Over the past few months, the #InVinoFab podcast has episodes with candid conversations @LauraPasquini had with career changers. We are grateful for the women who shared stories about career transitions, pivots, and/or paths to and from higher education. There are way more than just these eight lessons and a wealth of amazing resources shared in these chats. We hope this mini-episode entices you to check out the entire catalog of these episodes and amazing interviews from these 8 women wherever you catch your podcasts or stream it from:
