01. Why I Ditched Med School to Become a Copywriter

Welcome to the Blaze Podcast – a supportive community for trailblazing female entrepreneurs, where we believe in doing business (and life) differently! 
My guests and I are pulling back the curtain on conversations that normally happen behind closed doors. We’re sharing practical strategies, no-BS advice, and real stories from female entrepreneurs like you – starting with my own.
This first episode sets the stage for everything to come. I’m sharing all the juicy (and sometimes cringe-worthy) details of why I “gave up” medicine to start a copywriting business…and why I’ve never once regretted it.
Entrepreneurship can be incredibly isolating. This podcast is about creating a space to have those tough conversations, to talk about the things no one else is talking about, and most of all, to remind you that wherever you are on this journey, you’re not in it alone.
If you’ve ever struggled to see yourself as a CEO… 
If you didn’t grow up knowing you were “made for more”... 
If starting a business wasn’t part of your plan but more something you stumbled into by accident…
This one’s for you! Click play to hear my story.
