Description

Small business is big business, no matter which way you look at it.
This episode with Narelle Wilson, founder of Volta Consulting, is all about giving you the real, relatable, vulnerable experience of making small to medium businesses you love, so that you’re hyped to keep smashing it.
We talk about:

The realities of stepping away from a long held corporate career, in particular within male dominated environments, and the sneaky glory of a slow goodbye when doing so
Studying for the sheer passion of it, whether for the first time or 5th, at any damn age you like
Mitigating start-up mode risk – some very valuable advice on that
And considering the legacy you might be able to leave with the work that you do, a particular area of interest for me and anyone else who may be living a life childfree.

It’s encouragement to lean into your core, developed skills to bridge you into the new space you want to be in while learning new skills along the way.
There is so much goodness in the sharing of this incredible woman’s business building story, if you’re aligning a business o your values, this episode is for you.

This weekly podcast explores what it’s like to be starting your career over, with the people who’ve done it. In conversation, we tackle the messy middle of changing your life - how it feels to drop the identity of whatever came before and step into a brand new you – with, or without a plan.  Your host is Kim Kerton (hi!) the creator behind the handmade ceramics and plant-based recipes of Good Side of the Bed, a writer, marketer, yoga teacher, sea-changer, rev-head and pug mum. Before all that, Kim spent over a decade in the commercial media business. She decided to walk away, got unemployed and afraid, and here we are. This podcast is for the brave people who want to start over but are feeling the fear - maybe putting off starting because the end isn’t clear - and for those who find themselves right in the middle of the whirlwind. Whether by choice or by push, starting over is scary, Unemployed & Afraid is your tribe on the pathway through change.
