Episode 169: Shannon Miles | How to Create Your Own Third Option to Have Both a Career and a Family

I have been looking forward to putting today's conversation in your ears for a long time. Shannon Miles joins me around the table. She is the CEO and Co-founder of Belay which is a staffing company serving businesses all over the US.    When Shannon faced an all too common, yet emotional decision to stay home with her new baby or return to a fast-paced, demanding career (that she loved), she knew that there had to be a way to have both. Shannon shares her story and advice on how she didn't take no for an option. We talk about her book titled "The Third Option" which is all about figuring out how to have both a career and family. We talk about what to do when you feel stuck and how to figure out that next step.   If you enjoyed today's episode, would you take a screenshot and share it on your favorite social channels and tag me.
