#135 From Misfit to Mission: Sara Lobkovich’s Guide to Achieving Big Goals – Part One
Descripción del Episodio
If you’ve ever felt like a misfit—an introvert, an ADHDer, a rebel, or a frustrated change-maker—this two-part series is for you. Our guest, Sara Lobkovich, proudly identifies with these groups and has turned her unique perspective into a source of strength.
After months of writing, Sara has crafted two books that combine her lived experiences and sharp business strategies. Her mission is clear: help others activate their inner strategist and chase ambitious goals with authenticity and clarity.
In Part 1, we’ll uncover Sara’s personal journey, from struggles to breakthroughs, and how her experiences shaped her purpose. Part 2 will delve into the books—her motivations, her audience, and the impact she hopes to create.
Key Highlights of Our Interview:
The Milk Activist: Chocolate Milk Equality at Age Nine“I successfully petitioned the cafeteria ladies for milk equality… so that the bag lunch kids could also have chocolate milk on Friday.”
Job Hopping or Scanning? Redefining a Nonlinear Career
“They called it job hopping, but my career coach reframed it as being a ‘scanner’ with lots of interests. Turns out, I wasn’t hopping, I was just too excited to make things better!”
The Burnout Chronicles: From Always-On-the-Go to Needing a Why
“I was that guy on the plane, always on the go. My dog lived with my parents for way too long. That lifestyle led me to burnout, and I realized I needed to do things differently.”
Curiosity as a Cure: How Staying Curious Helped Me Avoid Feeling Stuck
“Curiosity is an antidote to stuckness and anxiety. Later in my career, I developed the ability to always have a playground in my brain—something to learn.”
Turning a Job Disappointment into an MBA in Enterprise Politics
“Instead of feeling frustrated, I reframed my experience as a mini MBA in navigating large political organizations with resistance to change.”
Strategy Isn’t About Being the Smartest in the Room—It’s About Asking the Right Questions
“Being a strategist is not just being the smartest person in the room. It’s having a toolkit of questions that uncover facts, spark insight, and develop ideas.”
