Niche Talks™ #13 - Penny Lee and Auriel Majumdar

In this episode we are talking about carving your own path later on in a career with Auriel Majumdar. Auriel is a Creative Coach, Supervisor, Consultant and Educator. As the daughter of first generation immigrant father, an Indian doctor – for years Auriel did the dutiful thing – until in her mid 40’s she didn’t and took a career shift – now at 61 she’s expanding more into that space. We talk about getting started. The beginning being a tricky place and how you make that leap. Building your body of work, 'your body of evidence'. Building your confidence and the trust of people who then work with you. Getting your reputation and having pride and love for what you do. Another reminder this is a long game. Niching down to build on that expertise. And the brilliant question 'does it thrill you to death?' when deciding on what. you want – really want – to be working on.  SHOW NOTES: https://www.aurielmajumdar.com/ https://www.instagram.com/aurielmajumdar/ https://www.chrismsaunders.com/#/ Find Penny here - www.thebranddirectoress.com TAKEAWAYS Carving your own path and following your passion can lead to a fulfilling career.
