Abroad changed my life for the better. It's not only the clothes I am still unpacking, it's the memories, the perspective shifts, and of course, all of the friendships (and the lessons they taught me) I made while living in Barcelona. Today, I will fill you in on all the pieces of wisdom and true gifts I learned - in hopes that they will change your perspective as well.
In this inspiring episode, I sit down with Fran Hauser, an author, keynote speaker, and investor who has dedicated her career to empowering other women. With a background in finance and media, Fran played a pivotal role in the $525 million sale of Moviefone to AOL and later rose to become President of Digital at Time Inc.
In the episode, Fran shares insights from her two acclaimed books, The Myth of the Nice Girl and Embrace the Work, Love Your Career, offering invaluable advice on how to navigate the professional world while staying true to yourself. As many of us are starting to work in the real world, Fran shares crucial insights that all girls deserve to hear right now.
We even delve into Fran’s journey from a finance professional to a media executive and successful startup investor. This episode is a must-listen for collegiate women looking to redefine their career stories, take control of their financial futures, and prioritize self-care.
Tune in to be inspired and motivated to press play on your own success story!
Also: happy 50th episode! I cannot believe over four years, we have finally reached a HUGE milestone. Thank you SO much to all of you who continue to listen and fulfill my dream of changing the way girls view their life and the world around them.
