Stepping away from the corporate world into entrepreneurship isn't just about changing careers—it's about transforming your identity, mindset, and relationship with work. In this candid conversation with Deb Boulanger, CEO of Life After Corporate, we explore the often challenging but deeply rewarding journey that high-achieving women navigate when launching their own businesses.Deb shares her personal transition story, from teaching to corporate leadership to founding her own company, revealing that the entrepreneurial path proved more difficult than anticipated. She explains how the identity shift from having preset calendars and clear expectations to designing your own business requires mastering not just strategy, but your internal dialogue. We dig into the psychological barriers that hold women back—particularly around pricing and self-worth—uncovering the startling reality that women entrepreneurs earn just 30 cents to the dollar compared to their male counterparts.Financial considerations take center stage as Deb recommends having at least a year's cushion before making the leap, while noting that expenses typically decrease after leaving corporate life. For women caught between staying in corporate or launching a business, she emphasizes the importance of making a clear decision rather than vacillating, as "the universe can't deliver on a split desire."The conversation moves beyond the misleading image of entrepreneurship portrayed on social media to address practical matters like work-life "blend," the critical importance of networking, and how to approach business development. Deb's advice culminates in encouraging women to trust their intuition—what she calls "the niggle"—and to price based on the transformation they deliver rather than trying to be merely affordable.Whether you're contemplating leaving corporate, have recently been laid off, or are already building your business, this episode offers honest insights to help you navigate your journey with greater confidence and clarity.

Accountable Leadership is not for Everyone As the leader, you are responsible for everything! You are accountable for the decisions that you make, or don't make. You will be held accountable for the decisions your team makes, or doesn't make. Even more, you will be held accountable for the failures, while giving your team the credit for the wins. You are accountable for your hires. If they work out, great! If they don't...you are on the hook for them. You will be responsible for innovation and creativity as a leader. If the business is not innovative or creative...it's on You! This doesn't sound like it is much fun to be a leader. Well, the fact is, all that accountability can be very rewarding as you remain curious and build into the lives of your people. In this episode of A New Direction, we are joined by former CEO of Tipperary Sales Inc., current Executive Coach and Best-selling author Martha Brown. As she gives practical guidance to leaders at any stage, from her latest book, "It's On You!" Martha Brown's book, "It's On You! Empowerment for Leaders Seeking the Highest Level of Personal Satisfaction and Corporate Success" is a fantastic read from a former CEO who knows how to grow her business and increase profitability. It's on you! It is a self-described guide for emerging and aspiring CEO's and leaders, and the book does not disappoint. I walked away from the book with three in-depth insights from Martha Brown and "It's on You!"  A leader needs to be Strong, Accountable, and Compassionate.  And when you can combine those things successfully, you will have been a great leader. Martha addresses a number of leadership issues from "owning your team", to "creativity and innovation", to "having the hard conversations" to "making sure you have time for you"...and so much more! It's on You! is not a leadership philosophy book. This book has also built in at the end of every chapter, a moment to reflect on where you are at in your leadership, and then a "Step Into Action" section, where she gives you actionable ideas to improve. Simply a great leadership book.  I think it is a must-read.  Get your copy here! Please reach out and thank the sponsors of A New Direction!

Paul Brown recently joined Mark Longbottom on the Purposely Podcast to share his unique career journey, which has taken him from corporate roles to leading nonprofit organisations, with a strong focus on international development. Paul began his career in the corporate sector after earning a degree in civil engineering. He worked in marketing roles at Ford Motor Company and ASB Bank. However, in 2000, his priorities shifted. Wanting to contribute to his community, he began volunteering at Starship Children's Hospital. This experience sparked his passion for making a difference and led him to join ChildFund New Zealand. Stepping into the nonprofit sector presented a steep learning curve. Just two weeks into his new role, the Asian tsunami struck, requiring an urgent and effective fundraising response. This experience highlighted the need for organisations to be prepared for global emergencies and strengthened Brown's commitment to the work. During his 17 years at ChildFund, Brown helped transform the organisation. He expanded its focus from fundraising alone to prioritising programme impact. He championed initiatives that supported long-term community development, particularly in the Pacific region, and worked to address local issues like inequality and child poverty in New Zealand. One of Brown's key contributions to the sector was helping establish the Emergency Alliance, a coalition of nine aid agencies in New Zealand. The Alliance collaborates to respond more effectively to global emergencies, reducing inefficiencies caused by competition for donor funds. Its first joint appeal supported the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, although it faced challenges in gaining public engagement. Beyond his work with Emergency Alliance, Brown leads BoardWorks, a consultancy focused on improving governance across New Zealand. Through BoardWorks, he helps organisations strengthen their boards, ensuring they stay mission-focused and operate effectively.
