Linda Monahan
Corporate to Calm
Hi there my name is Linda Monahan & in 2017 I realised that my professional life was at odds with my personal life. I had two children in quick succession & when the career I loved no longer loved me I had a decision to make. The biggest of my life, the decision which catapulted me on my journey from Corporate to Calm. I am now on a journey to talk to others & find out what was their motivation, their catalyst to move from Corporate to Calm.
