What if the career you've built isn’t the one meant for your future? In this empowering episode, I’m joined by Shannon Russell - former TV executive turned entrepreneur, author, and business coach, who shares how walking away from a high-profile career led her to a more fulfilling life and business.
We dive into what it really takes to start over when your job no longer fits, how to trust yourself when pivoting into entrepreneurship, and why your second act might just be your best one yet. Shannon’s story is a refreshing reminder that it’s never too late to rewrite your story, and you don’t need to burn it all down to begin.
In this episode, you’ll walk away with:
-
A powerful mindset shift: Your career is not your identity.
-
Permission to pivot - at any age, stage, or salary.
-
Encouragement to finally take action on the dream you’ve been sitting on (you owe it to yourself!).
Whether you’re craving more purpose, dreaming of leaving your 9-5, or already mid-pivot and feeling stuck, this conversation will light a fire in you.
