#0032: Jennifer Farmer on grace, pace + walking the line between mission and burnout

Jennifer’s debut book, "Extraordinary PR, Ordinary Budget: A Strategy Guide" was released June 2017. She is the managing director of communications for PICO National Network, and the founder of Spotlight PR LLC, a boutique communications consultancy which provides strategic communications counsel and public relations coaching. She is one hard-working woman.Not only do we talk about work pace, we talk about her work at PICO National Network, a faith-based community organization, and how she transitioned from working in politics to communications. She also talks about PICO’s Live Free Campaign, which addresses gun violence and mass incarceration in many cities across the United States.Because much of what Jennifer does is mission-focused, advocative and so very humanizing, she always feels drawn to do more. When she was heading straight towards a major burnout, she had to assess what was happening and to turn everything around. Jennifer and I cover so much ground about what it’s like to achieve without overworking. I truly hope that you come away from this podcast with some clarity, inspiration, calm or a combo platter of all three. The episode is ready for your listening pleasure. Grab a cup of hot tea (or your favorite beverage of choice), get cozy, and press play.Selected link love + resources from the episodeConnect with Jennifer on social media:  Facebook | TwitterJennifer Farmer’s WebsitePICO National NetworkPICO’s Live Free CampaignUniversity of RochesterSenator Mark MalloryThe Dave Ramsey ShowExtraordinary PR, Ordinary Budget: A Strategy GuideNot For Bread Alone,  Konosuke MatsushitaKickass Theme Music: “Things Are Getting Better” Written by Rishi Dhir.
