What if the skills you already have could open the door to a career you actually love?

This week, we’re joined by the brilliant Ashleigh Beadle, who opens up about her non-linear path from law school dreams to launching her own consulting business.

Ashleigh shares the real story behind her career pivots—what worked, what didn’t, and how she leaned into her transferable skills (even when things didn’t go to plan). We chat about navigating uncertainty, staying aligned with your values, and how she’s now helping small businesses with HR and compliance through her company, Sage and Saunter.

If you've ever felt stuck, unsure, or ready for a career shift, this episode will remind you that there’s power in the pivot.

🎙️ Topics we cover:

• Letting go of a linear career plan
• Using your skillset in new and unexpected ways
• Building a business with intention
• Why community and support matter during career transitions

💡 Ashleigh’s story is a reminder that squiggly careers aren't just common—they're where the magic happens.
