232: Geoff Blades on Doing What You Want in Life & Work

What can a former Wall Street High Roller teach us about playing our position with more dignity, grace, and courage so that we experience more success and satisfaction?

 

Turns out, plenty.

 

Twenty years, Geoff Blades was sitting in his Wall Street office and asked himself the question that would ultimately change his life.

 

 

“Is this what I truly want?”

 

 

The answer to that question led Geoff on a personal transformation quest that he’s still on today. 

In today's episode, Mary Lou talks with author and former Goldman Sachs superstar Geoff Blades about how to design your life so that you can do what you want. Geoff's story about visiting the self-help section at Barnes and Noble for the first time is sure to put a smile on your face, as is his overall enthusiasm for life. Get ready for a boost of high energy! Geoff brings everything to this conversation and leaves nothing on the field. :-)
