Today we have an awesome guest, Aaron McHugh. We cover some awesome topics about how to "Fire Your Boss" and transform your life.

Who exactly is Aaron?
Aaron McHugh is an executive transformation coach, enterprise agility consultant, writer, podcaster, adventurer, author of Fire Your Boss: Discover Work You Love Without Quitting Your Job and career liberator who is learning to master sustainable work-life play rhythms woven into his everyday routine. He hosts the fast-growing podcast “Work-Life Play,” leads Reboot Your Life experiential weekends, speaks widely, and is an Affiliate Advisor for Aberkyn, a division of McKinsey & Co, helping drive large culture transformations in North America.

When he’s in his happy place he’s on road trips in their 1974 VW Bus, aka The Joy Bus, catapulting them into many father-daughter adventures together.

Aaron loves life. He loves to dream up a new adventure. He is a Starbucks French press coffee snob and is at his best when he runs daily.

He and his wife Leith live in Colorado Springs, CO. They are celebrating twenty-seven years of marriage in December. Their marriage survived the death of their twelve-year-old daughter Hadley in 2011. Their twenty-four-year-old son Holden lives in Costa Mesa and is thriving in recovery five years clean and sober. Their youngest daughter lives in Orange County with her brother.

In 2015 they rebooted their lives, sold their house, and all of their belongings to reboot their life and start their life over again. It hasn’t been easy, but they would do it again. They love traveling, drinking box wine, and spending time with their creative, hilarious, and courageous kids.

In Work, he’s covered the spectrum from ringing in the Opening Day trading bell at the London Stock Exchange to humble beginnings of selling office supplies door-to-door.

In-Play, he’s an adventurer. He’s an Ironman triathlete, mountaineer, and is learning to surf. He recently accomplished a Life List dream of mountain biking the 500 mile Colorado Trail from Durango to Denver.

We cover topics such as:

  • What is a tip for someone dissatisfied with their current career?
  • How can you fire your boss?
  • Aaron's biggest secret to success
