I don't think your job is your purpose. I also think that it's cool to have a job that you don't care about. — Michelle Pellizzon
Bad advice that often comes from the wellness and self-help space that says you have to burn the boats or you have to go all in on your business. There's an immense privilege that comes with being able to go all in in an entrepreneurial journey and be able to quit your day job to run your business.
Your right now job might not be your purpose. That's okay because there is something to learn at every single job that we have. - Michelle Pellizzon
Your job might not be your purpose. And that's okay, because there is something to learn at every piece of work that we do. - Michelle Pellizzon
I thought my job had to be my life. I felt so fulfilled, yet it was the very same thing that burned me out so much. I was so exhausted and so tired. — Michelle Pellizzon
Our shadow is where our brilliant, most inspired ideas come from. I think many people who start brilliant and inspired businesses start them based off their shadow, to call their shadow in and to do shadow work themselves. - Michelle Pellizzon
Especially in the intuitive entrepreneurial space it can feel like, you have to start your own business in order to be a "intuitive entrepreneur". I just don't believe that. - Michelle Pellizzon

[00:05:16] Michelle: I thought my job had to be my life. I felt so fulfilled. Yet, it was the very same thing that burned me out so much. I was so exhausted and so tired
[00:07:35] Michelle: Your job might not be your purpose. And that's okay because there is something to learn at every piece of work that we do.
[00:08:55] My goal is to be myself and learn from every relationship, every job, and every opportunity.
[00:09:57] Stop struggling so much. Stop trying so hard. Start picking up the skills that you want to master and put your focus on them.
[00:12:39] You must be ready when the opportunity to start your own business or company comes up. In the meantime, go flex your skills and work for other people and test on their own dime --- not yours!
[00:13:25] Michelle shared her motivation in creating the Profitable Content Creator Lab, which opens on April 19th.
[00:15:07] Recession-proof Skills in year 2020 was the highest attended series of classes of Holisticism so far. It is designed applicably for everyone, especially to aid those whose plans were shattered due to the pandemic.
[00:15:28] A lot has happened during the pandemic --- such as losing clients, cuttings costs and even manpower, business bankruptcy, etc.
[00:16:49] There are two groups of people, the service-based entrepreneurs, and those who want and need to work for them.
[00:20:38] “I want to have all the options and all the possibility and the flexibility and the personal sovereignty to make those choices for myself.”
[00:21:25] You can be massively successful as an entrepreneur and still keep your day job.
[00:22:33] There are so much that we can learn from the businesses and companies that we work for, and from the jobs that we do.
[00:23:12] Just because it's your nature doesn't mean it's right.
[00:23:31] Life does not exist in the black and in the white. It exists in the middle, in the gray and two things can be true, so it does not have to be either.
[00:24:44] Chaos is where you can survive, where you thrive, where you come out.
[00:29:00] You know you are doing it right when you can replicate results consistently with different variables.
