This week’s podcast is with Dr Catherine Baudino, who after a career in academia is now a coach and mentor to executives, supporting them up the ladder and into retirement, helping them to gain clarity and the confidence they need to overcome the boundaries in their workplace and personal lives.
KEY TAKEAWAYS COVERED IN THE PODCAST
Dr Catherine Baudino is clearly passionate. The corporate life as an executive is lonely and her mission is to bring life back into the executives what she works with because it can be a lonely place and the alternative is not good for you or anyone around you.
She also focuses her work on preparing for retirement. Coming from that level of work, you can’t just stop and have no reason to get out of bed. She suggests remaining engaged as you enter retirement. She says ‘No transition happens over night’.
Show she got there? SHEER DETERMINATION. This is a lady who saw a glass ceiling and broke it and is now supporting others.
Her legacy is her humour and being able to defuse a complex situation. Her most memorable piece is her engagement ring despite the fact that she was no longer with her husband at the time of his death.
Jewellery for Catherine enables conversations as there is usually a story behind every piece. Listen to the podcast to hear her stories.
Top tip - If you want to take advantage of life, pay attention to what's going on around you, listen and learn and consider the perspective of someone else.
