Summary: On today’s podcast, I introduce a new friend who truly embodies the meaning of a successful “PIVOT by design”: Cathy Demers, founder and CEO of BusinessSuccess.com. Cathy shares her pivot from the “pressure cooker” of a publicly traded company (that she founded and took public) to a business she loves and the blessing of being a lifestyle entrepreneur. Cathy’s struggle with a stress-based illness and the often conflicting interests of corporate life, drove her determination to conquer how to become successful in business, without paying the prices she previously paid. She too dismisses the myth of “balance”, and instead advocates for taking a longer term approach to holding a vision, redefining what success means, and then “relaxing into it”. Cathy and I also talk about success rituals and the creative tension between wanting to build something really big and exciting - and enjoying the process along the way.<br> <br> <p>Enjoy more episodes of The Conscious PIVOT Podcast at <a href="https://www.adammarkel.com/" target="_blank" rel="external noopener noreferrer">AdamMarkel.com</a> or download them on your favorite podcast player.</p><br> <p>Looking for more wisdom, resources and support for your own business or personal pivot?
