Katie Shive on Radical Acceptance

About this episode

Katie Shive discusses how unexpected change has influenced her views on resilience and personal growth.

Change is rarely something we choose. In this episode of Lessons From Last Time, Katie Shive shares how navigating seasons of unexpected change reshaped the way she thinks about resilience, work, and what truly matters. Naturally risk-averse and resistant to change, Katie explains how life experiences forced her to rethink control and adopt a mindset of radical acceptance, focusing on what she could influence and letting go of what she couldn’t. She reflects on recognizing burnout, making difficult career decisions, and rebuilding with greater clarity and intention. From personal growth to professional reinvention, Katie explores how hard seasons can become turning points.
