If Your Every Action Speaks a Need, What Message Are Your Actions Sending‪?‬ Making Space for Conversations That Matter with Laura Prisc

    • Ledarskap

Part of Sanni’s backstory is this: “A few years ago, I was working full-time at a software company in Seattle when I decided to quit my job and begin living a more transient, outdoor-oriented life. My time on the road made me realize how often we make life decisions according to a template – one that was not chosen for us or designed for us, simply a product of what is usually done. But I believe that life starts happening when you make it, and it can be perfectly your creation. Too often we hold back simply because we're not sure of what's possible…” 
 
Since leaving full-time corporate work, Sanni has built a coaching business and is the co-founder of an experience series called OutWild… a combination of personal growth and outdoor adventure (which often challenges us and leads to deeper insight and understanding – more personal growth!). She’s also what Laura considers an “intrepid communicator.”
 
 Laura invited Sanni in for a Conversation That Matters, because her first exposure to Sanni demonstrated her willingness to wade into real, timely, authentic, vulnerable communication about things that really matter to her. It’s a rare trait and one Laura believes we all long to develop and wish for in the people we are close to. 
 
Over the course of their conversation, Laura and Sanni share philosophies, ideas, and experiences with their respective coaching clients and the work they feel called to do in the world. One commonality is their shared understanding that “what everyone else is doing isn’t necessarily right for us.” Far too often, we follow the paths others tell us we “should” be on, and “should” feel lucky to take… but that doesn’t always lead us to where we – as unique individuals – are supposed to be. 
 
They also discuss self-awareness, the prevalence of “busy-ness” that is consuming our lives and making us less effective and creative than we are meant to be; they dive into what it means – individually – to meditate or seek stillness and just listen… and Sanni introduces the concept of taking “a slow walk” when it’s time for a time out.
 
Sanni’s Bio
 
Sanni McCandless has built a career around the intersection of life design and the outdoors. She works primarily as a transition coach for outdoor-focused individuals who want to create more tailored, intentional lifestyles and find agency in their own lives. In her work, she helps people overcome the doubts and concerns that constantly get in the way of living fearlessly and feeling fulfilled. Sanni challenges clients to communicate more honestly with those around them and achieve goals that have been on the back burner for far too long.

Sanni currently resides in Las Vegas, Nevada, where she enjoys year-round rock climbing and endless desert views.
