Show Notes

In today's episode, I explore the multifaceted dynamics of balancing a creative career, parenting, and personal identity. Our guest, Chauncey Zalkin, shares her journey from being a senior VP in marketing to a creative entrepreneur focusing on writing and fiction projects, with aspirations to become a therapist. We discuss the challenges of maintaining authenticity, the influence of her entrepreneurial father and artistically inclined mother on her pursuits, and the importance of creative legacy. She also talks about her experience with school performance, balancing twin birthdays, and the need for intentional growth in entrepreneurship. We also hone in on empathetic parenting, co-parenting, the significance of accountability, and Chauncey's dreams of writing a book, collaborating on screenplays, and building a community through her podcast 'Actual People' and Substack.
