#002: Midlife Career Moves - Mari-Carmen Farmer - a podcast by Lucy Baber

Changing careers can be daunting, but what about making career moves in your 30's or 40's? My dear friend, Mari-Carmen Farmer, joins me to share all about how her life experiences led her to making a midlife career move to become a midwife. Listen in as Mari shares about her experience with loss, the comfort she's found in the symbolism of labyrinth, and how becoming an empty nester left her feeling motivated and accomplished.
