In this episode, I speak with Tammy Gooler Loeb, a Career and Executive Leadership Coach and the Host of the "Work from the Inside Out" podcast. Tammy shares her journey from growing up on Long Island to becoming a coach and podcaster. We dive into how podcasting has opened doors for her, allowing her to have meaningful conversations with people she might not have otherwise met. Tammy talks about the importance of listening to your inner voice and making career moves that align with your true passions, rather than just sticking to what you're good at.
We also discuss her book, "Work from the Inside Out," which features stories of people overcoming common obstacles in their careers. Tammy explains how the book and her podcast aim to show what's possible when you follow your instincts and take ownership of your career. Whether you're looking to make a career change or just want to hear some inspiring stories, this episode is packed with insights and practical advice.
Join us for a heartfelt conversation that might just inspire you to take the next step in your own career journey.
