Do you sometimes struggle to reconcile the money you invested in higher education or the time you spent in corporate with where you are at now?
Let’s talk about how all of those things can work together.
I’m super excited to be here today with my friend, Natalie Gingrich. Natalie is the founder and host of The Ops Authority and has been in operation for two decades, either in health care, corporate America, or as an entrepreneur. She developed the Director of Operations Certification to equip existing ops experts to transform their businesses.
Natalie is sharing what it was like to transition from healthcare, to corporate, to entrepreneurship, and how lessons from those earlier career paths play a role in her business today. We’re talking about priorities, mom guilt, fear of failure, and of course what it takes to be an operations professional.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- Having a quarter-life crisis
- Going from $180,000 in debt to running a successful business
- Lessons learned from working in a corporate environment
- How confidence creates momentum and momentum creates money
- Monetizing the things that come naturally to you
- Preventing drive from pushing out the things that really matter to you
- Overcoming fear of failure
- Why you have to be persistent
- How to become an operations professional
- The importance of understanding your values
A lot of the time, the path our lives will take is unclear to us, right? You might wonder why you got a master’s degree in healthcare, or spent fifteen years in corporate America to end up in Entrepreneurship.
But take time to connect the dots. Do you still use the skills you learned back then in your business today? Probably so!
