Get an insider’s view on launching, growing, and scaling a sleep consulting business.
Featured Podcast Episode
When I interviewed Joan Lunden live on stage in Baltimore a few months ago, I never expected our backstage conversation would lead to this podcast episode.
As we chatted before taking the stage, I shared a bit about my work as a sleep consultant, my online sleep consultant certification program, and of course this podcast. To my surprise, she asked if she could be a guest.
Needless to say, I didn’t hesitate to say yes.
Joan has spent decades in the public eye, but what I was most interested in wasn’t her career highlights. I wanted to hear what it was really like to build an ambitious career while raising six children, long before there was much of a roadmap for working mothers.
In this conversation, we talk about:
• Navigating the judgment that often comes with making unconventional career choices
• Why women shouldn’t feel like they have to choose between meaningful work and motherhood
• How Joan has defined success at different stages of her life and career
• Why leading with service ultimately creates the greatest impact
While Joan’s career may have looked very different from ours, I think you’ll find that many of the questions she wrestled with are the same ones women are still asking today.
Is it okay to love motherhood and still want something that’s just yours?
Can you build a meaningful career without sacrificing your family?
How do you define success when you’re trying to balance it all?
I hope you enjoy my conversation with Joan Lunden.
