Carrie Sechel on Making Partner and Leaving a "Comfortable Hell"

<p>Former Deloitte partner, coach, speaker, and trainer</p> <p>Show notes: <a href="https://www.markgraban.com/mistake19">https://www.markgraban.com/mistake19</a></p> <p>Joining me for Episode #19 is <a href="https://www.carriesechel.com/">Carrie Sechel</a>, a former Deloitte partner who now works as a coach, speaker, and trainer. As Carrie explains:</p> <p><em>"After years of building my career as a partner at Deloitte, I found my family broken by guilt, shame, resentment, and addiction. My husband, Todd, and I committed to creating our own family model that celebrates the best of each of us. Now, we have a relationship and life that I couldn’t even imagine a few years ago."</em></p> <p>She has over 20 years of coaching and consulting experience. Carrie is the author of the bestselling book, <a href="https://amzn.to/36E7xgj"><em>BASE Jump: Finding Yourself In An Unfulfilling Professional World</em></a> and she is a co-author of the <a href="https://amzn.to/3lBx7bU"><em>WarriHER Playbook</em></a>.</p> <p>In our conversation, Carrie shares a mistake from her time at Deloitte, where what might have been characterized as a "human error" and a "process error" was really, to her, a "management error" that she was responsible for. This situation and the "gap" she identified between "what I am and what I'm pressured to be" led to her departure and her increased focus on female breadwinners and the particular issues that can create in lives, families, and careers.</p> --- Support this podcast: <a href="https://anchor.fm/favorite-mistake/support" rel="payment">https://anchor.fm/favorite-mistake/support</a>
