Episode description

In this episode, I share my journey of landing my first "real" job and navigating the challenges of working as a woman in the 1970s South. From a nerve-racking typewriter test to becoming a successful TV ad buyer for the Coca Cola account, I recount the obstacles I faced, including an awkward lunch meeting and a difficult medical emergency. With determination and resilience, I proved myself in a male-dominated industry and even gained the respect of my intimidating bosses.

Now That You Ask is a podcast that looks at topics that range from death to desire, and from wondrous to downright whacky. Join host, Akasha Halsey as she takes listeners on a journey through her writing and experience with life’s most persistent questions.
