    Is it Possible to Have a Fulfilling and Rewarding Career? With Stephen Shortt, Creator of Happy Work Life MAP, Founder of Happy People Project

    Is it possible to have a career that fulfills you and also brings you joy? My guest, Stephen Shortt, is here to answer that question. Stephen Shortt is an Irish entrepreneur, speaker, and career expert known as the HAPPY People Guy. His mission is simple: to make the world a better place with happy people in fulfilling, rewarding careers. He built the HAPPY framework not as a product, but as a lifeline — during a period when things weren't going the way he wanted, and he needed to figure out what actually mattered. Drawing on psychology, behavioral science, and hard experience, he distilled it into five elements: Highlights, Appreciation, Progress, People, and Your Contribution. The core idea is that happiness is progress towards purpose.  Through the HAPPY People Project, Stephen runs workshops and speaks at conferences, helping high achievers stop chasing the wrong finish line — and get clear on what they actually want, not just what they think they're supposed to want.  He's a member of Entrepreneurs' Organization, a former GSEA Global Chair, and runs ETC Consult in Dublin. He lives in a three-generation home with his wife and two daughters — and is quietly building the life on his own Happy Life List. He founded the Happy People Project and created the Happy Work Life MAP, a framework to help individuals and teams align work and life by design, not by default. In our episode today, Stephen unpacks the framework of his Happy Work Life MAP and how he specifically helps individuals and teams. He is also a career and talent specialist as well as a family business facilitator.    CONNECT WITH STEPHEN  Website - https://happypeopleproject.com / stephenshortt.com   CONNECT WITH DEBI Website – https://www.debironca.com Instagram - @debironca Email – info@debironca.com Free Group Coaching - https://debi.sequoiatransitioncoaching.com/group-coaching YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DebiRoncaOfficial   Check out my online course!

    How to Navigate a Significant Leadership Transition with Amy Throw, Leading Fashion Stylist and Executive Presence Coach

    You are a seasoned and established leader, and opportunity knocks at your door for another level of authority.    What happens if you say yes to your next transition in leadership? My guest, Amy Throw, answered this call and is here to share her experience. Amy has spent over 15 years in the styling and fashion industry, helping women build confidence, poise, and influence by aligning who they are with how they are experienced in every room they enter.    Although widely recognized as an expert fashion stylist and Executive Presence Coach, she joins us today to pull back the curtain on a different kind of transformation. A significant leadership transition. Recently, a promotion took her from leading a team of 20 to directing 56 people—many of whom had just been her peers. For a leader naturally wired for fast-paced action, this next chapter demanded a complete shift in mindset.  She had to intentionally slow down, reshape her rhythm, and learn to cast a higher-level vision while developing leaders who could grow their own teams with clarity. Amy understands that even the best of leaders have seasons of growth, and her story will inspire you to take that next step and increase your level of impact not only in your life, but in those you are called to lead.    CONNECT WITH AMY Website: https://www.cabionline.com/?pws=styledwithsoul Coaching Website: http://www.amythrow.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/styledwithpurposebyamy/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/styledwithpurposebyamy   CONNECT WITH DEBI Website – https://www.debironca.com Instagram - @debironca Email – info@debironca.com Free Group Coaching - https://debi.sequoiatransitioncoaching.com/group-coaching YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DebiRoncaOfficial   Check out my online course!
