Disrupt Yourself Podcast with Whitney Johnson #123: Karen Beattie - Comfortable With Change
To say that Karen Beattie is comfortable with change is a bit of an understatement.
Her childhood was nomadic, with her father’s job taking her family to such diverse places as Trinidad, the Caribbean, Libya, Nigeria, United Arab Emirates, and the Philippines. It was not unusual for her father to come home and say, “We’re moving to a different country.” And Karen loved it.
It hasn’t been easy; Karen compares her professional life to a roller coaster. Through it all, Karen has found that being comfortable with change has given her opportunities she never would have dreamed of as a kid.
“[W]hat I did was I made a choice. Yes, do I want this. It’s going to be hard. So I intentionally stepped into it.”
Join us as we delve into Karen’s early career, her pursuit of flexibility and freedom, and how she took the leap for the right kind of risk.
