60 Seconds With Kate Swoboda
November 28, 2011
Kate Swoboda ~ Contributor to Desire to Inspire ~ on her “job title”:
A title is just a title, and only makes a very general statement about what you do, so how do you express who you are and what you believe through the work you do under the umbrella of that title? Officially, I use the title “Life Coach,” even though that title has never really felt like an exact fit, but people usually know what that is, so I stick with it. If I were to choose an alternate title, it would probably be “teacher.” I love learning something or having some insight and then being able to pass it on to someone else. And if I stop to think about all of the times that someone else’s insights have taught me something, I feel very connected and held by the Universe.

What fun! Yesterday my guest post at Simply Celebrate went live, and today she is our bookmark give away winner! Congratulations Sherry!
every time someone asks me what I do, I pause. I always feel like saying I am an “artist” is not enough. there are many things I do and I even find in the world today that people have many “titles” and it is hard to narrow it down to one word. happy monday! ciao!
Very inspiring thoughts. This book seems like a musthave.
Kate’s thoughts on job title were thought provoking and I enjoyed what she had to say. But you know what I REALLY loved about this post? That b/w photo of her on the bridge just makes me grin. I can feel her energy and spirit jumping off the page. It makes me so happy. I have the feeling that this is what Christine’s new book is going to feel like: all that vitality and joy just bubbling over. I bet every single woman in that book is inspiring not just because of what she DOES, but of who she IS. xo
I always find it hard to give people a title for what I do. A little uncomfortable, which is maybe an indication that I have not found the right title. And I have to say, I adore that photo of Kate on the pier…such a feeling of energy and fizz.
Reading about all the amazing contributors I am so excited to get my hands on this book, I can feel the amazingness it will be. How could it be anything else with all these great women involved!
