So you set your career goal and are excited for the journey... until you're not. It happens. We think we know exactly what we want, and then when we get it, it becomes very apparent that it isn't satisfying for one reason or another. That is what happened for Jen Joe... not once but twice! Jen is courageous enough to take a leap and follow her passion, and has done so in everything from pursuing a career in education to living abroad. However, education was not going to provide her with the life she envisioned. So, while she loved providing guidance for others, she knew education in a traditional sense was not for her. Her own life coach suggested she try coaching... but as an introvert, how would she go about this? She tried following the strategies promoted by other coaches and it simply wasn't working. Listen to Jen Joe talk about how she crafted her own strategy for success and how you can do the same.

As someone who struggles to draw a stick figure, it seems far-fetched that I would leave my corporate comfort zone to dive head-first into a career as an artist... but that is exactly what Nancy Marks did. Nancy convinced herself that she had no artistic skills whatsoever, until she signed up for a fused glass class to spend quality time with her mother, and discovered a passion and talent while "embracing the imperfections" of art. She then merged her corporate and creative skills to start her own studio. Brilliant! Love this conversation and the lessons learned from it.

For many of us, our pets are family, and few things are as crushing as learning that a family member has been diagnosed with cancer, knowing the battle they have ahead of them. Thankfully we have people like Ashley Kalinauskas, who launched a cancer-battling biotech start‑up that resulted from her graduate thesis project at the University of Notre Dame.
Ashley Kalinauskas is the founder and CEO of Torigen, a biotechnology company helping our furry best friends live longer, healthier lives. Their initial product, VetiVax, is a personalized cancer vaccine that was originally developed to move forward for human clinical studies, but was repositioned to help the millions of dogs, cats and horses after a cancer diagnosis. Ashley has grown the company from an idea on the scientific benchtop, to a company of over 30 employees poised to help grow the animal health industry. Not only is Ashley a brilliant researcher, she is also a keen businesswoman who has successfully raised $16 million in investment funds so that they can continue to develop innovative immunotherapies.
Ashley has been recognized with numerous awards, such as Forbes 30 Under 30 2020, Animal Health Innovation USA Award 2021, Notre Dame Domer Dozen 2021, and Hartford Business Journal's 2023 Power 50.
