Description
My guest today is Petra Vujaskovic and she is one of my people - she quit her job without a plan. After starting her recruiting career in New York at JP Morgan, Petra took a detour and went to Miami. She had plans of working there for a while but in her heart, she knew she should go closer to family, to the place where her parents had come from: Croatia. But, COVID hit so her plans changed for a bit. She had a baby and soon after quit her job and moved half-way around the world.This conversation was pretty significant for me. Not only do I get to talk to someone who is going through the “messy middle” like me, but I also got to hear the truth about motherhood from someone who wants to tell it like it is: it’s thankless, it’s the hardest thing she’s ever had to do, and there is absolutely no performance review in motherhood (which, for someone who thrives on feedback, is a very scary thought.) Petra and I dove into everything from the scary thought of "Am I ever going to be hireable again?" to the liberating realization that it's okay not to have all the answers. This episode is for anyone looking for a genuine, down-to-earth talk about the twists and turns of life changes. So if you're in need of some honest conversation and a few laughs (and don't mind my cold-affected voice), this one's for you. This is a public episode.
