How Not To Let The World Get In The Way with Kena Paranjape -Season 1, Episode 8

A provocative perspective on outcome drivers in tough times.
Most of us know that to generate uncommon results, we need to act in uncommon ways… but we’re also evolutionarily programmed to see threats and focus on survival. So how can you swim against the tide in order to find opportunities where everyone sees only challenges?
In this episode we are joined by Kena Paranjape to talk about how to peel away from the crowded gloomy group and think of recessionary times in order to find and create unbelievable opportunities.
This conversation went DEEP! I love Kena’s quintessential entrepreneurial journey from a side hustle creating the ‘perfect robe’ while being VP of merchandising for Houseplant to helping women define their authentic lives and journey beyond the successful career.
If you’re finding yourself surrounded by negative news, and limitations and generally sucked into the doom and gloom this conversation is for you. We talk about how we’ve both overcome the odds, multiple times, and what we think allowed us to do that including:
Your Bubble: sometimes having a difficult internal circumstance can galvanize and insulate you
Going All In: deciding what you want and committing to your ’mission’ without a fallback
Assigning Meaning: our experiences are shaped by the meaning we assign, how to shape your own narrative rather than taking on the fear or meaning of the masses
Catching the Adventure rather than Hanging onto Past: when things are disrupted you have the opportunity to explore the possibilities,
Your Personal Brand: all the skills, experience, and wisdom that aren’t on your LinkedIn.
