Sometimes, when you think the worst happens, it can actually be the best thing. For wildlife biologist Jamie Bowles of the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, losing her job in the medical field launched her wildlife career…I met Jamie through LinkedIn. She has been so supportive of my posts, and I quickly recognized that, like me, she prioritized and loved mentoring. With her ample and sage advice about getting into wildlife careers, I knew she would be the perfect guest for the podcast.Throughout this interview, Jamie calls herself lucky. I don't think she's lucky at all. Rather, she did the RIGHT things to set herself up so that when opportunities were available, they were GIVEN to her. As the Roman philosopher Seneca once said, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.” Jamie set herself up for success.Now having worked at the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife for nine years, Jamie has held a multitude of different jobs. She started out working in fish, but later moved on to work on everything from habitat, to wolves, to now porcupines, and working with the public. She also did this while being a mom of four! As you'll find out from our interview, Jamie had children when she was 18 and went to college after she became a mom. In her wildlife career, she was always going to school and working towards getting this career while balancing it with motherhood, and she has some amazing wisdom about how she did it.However, Jamie's story is not without its challenges–she got a later start in her career than more traditional students, having turned to wildlife biology after losing her job in the medical field amidst the COVID-19 pandemic (which she later realized was a blessing in disguise!). She returned to school as a non-traditional student, being older and also a mom.Although Jamie was aware of these challenges, she didn't let them hold her back. She was strategic. Through networking, flexibility, and operating with knowledge of a long-term career plan, Bowles was well-prepared when opportunity presented itself. Luck alone would not have gotten her to where she is today!I have worked with hundreds of students, sharing my over 20 years of knowledge as a wildlife biologist to help them land permanent careers in this field, and I know for a FACT that you don't need luck to land your dream job – you make it happen.Jamie's hard work has led her all over Oregon, working with numerous species of wildlife. From backpacking up the mountains as an intern with fish in bags (yes, fish in bags!), to managing wolf-human relationships, to launching a community science project to document North American porcupine presence, Jamie Bowles has truly done it all! I can't wait for you to listen to this episode and hear all about the exciting, fun, and crazy stories she has to tell.Jamie also recognizes that success is not a path that is walked alone. She stresses the importance of mentorship, and we talk all about how to find a mentor, what you can gain from mentorship, and the role it played in her career. Once a mentee, and now a mentor herself, check out Jamie Bowles' LinkedIn for great advice about wildlife careers!If you're interested in wildlife biology, especially as a non-traditional student or career switcher, you will be left inspired following along with Jamie Bowles' journey and how she got to where she is today. Her resilience will motivate you, and her wisdom will leave you feeling like you, too, can conquer not only the challenges that this field presents but whatever personal obstacles you're facing as well.You will learn that Jamie put herself out there, that she was actively networking, and she made opportunities happen for her.Specifically, I go over:Jamie Bowles' experience working in wildlife biology at the state level and how she landed her first jobsWhat it's like to work in different types of positions within a state agency, and what it takes to get jobs like thoseThe competitive nature of wildlife careersThe importance of networking and finding good mentorsHow experience and education help you land a permanent position in wildlife careersCrazy experiences she's had while on the jobWhat it's like working with wolvesHer experiences working in wildlife biology as a mom of four And MORE!Dream of being a wildlife biologist, zoologist, conservation biologist, or ecologist? Ready to turn your love of animals into a thriving career?

Watching her grow, build, reinvent, and create from the inside out has been inspiring, and honestly, a little wild, in the best way. Cynthia Mensah-Neglokpe is the founder of clicqui and KORE. In this conversation, we talked about starting over,  more than once. About what burnout really looks like when you're the one everyone counts on. And how community, when done right, can quite literally bring you back to yourself.You'll hear how Cynthia went from managing luxury brands to building grassroots spaces in four cities, all while figuring out how to protect her energy and build something that actually lasts. If you've ever thought about creating something real, something that connects people and still keeps you whole. This one's for you.Let's get into it.

In this episode, you'll learn: Why many authors resist networking—and how to gently shift that mindset How your Enneagram type may influence your relationship with connection The difference between transactional vs. transformational networks Tips for building relationships that don't feel forced or fake What to do if you're socially anxious, neurodivergent, or easily overwhelmed Simple strategies to start (or deepen) meaningful author connections Takeaway Challenge: Reach out to one person in the writing industry you like but haven't spoken to in a while.
