This is my first solo episode! I thought I’d share with you just what I mean by Sustainable Ambition and why I think it’s an important concept for us to consider when managing our careers, especially in today’s world. I’ve been working on this concept for the last 5 years and likely have been living it all my adult life without realizing it until a few years ago.
So, for grounding, at a high level, Sustainable Ambition is about crafting a fulfilling career to support your life from decade to decade… with the end goal being to experience more fulfillment in your professional and personal life with more ease, while still being ambitious.
In the episode, I talk about what inspired the model, some high-level thoughts on Sustainable Ambition, and then go deeper into the model. The Sustainable Ambition Method has 3 pillars: Right Success, Right Aspiration, and Right Effort. I discuss each pillar and share how they are about: defining Personal Reward, creating a Regenerative Career, and building Work-Life Resilience, respectively.
Thanks for being with me for my first solo episode, everyone! I hope you find it helpful to learn a bit more about Sustainable Ambition. Cheers!

How do you navigate the inevitable conflicts between work and life? Not just the daily schedules or mounting responsibilities, but the tensions between your ambition for your career and your ambition for life?
How do you decide what to prioritize and what to let go of? How do you decide when to speed ahead and when to ease up?
These aren’t questions of work-life balance or self-care. They’re questions we can answer when we get serious about intentionally designing a life with work that works for you.
Join Kathy Oneto, executive and life-work coach and founder of Sustainable Ambition, for conversations with experts, authors, and friends to explore sticky questions around navigating ambitious careers while integrating life with work, practicing sustainable work practices, and building resilience.
Most people assume that ambition and sustainability are mutually exclusive. Not so! Keep listening, and Kathy will make you a believer in Sustainable Ambition, too.
