In the latest episode of the Empowerography Podcast, my guest is Jodie Graham. My first career was as a Chartered Professional Accountant (2001). I have had a successful 30-year career working in the public sector and have found it very rewarding. I have been extremely grateful to have had wonderful mentors and encouraging bosses along the way that helped me find my confidence and encouraged me to advance in more progressive roles. I have worked in healthcare, mental health, and provincial and municipal levels of government. The longer I worked in the accounting world, the more I realized that no matter where I went, the numbers were the numbers. The challenges were similar, but what made some positions better were the people I worked for and with, the teams that I led, the issues I was dealing with, and the problems I was helping to solve along the way. Some of my favourite positions were those where I was working with field of either mental health or the justice system, so when I got the opportunity to interview for an Executive Position with the local police service, I had found my dream job.  All of my experience had led me to that position.  I worked there for nearly 8 and had every intention of retiring from there. In this episode we discuss collaboration coaching, support systems, the healing journey and self-awareness.
