Do you find you are collecting skill sets to achieve future success and positions in your career? But what happens when the internal steam for your chosen career runs out mid-career? How do you navigate into a new path? I interviewed my best friend's husband about his 18 year career in higher education only to realize his career path was not fulfilling. He decided to go back to school in his late thirties as a married father of two children in order to build a brand-new, unrelated career path for himself. This insightful conversation is for anyone questioning their career midway through it. I'm so proud of Michael for being able to take the leap and share his brave story.

You won't want to miss this literal "wash rags" to riches story as a local Montpelier, Ohio (population 3,500), Hometown Hero shares the secrets to her business success. Going against the odds of starting a food business (in 2010 after the economic crash) in a rural town where restaurants typically don't make it past one year of operation, Becky Freese (aka The Cookie Lady) built an ultra successful cookie business that has gone global. She bakes the best chocolate chip cookie in the world (no joke), and now ships to every state in the United States and to all parts of the world including Germany and Japan. Taste them for yourself!
Becky Freese
Becky has been married to her husband Ron for 35 years (August 2020) and is the proud mother of her 3 children, and 4 grandchildren. At the age of 10, Becky delivered the local The Bryan Times newspaper and then four years later began working as a waitress. She ended up in various restaurants for 22 years all while raising a family. Once her children were in school, she began working at a local hospital as a Unit Secretary. She moved her way up to a Surgical Services Supervisor, but at the same time, she began baking cookies out of her home to support her kid's sporting events that eventually turned into a thriving, global business called Cookies on Demand. She celebrated her 10-year anniversary on July 13, 2020.

Monica reached out to me after listening to podcast episode #7 with "The World's Happiest Taxi Driver", Rod Malone. It turns out that Monica had also met Rod while riding in his taxi in Dublin, Ireland. You won't want to miss my incredible conversation with Monica on today's podcast.
Monica owned a holistic and alternative medicine clinic early in her career but joined "the enemy" pharmaceutical industry after a doctor, who tried to save her daughter Josephine, told her "if you can't beat us, then join us" when she searched for answers about her daughter's death. Monica shares uncanny and spiritual life moments that will give you goosebumps.
Monica Muggi Erstad
Monica lives a very blessed life in Denmark and is the proud mother of a son and two daughters. She was born and raised in a small, seaside town north of Copenhagen, Denmark.

Her career started out working at a concert promotion agency.

I got into Rod Malone's taxi in Dublin, Ireland, while traveling the world. Small talk led to one of the most impactful 15-minute conversations of my life as Rod drove me to my destination. Rod's story of leaving the corporate world to become a taxi driver and his profound outlook on life is an incredible lesson everyone should listen to. The next time you are in Dublin, you will need to make sure to hail Rod!
Rod MaloneRod was born and raised near Dublin, Ireland, and currently lives in the Irish capital. He is married with two children and one grandchild with a second on the way due in November. Rod trained as a mechanic and went to help out his brother manage a petrol station, Esso, for a couple of days and ended up staying for 22 years. He started as a petrol attendant and worked his way up to managing teams of up to 40 for multiple stores.
After being poached by a rival fuel company called Topaz and working there for 6 years, Rod had ambitions for a larger challenge so he joined a major DVD rental company in Ireland as a District Manager with approximately 150 staff spread across 17 stores.
However, one year into his new, challenging job, Rod realized he was unhappy. He had changed inside and didn't like what he had become. Rod went through a transformation and put many of the things he loved together: a love of people, an ambition to be independent, and a love of driving. Rod became a taxi driver and eight years later, Rod remains the happiest he has ever been.

Anthony Head is a role model for so many and his story will not only captivate you but it will also inspire you to become the best version of yourself.
After growing up in Dayton, Ohio, around violence in a home surrounded by crack-cocaine, Anthony lost both his parents and then both of his foster parents by the time he left for college on a football scholarship to Ball State University where he eventually left the team during his freshman season. Anthony blocked out his early depression to become one of the brightest business school graduates along with becoming Vice President of the Student Government Association. As an underdog, he pursued a career as an NFL football player in his early 20s.
During a visit back to his hometown, Anthony was mistakenly identified for a criminal on the run because of the color of his skin, tased seven times, and spent 30 days in the county jail. While Anthony has successfully pursued a career in business consulting, he developed a passion for cooking which has led him to obtain his culinary degree, work alongside celebrity chefs, win numerous culinary awards and recently design and open a new restaurant.
Anthony HeadAnthony was born and raised in Dayton, Ohio. After graduating from Ball State University, Anthony worked in the healthcare industry as a consultant. While managing his personal life and a family, he attended culinary school and he quickly ascended the culinary ranks to Executive Chef.
Anthony has won many accolades and honors over the past 10 years including "Restaurant of the Year" by the local chamber of commerce, Miami Valley's 40 under 40 business professionals by the Dayton Business Journal and "People's Choice Award" at the Taste of Miami Valley. Throughout his professional cooking career, Chef Head has incorporated updated, healthier interpretations of traditional comfort foods of the American South and the fusion of international flavor profiles.
As an educator and lifelong learner, Anthony leads a monthly cooking segment on Dayton's NBC affiliate, WDTN. And most recently, he has opened his first restaurant of his own called Chicken Head's (formerly named "The Chicken Spot").

My name is Cory Calvin, and I'm thrilled to welcome you to my podcast.
My purpose is to inspire others to live their best life. On my podcast I interview ordinary people creating extraordinary success and blazing their own trail in life. We all have fears that attempt to hold us back and on this podcast you will hear tips and strategies from people who are facing their struggles to break through. These conversations will be inspiring, uplifting and fulfilling. It will be your weekly dose of inspiration.
About Cory Calvin
I was a successful corporate executive with Fortune 500 firms in New York, St. Petersburg (FL), and Chicago for over 16 years. After years of struggling to answer the adage "find a job you love so that it doesn't feel like work", I finally listened to my gut and realized that I was not living the life that I had wanted to live. In 2017, I built up enough confidence to leave my job and career to travel nonstop around the world.
While traveling to all seven continents, I discovered my higher purpose in life: to inspire people to become their best self. My mission is to inspire one million people by the time I reach the age of 50 (I just started at 40 in 2019). Check out my personal website www.corycalvin.com to see how I am doing. And if I have inspired you, be sure to add yourself to my ongoing inspiration counter.
I now lead a location independent lifestyle. While traveling through remote Southeast Asia, I completed my first book "I Almost Became Me: A Memoir". And in June 2019, I launched a transformational travel company to inspire others to listen to their gut and follow their passions in life.
