Jen Liddy felt like she wasn’t making the impact she wanted to make as a teacher.  The students weren’t engaged and the administrative work was tedious and exhausting.  But the voice in her head in the shower every morning, asking if she should just cancel class for the day, just couldn’t be ignored any longer.  She had a lot invested in her teaching job (her lesson plans, her retirement, her two master’s degrees) and part of her wondered if all of that was ever going to be of any use again.

Ten years later, she has put all that she invested in her former career, and her natural skills, to use teaching experts how to harness their brilliance and their language so that their audience can hear them.  These people want to be in the room with her and want to grow their audience online.  This new career is everything she ever could have wished for about teaching.

She finally learned to stop downplaying and devaluing what came easy to her and learned to think of it as her magic instead.

In this episode you’ll learn:

How to be open to opportunity even though you may feel you are not qualified to take advantage of it.  You can always learn new skills.

How to ask yourself if what you’re doing feels good to you

How to stop putting yourself second, third, or fourth
