Never Ever Give Up Hope How Do You Recreate Your Life After Setbacks and Become More Successful?
Before the COVID‑19 pandemic, Julie Marty‑Pearson spent nearly 20 years working in higher education. While she built a successful career, the demands of her work began to take a toll on her health. After being diagnosed with kidney disease, she lost her father six months later. In 2019, she stepped away from her role to undergo surgery. When the pandemic began shortly thereafter, higher education institutions shut down—leaving her unexpectedly unemployed. That pause created space for reflection and ultimately led her to pursue a new professional path grounded in purpose, flexibility, and fulfillment.
Julie Marty‑Pearson, PsyD, is a podcaster, speaker, coach, advocate, and storyteller who empowers women to share their stories through podcasting. She hosts two shows: The Story of My Pet, which features inspiring pet stories while advocating for animal rescue, fostering, and adoption; and Podcast Your Story Now, which spotlights women podcasters and guests as they amplify their voices and grow their businesses through podcasting.
