Summary

Today in episode 82 of Redirected, we sit down with our next guest on this 30 under 30 series, Taylor Stern. Taylor walks us through a recent change in her career; and needless to say, we're excited for her. Taylor was a content strategist and social media coordinator at the Dallas Cowboys for 6 years until she decided she wanted to live a life that inspired her. Taylor wanted to write her own story, and she's started to do just that. She recently left the Cowboys organization, where she was apart of winning an Emmy and helped to build a following on social media platforms of over 20 million, to dive into the world of entrepreneurship. She recently launched a podcast called 'Thrivin in the Wild' where you’ll hear weekly stories from people who have stepped into their wild and learned to trust their own compass. Tune in to hear her reflect with me about how this redirection has shaped her journey in a whole new way. If you haven’t yet, please rate Redirected and subscribe to hear more.
