For me, The Voice is right up there with Super Soul Sunday as the show that moves me whenever I watch.  I just feel good.

In the first show of the new season, Esera Tuaolo was a contestant. Esera played 9 seasons in the NFL as a nose tackle, went to the Super Bowl XXXIII with the Atlanta Falcons in 1998, recorded the last tackle of John Elway, was the 3^rd NFL player to come out as gay, is a published author, professional chef, and father of two.  Quite a full life!

On The Voice, he sang Andra’s Day song Rise Up. He had two chairs turn, meaning two people wanted him to be on their team, and eventually, he chose Blake Shelton as his coach.

It was a moving performance!

But the thing that really got me was when he walked backstage and Carson Daly, the host of The Voice, asked what felt better – beating Minnesota to go to Super Bowl or having the chairs turn on The Voice?

Esera said it was that moment on The Voice.

I could totally relate. I have been recruiting for over 20 years. I’m very good at it and I think it’s fun. It’s been a very good career that has provided well.

But when I work with a client or write these blogs or come up with a new program idea, I hope will help millions of people connect with their Soul’s Mission something moves inside of me.

And you would think going to the Super Bowl would be the ultimate for someone who had played 9 seasons in the NFL.

But what really moved him was singing.

Because singing is part of his Soul’s Mission.

You can be good at something, great even, and that does not mean it’s your Soul’s Mission.

When you are living your Soul’s Mission you can’t imagine doing anything else.

So, ask yourself: do you feel good about your career or are you moved by it?
