| 2025 Podcast Recap: Gratitude, Growth & a Misspelled Logo | 06 Nov 2025 | 00:24:59 | |
In this heartfelt season wrap-up, host Jenny Dempsey reflects on everything The Career Flipper has become, and everyone who made it possible. What started as a personal experiment after being laid off has turned into a global community of second-chancers, dreamers, and brave souls rewriting their stories one imperfect step at a time. Jenny shares highlights from 2025: from a bartender in the Caribbean to a software engineer turned chocolate maker, and the lessons she’s learned from 86 incredible guests who have become unexpected mentors. She also opens up about juggling her full-time job, flipping furniture, grieving, and laughing her way through life, including the story of how she accidentally printed her misspelled logo on every piece of marketing material before her first big event. This episode is honest, funny, and full of gratitude, a love letter to everyone who’s ever listened, shared, or dared to flip their own story. What You’ll Hear:

| From the film industry to professional dog walker, meet Justin Cohen | 30 Oct 2025 | 01:05:07 | |
Sometimes your next career move comes with four paws and a leash. 🐾 In this episode, Jenny chats with Justin Cohen, founder of Justin Walks Dogs in Los Angeles, about how he flipped his career, and his mental health, by trading spreadsheets and studio lots for sunshine, fresh air, and wagging tails. After years in the film industry, Justin was burnt out, anxious, and craving meaning. A wild trip abroad (involving a rat and a rabies scare, yes, really) led him back to LA, where he stumbled onto a dog-walking app that completely changed his life. What started as a side gig turned into a thriving small business, and a huge boost to his wellbeing. Jenny and Justin talk about what it takes to walk away from a “good on paper” career, the freedom of self-employment, the mental health perks of spending your days outside, and how dogs have a magical way of leading us exactly where we’re meant to go. What you’ll hear:

| From IT executive to founder & owner of Human Insights Consulting Group, meet Jenn Lorenz | 23 Oct 2025 | 00:35:26 | |
After two decades in government, most recently as Deputy Chief Information Officer for the New York State Office of Information Technology Services, Jenn Lorenz did something bold: she walked away. In this episode of The Career Flipper Podcast, host Jenny Dempsey chats with Jen about what it really takes to leave stability behind and create a career (and life) on your own terms. From her early days as a single mom rebuilding after divorce to building teams in IT leadership and now launching her own business, Human Insights Consulting Group, Jen’s story is proof that reinvention can happen at any stage, and that you’re never starting from scratch. We dive into:
Whether you’re stuck in a role that doesn’t fit anymore or dreaming about your “someday” plan, Jen’s story will remind you that someday can start with just one small step. Connect with Jenn

| From lawyer to therapist and author, meet Lauren Tetenbaum | 16 Oct 2025 | 00:33:24 | |
In this week’s episode of The Career Flipper, I’m joined by Lauren Tetenbaum, a former lawyer turned psychotherapist and author, who’s made it her mission to help women navigate the big, messy transitions of life, from career pivots to motherhood to (yep) perimenopause. Lauren’s story is one of courage, self-awareness, and trusting your gut when the path you’re on just doesn’t fit anymore. After years in the legal world, she decided to build a life that aligned with her values, one centered around supporting women and sparking honest conversations about topics we don’t talk about enough, like menopause, mental health, and identity shifts. And let me tell you: this conversation could not have come at a better time for me personally. I’m in the early days of my own perimenopause journey, and honestly, no one really prepares you for it. Lauren’s compassion, insight, and humor made me feel seen, and I think you’ll feel that too. We get real about:
If you’ve ever found yourself wondering “Is it me, or is everything changing?”, this one’s for you. Connect with Lauren

| From product manager at Amazon to startup founder, meet Jane Dashevsky | 09 Oct 2025 | 00:41:47 | |
What happens when you spend 10 years at Amazon, love your job, love your team and then parenthood shakes everything up? That’s the story of Jane Dashevsky. Becoming a mom of two under two made her start asking the big questions: What do I really want for myself? For my family? That entrepreneurial spark she’d carried deep down finally pushed her to walk away from stability and build something of her own. Jane is now the founder of The Starter Set, an AI-powered service that helps parents cut through the chaos of baby product shopping. Because let’s be honest, the last thing overwhelmed parents need is another late-night Google spiral about strollers. In this episode, Jane gets real about:

| Laid off? Now what? Finding healing, hope and your next step with Steve Jaffe, Author of The Layoff Journey | 25 Sep 2025 | 00:41:48 | |
When host Jenny Dempsey got laid off back in 2022, she had no clue what I was doing. She was crying on her couch, trying to figure out who she even was without my job. No one hands you a guide for that kind of loss. It honestly felt like the ground fell out from under her. And then along comes Steve Jaffe. Turns out, he literally wrote the book I wish I had back then: The Layoff Journey: From Dismissal to Discovery. Steve’s been through four layoffs (yes, four!) and instead of letting it crush him, he mapped out the stages of grief that come with job loss. Reading his book brought up so many of my own memories, everything from the shock and shame to that messy process of rebuilding your identity. It made me cry, it gave me hope, and it reminded me I’m not alone. In this conversation with Steve, we talk about:
This one hit so close to home for me, and if you’ve ever been laid off, or even just wondered who you are without your job, I think it’ll resonate with you too. Connect with Steve

| From corporate banking to mother + leadership coach, meet Raina Gandhi | 11 Sep 2025 | 00:37:29 | |
What happens when you step out of the workforce for 11 years to raise your kids and then try to step back in? For Raina Gandhi, it meant climbing back into high-pressure roles, bumping up against workplace politics (and yes, bullying), and eventually realizing she wanted something different. In this episode, Raina shares the very real story of her career flip from investment banking to higher ed leadership to being laid off, and how all of those experiences shaped the work she does today. Now, as the founder of Rising Tide Consulting, she helps women leaders and entrepreneurs break through what she calls the inner glass ceiling: those voices of self-doubt, perfectionism, and “I’m not enough” that keep so many of us stuck. We go deep into:
This conversation is raw, vulnerable, and packed with insights for anyone who’s ever second-guessed themselves at work or wondered if it’s too late to start over. Raina reminds us: the “hard stuff” you’ve gone through isn’t wasted. It can become the most powerful part of your story and the fuel for whatever you build next. Connect with Raina:

| From talent acquisition to to Tai Chi instructor, meet Baiba Wisse | 28 Aug 2025 | 00:57:31 | |
Meet Baiba Wisse, a multi-passionate creative from Raleigh, North Carolina, who spent a decade in global talent acquisition before life handed her a plot twist: a layoff. While she was still working in recruiting, Baiba discovered her favorite part of the job wasn’t the spreadsheets or the scheduling, it was the human connection. She loved coaching candidates, hearing their career stories, and helping people see their own potential. That passion inspired her to start her own podcast, The Career in Technicolor, where she interviews people about their career journeys in living color. But when the layoff hit, she found herself in that all-too-familiar “what now?” moment. Instead of sitting still (because that’s not her style), Baiba leaned into her creative energy, painting, cooking, cleaning, and trying new things. She also followed her curiosity into movement and stress relief, recently earning her Tai Chi instructor certification. Now, she’s on a mission to bring Tai Chi into corporate settings, helping teams manage stress, move more, and age well. I met Baiba early in my own podcasting journey, and we’ve been swapping ideas and cheering each other on ever since. She’s been a generous supporter, a creative sounding board, and now I’m flipping the mic so you can hear her story. What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

What happens when life rips up your plan and hands you an unexpected invitation to start over? In this episode of The Career Flipper, host Jenny Dempsey sits down with Lori Wallace, executive recruiter, mentor, and all‑around career‑flipping muse. We talk about the serendipitous way we met (spoiler: Jenny was pretending I worked at an art show) and her journey from corporate banking to a total physical and emotional breakdown that changed everything. These days, we often hear stories about COVID being the turning point for career change but Lori takes us back to another moment that shook the world: 9/11. It was the catalyst that impacted her health, her career, and ultimately, the way she lives and works today. In this conversation, Lori shares:

This week, I got to chat with my friend Liz Dekofsky. She lives in LA, works full-time in a customer-facing job, and runs the coolest little side business curating thrifted style bundles. If you’ve ever walked into a thrift store and felt totally overwhelmed or just didn’t have the energy to dig through the racks, Liz gets it. That’s why she does the hunting for you, and her eye for finding great pieces is seriously next-level. But this episode goes deeper than just clothes. Liz recently got sober, and it’s been a huge turning point in her life. That decision gave her the clarity and confidence to stop hiding parts of herself and start doing more of what lights her up. We talk about what it’s like to balance a side hustle with a full-time job, how she deals with imposter syndrome (hint: it’s still there, but she doesn’t let it run the show), and how she’s learning to show up more fully as herself. If you’ve been sitting on an idea, waiting for the perfect moment, or thinking you need to be “fully ready” before you start something, this episode is your permission slip to just go for it. Starting messy is still starting. And Liz is proof that small steps can lead to big, beautiful changes. Let’s get into it.

| One year of flipping: Cocoon reflections, career chaos & an original song | 29 Jul 2025 | 00:19:17 | |
Welcome to a special solo episode of The Career Flipper Podcast! It’s the podcastaversary! One year ago, I hit publish on the very first episode of this show, having no idea what I was doing and definitely not realizing how much it would change my life. What started in the messy aftermath of a 2022 layoff (and 400+ job rejections) became a permission slip to rebuild, to reimagine success, and to start over without a map. In this episode, I share the behind-the-scenes of how this podcast came to be, how flipping furniture helped me flip my identity, and how conversations with guests like: Nick Musica, a former SEO guy turned animal psychic Trish Jasinski, who bought a chateau in the south of France and left corporate to open a retreat space Cat Cheng, a former music teacher turned Netflix-featured baker (hi, tres leches dreams) And Case Sandberg, who I met at a farmer’s market and learned had just left his software engineering job to become a chocolate maker …helped me feel less alone and more alive. Oh and I’m sharing a piece of my music. I wrote a song called Just Wait, about getting laid off, getting lost, and learning how to come back to yourself. Skip to 14:28 if you want to jump straight to the song. Whether you’re in the middle of your own career flip, cocoon season, or identity unraveling, I hope this episode reminds you that you don’t need permission from anyone else to change your life. You can give it to yourself. 🎧 Listen, share, and leave a review if this one resonates. Thanks for tuning in to The Career Flipper!

What happens when you walk away from academia and turn your deep love of language, story, and the arts into a strategic superpower? In this episode of The Career Flipper Podcast, I sit down with Lisa Chensvold, a classically-trained soprano and former musicologist based in Washington, DC, who made a bold leap from the world of academia to the world of strategic communications.

| From software engineer to customer experience to AI entrepreneur, meet Mariena Quintanilla | 17 Jul 2025 | 00:53:42 | |
In this episode, you’ll meet Mariena Quintanilla, a Los Angeles-based career flipper who proves you can pivot, even within the same industry. After spending nearly two decades in tech, moving through roles in software engineering, product management, solutions architecture, and customer experience (plus navigating a layoff), Mariena had a realization: she didn’t want to keep climbing the corporate ladder but she still loved tech. So, she made the leap. Today, Mariena runs Mellonhead.co, an AI education and consulting company helping others make sense of emerging technology. In our conversation, we talk about:
Mariena doesn’t sugarcoat the messy middle. She shares what it really felt like to start over, the fears she faced, and the courage it took to rebuild on her own terms.

In this episode, host Jenny Dempsey chats with Joseph Rudd, who went from selling bathroom fixtures in London to managing personal brands in the marketing world. His journey is a real-deal look at what it takes to flip your career when everything feels uncertain.

Joseph’s story is a reminder that it’s never too late to start something new, and you don’t need a fancy title or perfect plan to begin.

| From corporate marketing to chateau owner & event curator, meet Trish Jasinski | 26 Jun 2025 | 00:46:29 | |
Sometimes a joke turns into a new life. Trish Jasinski had built a fulfilling, decades-long career in corporate marketing—and she really loved it. But during the pandemic, while working remotely from a very tiny Paris apartment, she started joking with friends that châteaux in the countryside were cheaper than her shoebox of a flat. Just for fun—and with zero plans to actually buy—she went château shopping. And then it happened. She stepped into Château de Gère, a 14th-century stone fortress tucked into the Vallée d’Ossau, and something inside her said, “This is it.” So she did the unthinkable: she bought it. With no plan. Just heart. Now, Trish lives in a quiet French village where sheep outnumber people, and she’s turned the château into a beautiful retreat and event space. She’s taken everything she learned from her corporate years and poured it into this new life—this wild, magical, entirely unexpected next chapter. In this episode, we talk about:

| Cocoon Conversation for June 2025 | 24 Jun 2025 | 00:13:28 | |
In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations," host Jenny Dempsey gets real about the emotional rollercoaster of juggling her career and furniture-flipping side hustle. She spills on burnout, imposter syndrome, and the chaos of pricing her art (“Am I worth it?!”). Jenny shares her messy, vulnerable moments—singing to her furniture, doubting herself, and still showing up. She reminds us that spirals aren’t failures, but part of the process, and that confidence is more like a flickering patio light than a spotlight. It’s raw, relatable, and a little unhinged—in the best way. Thanks for tuning in to The Career Flipper!

| From software engineer to chocolate maker, meet Case Sandberg | 19 Jun 2025 | 00:45:04 | |
What happens when a software engineer follows a sweet little spark of curiosity all the way to the farmer’s market? In this episode, host Jenny Dempsey chats with Case Sandberg, founder of San Diego Chocolate Co., about what it really looks like to leave a stable tech job and step into the (often melty) world of handcrafted chocolate. We talk about perfectionism, pivoting with purpose, building something from scratch, and why your next chapter doesn’t need a polished plan — just a little momentum and maybe a glass of chocolate milk. Whether you're dreaming of leaving tech, craving a more hands-on life, or just want to feel seen in the mess of figuring it all out — this one’s for you. In this episode, we talk about:

In this episode of The Career Flipper, I chat with Jenna Leveille, who went from working as a merchant in the travelling Renaissance Festival circuit to becoming the Deputy State Cartographer of Arizona and now she’s the VP of State and Local Government Strategy at a mapping company. But this journey? It’s anything but straight. Jenna’s path weaves through non-traditional college years, a detour into zoology (because saving the world felt like a good place to start), and finally landing in the world of geospatial tech and GIS. We talk about what it’s like to not have it all figured out, to follow your curiosity, and to keep showing up, even when the next step is unclear. If you’ve ever felt like your career map is a bit...hand-drawn in pencil, this one’s for you. Jenna proves you can absolutely make your own route—and that community, resilience, and a little self-trust can take you further than you imagined.

| Cocoon Conversations: My Career Flip Progress for May 2025 | 27 May 2025 | 00:15:31 | |
In this episode of "Cocoon Conversations" on the Career Flipper podcast, I, Jenny Dempsey, take you along on my career journey. This year, I’ve committed to opening up about my own career flip, just as I encourage my guests to do. So here we are, in May 2025, and I can hardly believe it’s been four months since I started my current day job. It feels surreal to say that, especially considering I was laid off for two years before this. During this time, I’ve been balancing my full-time job with furniture restoration on the side, dedicating Sundays to it, and squeezing in podcasting and all the related tasks whenever I can. If that sounds overwhelming, it is! Life can be a juggling act, and I know I’m not alone in feeling this way. Scheduling time with friends often feels like a game of Tetris, as we all navigate our busy lives. I’ve always been the type of person who thrives on variety. I’m the one multitasking—doing laundry while putting away dishes, preparing to record a podcast, creating social media content for my furniture flipping page, and making sure my dog, Dwight, gets outside for a potty break. My brain has always thrived on this mix of activities, and I’ve been like this for as long as I can remember. Looking back, I’ve come to realize something significant. For a long time, I believed that work—capital W work—was my identity. I thought it was the only thing I was good at. I didn’t believe in taking vacations; if I did, I’d bring my laptop along and continue working. I even had a panic attack in front of a customer service team I was managing because I was so consumed by my job. I poured everything into my work, only to learn the hard way that companies would replace me in an instant. When I was laid off and struggled to find a new job for two years, I was left questioning my identity. Who was I if I wasn’t working? I dive into this and more in the episode!

| From academia to holistic canine nutrition, meet Alexia Mellor | 22 May 2025 | 00:44:14 | |
In today’s episode, we’re talking with Alexia, a holistic canine nutritionist who made an unexpected career flip, thanks to her dog. Alexia started her journey deep in the world of academia and art in the sustainability sector, researching, writing, and painting. But then her dog (yes, her sweet pup, Lucky) flipped her whole life upside down in the best way possible. Now? She helps dogs thrive, feel better, eat better, and live longer—with a perfect blend of heart, soul, and science. It’s the ultimate plot twist! We dive into how Alexia transitioned from thinking she was locked into a creative and academic career to discovering her true calling in canine wellness. She talks about embracing discomfort, leaning into the chaos, and the identity shift that comes with going from “I thought I’d be doing X forever” to “Wait, maybe I’m meant to help dogs heal instead?” We also get into how Alexia created Mystic Dog Mama, her podcast and community focused on holistic pet care and personal growth, all while leaning into the weirdness of following unexpected paths. Whether you’re someone questioning everything or you’re just looking for a little inspiration to follow those furry breadcrumbs in your own life, this episode is for you!

| From psychology to real estate to artist, meet Victoria Tara | 15 May 2025 | 00:40:10 | |
In this episode of The Career Flipper Podcast, host Jenny Dempsey chats with Victoria Tara, a Ukrainian-born contemporary artist based in Miami with a story that’s full of heart, bold choices, and beautiful color (literally and figuratively). Victoria shares her journey of flipping from a career in psychology and real estate and interior design to becoming a full-time artist. She opens up about the inspiration behind her vibrant paintings, how spirituality and meditation shape her creative process, and why trusting yourself — even when it doesn’t make logical sense — is everything. She reminds us that every single experience in life, even the ones that feel totally off-track, adds to the story and can help guide us to our true calling. Plus, she gets real about making time for creativity when life is busy, and shares practical tips for artists (and aspiring artists) trying to juggle it all. Victoria’s story is a powerful reminder that art reflects healing, growth, and self-trust. Her career flip is rooted in deep personal exploration — and her words will resonate with anyone standing at the edge of something new and uncertain. Episode Takeaways

She’s a pro at finding the right people, saying the quiet parts out loud, and reminding companies that “professional” doesn’t have to mean “emotionally detached robot.” In this episode, Megan and I get into:
