  • Summary

  • It’s one thing to decide to pursue your creative interests and passions, but it’s another when you start to question the sustainability of a particular creative path. Mel Czaykowsky had crafted an envious career Broadway Touring when she started to wonder if the path ahead was still the one she wanted to be on. Against the wishes of those around her, she made a reverse pivot—transitioning from a successful career on Broadway to kickstart a new path in HR.
