We’ve all had diverse lives before we started our entrepreneurial journey. I worked in a corporate environment for years before I decided to cut the cord and go out on my own. Perhaps you had a corporate career or several part-time jobs that just didn’t interest you.

Over the years you learn what you like, what you dislike, and what people are willing to pay for. What you may not have realized is that all these experiences can lead you to your ideal lifestyle business, and no one exemplifies this more than Karen Hough.

Karen got her start as an actress at 5 years of age. By the time she was 14 years old she was working as a professional and even went to Yale for acting. It was at Yale that she developed her love for improv.

Now, you’ve all heard me talk about finding your sweet spot and turning it into a business and boy, did Karen nail this one on the head. She took her love of improv and found a way to apply it to a corporate environment to help better businesses. Not only has she turned this into an incredibly popular business model and written a book about it, but she has just release her second best selling book, Be the Best Bad Presenter Ever.

I know what you’re thinking; how the heck do you get a bunch of stereotypical uptight corporate people out of their shell and willing to get their improv-on?
