Designing Your Best Professional Life with Marcia 🌈

What does it really mean to live your best professional life—especially when the world throws you curveballs?

This week on Empowered & Out, I sit down with the phenomenal Marcia Wall, a certified career coach, educator, and DEI-rooted professional who helps people build careers that feel like home. Her journey is deeply rooted in wellness, creativity, and resilience—especially in the wake of collective trauma like Hurricane Katrina, which reshaped her path and purpose.

Together, we explore:

✨ The myth of the perfect, linear career

✨ Why emotional + mental wellness must be non-negotiable

✨ The joy of being out and seen in our careers

✨ Career transformation after disruption

✨ Coaching that blends strategy and soul

This episode is for anyone craving more meaning, more freedom, and more joy in how they work and live.
