Nausheen Chen is a nerd turned Fortune 50 manager turned award-winning filmmaker...turned 3-time TEDx speaker and public speaking coach. She was one of those kids who had no idea what she wanted to be when she grew up. She’s been a #1 ranked manager at Procter & Gamble, an award-winning filmmaker, trained and performed improv in NYC and was a director at a PR company. She even acted in and directed a late night comedy TV show.
But in 2021, Nausheen realized she never resonated with any of those roles and titles. At heart, she loved speaking ever since she was a 19-year old radio show host. Or before that, when she played the Princess in her school’s production of Rapunzel in grade 3. So in 2022, Nausheen quit her multiple 6-figure filmmaking startup to become a public speaking coach. After 17 years, she’s finally daring to start living her dream.
In this engaging conversation, Nausheen shares all the hills and valleys of her journey, starting from when she was a young girl. She dives into how blind loyalty to inherited mindsets and principals can take you off your true path and how she broke free. Nausheen also shares how she handles the vulnerability that comes with personal change, why taking action doesn’t always build confidence on its own, and her transformational work as a coach.
What’s Inside:
- Nausheen’s journey from Fortune 50 manager to public speaking coach
- How blind loyalty to inherited mindsets takes you off your authentic path
- Why taking action doesn’t always build confidence on its own
