with Job Share Academy student Elizabeth McQueen
“You can be ambitious AND you can spend a lot of time with your family AND you can be successful, you just have to figure out how you want to do it and who you want to do it with.
Job Share Academy opened my eyes to the fact that it can look a lot of ways. If you’re willing to put in the work, you can make something cool happen,” says Elizabeth McQueen.
Work Muse online training & coaching program Job Share Academy is taken in a supportive, hands-on cohort, including weekly group coaching with yours truly. The doors to Job Share Academy have just opened up for a limited-time enrollment. If you are curious about what taking the program is like, Elizabeth gives an in-depth view into what taking the program looks like, on a practical basis in Episode 9.
Job Share Academy student Elizabeth McQueen talks with me about her experience inside of the program and how she used job sharing first in a volunteer role as PTA Co-President, and then, in her current role as a co-host and co-producer of Pause Play podcast for KUTX. Elizabeth was curious about the idea of job sharing and how it could help her manage the partnership that she had, but also how she might apply job sharing to her life in the future.
