Embrace the Squiggle: Change happens. Growth is a choice.
Embrace the Squiggle is the podcast about navigating change in work, identity, leadership, and life with intention. Because change happens. Growth is a choice.
This show explores the honest, human stories behind reinvention. From career pivots and leadership shifts to identity crises, mindset shifts, and unexpected detours, each episode dives into what it really looks like to move through uncertainty instead of waiting for clarity.
Our guests share candid stories of obstacles, failures, breakthroughs, and hard-earned lessons. Not because they had it all figured out but because they chose growth in the middle of the mess.
Each week, Colleen DelVecchio and Ashleigh Beadle unpack the pivots, pauses, leaps of faith, and “what am I even doing?” moments that shape a non-linear life. This isn’t about chasing a straight line. It’s about building the mindset and courage to evolve on purpose.
