From TV to Pole Dancing: Joanne Getson's Inspiring Journey of Finding Passion and Purpose

One question I often ask my clients is 'How is this the best thing that ever happened to you?' It's not about sugar-coating the negative, but about reframing it in a way that allows us to move forward with positivity and strength. It's a powerful tool, and I've seen it transform the way people view their challenges. #MoveForward #TransformYourChallenges In this episode of the Crown Yourself podcast, host Kimberly Spencer interviews Joanne Getson, a former entertainment industry professional who has transitioned into the fitness and pole dancing industry. They discuss Joanne's journey, the skills she's gained from improvisational comedy, and how she uses the "yes and" mindset to navigate challenges. Joanne also shares her experience of building her own business, the importance of aligning with personal values, and the significance of hobbies outside work. They touch on time management, team leadership, and the role of fun in the workplace. Joanne also shares her admiration for author Colette and her great-grandmother's pioneering spirit.
