Writing Your Own Story: The Power of Vision and Goals with Bose Akadiri

Life Intended

In this episode, host Kelly Berry talks with Bose Akadiri, Founder of Goal and Grind. Bose shares her journey of making major pivots in her life and career, from moving to Chicago with no job or network to a distinguished career in Corporate Social Responsibility at Boeing, Salesforce, and JPMorgan Chase. She emphasizes the importance of finding joy in the four key areas of life: personal, professional, health, and financial.
Bose developed her vision and goals method, which consists of 5 steps involving meditation, identifying joy, creating a vision, setting goals, and building your support system. She also highlights the significance of knowing your worth and negotiating for what you need in order to show up fully in your professional life.
This conversation with Bose Akadiri focuses on the importance of setting clear goals and having a vision for the future. Bose shared her method of conceptualizing goals in 10-year, 5-year, and 1-year increments, which helps to provide clarity and direction. She emphasized the need to prioritize different areas of life at different times and to communicate these priorities with others. The conversation also touched on the significance of surrounding oneself with supportive and like-minded individuals, as well as the importance of asking for help and seeking guidance from those who have experience in the desired field.
