Happenstance the podcast explores how we create careers out of both the planned and the unplanned experiences in our lives. How opportunity and hard work and the unexpected all come together to create the various paths that we all take. As a career coach, I believe that our careers are not a single, one-time, decision that we make but are a series of experiences and decisions surrounding both the well thought out and the things that just…well happen.

89: Art Mimics Life - Romance Edition with Author and Booktok Creator KC Leonard

Friday, February 23, 2024 • Duration 48:21

Art mimics life and this podcast episode is celebrating all things love, books, and diving into creative outlets.

Kim, KC Leonard, joins us to talk about BookTok and its role in catapulting lesser-known books to fame, the romance genre of books, and her own writing career. We dive into the stigma attached to romance novels and their perceived link to unrealistic relationship expectations and the reality that not only does art mimic life but that romance novels are also an opportunity to see how characters who aren't perfect can be perfect for each other.

An avid reader, Kim read 175 novels in 2023 along and gives us a glimpse into her own experience with booktok and her journey as an author of her upcoming book, Peer Reviewed.

Exploring creative outlets outside her career as a physician and university instructor, Kim first stepped into the romance book world at the beginning of 2022. The genre and community had an incredible impact on her outlook on relationships, both romantic and platonic. After creating a small community of book lovers via social media, Kim decided to try her hand behind the keyboard. Her debut novel, Peer Reviewed, is set to be independently published in September of 2024.

86: Thank You More Please with Date Brazen Founder and Dating Coach Lily Womble

Friday, February 9, 2024 • Duration 43:30

Dating doesn't have to suck. In fact, building a confident and joyful dating life is the focus of Lily Womble's work with Date Brazen.

Lily is on a mission to break dumb dating rules, to reset the download and delete cycle, and to help others find their most joyful, confident dating lives.

In this episode we dive into the misconception around being deemed "too much" and dive into the power of seeking out what you want through the "Thank you, more please" approach.

let's see where happenstance and "thank you, more please" takes us...

Lily Womble is sparking a feminist revolution in the way we date and find love. She was one of the top matchmakers in the U.S., but after setting up hundreds of dates, Lily realized that the answer to finding love was much deeper than a setup, and that the way we are taught to date is still stuck in the patriarchal dark ages. She founded her company, Date Brazen, six years ago and has since helped hundreds of women create love lives that are epic, settle-proof, and joyful-as-hell with her intersectional feminist approach.

She changes lives daily on TikTok, Top 4 Relationship Podcast- The Date Brazen Podcast, and sold-out coaching programs world-wide. Her debut nonfiction advice book, Thank You, More Please: A feminist guide to breaking dumb dating rules and finding love, comes out in June 2024 with Legacy Lit. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband, Chris.

84: Human First with Nicole Elliott

Friday, January 26, 2024 • Duration 41:06

Sometimes our career paths come down to those small moments. A note on a homework assignment. An invitation to an event. A google search.

Nicole Elliott is a conversion copywriter & messaging strategist who specializes in human-sounding, non-salesy sales copy for entrepreneurs. She began her writing career in academia, but got sick of its painfully dry, stuffy, drained-of-all-personality approach to writing.

After a brief detour into teaching ESL, she found copywriting (and the chance to write like a human!), and never looked back. Today, she cooks up copy with her 3-Step Human First Messaging Approach to help clients nail down their brand voice, capture their audience's actual words with extensive "Voice of Customer" research, and strategically blend the two together for copy that connects and converts.

Let's see where Happenstance takes us...
