Although Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva is known as ‘The Reinvention Guru’ and ‘The Queen of Reinvention’ today, she wasn’t always so quick to embrace change — and, in this episode, she shares an incredible story of transformation and some practical strategies you can leverage to embrace change in your life.
What do you think about change?
A lot of people say they hate change — but, according to our guest today, they’re wrong. We’re all born with the innate desire to change, we’re all wired to evolve, but then we’re conditioned to avoid it. Society often punishes failure, so we learn to avoid it, but we’re really just learning to avoid change.
But what would happen if you told a baby to stop trying to walk every time it stood up?
Sure, it’d be a little safer in the short-term. It might not bump its head as many times. But what would it be missing? A whole life! Yet, most of us go through so much of our lives avoiding change.
So, today, we sit down with Dr. Nadya Zhexembayeva, who has been dubbed ‘The Reinvention Guru’ and ‘The Queen of Reinvention’ for her work as a business owner, educator, speaker, and author specializing in reinvention.
Dr. Zhexembayeva is going to help you reframe change and failure as opportunities so that you can more easily embrace change and all of that good that follows. She has her own incredible story of transformation that is just so inspiring, and we think it’s so important to share these human stories because then we’re able to see what’s possible in our own lives.
