Summary
Join me for a special episode where I'm featured on the "Journey to Joy Live" podcast discussing my journey from corporate executive to entrepreneur and caretaker. We dive deep into balancing leadership with motherhood, avoiding burnout, and my philosophy of putting the "living" back into "making a living."
Learn about sacred brackets, keeping your receipts, and why joy is an act of resistance. This conversation explores how my experience as a caretaker to my mother with dementia has reinforced my mission to help others remember: there's never too late to dream, but there can be too late to do.
