Today, we are spending time with Ambika Pai.
Ambika and I recorded this episode almost a year ago. And while so much of what we discuss still rings true — and I know will for YOU too — Ambika’s career has continued to expand and evolve to meet her where she’s transforming.
Today, she is the head of brand at TIAA.
We travel through decades and a multitude of milestones over the course of our conversation. But the word that stuck with me each of the four times I’ve listed to this is “floating.”
Floating means many things.
And while the word is so often viewed as a negative: not settled in a definite place; fluctuating or variable,” – in layman's terms LOST – it also has a positive connotation: buoyant or suspended
This version of the definition usually refers to literally floating in water or air.
But WE are talking about the metaphorical: the existing outside of your body, above yourself. Sometimes unsettling. Sometimes exhilarating.
Being grounded and tethered to the earth is important. But it can also be limiting and hold us back from the expansive, most unbridled versions of ourselves.
That kind of floating can take you to places that only exist in your wildest dreams.
And it got me thinking: For those of us who are always transforming, evolving and growing, are we ever NOT floating?
