Getting Clear on What You Really Want in Midlife with Bonnie Wan, author of The Life Brief
My guest today, Bonnie Wan, partner and head of brand strategy at Goodby Silverstein & Partners, is so brilliant and possibly one of the most lovely, empathetic, and big-hearted women I've ever had the honor to meet. She's so creative and has many awards and accolades, yet she’s so down to earth and approachable.
She just wrote The Life Brief, A Playbook for No Regrets Living. It's available for pre-order now and will be published in January 2024.
I had the opportunity to hear Bonnie speak about The Life Brief at an event, and one of its core questions is: What do you want? And, damn, if this isn't the most challenging question to ask yourself. She had all of us in tears because it’s very emotional when you write down what you want!
Bonnie used The Life Brief in her marriage, with her children, career, and more. Sometimes, the most complex question in life is WHAT DO YOU WANT and Bonnie will take us thru her process on how to excavate the answer on today’s episode. I can't wait for you to get to know her and soak up her fabulous knowledge and big heart.
You are going to walk away from this episode totally transformed and inspired!
