Mariette Frey and Ang Barnard, host of 'The Intentional Mind Podcast,' Life & Career Coach, and TedX speaker, explore topics such as career transitions, moving to new cities, and the value of research and planning when it comes to living intentionally. "If you put a little bit of time in to weigh your options and figure out where you're at, that could make such a difference." Emphasizing the need to be intentional about the choices we make and to align our actions with our values, it's the difference between reacting to your situation and intentionally designing your new life. They highlight the significance of surrounding ourselves with people who inspire us and can help us achieve our goals. In this conversation, Ang Barnard and Mariette Frey also discuss the importance of being intentional in career choices and moving to a new location and emphasize the need to research and weigh options before making decisions when choosing a career path or finding a new place to live. Highlighting the significance of having a clear vision and being curious about possibilities, the conversation touches on the mistakes people make in their careers, such as reacting instead of intentionally designing their path- shifting perspectives and reframing negative experiences. Overall, the conversation encourages listeners to approach career and life decisions with intention, a little bit of exploration and a lot of fun.
