    Joanne Lipman on Unlocking Your Next Chapter: The Power of Reinvention

    Joanne Lipman on Unlocking Your Next Chapter: The Power of Reinvention

    Are you ready to unlock the secrets of reinvention and take charge of your career and life? In this week's episode of "Reaching Your Goals," I had the absolute pleasure of hosting the incredible Joanne Lipman, who shares her insights from her latest book, "Next!: The Power of Reinvention in Life and Work." 📚
    Join us as we delve deep into the art of reinvention and discover the four crucial steps that can transform your life and career:
     
    1️⃣ Search: This step is about envisioning your future self. It's about realizing that reinventing yourself is not about becoming someone entirely new but finding a fuller expression of who you already are. 
    2️⃣ Struggle: This is where the real magic happens, even though it often gets left out in stories of reinvention. It's the messy middle when you've left one identity behind but haven't fully embraced the new one. 
    3️⃣ Stop: Stepping away from the problem or change you're wrestling with can be the turning point. Moments of reflection, sabbaticals, and unstructured time can lead to those much-needed epiphanies.
    4️⃣ Solution: This is when the transformation is complete. Joanne reminds us that past experiences and efforts, even if they feel like detours, contribute to where we ultimately land. 
     
    So, ask yourself, "What's next for me?" If you're unsure or seeking inspiration for a fresh start, this episode is a must-listen! Tune in now to "Reaching Your Goals" and embark on a journey of reinvention with Joanne Lipman! 
    ----more----
     
    Joanne's Bio:
    Joanne Lipman is the bestselling author of NEXT! The Power of Reinvention in Life and Work and the No. 1 bestseller That's What She Said. A pioneering journalist, she has served as Editor-in-Chief of USA Today, USA Today Network, Conde Nast Portfolio, and The Wall Street Journal's Weekend Journal, leading those organizations to six Pulitzer Prizes.
