#262 Erica Sosna: Rebuilding Her Career—and Spine—One Step at a Time – Part Two

Erica Sosna knows about career change—but 2022brought a plot twist even she didn’t plan for.

A life-altering accident left her paralyzed, and suddenly her to-do list included “relearn walking” and “rebuild everything.” Now, she’s back—walking, thriving, and reminding us that bouncing back takes more than pep talks—it takes grit, grace, and a stubborn refusal to stay down. Part One.

Key Highlights of Our Interview:

Speaking the Same Career Language: The Foundation of The Career Equation

“The Career Equation is designed to create a common understanding between employers and employees around career development, much like having a shared accounting system. Without it, career conversations risk inconsistency and lack of clarity, but with it, we can truly align aspirations and strategies.”

Building Career Conversations with Four Simple Components

“The Career Equation focuses on four key insights: understanding strengths, uncovering passions, measuring success, and aligning with optimal work environments. These components create a common ground, enabling both employer and employee to understand what’s needed to thrive.”

Insatiable Curiosity: Embracing Unconventional Paths to Healing

"An insatiable thirst for novelty keeps me exploring, whether it’s acupuncture, microcurrent therapy, or spine-specific chiropractic techniques. I’ve discovered that healing requires openness to new possibilities, even when they fall outside the traditional model.”

The Right Environment: The Crucial Factor for Success

“From workspace to team dynamics, the environment is essential to performance. Knowing where a person does their best work and making adjustments as needed creates a space where strengths can flourish.”

Visualizing the Outcome: A Plan Begins with the End in Mind

“I start by envisioning the experiences I want—whether it’s dancing, running, or picking up my child—then map out the steps that would lead me there. By framing it with vivid goals, I find clarity and purpose in the smallest daily actions.”
