Career Break Story: Leaving Attorney Life for a Family Roadtrip Around the US with Carmelita Tiu

<p><span>Carmelita Tiu (aka Millie or Cat), is passionate about doing good in the world and raising her kids to become good adults. She's a podcaster, creative, lawyer, educator, spouse, and mom to two daughters. After receiving her art degree and law degree, she worked as an attorney at The Oprah Winfrey Show and OWN: The Oprah Winfrey Network for several years, then pivoted to the design and advertising world for almost a decade before hitting pause and taking a career break.</span></p> <p><span>Though she's based in Chicago, she's currently looping around the U.S. with her family for the 2021-22 school year -- a bucket list dive into memory-making, hyperfocusing on the family, and pouring into passion projects. She's the producer and host of "Know Them, Be Them, Raise Them", a podcast to help mindful and growth-oriented moms of tween &amp; teen girls stay informed and inspired. She's also roadschooling her daughters (with mixed results!) on this epic journey they're taking.</span></p> <p>Learn more about Cat here:</p> <p><a href="knowberaisethem.com">Cat's Website</a></p> <p><a href="instagram.com/knowberaisethem">Instagram</a></p> <p><a href="facebook.com/knowberaisethem">Facebook</a></p> <p><a href="instagram.com/tripping.on.purpose">Family Travel Instagram</a>&nbsp;</p> <p>If you enjoyed today's episode and had a&nbsp;takeaway moment to share,&nbsp;be sure to take a screenshot and tag me<span>&nbsp;(</span><a href="http://www.instagram.com/thetravelshifters">@thetravelshifters</a>)&nbsp;and&nbsp;Cat (<a href="https://www.instagram.com/knowberaisethem">@knowberaisethem</a>) on Instagram and let us know what it was!
