When life throws you curveballs, how do you catch them? Pia Coyle, managing director of PHD Sydney, joins us on the latest episode of Uncomfortable Growth® Uncut to discuss just that. Her journey is not just a story of career success; it’s a tale of personal upheaval, resilience, and the power of vulnerability.
Pia’s life was a set menu of societal expectations: first boyfriend turned into marriage, children, and a stable job. But what happens when the menu gets tossed aside? For Pia, a divorce after 20 years of marriage was the catalyst for profound self-discovery.
Pia’s openness about the struggles of single parenthood, the complexities of dating after divorce, and the rediscovery of personal passions like swimming and tarot cards, paints a picture of a woman reborn through her challenges.
But Pia’s story is more than just personal growth. It’s about how personal change can lead to self-belief, which drives professional transformation. She talks about authentic leadership, the importance of connection, and how vulnerability can become a strength in the workplace.
Through her experience, Pia demonstrates that being grateful and accepting our whole selves, including the messy parts, can lead to a more fulfilling career, a more connected life and greater appreciation of the struggles that expand us.
Pia’s story is not just about getting back up after a fall; it’s about rising to heights never before imagined.
So, if you’re ready to be inspired, to reflect on your own life’s set menu, and to find out how to turn life’s curveballs into opportunities for growth, listen to this episode now.
