Ambassador Joan H Underwood is a woman of many facets and career reinventions from private sector to public sector to entrepreneurship.
Our conversation covered a lot;
- How the emotional toll of her job, motivated her first career pivot.
- Recognizing that your skills are transferable
- Not allowing age to be an inhibitor in your career choices - or she puts it there is no best due by date
- The importance of self-advocacy and making sure your next move is something you feel passionate about and gives you purpose
- Overcoming the fear of career change and impostor syndrome
And she had some great advice for women considering their own career transition.
