Mel Grauds (Melrose Training) on Career, Career Change, Strength Training for Women and the Best Athletic Wear to Get

SOLO. Why "Tackle Box" and the purpose behind it, quitting a job, trying things in your 20's, ditching the comfort zone, upstream thinking

#4. In today's episode I open up about my journey this past year, from quitting a full time job to why I started a podcast and its purpose. Stepping back from my job and taking the time to try new things (like starting a podcast) brought me a lot of clarity and (after a lot of uncomfortable months of feeling uncertain about my future) I'm finally in a place where I feel at ease and like I can share a glimpse of my experience so that it might be helpful for any on you <3. After starting the podcast/where I am now: * I'm now working in a casual nursing role that I really enjoy * I'm going back to school in the fall for a graduate certificate in Public Relations * I'm still taking things day by day and really excited to go back to school! (never thought Id say that lol).  * Also still challenging myself and getting out of my comfort zone (hence the solo podcast) Let me know what you'd like to hear more of, or if I should dive deeper in anything I discuss on today's episode.

I can’t believe I’m posting this but, introducing…

Tackle Box the podcast! This year I want to try more things that scare me. This is one of them. I also want to create a place where we can come together to learn, unlearn, and grow together! My intention for Tackle Box is for it to be a collection of educational tools and topics on all things health and wellness that inspires you, and that you can take into your life to be your best you.
