In episode 5 of the Careers Evolve Podcast, I interviewed Dr. Kristilynn Turney. We met a few years ago at a conference in Kentucky. She inquired about my consulting services for the school district she was working with at the time. I worked with them for about two years. Fast forward to now and she is an entrepreneur who provides consulting services.
