Episode description

Most careers follow a straight path. Kathy Macdonald’s didn’t.

She started as a fitness instructor, then became a police officer, then a cybercrime expert and keynote speaker. At every turn, she faced setbacks—like failing the police fitness test twice—but kept pushing forward.

We talk about reinvention, resilience, and how small decisions lead to unexpected careers. Kathy shares how policing shaped her, why public speaking became her next challenge, and why most people hesitate before taking life-changing opportunities.

This conversation was about adapting, pushing through failure, and recognizing the moments that shape us.
