113: It's Never too Late to Learn with Julia Taylor

<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">I am so excited to introduce you all to my very special guest, Julia Taylor, today. Julia is the CEO and Founder of GeekPack, an organization which exists to empower women to change their lives for the better through the power of code, community, and confidence. They teach valuable technological and business building skills, provide the support of an encouraging community, and build the confidence to believe that any dream is achievable. The journey that led Julia to create this remarkable organization is a fascinating and inspiring one which she shares with us all here today.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Julia starts by telling us about who she is, what she does, and the road that has brought her to where she is today - educating women who wish to start or grow businesses. She goes on to share the best three places she has spent time in as a traveler, the beauty of owning your own business, and how her intern program students remain part of the community even after the program has ended. Julia also explores the most challenging aspects of being a business owner, including the work-life balance, mindset, and imposter syndrome, and elaborates on her future goals. Finally, Julia recounts the most significant transformation she has seen with her students and explains the importance of coaching within her program. Hot on the heels of my previous episode about rejection, Julia's tale, as shared here today, is one that educates as well as inspires, and is definitely one that we all need to hear.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Don’t forget, if there is ever a topic you would like me to discuss, a guest you'd like me to interview on the podcast, or feedback you wish to offer, please feel free to contact me at</span> <a href= "mailto:pr@kellytravis.net"><span style= "font-weight: 400;">pr@kellytravis.net</span></a> <span style= "font-weight: 400;">- I would love to hear from you!</span></p> <p><strong><br /> The Finer Details of This Episode:</strong></p>
