Chasing Common Ground: Lifestyle Conversations with Chris Liddle
Episode 157 - Donna Murray
Donna Murray of @thecoasthr , http://www.thecoasthr.com/ and I go back to 2010.
When I graduated high school, I wasn't 100% sure of what I wanted to do. I had initially planned to move to Vancouver for Film School but the expense and the move was intimidating so I wanted more time to figure things out. I went and applied for jobs in my nearby town. One of them was Sport Check.
When I went for the interview, Donna was the recruiter helping with hiring for a brand new store. Since then, I moved to Edmonton to take General Studies at Grant Macewan University and transferred to a downtown store to work at the same time. My career evolved, I left retail to go into the warehouse, and I hadn't decided what I wanted to commit to yet with University.
I just had broad collection of courses under my belt. I accumulated a 5 year career in the stainless steel industry which led to a point in my life where I made the "all-in" leap into the fitness industry and here we are at the end of in 2020 and Donna Murray and I have stayed connected this whole time.
She has branched off to do her own exciting things and learned a lot along the way. She is very wise when it comes to reading people and she's always been someone I could count on for advice on progressing my career.
I wanted to get her on the show because if you are looking for a job right now, you could use her help. If you are looking for quality people for your business, she will probably know exactly where they are.
This podcast is intended to help my community on all levels, not just with fitness and wellness but with keeping a roof over your head.
I think it's really cool how I've stayed connected with people from so far back. Be sure to check this one out!
