Curating Career Life Stories: How Did I Get Here? Ep. 11 with Stacy Taubman

Join me for the career story reflection of Stacy Taubman, Founder/CEO of RISE Collaborative Workspace. A journey about achieving her initial career aspirations of becoming a teacher, principal and school counselor. Then the events and realization causing her to reinvent herself as an entrepreneur after twelve years of teaching, two master’s degrees and two undergraduate degrees. Learn how she evolves her side hustle into a successful business by staying focused on her “why” and being flexible with the “how” and the “what”. Interviews that started as a means to learn from smart, strong, successful women entrepreneurs, were really unintentional qualitative market research. Thousands of interviews later, she’s running two RISE collaborative workspaces in two different cities. She attributes her success to her high standards acquired as a competitive gymnast and to her ability to solve math problems.
