Description

Through all of these episodes of Be The Good, I love noting the recurring themes. One of these is the aspect of a nonlinear, ever-adjusting ‘path’. Today’s guest is an excellent example of following the doors that open, learning all one can, and creating a life around following passions:

Entertainment multi-hyphenate to the ‘nth degree’, Marlene Sharp is president of Pink Poodle Productions, with her right hand gal, rescue pup Blanche.

Marlene’s journey to where she is now includes working in so many facets of the entertainment industry, which has given her an incredibly well-rounded background.

Marlene ended up immersed in the animation world, learning more than she ever thought she would about the kids’ animation and toy markets!

Highlights to catch:

• How Marlene credits temping for helping her to her current career. (Hint: She ended up working for the office that brought Power Rangers to the USA.)
• “Forced Entrepreneurship” aka how a full time job ending led her to her own full time production company
• If you like LinkedIn or want to dive in more, find Marlene there– she’s even won awards for her work on the platform
• For the freelancers and entertainment industry professionals out there, hear how the ‘side hustles’ along the way can be things you are passionate about and/or they can lead you to your biggest career step
