Curating Career Life Stories: How Did I Get Here? Episode 136 – An interview with An Chris Natzke
Join me for the career reflections of Chris Natzke, life leadership coach & keynote speaker. At age eleven he knows that martial arts will someday be his profession. At age sixteen he’s teaching adults martial arts, and then in his early thirties he opens his martial arts school.
The martial arts school was a side gig as he already had a successful career in corporate sales. Until his wife made him pick between running the school and his corporate sales job because the family was getting the short end of the stick.
Of course, his passion the school wins and he starts planning and taking steps to leave corporate. But that is when the panic attacks start — taking him down hard. Find out how he bounces back and continues a lifelong journey of personal and professional development eventually leading him to discover his coaching and speaking genius.
What’s served Chris best: “Leading by example. And vulnerability is a big part of that. If people can see you’re vulnerable, they can also see your potential & greatness.”
His words of wisdom come from a boss early on: “You can come to me with any problem, just come with a solution and ask for feedback. This starts a dialogue versus conflict and causes you to think for yourself and have some ownership.”
