Desiree Petrich: From Nursing Homes at 15 to Leading Leadership — a Story of Turning Pain into Purpose
Manage episode 492561320 series 3614645
In this powerful episode, we dive into Desiree’s real, raw, and remarkably relatable story. From working in a nursing home at 15 to leading a dementia facility through the pandemic, from personal tragedy to launching a leadership company, Desiree’s path has been anything but smooth. And that’s exactly what makes it worth listening to.
We talk about:
- Why she felt unqualified for her first leadership role (and what helped her grow into it)
- How personal development books quite literally saved her
- The grief of losing her mom, and how she turned that loss into legacy
- What energy, boundaries, and resistance have to do with building a career (and a life) you actually want
- And the truth about the unglamorous grind of entrepreneurship
Whether you’re navigating your own career pivot, wrestling with purpose, or figuring out how to keep going when things feel heavy — this conversation will hit home. Desiree is the kind of guest who makes you feel seen and reminds you of the power you already hold.
🎧 Listen in and walk away with a little more strength, strategy, and self-belief.
