Purposeful Pivoting with Kelly and Abigaile White The Serendipitous Rebel Podcast

Purposeful Pivoting: Kelly & Abigail White

Purposeful Pivoting with Kelly & Abigail White – The Mother Daughter Journey

In this week’s episode we are thrilled to invite Kelly and Abigail White from The Mother Daughter Journey to our podcast.

Kelly and Abigail are a mother/daughter team that started as partners running a travel business. They recently pivoted to The Mother Daughter Journey – a podcast and communications program that helps mothers and daughters strengthen bonds and work through communication issues.

This mother and daughter share their story of their pivot from working in corporate America at separate jobs, to opening their own travel agency. From there they once again pivot to The Mother Daughter Journey podcast where they share their journey to a better mother-daughter relationship. Krystal discusses all of this with them and also their desire to help others achieve a better mother-daughter relationship.

One of our biggest takeaways was how to listen to your inner voice that starts to tell you “this is no longer working” and then be brave enough to do something about it.

Working as a mother daughter team is not easy, but they have found that their story has changed the way they view the importance of the mother/daughter relationship. And they hope that their story invites others to do the same.

You can listen to their podcast, The Mother Daughter Journey on Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

You can listen to this episode on all the same channels. Enjoy!

So we pose these questions for you – what hats do you wear? Are you living a purposeful life?

When you are an entrepreneur you wear many hats. The 5 hats that Laura wears are:

Me
Mom
Wife
Business Partner

Let’s talk about the “Me” Hat

What is the “me” hat? It’s remembering who you are. Specifically remembering who you are when it is just YOU.

Purposeful Pivoting with Kristine Goad

Purposeful Pivoting With Kristine Goad

Is there that one thing that you have always wanted to do but are afraid to take the leap?

Did you know that you can learn from and transform your life just by conquering your fears?

Our guest Kristine Goad, owner of Surfing Your Edge Coaching, was just like (what we’re guessing) is you. She started her coaching business on a leap of faith and to conquer a fear.

In today’s episode, Kristine and Wendy talk about women who have that one thing that they want to do but shelve it because they were afraid or didn’t know where to start or just did not have the time.

For so many of us, we may not even realize it was a fear holding us back… it seems more like a distraction from something else important to us, so it’s easily justifiable, right?

As we chat about conquering fears, learning from mistakes and how perfection is not normal, think about what is the one thing that you would love to do but haven’t for one reason or another.

Spoiler alert: Wendy’s is surfing.

But we’d love to know, did something pop into your mind about this? Hit reply and let us know what it is.
