How to Overcome Burnout with Female Founder Melinda Jackson
Description
Inspired by MTVโs ๐ป๐๐ ๐ฏ๐๐๐๐ during college, Melinda jetted off to LA with the hopes of landing a position in PR. After hustling for years (working three internships and multiple jobs) she eventually landed her dream gig at one of LAโs top PR firms. But at what she imagined would be the peak of her career, she realized she was caught in a cycle of burnout and choosing her company over herself. Flash forward ten years later - Melinda now owns her own PR firm, reaching a new pinnacle of happiness and success she never thought possible.
Join me this week on the Female Founder Friday podcast as Melinda and I discuss the complexities of company loyalty and why even after landing your dream job you can still experience burnout. If you are considering a change in your career, you will not want to miss Melindaโs incredible insight on why itโs time to prioritize yourself and consider branching out on your own.
