“You know, Marshall was known in the healthcare space, but there's 100 million Americans who don't know anything about the healthcare space. And those are the people that we're really trying to serve." - Sonja AllenSonja Allen is the Managing Director of the Marshall Allen Project and the Allen Health Academy, and as many of you know, she was also married to our dear friend, the late Marshall Allen. Sonja joined me to discuss how she's continuing Marshall's mission of helping Americans fight back against our healthcare system, using the MAC, an AI clone of Marshall Allen.She also shared the story of her and Marshall's lives together, including how they met and how he found his passion for healthcare journalism, and I'm humbled to have had the chance to capture a permanent record of it for the world. Marshall was a dear friend and an inspiration, and I was honored to have him on the show. I hope you'll tune in this week to hear how we can all continue his legacy.Chapters:(00:00:00) Continuing Marshall Allen's Legacy | with Sonja Allen(00:03:40) Sonja's Experience Growing Up In Kenya(00:08:43) Meeting Marshall Allen(00:16:04) Marshall's Career Transformation(00:30:58) The MAC - The Marshall Allen AI Clone(00:33:53) Empowering Healthcare Navigation Using The MAC(00:42:55) Informing Americans Of Their Healthcare RightsKey Links for Social:@SelfFunded on YouTube for video versions of the podcast and much more - https://www.youtube.com/@SelfFundedListen/watch on Spotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/1TjmrMrkIj0qSmlwAIevKA?si=068a389925474f02Listen on Apple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/self-funded-with-spencer/id1566182286Follow Spencer on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencer-smith-self-funded/Follow Spencer on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/selffundedwithspencer/

In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey.  This year, I've committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it's been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this.During this time, I've been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I'm not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives.I've always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I'm the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I've been like this for as long as I can remember.Looking back, I've come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn't believe in taking vacations; if I did, I'd bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn't working?I dive into this and more in the episode!

In this episode of The Career Flipper Podcast, host Jenny Dempsey chats with Victoria Tara, a Ukrainian-born contemporary artist based in Miami with a story that's full of heart, bold choices, and beautiful color (literally and figuratively).Victoria shares her journey of flipping from a career in psychology and real estate and interior design to becoming a full-time artist. She opens up about the inspiration behind her vibrant paintings, how spirituality and meditation shape her creative process, and why trusting yourself — even when it doesn't make logical sense — is everything.She reminds us that every single experience in life, even the ones that feel totally off-track, adds to the story and can help guide us to our true calling. Plus, she gets real about making time for creativity when life is busy, and shares practical tips for artists (and aspiring artists) trying to juggle it all. Victoria's story is a powerful reminder that art reflects healing, growth, and self-trust. Her career flip is rooted in deep personal exploration — and her words will resonate with anyone standing at the edge of something new and uncertain.Episode TakeawaysHow art can reflect personal healing and transformationWhy trusting yourself is key when making bold career movesHow meditation can enhance creativity and self-awarenessThe beauty of pulling inspiration from life's toughest momentsPractical ways to make time for art, even with a packed scheduleThat balancing multiple careers is not only possible — it can be powerfulThe role of spirituality in creating meaningful workWhy art is often just a natural expression of who we are Connect with VictoriaArt: https://www.victoriatara.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/victoria.tara.art  Thanks for listening to The Career Flipper!If you enjoyed this episode, let's spread the word!

She's a pro at finding the right people, saying the quiet parts out loud, and reminding companies that “professional” doesn't have to mean “emotionally detached robot.”In this episode, Megan and I get into:What it's really like to go solo and start consultingWhy owning your squiggly career path is a total flexHow leaders can stop the talent drain (hint: it starts with respect and ends with not being a jerk)The outdated workplace vibes we're leaving behind (bye, “leave it at the door”)Megan brings the heat, the honesty, and a whole lot of human.
