In this podcast episode, she and Tara dive into the 3 Rs of career: risk, rejection and reward. Sade started with an early opportunity at Kohl's as a Business Analyst. After business school at NYU, a stint at Groupon, a Senior Brand Manager role at Starbucks, Sade is now a Global Product Marketer at Peloton. With each career move, Sade has honed her skills and evolved as a leader. 

Sade also shares her techniques for handling rejection and the rewards that come from going where you're valued, (hint: it involves promotion.) Respecting her mental health has also been a large component in Sade's career path. She shares about her "last straw" and when she realized it was time for her to take a break and set some boundaries during her time at Starbucks. 

If you're climbing the corporate ladder, or looking to make moves in Q1 of 2022 - Sade's encore release is for you!
