In this episode of Career Coaching Secrets, host Pedro sits down with Natasia Schumacher, PCC, a coach who built her success not through traditional education—but through real-life struggles, resilience, and relentless action. From dropping out early to reaching a high six-figure corporate career, Natasia shares how achieving “success” still left her feeling empty—and why she made the bold decision to walk away and start over. This episode dives into the reality of building a coaching business from the ground up, doing the work before feeling ready, and turning pain, discomfort, and self-doubt into power. https://lnkd.in/gKf9qEAa

Teams can win the same way in the workplace as they do in hockey or any sport — through discipline, accountability, and relentless improvement. Culture isn’t a small detail or a slogan; it’s the starting point and the foundation. You have to model it, live it, and set the example every day.
