What if “good” is the enemy of “great”?
On this week’s Amputate to Elevate Success podcast, Jill Schulman gets candid about the tough choices that propelled her career.
She left behind a good job, good clients, and good income to pursue something greater.
Inspired by John Gordon’s wisdom, she recognized that courage requires amputating comfort.
Jill also warns leaders about the “comfort trap”, how taking the easy path repeatedly weakens resilience. And she redefines mindset as a warrior’s tool, not soft “woo-woo.”
Her insights are a roadmap for may leader facing high-stakes transitions.
