Sharpen Your Vision, Recharge Your Soul: The Leader's Roadmap to an Extraordinary 2024

As we close the books on another year, it's time to reflect, recharge, and set our sights on an extraordinary 2024. For financial and professional services professionals, this means:

  • Gratitude: Remember, behind the deals and docs, there's a human element. Take time to appreciate your clients, colleagues, and the privilege of shaping the financial landscape.

  • Perspective: Step away from the screen, reconnect with nature, and gain fresh perspective. A clear mind leads to sharper deals.

  • Renewal: Prioritize your well-being. Whether it's a mountain trek or a mindfulness practice, invest in activities that recharge your soul and fuel your drive.

  • Vision: Chart your course for the year ahead. Set ambitious goals, strategize with your team, and embrace the challenge of the climb.

  • Accountability: Someone beside you who can provide motivation, perspective, and insight to help you stay focused and energized to achieve your goals separates dreamers from achievers.

Let's make 2024 a year of not just closing deals, but closing the gap between ambition and fulfillment.

End of Year Gratitude

End of Year Gratitude

I began this year as a full-time employee for the parent company of America’s flagship PBS station with a great team and a fabulous boss. I laughed heartily with my colleagues, loved learning the television industry, and I was enthralled as a core member of the team that launched the company’s first free ad-supported streaming television (FAST) channel. In short, I had a great job, but there was a hollow pit in my gut that kept me from being truly fulfilled.

My turning point this year was when I changed my primary care physician. During my physical, he asked me if I’d ever had an anal Pap smear. Because we did this screening, we were able to see that I had abnormal cells. Biopsies in April and December showed that I have HSIL, a k a AIN III, a k a Stage 0 anal cancer.

So, why am I grateful?
