The After Chapter Podcast

Michele Lamarre and Cecilia Nelson-Hurt

The After Chapter Podcast is the only podcast that treats the in-between as the destination, not the obstacle. We focus on the space between what was and what's next, where people who look like they have it together on the outside are expected to have answers they don't yet have. Instead of pushing for clarity, we stay with the questions. Reflective, grounded conversations exploring identity through career shifts, leadership evolution, and personal change. Hosted by Michele Lamarre and Cecilia Nelson-Hurt.
