And then life gets in the way and those ambitions remain unfulfilled dreams.
BUT what happens when you let life know that you WILL be pursuing your ambitions in some form?
What lessons can you learn from the performing world which you can apply into your everyday work life and more?
Join me as I chat about this with someone who has made that exact journey, Deborah Meredith.
