"I think many of us are living by what we decided we wanted 10 or 20 years ago and we're too afraid of course-correct." That's how Jackie McDougall felt after years in the television industry. After deciding at a young age that she wanted to be in television she left Boston for California at age 23 with $700 in her pocket and she never looked back. Years later, however, she noticed the 40+ demographic being overlooked in the talk show field, and she decided to do something about it. Now a coach and host of The Grown Ass Woman podcast. "My work has morphed not just for the creative folks," she says, "but for a variety of women who want to do something. They know they want something...but they're not exactly sure how to get there." In this conversation with CoveyClub founder Lesley Jane Seymour, McDougall shares her insights for taking the knowledge gained in corporate life and twisting it to fit your personal practice. Listen in for her tips on dealing with imposter syndrome, positioning yourself as an expert, and facing the fear so you can do more of what you love.
