Personal Development Mastery: Clarity for Midlife Professionals in Transition #062 Mid-life awakening, vulnerability, and the ROI of personal development, with Garry Turner.
Garry Turner has over 20 years of experience in international sales, business development, and relationship building. Combining this powerful mix of skills, he facilitates individual and team transformations as an interpersonal catalyst, and everything he does is driven by his two non-negotiable core values of growth and connection. He is also a podcaster, hosting the "Value through vulnerability" podcast.
Key takeaways:
• A mid-life awakening and an incredible journey of self-discovery
• The importance of an interpersonal catalyst
• Vulnerability: truly showing up as a human being without the need to be polished
• Investing in ourselves: the most important investment we'll ever make
• Becoming free from the story we tell ourselves
• Podcasting: having a new coach every week
Memorable quote:
"Firstly, you are enough - you don't need anything to validate who and what you are. Secondly, feel emotion - good, bad, negative, positive - it's just a data point of your experience in that moment, it doesn't mean anything."
-Garry Turner
