Setting the pace on the pursuit of happiness. This is the Ken Coleman show where you discover what you were born to do and how to make it happen.

Now helping you get unstuck and on the path to your dream job, Ken Coleman.

Coming to you live from Ramsey Studios in Nashville, I am Ken and you are joining a conversation about who you are, what you were created to do, where you want to do it, and how you can get there.

Yes, it's not political talk. You figured it out. Wait a second. This is a different kind of deal. Yeah.

We're talking about your purpose. We're talking about what you were created to do in your work. So we're talking about your contribution.

You were created to fill a unique role. Through your work, in the workplace, somebody out there needs you to be the best version of you.

So all of a sudden it becomes, wait a second, this isn't about selfish ambition and making a bunch of money. We're all fine with making a bunch of money.

This isn't about just achieving greatness so everybody can look at me and say, oh, you're great. No, this is about showing up and being who you're supposed to be because that means you're going to bless others with the results of your work. That's what we're talking about.

844-747-2577 is the number. 844-747-2577. Let's go first to Esther, who's on the line in Egan, Minnesota. Esther, you're on the Ken Coleman show.

Hi, Ken. I've been wanting to leave in Florida to go to Texas for the past two years, but it's been new director.

I've been a director by people in my life that I was bested or I just cared way too much about their opinion. So right now I'm in the lead and I don't get Google, so I can leave it until next week, most likely.

And I've been also connecting with different teachers in the state to find teaching positions here. So I'm just kind of looking for your suggestions.

If being able to leave works will be your suggestion being that I want to really type time crunch and then if not, what is your suggestion for a fan of preparing myself?

Okay, Esther, let's do this real quick. Can you move your phone close to your mouth and talk to me? Let me see, because I'm having a hard time picking up some of the things you're saying. Let's try that.

Sure, are you able to hear me now? Are you able to hear me now?

That's way better. So it's okay. I was trying really hard. I didn't want to interrupt you. Bottom line is you want to move to a new state and be a teacher in another state. Is that right?

Yes, I'm on a tight time crunch and I'm also on a leave. So I'm also asking like what was your suggestion to prepare maybe while I'm waiting?

Okay, did you say you're on a leave?

On a lease. I am so sorry. I'm having the hardest time. Okay, so you're on a lease. Are you talking about your house? A car? What are we talking about?

A apartment.

Okay, and when is the when is when do you have to be out?

Well, I won't be able to be out until next year. I asked him if I would be able to leave. They wouldn't be able to give me approval until next week.
