Carla Fowler, an Executive Coach and founder of THAXA, has gone through the challenge of changing a career path and embracing new opportunities. Carla speaks to the advantages and growth (both personal and professional) of pushing yourself and getting outside of your comfort zone.  Professionals achieve career accomplishments by continuing to push oneself, learning, tackling new projects and improving. That’s how Executives are formed.

 

Carla talks to;

• Realizing path one is on isn’t always the right one
• Pushing your boundaries and trying new things
• She agrees UDub is the best university- Go Huskies!

 

After dedicating over 10 years of education, training, and long hours to become an MD, Carla had a long hard self-reflective journey that in the end said, ‘This isn’t what I want to do’, and she became an executive coach. If anyone can appreciate a great career pivot and the personal journey that is required, Carla can.
