Heather Kays: Truth, Accountability, and Healing

In Episode 7, Heather Kays discusses her nonlinear career journey from advertising sales to award-winning journalism, marketing management, and authorship. Starting at age 18 in sales, Heather transitioned to journalism by volunteering for tasks no one wanted, eventually earning a reporter position. She speaks on the value of networking, honesty in career progression, and self-advocacy against unrealistic expectations. Heather's transition into writing was catalyzed by personal trauma and the healing power of storytelling, culminating in her book "Pieces of Us." The episode delves into the themes of honesty as defiance, the therapeutic role of writing, and the courage to pursue happiness against societal scripts.Guest Information:Connect with Heather Kays on Linkedin or InstagramReferences:The Alchemists - A Coven of Creatives Credits and Acknowledgements:Hosted, Produced, and Edited by Heather Pridemore.Thank you for tuning into small acts of rebellion.  Ready to start a revolution?
