#079 - In this episode, Latiece, a former Find Your Fulfilling Career client, talks about her journey from going through four different accounting jobs to joining FYFC and finally getting clarity and confidence in what had been misaligned in her career. Latiece shares how... She didn't initially join FYFC because she wasn't sure if it was the right time to make the investment, but ultimately joined after her fourth unsuccessful job change.
