The Real Price of a Corner Office In New York City With a Manhattan View

In this week's episode, I share my journey transitioning from a high-paying multi-six figure executive role at one of New York City's top media firms, to create a life more aligned with my values and passions.

As a guest on a recent episode of the 'How to Scale a Business Podcast,' I discuss the challenges and realities of stepping away from the corporate ladder, including the transition to an entrepreneurial path focused on purpose over profit.

Through my experiences in both corporate environments and my own business endeavors, I reveal insights on how to balance personal fulfillment with financial goals.

My story is a guide and playbook for anyone looking to break free from the "golden handcuffs" or an unfulfilling career. You too can take the courageous steps toward a more meaningful life overall. Enjoy this week's episode!
