Episode Description

Climbing the corporate ladder. Success. Making money. Isn’t that what many of us have been taught comprise the good life? I mean, we live comfortably and can afford a nice lifestyle with lovely vacations. It all should be good, right? Then, how come we don’t feel fulfilled? Why does it seem to get harder and harder to get out of bed and drag ourselves into the office? If you can relate to this story line, this episode may just be one you need to hear. Mary Miller shares her story of career ascent, misery in “living the dream” she worked so hard to achieve, and how she came to see the light on the other side of the tunnel toward a new and ultimately much more rewarding way to do life and career. She shares some of her key lessons along the way and how she has helped other women define their own version of success overruling the “shoulds” they have been told all their lives.
