Hey, human! It’s your canine co-coach, here to remind you: Life isn’t just about work—it’s about making choices that reflect what truly matters to you.
Take my mom, for example. She’s built her career around freedom, service, and connection—not just what looks good on a résumé. And last Friday? She didn’t just talk about values—she lived them.
She used her own version of VTO (Volunteer Time Off) to join the Feed My Starving Children Mobile Pack. Because making an impact beyond work hours is part of the life she’s intentionally designed. Just like how I make time for belly rubs, zoomies, and chasing squirrels—it’s all about prioritizing what fuels you.
🐶 How to Design Your Career & Life Around Your Values:
1️⃣ Clarify What Truly Matters – Not just professionally, but personally. Creativity, flexibility, service? Make sure your job supports the life you actually want. 2️⃣ Think Beyond Work Hours – A fulfilling life isn’t just about what happens at work, but how work enables you to show up for the things you love outside of it. 3️⃣ Align Your Goals With Your Values – Before setting a goal, ask: Does this move me closer to the life I want? Your purpose should drive your choices—not just a paycheck.
A job is just one piece of the puzzle. A life designed with intention is the full picture.
🔥 What values are guiding your next move? 🐾 Where do you feel misaligned today? 🚧 What’s holding you back from making changes?
Whatever the answer, know this: The vision is there. The next step is making it a reality. And just like a pup learning a new trick, it starts with one intentional choice at a time. 🐕💭
