In this episode of Unconventional Wisdom about Conventional Wisdom, I sit down with Ashley Bundis for an honest and reflective conversation about leadership, growth, and the realities of navigating change over the course of a career.
Ashley and I talk openly about what it means to evolve professionally when the path forward isn’t always clear or linear. She shares insights from her own journey, and together we explore how experience, perspective, and self-awareness shape the way we lead, make decisions, and define success for ourselves.
We dig into important topics including:
Trusting your instincts when facing career transitions
Letting go of outdated or inherited definitions of success
How confidence shifts over time—and how doubt still shows up
The role of self-awareness in effective leadership
Navigating change without forcing yourself into conventional expectations
This conversation is thoughtful, grounded, and deeply relatable for anyone questioning their next step or reassessing what growth really looks like at this stage of life.
If you’re looking for reassurance that you don’t need all the answers to move forward—just honesty, reflection, and the willingness to listen to yourself this episode is for you.
