From Corporate Career to Entrepreneur in the Wake of Sobriety with Emily Holland For The Love Of: Trade-offs we make in pursuit of our passions

    • Society & Culture

We want your stories! (Yes, you.) We're collecting emails and voice memos about your own tradeoffs that you’ve made around your career.
Go to fortheloveofpod.com/submit to share your written or spoken story about the pivots you've made in your career, work, gigs, or jobby jobs.
 
Emily Holland is a podcast consultant and strategist in Boulder, CO. In a previous life, Emily was a corporate girlie, working with Fortune 500 companies as an account manager. In 2021, she left the corporate world and set out on the path of self employment, working primarily with podcasters to help build, grow, and monetize their shows. 
Outside of working with creatives in the outdoor industry, she loves being outside, climbing or trail running, preferably with a great female crew and some pups.
 
We talk about…
 
- The identity crisis of leaving a full time job
- Knowing that the conventional path wasn’t for her or her partner after trying to follow it
- Moving from the northeast to Colorado to be closer to outdoor passions
- How your income doesn’t equate to your worth (but that’s hard to not feel!)
- Openness with a partner about money and financial goals, including having money dates (cute!)
- Sobriety and the decision to stop drinking
- The “So you’re not fun anymore?” reaction from loved ones when you stop drinking
- How you can support people in your life who are considering sobriety
- How self-employment is a constant experiment with ups and downs
- Being your own boss through the wins and challenges
