Seasons with Nobue Khumalo
Welcome to Seasons with Nobue Khumalo, a series where I sit down with some incredible people I have had the privilege of rubbing shoulders with, and we have a chat about the different seasons of our lives that we've been through. This is all in the hopes that you will feel seen, heard, and know that you are not alone.
I hope this feels like home, I hope you belong. I hope you stay.

The willingness to keep trying new things-different methods, uncomfortable tasks-when you are already an expert at something is what separates good from great. Focusing on your strengths is required for peak performance, but improving your weaknesses has the potential for the greatest gains. This is true for athletes, executives, and entire companies. Leaving your comfort zone involves risk, however, and when you are already doing well, the temptation to stick with the status quo can be overwhelming, leading to stagnation. — Garry Kasparov and Mig Greengard, Deep Thinking
