What do you do when your career has spanned the globe, your leadership has made a measurable impact, and you still feel called to something more?

In this episode of Your Next Success, Dr. Caroline Sangal talks with Dr. Lucinda Jackson—a global executive, scientist, author, and speaker—about the choices, turning points, and clarity that shaped her remarkable career and powerful next chapter.

Lucinda has worked in more than 30 countries for four Fortune 500 companies, led international environmental and safety teams, and served as General Manager at Chevron. In her next act, she joined the Peace Corps, launched LJ Ventures, and authored two compelling memoirs:

• Just a Girl: Growing Up Female and Ambitious
•  Project Escape: Lessons for an Unscripted Life

This conversation explores what it means to evolve with intention, stay open to reinvention, and create a life of meaning—no matter what stage you're in.

In this episode, we explore:

• How Lucinda navigated leadership in industries where few women were present
• The mindset that guided her most meaningful transitions
• Her experience moving from global executive to author and advisor
• How writing helped her reflect, realign, and reimagine what’s possible
