Permission to Dance: Jenn Todling on Clarity, Courage, and the Next You

What if reinvention isn’t a dramatic leap — but a daily practice?

In this episode of Boss Yourself First, Jenn Todling shares her journey from Big Four partner to professor and executive coach, and the powerful lessons she learned about clarity, courage, boundaries, and sustainable success along the way.

Together, we explore how to recognize the signals that change is calling, how to prevent burnout before it happens, and how to build a realistic runway toward the future you’re choosing — without blowing up your life.

This conversation is for anyone feeling successful on paper but restless underneath, wondering what their next right step might be.

🎧 In this episode, you’ll learn how to:

Recognize when it’s time to pivot or reinvent yourself

Create a small-bet plan for your next chapter

Set boundaries that protect your energy and momentum

Reframe fear so action feels possible

Walk away with one clear step you can take this week
