Amy Jacobson - Finding Your Y

Season #2 Episode #7

When Amy was 17, she really disappointed her parents. Actually, her dad was pissed. At that moment, she decided to prove them wrong and would show them that she could be successful without going to university straight out of school. After climbing the corporate ladder and earning a "university-qualified" equivalent income, Amy felt like she had absolutely smashed her parents' doubts and fears and more importantly, proved them wrong. One month after Amy achieved her final measure of success of an executive-level title and pay packet, she handed in her resignation and notice period. Amy started to come back to her core fascination with the mind. Attending conferences and workshops, hearing speakers, gaining qualifications, being a speaker and trainer herself, and working with people each and every day as a leader, it started to become clear...it was time.  She had found her ‘y’ and it was time for me to listen to herself and act on the advice she was sharing with so many others.  This is Amy's story of evolution...
