Erika Jacobi did all these things and more in order to live fully to her values and allow her true identity to emerge in her life and work. Leaving Germany, she started over in the United States where the opportunity to reinvent herself as a scholar, earn a PhD, and pursue a career in Organizational Change Consulting coincided. Tune in to hear about her lessons learned, what she did to forge ahead to realize her dream, and why pursuing this dream was so important.
