// Chasing Contentment Featuring Marilyn Vetter

from The Flourish Careers Podcast · host Jennifer Smith

Marilyn Vetter is a beautiful example of what it means to lead with heart. She’s driven and accomplished, with an impressive career to show for it—but her path hasn’t always looked that way. For years, Marilyn was caught in the cycle of overwork and achievement addiction. In her chapter, Chasing Contentment, from Brave Women at Work: Lessons in Letting Go, Marilyn reveals the moment she chose to leave the cycle behind and embrace a more fulfilling path forward.⁠ She discovered that real success isn’t found in titles or milestones—it’s in presence, peace, and purpose.⁠ Today, as CEO of Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever, Marilyn is living her values—restoring millions of acres of conservation habitat while showing her team that balance and boundaries matter just as much as results. She’s the kind of leader I always wished for, and her team is so lucky to have her! 🌟⁠ Marilyn's story is a meaningful reminder that you can achieve extraordinary things while living a life that feels grounded + joyful.
