Four years ago Teanca Shepherd was burnt out and craving a change. So she picked up and moved about as far away from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania as you can get—all the way to Japan. She taught English in Japan for two years, but making a dramatic change hadn’t suddenly solved all of her problems. She was still unsure of what she really wanted out of life, and the clock was ticking loudly on her remaining time overseas. It was at this point that Teanca discovered The Passion Profile Quiz and reached out to us. After coaching with me (Rachel) for a couple months, she felt clear about what she wanted, but her dream job hadn’t instantly landed in her lap … and it didn’t, for another two years. When Teanca emailed me to tell me that she had FINALLY found her dream job, she said that she was SO glad that she waited, even though it had taken so much longer than she had hoped. For that reason alone, I HAD to have Teanca on the podcast. We all (myself included) need to know—how do you weather rejection, uncertainty, fear, and doubt for YEARS, without giving up or losing your faith? So, on this interview with a “normal person” I talk to Teanca about that, and:  How she stopped seeking approval, got over her passivity, dropped her people-pleasing habits, and learned how to speak up (&amp; the specific homework I gave her that helped with this) Why your life sometimes NEEDS to be hard, and how you can weather tough times with confidence How she ended up on a team where people root for her success, naps are encouraged, and creativity is a virtue Why your desperation to get a dream job may be the very thing preventing it from happening Why you shouldn’t give in to the temptation to tell people what you think they want to hear in interviews, PARTICULARLY when you really want the job  After you’ve listened, leave a comment to let us know how Teanca’s wisdom has resonated with you! FREE WORKSHOP ON SEPTEMBER 25! We’re hosting a free, LIVE online workshop on Tuesday, September 25 at 1pm Eastern, and we’d love for you to be there! How to figure out what to do with your life in 2 steps If you’re been feeling stuck, overwhelmed, confused, and uncertain about your direction in both your life and career, this is a REALLY great place for you to start. Obviously there are way more than just TWO steps when it comes to figuring out what to do with your life, but we’re going to get your momentum going with two big ones, and send you off feeling more clear and at ease than you’ve likely felt in a long time. We only do these kind of free workshops a few times per year, so join us while you can! There WILL be a free replay video for people who register, so sign up even if you can’t be there live. GET ON THE PPVE VIP LIST! Our twice-yearly online group coaching program, the Passion Plan Virtual Experience, is going to be opening for enrollment on Tuesday, September 25! It’s a 5-ish week course (with a mix of pre-recorded videos, workbooks assignments, and live Google hangouts with the two of us) that helps you figure out what to do with your life. Think of it as the “AP Life” class you should have taken in high school, but never got the chance! If you’re on the VIP list, you’ll be the first to know about our early bird pricing and the handful of free coaching sessions we’re going to be giving away! We’re only taking 50 people in this round, and enrollment is first-come, first-served. If you want in, you’ll definitely want to be on this list. Join the VIP list here.
