25: Traffic Fines and Your Career with Jean Humbrecht

Were you the kid who always knew what you wanted to do when you got older? If you had that clarity growing up, you are not guaranteed an easy career. Once you reach mid-career, you will still experience similar frustrations, achievements, and pivots as any other professional. 

John gets on the mic with Attorney and Business Owner Jean Humbrecht to talk about her career path, why she always wanted to be an attorney, and why she finds handling criminal and traffic defense cases some of the most rewarding experiences of her career. Additionally, Jean Humbrecht is the author of the book “More Than a Fine: The True Cost of Speeding in Virginia.” We talk about why we need to be more aware of how a speeding ticket can impact our lives and careers. Jean also shares some powerful advice about why we all need to be better at delegating and how to harness the power of your networking and grow it authentically.
