Episode Details

What if every zig and zag in your career was actually the path, not the detour?

When Heidi Oshin was twenty years into a law career she didn't love, she didn't ask did I waste the time? She asked what's next? and pivoted to build a program for twice-exceptional children, then Menemsha Films, then during pandemic week one, Chaiflicks, the largest streaming service dedicated to Jewish-themed stories anywhere in the world.

In this episode Heidi shares how three completely different careers stacked into one life — and what that life taught her about pivoting, about being the only woman at the table, and about believing in a dream long enough to build it. Deep on rehearsing her way through misogynistic 1980s law rooms, the line every young woman needs about imposter syndrome, why twice-exceptional kids get missed, launching a streaming service in COVID week one, and the advice she'd give the woman sitting on her next pivot but too scared to move.
