Face Front! Friday! Meeting the Magi

Have you ever been forced to find meaning, even redefine yourself… after losing something that once defined you?

When a setback cracked open the doorway to your strength?

You were forced to leave. To wander. To seek your answers elsewhere.

So you look for something more.

But instead, you find something different.

Something unexpected.

This happened to me… a few times actually.

Once, when my corporate life was driving me in a direction I didn’t want to go and so I left.

Uprooting my family. Breaking my career into pieces. It was not easy.

I met what I call the Marketing Magi, the scholars at the University of Michigan who helped me gain superpowers I never would have imagined.

Then, a few years later, at my next job, I was told it was time to leave. My powers had failed me.

I experienced my mentoring intervention at Northern Illinois University and learned to use and control my abilities in new ways.

The pain was real and the cures… and people who helped me find them… were more than I could have possibly expected.

Open yourself up to the wisdom and help of others. Maybe they will offer an idea or solution, cures from a surprising source that reveals a strength you didn’t know you had.

That’s your origin story beginning to reveal itself.

Will you share it?

That’s what You Own Your Origin Story (YOYOS) is all about: helping you see the power inside your own narrative.

I’ve got another one for you. See you here on Tuesday.

You own your origin story. Message me if I can help you claim it and build your superpower portfolio.
