What is the best piece of advice you have received or lesson you have learned from a leader in your professional or personal life?

Sometimes we learn things from great leaders and sometimes we learn things from some not-so great leaders. All of our experiences shape us and mold us into the leaders we want to be.

The best piece of advice I have received is - “if not know, when?”, which is something I use throughout my career. Whether it is sending an email, starting a new project, or finding ways to work with others - if I do not take opportunities when they arise, they make not come back around.

Although I grew up in the , it is not always in the same way people expect. Yes, I am a fourth-generation funeral director, whose family is steeped in New York Jewish Funeral Home history and tradition, but my life was certainly not similar to Six Feet Under, or for us millennials, My Girl.

All of these feelings are normal and will happen, but it is important to never forget what motivates you, what you are passionate about, and ultimately, what makes you successful.

Ask yourself - What is your "WHY"? Why did you start your business? Why did you choose your career? Why did you change careers or shift within your industry?

And if it is time for a change - WHY not?
