Navigating Change (PowerUp Podcast Guest)
Dec 23, 2021
If you’re like me, consistency is reassuring. It’s like a security blanket that “guarantees” things will be well. But if you’ve spent any time as a married couple and business owner, then you know the only guarantee is change.
Not only can change be uncomfortable but it can also create conflict in a marriage. So how do you deal with change?
Meet Andy and Janine Mason. They left the comfort of their home country of New Zealand and relocated to the U.S. 15 years ago without a clearly defined plan of what they were going to do once they arrived. They also had 4 young children.
They’ve had to navigate career changes, kids, writing books, moving to a new country halfway around the world and starting two projects and businesses together. Listen to this episode as they candidly share how they’ve been able to navigate change in life and business while prioritizing their marriage.
Key Takeaways:
