Making a Career Pivot

CEO

Kara Kelly, Westfuller Advisor, Co-Founder Lure

Your host, Donna Peters, typically sees three career personas in her coaching practice. The person who says, "I want more." The person who asks "How do I make this big decision?" And the person who says, "I'm stuck." In this episode, we interview a guest who may have been all three across the arc of her incredible career. Kara Kelly is a Westfuller Advisor and co-founder of Lure, a CBD wellness venture. She focuses her talents on removing the shame from conversations on sex and money. Kara is a former consulting partner with the world's most premier organizations. She's a mom, wife, daughter, friend.  And she hiked with Oprah!

Kara's career journey is shaped by three core values:

  • understand the whole person, their complete life, don't just take the pieces

  • get to the finish line whole

  • justice and equality

We explore how Kara thought about, planned for, and welcomed significant career pivots. Notable quotables include:

  • Don't give up on your dream.

  • You can be happy every day.

  • Decide what you want to do "during the dash." (the dash is that line between your birth date and your death date on the tombstone, in other words, the dash is your life)
