Listen "93: Author & Speaker, Jeanne Collins: Two Feet In for Life-Work Balance"
Episode Synopsis
In this conversation, Vicki and Laura interview Jeanne Collins, an award-winning interior designer and author of the memoir 'Two Feet In, Lessons from an All-in-Life.'
Jeanne was fired from the corporate world at 50 and is building a lifestyle business helping other women find resilience and life-work balance. She talks about the different ways we can define success - it's not always about revenue - and we touch on networking and staying focused on what's working well. If you're thinking about podcasting yourself, listen in, Jeanne has some great advice here. And on life-work balance, Jeanne shares her strategies for resilience, journaling, meditation, and walking.
