Sheri Miter (Host):
Something super exciting is about to happen on the Discovering Your Calling podcast, something that can possibly change your life. You've probably heard me talking about it over the past few episodes, and today I'm finally ready to divulge the details. Don't miss a second of this episode.

[00:00:48]
Sheri Miter:
Welcome back. I am your host, Sheri Miter. If you've been listening to any of the episodes over the last few months, you might know that I've been devoting my time to writing a book about the Discovering Your Calling Academy, which is my signature course. This course takes clients on a journey to understand their natural talents, connect with their passions, uncover their purpose, and create a new career that aligns with their ideal life, leading to more joy and fulfillment.

The Discovering Your Calling Academy is based on four core elements and eight phases, or as I like to call them, waypoints. These are the exact steps I used to figure out my "what’s next" when I hit a wall in my career four years ago, and I knew I needed to change. Honestly, I didn't even realize I was going through these steps until I looked back over the past three years.

[00:01:50]
Sheri Miter:
During that time, I wasted a lot of money on the wrong courses, got lost, took detours, hit dead ends, and tried things that didn’t work. But eventually, I found what did work, which led me to my true calling. Now, it’s these same steps that I take my students through in a three-month timeframe—much faster than the three years it took me—and these are the steps I'm writing about in my book.

Here’s the big news: I’m offering you a chance to experience these eight waypoints for free! (Cue confetti cannon!)

[00:02:46]
Sheri Miter:
I’ve put together an eight-week Discovering Your Calling challenge, which is a combination of podcasts (what you're listening to now) and a private Facebook community created just for this challenge.

Before I give you all the details, I want to clarify who this challenge is for. I mention this in my book, and I’ll share it with you now:
This challenge is for you if...

[00:03:25]
Sheri Miter:
...you’re at a point in your career where you feel like an imposter. Not because you don’t deserve your success—you absolutely do—but because you’re wondering if you truly belong where you are anymore.

It’s also for you if you’ve achieved success, accolades, and paychecks, but deep inside, you’re questioning it all. Maybe, like me, you’ve even asked yourself or told your best friend, “Is it ever going to be enough?”

If you're finding yourself asking these questions or feeling like life is slipping by too fast, this challenge is definitely for you.

[00:04:58]
Sheri Miter:
Maybe you’re a network marketing leader who grew your side hustle into a full-time business, but now you’re looking for something new. Or maybe you’re a mom returning to the workforce after raising your family. If any of this resonates with you, I’d love for you to join me over the next nine weeks for the Discovering Your Calling 8-Week Challenge.

Here’s what’s in store for you...

[00:05:53]
Sheri Miter:
Each week, I’ll be sharing the eight key waypoints from the Discovering Your Calling signature program. And week nine will be a bonus episode on mastering your mindset.

[00:06:09]
Sheri Miter:
During this challenge, you’ll learn why traditional career guidance can sometimes lead people astray, bouncing from career to career, never finding true fulfillment. Maybe you've experienced that.

The waypoints we’ll cover include:

• Waypoint 1: Navigating your strengths—discover your natural talents and turn them into superpowers.
• Waypoint 2: Visionary your life—get a clear, vivid picture of your ideal lifestyle.
• Waypoint 3: Skill set and energy flow—align your skills with what energizes you.
• Waypoint 4: Values, passions, and dreams—uncover what truly makes you tick.
• Waypoint 5: Finding your purpose-driven problem—identify the problem you're called to solve.
• Waypoint 6: Impact and income—ensure your career idea is financially sustainable.
• Waypoint 7: Strength-based goal setting—set meaningful goals aligned with your strengths and purpose.
• Waypoint 8: Creating your personal calling mind map—craft your roadmap for a successful future.

Week nine will focus on mindset mastery—overcoming self-doubt and embracing your greatness.

[00:13:05]
Sheri Miter:
This challenge is not passive. You’ll be doing the work, but I’ll guide you through every step of the way. The goal is to help you create a clear and actionable roadmap that aligns your career with your dream life.

[00:14:15]
Sheri Miter:
If you’re interested, you can join the challenge for free by listening to the podcast each week and joining the private Facebook community, where I’ll provide extra support and pop-up trainings. The workbook that accompanies the Discovering Your Calling Academy will be available for download during the challenge as well.

For those looking for more personalized guidance, I’m offering a limited-space VIP Coaching Experience. You’ll receive a free CliftonStrengths assessment, two 1:1 coaching sessions, group coaching via Zoom, and early access to my new book—all for $347.

[00:16:35]
Sheri Miter:
If this resonates with you, please join me. I’m excited to help you step into your calling, and I can't wait to see what you accomplish in these next nine weeks.

[00:19:45]
Sheri Miter:
As we wrap up, I just want to say that I know you’ve secretly wanted to quit your job or start something new, but the fear of failure holds you back. I’ve been there. But I promise, when you give yourself space to dream again, you’ll discover a life of fulfillment, freedom, and joy.

You can do this, and I’m here to show you how.

[00:22:06]
Sheri Miter:
Join me for the Discovering Your Calling 8-Week Challenge, and I’ll see you next week for Waypoint #1. Let’s embark on this journey together!
