads to true fulfilment in our lives

Shannah helps us uncover meaningful ways we can enjoy our journey to success while reminding us to constantly ask ourselves “Am I in the passenger seat or the driver’s seat of my life and how many hands are on the wheel?”.
