For Dr. Colleen Mullen, chaos had been a constant struggle throughout her life. However, when she fully embraced chaos, she went from chaos to clarity.
At age 30, with a broken marriage and broken dreams, Colleen found herself in a chaotic situation where enough was enough. She
had been building her career following her father’s dreams and was miserable.
A lot has happened since. Now she uses chaos theory to help people navigate some of the chaos that they feel they are
experiencing. She’s fascinating and committed to inspiring, motivating, and empowering others.
She has quite a journey full of how she arrived to where she is at today through taking bold action and overcoming self-doubt.
This is her story.
In this episode
- Why it’s never too late to follow your true calling
- The heartache of leaving everything you know
- How Colleen went from an office assistant to a therapist
