Ep. 24 Following Her Heart into Journalism with Julie Rose

Most people only know Julie Rose, Host of Top of Mind Podcast, as a journalist. But she didn’t start out in this field, even though she had always wanted to pursue journalism. 

Why? You guessed it! Societal pressures and fear, including fear that she wouldn’t be able to raise a family and be a successful reporter at the same time. She figured PR would be a better route and easier to manage. 

In this episode Julie shares her reinvention story and topics like: 

• Behind the scenes peek at life on the radio and the potential for burnout   
• The moment she realized her PR job wasn’t fulfilling and how she sparked joy in her life again
• Talent doesn’t always equate to your purpose 
• The importance of the question: “How can I do more of this?” (These moments are clues for what you enjoy.) 
• How she got her big break in journalism and became a full-time reporter 
• How she gave up her dream job to ensure her values were in alignment - this is such an important message! 
• Caring for her elderly parents and how the spiritual component in her life helped her prioritize their needs over her career
• How she’s overcome fears in her career through clinical anxiety and perfectionist tendencies 

Plus, we discuss the power of the word YES! Where do you need to start saying yes in your life? Tune in now and find out. 

And wait until you hear her fun fact about how she decompresses! It’s not your typical take a vacation or rest answer.
