Let’s talk about the real secret to career growth… it’s not just hard work (though that matters). It’s who you know, how you show up, and the connections you build along the way.

In this episode, I’m sitting down with Judy Molenaar—a high-level cybersecurity exec, mom, and one of my incredible high-performance clients—to talk about the power of networking in building a career that actually aligns with your life.

With over 25 years of experience in a male-dominated industry, Judy shares how she’s built a thriving leadership career and stayed grounded in her values. But the game-changer? Her ability to connect with people intentionally, strategically, and authentically—way beyond her immediate circle.

In this episode, we talk about: 🤝 How to build and leverage a network (even if you hate networking events) 📈 Why expanding outside your industry is key to your next big opportunity 💬 What meaningful connections actually look like at every stage of your career 👩‍💻 Navigating leadership, motherhood, and the long game of growth 🧠 The role of self-care and learning as part of professional success

If you’re craving more alignment, bigger opportunities, or just a sense of connection in your professional world—this episode is going to light something up in you.

In this episode of Dream It, Do It Podcast, I’m diving into a topic that so many of us wrestle with—purpose. What does it really mean? How does it evolve over time? And how does it impact everything from our careers to motherhood to our overall happiness?

I’ll be sharing my thoughts on why purpose isn’t just some big, elusive thing we have to “find” but something we can actively build and reconnect with. We’ll talk about how staying aligned with what truly matters to you can help you avoid burnout, stay motivated, and feel more fulfilled—beyond just chasing success or external validation.

I’ll also break down some simple, actionable ways to strengthen your sense of purpose, whether in your personal life or in leadership roles. Because when we’re clear on our “why,” we show up stronger—not just for ourselves but for the people around us.

In this episode of Dream It, Do It, we're keeping the high-performance series rolling with a deep dive into something that doesn’t get talked about enough—courage. Sure, productivity and good habits matter, but real high performance? It takes bold, sometimes scary decisions.

I’m sharing personal moments when I had to dig deep and choose courage—like leaving my corporate job, redefining how I show up for my family, and facing the overwhelm that comes with big life changes. We’ll also unpack the fears that keep us stuck and talk about how to strengthen your “courage muscle” with radical honesty and consistent action.

And because taking action is where the magic happens, I’m challenging you to commit to one courageous move in the next five days. Let’s see what shifts when you start leaning into bravery!
