FROM WAITING TO BUILDING.

...but before we even got to the execution there was a big clarity piece because there was a lot of directions to go and you never know what's going on in the market... when you first came in here what were you originally committed to at first

at first coming in to career evolved I remember having that conversation with Olivia right on our first run and it was really about landing my next fortune 100 W2 kind of executive level role and position to get me to where I was before right and so that was my initial lens and initial focus coming on board with career evolved

we don't wait for the market we need to control ourselves... and a lot of this had to also deal with who you are as a person because you do take care of some loved ones at home that has also transformed your life and that's a big deal because if you had done HCA that would have required you to move maybe on their terms versus your own

so part of this clarity in the process was hang on let's put the market on hold... and that was a triggering point for us as well because that completely changed the strategy

i just stumbled on that conversation with you ryan right at some point i'm saying you know i've been doing consulting and part of which has been in the communication space as well and so that was when i think the light bulb started to get brighter right

so that high level strategy piece on how we pivoted now we of course get into the weeds right and what we did... we're like okay let's break apart this business let's see where there's opportunities... let's see how career evolved can expand upon it right let's see how we can blow this thing up and wow there's a lot of great opportunity here with banks on the consulting side on the finance side on the op side on the tech side there's a lot here

i gave matt a call and said i think this is a perfect company for your former boss... let's see if we can do this opportunity

there's an aspect to interviewing in the doctor framework that is so important on that promoter phase because matt doesn't have to do anything he doesn't have to promote you... you have to serve the promoter in order to serve the organization

i went in just from the outlook of position myself right in the best light possible of course get to learn from him as well and learn from his background learn from his experiences

i laid that table out with matt to let him know what my capabilities are but what i also know the capabilities of the organization is and how we can deliver to potential clients potential partners

...that conversation of course led us to where we are today to the signed offer

she took a break from her vacation and sitting by the beaches in Italy to talk to Ada that's how much of a purpose they wanted to move with

i couldn't even believe sometimes that it's only been five months or so that we've been working together... i tell you ryan that we're joined at the hip now because this is a continuous relationship that i believe is just one that is divinely orchestrated to help unlock value
