Designing Your Next Chapter
Speaker: Debbie Travis, Best-Selling Author, Entrepreneur & Design Icon
Let’s face it – change can be scary. Our fear of failure and the unknown can prevent us from taking risks, making bold career moves or pursuing our passions. How do we work past those fears and concerns to achieve our goals? In this episode of Live From The Podium, international design icon and best-selling author Debbie Travis explains how you can design your next chapter and discover your calling. Debbie shares her incredible journey of risk-taking and trial-through-error, and ultimately provides us with a framework we can use to transform our “someday” plans into “today’s” plans. If you’re on the cusp of a career transition, or if you’re considering making a bold move in your professional or personal life, this episode will provide you with the inspiration you need to accept change as a fabulous thing.
