Expanding Work and Managing Disappointment

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/1824871/fan_mail/new] In this midseason episode Karin and Gloria discuss their experiences of working toward building professional networks and opportunities for their work. Business ventures, collaborations, and/or extensions of offerings can be emotionally draining and a place of vulnerability when we're not sure about who to work with and how personalities and processes will mesh even if on paper it looks like values and vision match. Gloria notes how following intuition helped guide her to follow through on an opportunity when other options didn't work out. Karin acknowledges actively learning to let go of disappointment so it doesn't derail her goals. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ National hotline numbers:  * National Suicide Prevention Lifeline: 988 * BIPOC LGBTQ+ Call BlackLine: 800-604-5841 * LGBT National Hotline: 888-843-4564 * LGBT under 25 Youth Talkline: 888-234-7243 * LGBTQ ages 13-24 Youth Trevor Project Line: 866-488-7386 * SAGE LGBT Elder Hotline: 877-360-5428 * Trans Lifeline: 877-565-8860 * Native StrongHearts Helpline: 844-762-8483 * Wildflower Alliance Peer Support Line: 888-407-4515 * Crisis Text Line: 741 741, text "start" * Pep-talk Hotline featuring elementary school children: 707-873-7862 Search the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI) website for local resources: https://www.nami.org Questions or comments?
