Balance A Corporate Career and Entrepreneurship: Victoria Pelletier Identifies Barriers to Success

Victoria Pelletier was so exciting to interview because she is still working corporate, but also has a 7-figure speaking “side hustle”. How is she able to work full-time yet also have a business on the side? What do her employers think? Victoria loves working in her corporate job and also wants to keep her business. In this interview, she discusses how to approach your employer from a place of joy and talk about the elephant in the room - your side job. This interview will go into her journey from overcoming early trauma to a C-level executive to a prolific motivational and inspirational speaker who emphasizes the power of DEI on corporate cultures and building a life of resilience. Victoria is nicknamed the “Turn Around Queen” by former colleagues and employers as she inspires and empowers her team and clients to change mindsets and drive growth in business, leadership and culture. As someone who does not subscribe to the status quo, she is always ready for new challenges becoming one of the youngest Chief Operating Officers at the age of 24, a president by 35 and a CEO by age 41. Listen and learn how to have both: a corporate career and a successful business!Notable moments:05:26 – Victoria on how overcoming early trauma informed her professional success10:20 – How she has maintained a corporate career as an entrepreneur19:35 – Advice on buying a business23:32 – Her work in the LGBTQIA+ community28:30 – Victoria’s team and how she delegates work32:17 – Tips for mindset, growth, and goal setting37:31 – Victoria describes how she developed her brand43:22 – How to overcome fear and insecurity44:57 – The discrimination as a queer woman in the workplaceMentioned in the show: Victoria’s Website - https://victoria-pelletier.com/Radical Candor by Kim Scott - https://www.amazon.com/Radical-Candor-Revised-Updated-Saying/dp/1529038340/I'd love to help you grow your freelance business!
