Episode 5: A Leap into the Unknown with Denise Cowle

Listen Later

After 25 years as a physiotherapist in the UK National Health Service, Denise Cowle made a bold career move when she decided to quit her stable job without knowing where she was going. She then found her passion and purpose in editing and proofreading. Nine years and many milestones later, Denise talks about: 

  • what drove her to leave steady employment and leap into the unknown
  • how to deal with fear by asking “What’s the worst that could happen?”
  • her passion for her new line of work and how she deals with imposter syndrome
  • how professional trade associations and peer groups have proved invaluable customers as collaborators, not simply people who buy your services
  • her ambitious plans for the future expansion of her skills and business advice for people wishing to move into this flexible and appealing career

    • This is Denise’s successful editing podcast. And in this blog post Denise talks about the personal and professional skills which are transferable across seemingly very different lines of work. Link to the Chartered Institute of Editing and Proofreading: https://www.ciep.uk/
