    Sep 25 2024

    Shelley Paxton is a 26-year advertising and marketing veteran whose legacy is imprinted on iconic global brands like McDonald’s, Visa, and Harley-Davidson. At the pinnacle of her career, as Chief Marketing Officer of Harley-Davidson, she was shocked to find herself feeling success-empty instead of success-full.

    Now, as Chief Soul Officer, she works with leaders and teams to advocate for redefining success in ways that celebrate humanity, well-being, and soul. Her influential work is an empowering antidote to corporate burnout, attrition, and disengagement. It’s gained recognition on platforms like NBC, CBS, Forbes, Inc., and Thrive Global, making her a respected thought leader, advisor, and sought-after keynote speaker who’s been called “the next Brené Brown” by Chip Conley, NY Times Bestselling Author, Former Airbnb Exec, and Founder of Modern Elder Academy. Her energizing and actionable keynotes create undeniable ROI (Ripples of Impact) in lives, businesses, and culture.


    In this episode, Nada sits down with Shelley to talk about her soul journey and why she walked away from a high-powered and glamorous career in marketing.

Through sharing advice and intimate stories, she invites us to search for what our soul requires and to redefine what a full middle third can look like.
