Overcoming Your Addiction to the Status Quo
This episode of the Living to 100 Club Podcast invites as its guest Kathryn Burmeister to discuss addiction to the status quo. Kathryn is an attorney, coach, author, and public speaker. Kathryn’s message to her clients is that we do not have to reach rock bottom before we make changes in our life or the pathway we are on. She shares her experiences and her recommendations about being restricted by our internal and external expectations. This is what she refers to as the “status quo.” We also discuss overcoming adversity, taking control of our future, and creating balance in our work and family life. Listen to our conversation about starting out with small steps on a new journey – without fear or anxiety. And learn more about how to bridge old and new interests as we take those small steps.
