Taryn Pulliam, Vice President of Strategic Partnerships at Gadellnet Consulting Services, leads a team that helps organizations align technology with their business goals, from cybersecurity and cloud to AI consulting. But this conversation reaches far beyond IT. Taryn shares the unlikely path that took her from cosmetology school to becoming a powerhouse sales leader in a male dominated industry. She and Cynthia dig into what it really takes to set ambitious goals and do the work to reach them, including the personal sacrifices along the way.
This episode is for any woman with a goal bigger than her current circumstances and the nagging question of whether she has what it takes to reach it. Taryn doesn’t hand out tidy answers. She hands you her actual story, the unlikely turns, the moments she had to choose between comfort and growth, and she lets you draw the line to your own life. You’ll come away understanding what really separates the people who get there from the people who only talk about it, and why the price is steeper and more worth it than you think. By the end, the goal you’ve been circling might start to feel less like a someday and more like a decision.
