Hey, it's Arlesha
Have you been busy working hard to cement your footing in your industry that you’ve de-prioritized the achievement of other personal life desires? Or need extra motivation on balancing the pursuit of your ambitions?
I’m Arlesha Amazan, a purpose-driven mover-and-shaker proudly harmonizing life and ambition. Join me weekly on the Hey, its Arlesha podcast for gems, insights and frameworks that will elevate the playbook of your life. The contents of each episode is inspired by my very own “life hustle” and career as a Sports Marketing Executive who balances life while supporting some of the world’s greatest Champion Athletes (you may know them as the G.O.A.T.S), Personalities and Brands. This is a podcast that will help you prioritize your life, move purposefully and accomplish those career goals all at the same time.
For Season 2, I’m taking you through “The Gems Between the Pages” of my career scrapbook—a collection of my 14-year run in the sports industry thus far. Throughout each episode, I’ll share gems, learnings and insights that drive my career approach and outlook in the hopes it’ll inspire you to harmonize your life and career ambitions.
Let’s elevate the playbook of our lives together.
