Thinking about a career pivot? Maybe it’s bigger than that. Maybe it’s a life pivot. In this episode, Kendall Breitman, Head of Community at Riverside.fm, shares her deeply personal journey of stepping away from a well-established high-profile career in political journalism — where she covered the 2016 U.S. presidential election as a reporter for Bloomberg News and worked in TV production at NBC — to carve out something new in tech.
But making a major career change isn’t just about picking a different job—it’s about unlearning old definitions of success, avoiding the traps of ‘playing it safe,’ and navigating the emotional and practical challenges that come with big transitions. Kendall gets candid about the fears, the doubts, and the surprising moments of clarity that shaped her decision.
If you're questioning your own career path, feeling stuck, or wondering if your next move is about more than just work, this episode is for you. Tune in for a conversation that just might change the way you think about reinvention.
