Life After Corporate · 2026-04-14 · 40 min
What happens when you walk away from a powerful corporate brand… and realize you have to become one yourself? If you've ever felt the pull between security and purpose - this conversation will hit deeper than you expect. In this episode of Life After Corporate, Deb sits down with Maribel Lara, former marketing leader alongside Gary Vaynerchuk turned founder of Beget Love Consulting, to unpack what it really looks like to start over - with zero revenue, no safety net, and a whole new identity to build. They dive into the unfiltered realities of leaving corporate, from confidence gaps and visibility fears to rebuilding your network and learning how to attract clients on your own terms. This isn't theory - it's the emotional, strategic, and deeply human side of entrepreneurship that most people never talk about. So the real question is… are you ready to stop borrowing credibility - and finally build your own?
