Thinking That Matters with Elizabeth Mahusay

Have you been contemplating a career change?

In a world where each day feels like a race against time and competition is everywhere, the decision to leave a secure job and chase your passion can seem daunting. But today, we delve into a story that challenges the norms and exemplifies the pursuit of one's true calling.

Join me as I sit down with my sister-in-law, Melody, a distinguished piano and voice instructor based in Hillsborough County, Florida. Melody's journey is not just about changing careers; it's a narrative of courage, self-discovery, and the transformative power of music.

Melody will walk us through her remarkable journey—from feeling the nerves of leaving a legal career to embracing a world of melodies and harmonies. From practicing law to touching lives through music, her transition wasn't just a career shift but a quest for meaningful engagement with her talents and the people around her.

We'll also talk about the pivot to virtual lessons during the pandemic, Melody's gratification in seeing her students succeed, and, importantly, how she navigates her thinking to align with spiritual guidance, fostering a deeper connection with her craft and the individuals she touches along the way.

Key Takeaways:

🔹Embrace the Unknown- Melody's journey reminds us that the skills you gather in one profession can serendipitously prepare you for the next.

🔹Learning Through Teaching- Often, the best way to learn is to teach. Melody reflects on how her own growth was propelled by guiding others, highlighting the mutual benefits of education.

🔹Service Over Strife- Transitioning from the legal world to jewelry sales, and finally to teaching, Melody found that prioritizing service to others brought fulfillment beyond any courtroom victory.

So whether you're faced with career choices, seeking personal growth, or just love an amazing story accompanied by life's soundtrack, this episode will surely strike a chord with you. It's a narrative of resilience, passion, and the profound impact of pursuing one's true calling.

Know more about Elizabeth:

Elizabeth grew up a self-starter who as a young woman prided herself on her independence and self-sufficiency. She found herself challenged to develop deep and meaningful relationships because of her prideful “know-it-all” approach to life and work. She projected that she was perfect yet struggled to deal with failure, thoughts of insecurity, and the feeling of inadequacy. Through her study of the Bible, time as an entrepreneur, and the accountability of some great mentors Elizabeth, is a transformed woman. Today, she passionately invests her time helping others transform their thinking.

Elizabeth is author of the recently published Transform My Thinking, God study on the book of Philippians. She has published over 170 YouTube videos and hundreds of Facebook Live videos ranging from topics of business building, daily encouragement/motivation, inspiration, marriage, and Bible exposition.
