Join me for an inspiring and uplifting conversation with Tama Kieves. Tama, an honors graduate from Harvard Law School dared to leave her lucrative partnership track at a prestigious law firm to follow her dream of becoming a writer. We had the opportunity to discuss many of the amazing insights from her most recent book is Thriving through Uncertainty: Moving Beyond Fear of the Unknown and Making Change Work for You.


If you are ready to go where you have never been before, then you will want to dive into this juicy episode! 



In this episode, you will learn:

  • “It’s ok to feel as though you don’t know what’s going on. You don’t. You can’t supervise creativity, alchemy, reinvention, evolution, and the divine flower rearrangement of your life.” (4:48)
  • How do we let go of control especially when we want to know what’s going on. (5:06)
  • How do we TRUST? How do we TRUST CREATIVITY? (5:49)
  • With UNCERTAINTY all your usual ways fail. We think, if only I work harder, if only I kill myself trying,  if I deny my feelings, if I just be what everybody else wants me to be, then it will all work out. (6:00)
  • UNCERTAINTY pushes us to a place where we have to let go and we have to TRUST that there is something else going on. (6:32)
  • We are born for these times, we have the resources within us to deal with it. There is something in each of us that came to rise in a way that we have never risen before. (6:52)
  • One of the best practices is to know that there are always two different voices within us, the voice of FEAR and the voice of LOVE. The voice of FEAR can sound very practical like it’s the voice of good judgment. (9:34)
  • We are here at this time to learn how to follow that instinctive voice that will take each one of us to places we could never have imagined. (16:19)
  • What do you love? What lights you up? (21:41)
