What if your years in corporate weren’t wasted — but the exact foundation you need to build the next chapter?

In this powerful episode, Clarissa sits down with Tabatha Jones, career advancement coach, author, and The Corporate Escape Sherpa™, to talk about what it really takes to leave corporate, start a business, and thrive in midlife — without burning everything to the ground.

Tabatha shares her own story of leaving a 20+ year career in telecom to become a leadership coach at 50, and how she now guides other Gen X women through career reinvention with strategy, self-trust, and solid financial planning.

If you’re standing in the messy middle of “Should I stay or should I go?” — this episode is your sign to take the next brave step.

• The real reason many midlife women feel stuck in corporate
• A key essential before you make the leap
• How to leverage your corporate skills to build a business
• What it means to lead yourself first before leading others
