   Episode 48: Emily Aborn

   On our 48th episode we have Emily Aborn.  Emily was born and raised in New Hampshire and Maine.  She, her husband, her dog Clyde live in NH today.  She would consider her job to be her passion but when she pauses she enjoys curling up with a good book, last year she read 43 books. Emily has experience in several different fields such as working in restaurants, many chiropractic offices and even owning and running an organic mattress store.  Through all of her experiences we will see how most of them are linked together with a passion of hers, marketing.  All of her experiences have led her to where she is today being a content writer and owner/founder of She Built This.  You are for sure going to want to hear Emily’s story as she highlights her passions of content writing, cultivating community and entrepreneurship. EMILY ABORN Instagram https://www.instagram.com/emilyaborn/ Website emilyaborn.com Linkedin linkedin.com/in/emilyaborn She Built This Insta https://www.instagram.com/shebuiltthisgroup/ She Built This Website https://www.shebuiltthis.org/ PODCAST RECOMMENDATION Hey Listeners!  Some of you may have heard a big part of my story on how I started this podcast.  During my day job I get to listen to podcasts all day long.  The ones I really enjoy are ones that encompass someone’s story and their passion(s).  Since I am an avid podcast listener I wanted to start sharing podcasts and podcast episodes that I have enjoyed and that I think you will enjoy as well. One podcast that I am currently binging is The Dropout.  I had started listening to this pod when it first came out and I recently saw that it covers her trial which already happened.  Quick summary Elizabeth Holmes created Theranos, which was supposed to help blood testing be quick, cheaper and less painful. She was at one point deemed the youngest self-made female billionaire, but then she lost it.  I enjoy this podcast because of the in depth research and interviews that this podcast walks us through as it unpacks this story.  If you are interested in a gripping story of money, romance, tragedy and deception I highly recommend putting this in your podcast queue. Podcast Link: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-dropout/id1449500734 QUOTES “When someone says what do you really want to be doing? It gets hard and it gets scary because when you bump up against what you really what I think that when you are like can I even do this? Is this even really a thing?” “Let yourself experiment and fail.” “Every step of the journey is part of the bigger picture.” RESOURCES Unfollow Your Passion: How to Create a Life that Matters to You By Terri Trespicio Take time to get to know yourself Becoming Journal by Michelle Obama Best piece of advice can come from connecting/networking with other people and being open to meeting others Claim the Stage: A Podcast About Public Speaking and Speaking Up with Angela Lussier SPONSOR AD This week in our sponsor spot is our guest’s new cafe, Cafe Calida.  Cafe Calida has been open for a solid two weeks!  Anton Adkins from our last episode and his wife Liset are the proud owners.  Happy Opening Month :)  They are located at 3455 W North ST in Chicago’s Humboldt Park neighborhood.  Their hours of operation are Monday to Friday 7am-2pm and Saturday-Sunday 8am-3pm.  On their menu are a variety of options from a classic drip or cafe con leche to a fancy matcha latte.  Or if they are not in need of caffeine they also have tea and hot chocolate options.  Additionally they source vegan donuts so you can have a tasty treat with your drink.  If you are in the Chicago area go check out Cafe Calida.
