From Ski Bum to CEO: Why Your "Wasted" Years Are Actually Building Your Future

Environmental studies major. Ski instructor. Weather girl. TV producer for National Geographic and Real Housewives. CEO of a $1.2M+ commercial cleaning company with 800+ employees.

Shari Cedar's career path makes absolutely no sense on paper—until you understand how every seemingly unrelated chapter built the exact skills she needed for the next one.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• Why what you don't know should inspire you, not scare you
• How to become an expert in anything (hint: it's a TV production skill)
• The moment Shari realized her "cool, sexy" career was leaving her empty
• Why working with your spouse requires staying in your lane
• How to know when to say no to opportunities (even money)
• The discipline required to build a people-first culture across 800+ employees
• Why time management is the one skill she wishes she'd developed earlier

Shari went from parachuting into different worlds as a producer to building a commercial cleaning empire that provides stability for hundreds of families. Her identity was so wrapped up in being a TV producer that when people asked what she did, she couldn't say "commercial cleaning" for years.

But here's what changed: she stopped chasing what looked impressive from the outside and started building something that made her feel whole on the inside. Legacy over fleeting. Longevity over quick wins. Community over individual glory.

If you're in a job that feels like it's not your "real career," or you can't see how your current skills could possibly transfer to something bigger, this conversation will shift your entire perspective.
