Shannon Russell

Booking Overview

This weekly interview and solo-expert show focuses on career change, entrepreneurship, and helping women turn corporate experience or side projects into second-act businesses; external guests are typically accessible professionals sharing practical expertise or personal reinvention stories. Strong candidates include women entrepreneurs, career-transition coaches, personal-branding and marketing experts, authors, speakers, and professionals with credible midlife career-pivot experiences. Booking difficulty is low because the show regularly features emerging experts, coaches, authors, and entrepreneurs rather than highly prominent public figures.
