Shameless Leadership

106: Susan Weeks How to Find Yourself when Everything Changes


Listen Later

Susan Weeks is a podcast producer who helps other entrepreneurs get started in podcasting or step up their game in podcasting. Susan’s work online started out of her desire to stay out of the corporate world that had been a part of her past. 

 

After becoming a mom unexpectedly at 39, while newly divorced, Susan’s life changed in every way you could imagine. With a partner who struggled to stay in one place long enough to put down roots, Susan spent years raising her son in many different homes in many different countries. In hindsight, she can clearly see how she lost herself in her relationship and in motherhood. 

 

In recent years, Susan has put down roots and built a life that is true to her identity as a leader and guide to those around her. She has built a business that can be flexible with motherhood and also allows her to put to use her best attributes to serve others. 

 

Listen in to hear Susan share:

 

  • How she dealt with divorce, selling her house, walking away from her job and then discovering she was pregnant all in one month.
  • How she moved all over Europe living someone else’s dream and lost herself
  • The steps she took to build an online business around her strongest personality traits and her best skill sets from her corporate experience
  • Why being selfish in motherhood is appropriate and sometimes necessary
  •
