    About this Episode

    Are traditional career systems fair? 

     

    How do you know you have optimized your career progression? 

     

    At the end of the day, we want a fair system where we can earn fair pay and where we are rewarded for the work that we do, regardless of our skin color, regardless of our gender. More than just talking about the eradication of the parity gap that exists. I want to talk about how we can revolutionize how we approach career advancement. 

     

    Mary describes the reason why traditional career advice is failing for everyone, regardless of gender and race. Furthermore, the career advancement misconception and how people can take a better approach to career advancement. 

     

    An approach that feels good for the employee and the employer. An approach that yields the results you want without all of the guesswork. 

     

    In Today’s Episode, We Discuss:

     

    • How is the traditional career system failing [01:27]
    • Where are we going wrong as a society with the way career advancement has been set up [04:04]
    • We are still operating in the same traditional career advice that has been passed down for a century  [5:09]
    • Mary’s vision and mission [06:34]

    Embrace the Container: How to Declutter and Optimize Your Life for Success

    Embrace the Container: How to Declutter and Optimize Your Life for Success

    Embrace the Container: How to Declutter and Optimize Your Life for Success

    Welcome back to the Mary Guirovich Show. This episode is inspired by Mel Robbins' life-altering podcast that opened my eyes to the beauty of 'embracing the container.' Here, I discuss how this simple concept has influenced my recent trip to Pittsburgh, how it's busted myths around decluttering, and more importantly, how it's transformed my outlook towards life and career.

    The container concept goes beyond tidying up physical spaces; it’s a philosophy that empowers you to release anything that doesn’t serve you, whether it's a cluttered closet or a cluttered mind. I’m looking forward to inviting Dana White, the guest on Mel Robbins’ show, to further discuss this amazing decluttering concept.

    In this episode, I touch upon the emotional process of releasing things that no longer serve us, and why it's important not to dwell on questions like 'do I love it?' or 'do I have a use for it?' when deciding what to keep. Using a simple story of my quest to find the perfect container for my crayons, I explore the idea of letting go of things that may be taking up too much space, both physically and emotionally.

    **Episode Highlights**

    **00:00** - Introduction: The beauty and power of 'embracing the container.' I reveal my source of inspiration and how this concept has changed my life.

    **03:36** - I debunk myths around decluttering and explain why it's so much more than just an aesthetic practice.

    **05:06** - The story of the red crayon bucket: A real-life example of the concept of containers, and how we sometimes need to downsize to make room for what truly matters.

    **08:09** - From bug killers to pens: A discussion on the necessity of choosing what to keep and what to release.

    **09:42** - Reflections on intentional living: The power of decluttering in propelling you towards your life and career goals.

    **12:44** - Time management and prioritizing projects: A look into the role of 'containers' in organizing your life.

    **15:46** - Intentional Living and creating the life you want through mindful calendaring.

    **17:19** - The transformative power of the 'Container' philosophy in fulfilling our life's purpose.

    Remember, decluttering is a journey, not a destination. When the container is full, that is enough. Embrace the process and witness the transformation. Tune in for more insights on The Mary Guirovich Show
