Have you ever wondered what it would be like to invent your own job? This week, we hear how Meghan Ely did just that and how she started the global wedding PR company, OFD consulting. Meghan, the self-proclaimed "crazy cat lady," royal wedding enthusiast, and educator, shares how she manifested her success and how she thinks "big picture" to make her dreams reality.

Meghan takes us on her journey from turning down a full-time position at Nike to partake in a year of service with AmeriCorps, to entering the hospitality industry and starting her own business after leaving a "dream position" having to file for hostile work environment.  Meghan gets real about the impact of stress on physical health, how plans have a way of changing, and how she learned to lean on our support system.

Practically, Meghan shares how SEO has benefitted her company and scaled her growth, why everyone needs an advisor, and the importance of delegating tasks to a team of experts. We talk about the power of a business plan and we learn the value of people. This is an episode you don't want to miss - plus, don't you want to find out what OFD stands for? Tune in now!
