Over the last few months, we’ve had some amazing women on the podcast and a common thread has begun to emerge: no matter the industry they’re leading, almost all of them have made a career change — sometimes a major career shift! Debi Brooks is perhaps one of the best people to talk to about what it means to make a total career 180, and embrace your true passion in the process. For many years, she enjoyed an extremely successful career at Goldman Sachs, but in her late 30s, she went back to school, got a master's degree in social work, and three years later, co-founded the Michael J. Fox Foundation. Under her leadership, the organization just hit the incredible milestone of nearly 2 billion dollars — yes billion — raised to fund the research that will hopefully find a cure for Parkinson’s Disease one day in the very near future.
