Hi, nice to meet you - I’m Maricella 👋🏽

I’m a writer, podcaster, public speaker and consultant who is going through a little bit of an identity crisis. 

Oh, I’m also a loud introvert.

Yes, I need space to recharge and yes, I get overwhelmed by lots of people. But, I also love to share my thoughts — on my podcast, here, anywhere people will give me a mic.

I believe in using our voice to make the world better, in whatever way we can.

My podcast: Sh*t I Just Quit My Job

For more than a decade I played different roles at one of the largest communities for professional women, culminating with a year full of ups and downs as the company’s CEO. My job became the central part of my identity. 

Until the moment I decided to step away. 

Each week, we'll dig into real stories of people who've taken the plunge into uncertainty and come out on the other side. We'll chat about their fears, the guts it took, and the lessons they've learned.

Oh, and I'll be sharing my own journey too, post my "identity-defining" job, with all the ups, downs, and revelations. No fancy words, just honest talk about change, resilience, and finding that elusive fulfillment.

So, join me on this adventure. "Sh*t I Just Quit My Job" is your friendly guide to embracing the chaos, navigating the messy middle, and finding your own extraordinary path. Subscribe now and let's take that leap together!

What do you want to be when you grow up? At 40, I'm still trying to figure it out. This is a journey of self-reflection and navigating the "messy middle" in between who you were and who you want to become.
