Hello Big Brains!
Thank you for the warm welcome. If you've read my "Find Your Next" post, you've learned about my unique story -- climbing the corporate ladder at Johnson & Johnson (JNJ), transitioning into all-in entrepreneurship, and now feeling called as a Christ-follower into ministry.
I've read so many of your amazing stories, and I look forward to engaging with everyone as we purse our unique callings in life!
Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to share some of my life lessons and business insights via a podcast hosted by Sylvania Harrod. I was asked to speak about the transition from living in the "Zoo" (i.e., corporate environment, feed regularly, comfortable) to the "Jungle" (i.e., all-in entrepreneurship, hunting for every meal, and less comfortable).
Joe's AMAZING podcast series (Sunday Sips) encouraged me to share this here! If you're interested in learning more about my story, check it out.
If anything from my life, corporate life, or passions resonates with you -- I'd love to engage in the comments about it.
