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!

Laura shares her journey from dairy farm beginnings to corporate success and ultimately developing her "Zone of Genius" methodology after experiencing profound dissatisfaction despite achieving her career goals. Laura distinguishes between fleeting passions and deeper purpose, explaining that professional satisfaction comes from identifying both your "genius" (intellectual challenge) and "purpose" (intrinsic motivation). She guides listeners through practical techniques for self-observation, documenting moments of peak engagement, and recognizing patterns in fulfilling work experiences that reveal their unique strengths. For physicians feeling trapped or unfulfilled, Laura's approach offers a pathway to break free from conformity in medicine. Her books and performance trackers available on lauragarnett.com provide resources for self-guided discovery, reframing career development as a process of self-empowerment rather than following predetermined paths—a particularly valuable perspective for medical professionals accustomed to structured career progression.

Melissa Davey took the adage about it's never too late to try something new quite seriously. This wasn't about jumping out of an airplane kind of stuff. In her sixties, she retired from a lengthy corporate career to pursue her second act and dream of becoming a filmmaker. I always tell teens I coach or meet who are stressed about picking a college major and choosing a career path, that the average American changes careers, not just jobs, seven times in their lifetimes. You never know when circumstances allow you to drop the grind and forge a new direction, like you heard Australian Maddy Reynolds do in a WASP episode a few weeks ago when she dumped the corporate world to become a pro trail runner. Melissa was the Vice President of Social Security and Managed Disability at GENEX for 22 years, sat on the company's executive team, and worked throughout the United States to create and deliver services to the disability insurance marketplace. But after a day on the set with famed screenwriter and filmmaker M Night Shyamalan, she decided to take a risk and left her career to jump into the unknown. Pursuing her dream of becoming a filmmaker became a reality in late 2018 when Melissa completed her first feature film, Beyond Sixty, which highlights stories of women making similar jumps, including the woman behind the original voice of Siri, the Madam CJ Walker biographer, and the sculptor of Lady Gaga's Fame perfume carriage. During 2019, Melissa's film was accepted by and screened at eight film festivals throughout the United States and Canada, winning awards and confirming that it is never too late to learn something new. Picked up by a distributor and released in 2021, the film is currently available on most streaming platforms. Melissa's second film, Climbing into Life, details the inspiring life story of Dierdre Wolownick, the oldest woman to ascend El Capitan, who also happens to be the mother of famed free solo climber Alex Honnold. The film is currently making the film festival rounds. Melissa is a champion to show that it isn't too late for people over 60, particularly women to explore new pathways and make a profound impact on the world. It's such a great message to share, and she does it with an infectious energy as you'll find out in this episode.Melissa Daveymelissadavey.combeyondsixty.commelissa@melissadavey.comFacebook Beyond Sixty DocumentaryInstagram @beyond60project and @climbing_into_lifeBill Stahlsilly_billy@msn.comFacebook Bill StahlInstagram and Threads @stahlor and @we_are_superman_podcastYouTube We Are Superman PodcastSubscribe to the We Are Superman Newsletter!https://mailchi.mp/dab62cfc01f8/newsletter-signup

I'm thrilled to have Randy Myers on the show. His story is one of transformation, resilience, and following your passions wherever they may lead. Randy's career journey began as a voracious reader and film enthusiast, which evolved into a successful career in journalism—covering features, sports, and reviewing films for major publications. But it was his training for the AIDS Life/Cycle ride over a decade ago that set him on a completely new path into becoming a fitness instructor and trainer. I admire how Randy dove right into a new career path - even though he started in his 50s - all the while still happily continuing being a journalist! I met Randy over a year ago attending a bunch of his amazing fitness classes and I was always interested in why he always spoke about screening films, writing reviews and interviewing actors and directors while also giving these skilled fitness classes. I really do admire his passion for both journalism and fitness. These careers seem so far apart which is why Randy's story is so inspiring!Find Randy on instagram at www.instagram.com/soitsrandyFor more information about Lisa and to see her art and design, check out lisamazurstudio.comInstagram: @lisamazur_art_designFacebook: facebook.com/lisa.mazur.14

In this episode, we explore the striking parallels between the 19th-century Opium Wars and modern digital addiction. Just as Britain and France used opium to weaken and control China, today's wireless technologies—search engines, social media, short-form videos, and pornography—exploit human vulnerabilities to create a new kind of dependency.We'll start with a brief history of the Opium Wars, then shift to the "wireless opium dens" of today, where digital addiction keeps people locked in a cycle of endless engagement while increasing their RF radiation exposure. Many struggle to give up their smartphones—their primary source of personal radiation—until it's too late. But breaking free is possible, and this episode offers a plan to help.We'll also touch on a fascinating bit of 1990s tech that foreshadowed today's digital addiction, along with an update on the Spring 2025 New Career in EMF Assessment class.If you're ready to reclaim your autonomy and health in a world designed to keep you hooked, this episode is for you.

Please join me in welcoming Axel, Barrie, and Marlo.  In this episode, we discuss the following:
