In this episode I'm chatting with Michelle Strand, Nutritional Therapy Consultant and producer of Women of Impact and Health Theory! In this episode Michelle shares more about how her job at Quest eventually led her to becoming the producer at a digital media company and running multiple shows. She talks about the behind-the-scenes realities of being a producer, the importance of an open company culture, setting boundaries with a demanding job, and respecting people's time. We also talk about the different ways people stay motivated, who should be an entrepreneur, and what it's like working on a team. We discuss how to pitch yourself to a show, how to ask for a favor, the best way to contact people professionally, and more.
