In today's episode Pete is joined by award-winning HR professional commonly known as the “HR Force of Nature”, Brenda Neckvatal to discuss her story and how she got to where she is today. Together they talk through deciding when to change your own narrative, how to have fire in the belly is to have gumption and desire and the importance of being open to anything and everything.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Fire in the belly is your gumption. It is your desire for life and the big furnace inside you that keeps you going. If you do not have fire in the belly then you are not living, you're just existing. Nobody should be on this planet to just exist, everyone should be out there trying to live.

 
We all have a narrative of how we see our life and where we see it going. What we don’t realise is that we are the author of that narrative and we can change it anytime we want to. There is nothing easy about doing it but you can change it anytime you want. It is all dependent on whether you want to put the time in to change it.

 
Finding the right people in life and attaching your loyalties appropriately is a great way to further yourself. Let go of the people in your life that are not on the same page as you. As you grow older you will become a better judge of character.

 
When you drop what you think you know and you are open to anything and everything, your eyes are widened. Your aperture opens up, you may not always like it and may not like what you find in the process or what you see in the mirror but it is much better to be open than closed.

 

 

BEST MOMENTS 

“Nobody trusts anything but yet everyone is willing to listen to it.”

“Nobody should be on this planet to just exist.”

“We all have a narrative.”

“I am a very loyal person.”
