10X Vision Mina Fung

Why would anyone want to be in the criminal justice system? What does it take? As a criminal defence barrister, how did Karlia Lykourgou even find the inspiration and time to start a side business in fashion?
All these questions in my head led to my quest to invite Karlia as my podcast guest. As you could imagine, finding a schedule that worked for both of us was challenging. But I'm so glad we did it. I love this conversation and hope you'll also find it interesting and enjoyable while learning a few tips about building two careers in parallel.

Elena Haskins is a parallel entrepreneur who can show us how things can be done differently.
She is a product designer and founder of CONVERGE that is based in New York City. She did this  interview at the airport of Tulsa when she accepted an invitation to check out the city for relocation. Now she is enjoying her new life there, with new friends and new clients while the Tulsa Remote program paid her $10,000 to do the relocation for 1 year.
What is it about Elena that opportunities seem to always find her or she always finds opportunities?
Once you start listening, you will likely find out the WHY? She is fascinating and full of energy. 
Another reason I invited Elena as a guest was because of her work supporting new graduates. She founded CONVERGE to support recent college graduates navigate life after college through accessible resources. Elena is a big advocate for career advancement for women and BIPOC folks and is very active in communities and networking groups that focus on personal finance and professional empowerment.  
Whether you are a founder, a creative or a new graduate,  you would likely find a tip or two on building a career or a business through our conversation.

Kate Field is an emergency doctor in Tasmania, Australia. She also trains ER doctors while running a farm with her husband, Iain Field (a PhD himself). Kate's interview  is released in two parts.
In today's episode (part 1), Kate shares her inspiration in medicine, her choice in becoming an emergency doctor instead of a surgeon, and her decision to own and run a farm with her husband. Did her work and social circles think she's crazy to make such a move? 
She also shares how her early financial habits and decisions with her husband had allowed them to buy a farm, without a loan or taking on outside investments.
Next week, our second part of the conversation will be on Covid-19 and the post-pandemic health care solutions Kate would want to see. She has some great and bold ideas. She'll also shares her worries as an ER doctor with two young kids at home and how she weathers this crisis with her farm business. Stay tuned.
