What do you say when someone asks you to introduce yourself? If you’re anything like Kore Koubourlis, your answer is complicated and deeply personal. Our life experiences influence how we craft our identity and how it evolves over time. And sometimes, the person we become is endlessly surprising to us (and to our past selves).
Kore and I talk about it all. And how we’re constantly redefining ourselves in the face of change. We even talk about how we secretly want to be witches. (Still.)
Kore Koubourlis is a high-performance coach, talent expert, former Microsoft executive, and founder and principal of The Essential Group, a boutique talent development firm.

Christina Wallace is a self-described human Venn diagram with a career at the intersection of business, technology, and the arts. Through years of trial and error, Christina discovered that her seemingly unrelated talents and interests made her stronger, not unfocused. And she’s here to tell you how to lean into your own “portfolio life.”
An entrepreneur, author, and Harvard Business School senior lecturer, Christina shares her career path and life philosophy known as 'The Portfolio Life' (outlined in her book of the same name). Feeling lost after the shutdown of her first startup, Christina found her way forward by applying a diversification model from financial portfolios to her life. Living a portfolio life, she says, offers an advantage in navigating an uncertain and ever-changing world—and allows you to prioritize personal happiness over conventional definitions of success.

You’ve probably heard the old saying – “Find a job you love, and you’ll never work a day in your life.” For years, conventional wisdom around that first part – finding a job you love – was to do something with purpose and meaning to you.
But as we re-evaluate how work is working in the wake of the pandemic, we wanted to ask a different question: What purpose does work serve in our lives? In other words, what do we want work to do for us?
Adrian Granzella Larssen was the first managing editor at The Muse, a website that helps people navigate their careers. So she’s facilitated a lot of conversations about work. But Adrian has also been on her own journey to define––and redefine––the purpose of work, both before and after her years at The Muse. With some surprising revelations along the way.

Making decisions still feels hard. Not the everyday decisions like do I want my coffee black or with milk (although sometimes even that sends Lara down a rabbit hole). The decisions we still struggle with are the ones that feel bigger. Like do I want to take on this project? Or do I want to move?
In 2020, we heard a lot about “decision fatigue.” Our brains were tired because of the constant tiny decisions we had to make about safety. But after two years, shouldn't we be better at making choices after all that practice?
Kimberly Diggles says no.
In this week's episode, Lara and Kimberly talk about why decisions still feel hard––and the best way to think about making decisions now, even when the world feels like it’s on fire.
Kimberly Diggles is a licensed therapist and mental health expert living in Long Beach and working throughout California. Before she was a therapist, she was a person. A friend. A sister. A daughter. A partner. Rather than use personal challenges as a weakness and an excuse to withdraw from relationships, Kimberly strives to accept struggle as the catalyst that can bring her into closer connection with others.

Jacquette Timmons is a financial behaviorist. She believes that you don't manage your money. You manage your choices around money. Personal finance can be a tricky topic, especially if your finances were thrown into chaos by the pandemic. The choices we make around money seem especially relevant right now, as we find our way forward in 2022.

Lara chats with friends of the show Michaela Ayers and Jennifer McCord. We get real about how we’re navigating our awkward re-entry into the world as Covid restrictions lift. How we’re reconnecting with our people, our work, and ourselves after two plus years in pandemic isolation. And why astronauts might have advice for how to get back out there.
Michaela Ayers (she/her), a social justice facilitator turned entrepreneur, is revolutionizing the way individuals, organizations, and communities think about diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Michaela is the founder of Nourish, a social impact organization that is advancing DEI education through experiential learning and human connection. She is also the creator and host of Black Her Stories, a podcast that reshapes Black history through the inspiring stories of women you may never have heard of. Through nourishing conversations with leading writers, artists and entertainers, Michaela investigates what possibilities exist when creativity meets history.
Jennifer McCord (she/her) is an audio producer and editor/co-producer of She Knows the Way. She’s also worked as a project manager, a human resources professional, an apparel product line manager, and an improviser – so she’s spent most of her adult life figuring out how to listen. Jennifer is particularly interested in telling stories that are rooted in a sense of place, that map the gap between our thinking and our actions, or that explore the inextricable relationship between equity and design.

I don’t know about you, but lately I feel like a baby bird peeking my head over the edge of the nest, trying to figure out if it’s okay to jump. Or maybe a bear coming out of a looongggg hibernation is a better analogy. (A graceful bear, thank you very much.)
Either way, I’m slowly emerging from the much smaller world I’ve been living in since March of 2020, when this pandemic began.
And it makes me wonder if you’re feeling unsteady too, as you (hopefully, possibly?) begin to emerge.
