How to Navigate 3 Big Life Transitions: Career Pivot, Motherhood, and Self-Discovery with Shannon Russell

Are you thinking about making a big career change but wonder if it is too late? Maybe you are craving a second act, but fear is holding you back. 

In this episode, I sit down with Shannon Russell, a former TV producer, podcast host, speaker, and author of Start Your Second Act, who decided to walk away from a 16-year career to build a life on her own terms. We talk about why the idea that you have to stick with one path forever is not true as she shares her honest story of a major career pivot, her journey through life after motherhood, and how she built a business that aligned with her new values. Shannon shows how personal reinvention is not only possible, it is necessary for true self-discovery.

You will hear what a second act looks like in real life and why it is never too late to start. Shannon and I talk about how to make a smart, strategic career change, why life transitions often create the biggest opportunities for growth, and how self-discovery shapes your next chapter. We also dive into what it feels like to build a business, Second Act Success Career Coaching , after a major career pivot and how to approach life after motherhood with more clarity and confidence.

Listen now and hear how real change can happen at any stage and why your next chapter might be even better than you imagine.

Here’s to your next chapter,

Nikki
