ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Your body will speak to you – first in a whisper, then in a shout -- that your work is out of alignment with your purpose. In this episode of the Infuse Compassion podcast, Amy and Mark reflect on their conversation with Jen Pestikas, founder of Brave Women at Work, and share their own stories of how their bodies “keep score” when they ignore inner signals. They unpack what it feels like physically, mentally, and emotionally when you’re off-purpose—and what shifts when you finally listen. Amy and Mark also explore the fears that surface when considering a career leap, and practical steps to move through those fears with compassion. In this conversation, you’ll learn: - How to notice the body’s early warning signs that your work is out of alignment - Common fears around taking a career leap—and how to face them - Ways to find people who build your energy (and gently step back from those who drain it) - How to share your positive energy to support others’ dreams The episode closes with a challenge: bring intentional, uplifting energy to someone this week as a way to infuse compassion.
