Michele Rigby Assad, who is a "super spy" and a renown author, joins us to talk about her latest book, "Get off the X:  CIA's Secrets for Conquering Obstacles and Achieving your Life's Mission".  Michele spent 10 years working in the Central Intelligence Agency ("CIA") and is now an international corporate advisor, author and keynote speaker.  

Michele talks to us about:

  • How do you go through the process of joining the CIA?  How do you apply and how does the interview process work?  What types of folks are the CIA looking for?  
  • What is it like living in a war-torn country while working for the CIA?  What is a typical "day in the life" of a super spy?  
  • What does Michele imply when she says to "Get off the X"?  How do we apply the training she received in the CIA to real world examples?

After listening to Michele (and reading her book!), you will have a tool kit to "Get off the X" and achieve your life's mission.
