Uncorking Life's Pleasures: Julie Shen on Wine, Work, and Wisdom

You Only Go Once (Y.O.G.O.)

We're excited to bring you an extraordinary conversation with Julie Shen, a strategic ally for purpose-driven business founders and the mind behind advisory and consultancy practice, Springstead. Julie's journey took her from the corporate world to the vibrant and dynamic sphere of female-led startups, and she's spilling the secrets of her transition, as well as sharing her passion for her clients' products and services.
While Julie's work might be serious, her life certainly isn't all work and no play. She's a bona fide travel enthusiast with a love for living like a local, specifically when it comes to the wine regions of Europe. Julie and her husband's adventures through the vineyards of France and Italy have led them to some incredible finds. If you've ever wanted to know how to taste wine without the morning-after regret or the secret to pairing that perfect red, Julie's insights are not to be missed.
However, life isn't just about work and travel, it's about embracing the stage we're in and the age we've reached. Julie's perspective on reaching the mid-thirties phase of life is refreshing and empowering. We dig deep into the concept of 'shoulding', life in the present, and the evolving paradigm of family planning. We also touch on the generational disparities between immigrant parents and their progeny, with Julie offering her wisdom on navigating these differences with grace. Enjoy the intriguing conversation with Julie Shen, where she shares her journey, passions, and wisdom with us.
