In this episode, Shannon Russell, a career transition business coach, shares her journey from TV producer to entrepreneurship, emphasizing the importance of identifying transferable skills and the need for guidance during career changes. 

The conversation highlights the challenges faced by stay-at-home parents and the opportunities available for remote work, especially post-COVID.
