When is the Best Time to Make a Career Pivot? With Natalie Benamou - Ep 195
In this episode, I featured a recent livestream interview with Natalie Benamou, where we discussed the best time to make a pivot in your career or business.
We explored this topic in depth, making it particularly insightful for those who are recently self-employed, thinking of becoming self-employed, have been self-employed for a while, or even those currently in corporate roles contemplating a change.
Natalie shared her journey from a long career in trade shows to founding Her C-Suite, a company focused on supporting women in the second half of their careers.
We also dove into various types of pivots such as internal corporate moves, location changes, and shifts from corporate careers to entrepreneurship. Additionally, we touched on the importance of networking, learning continuously, and the concept of 'net giving.'
