- Courage to bet on herself
Beki shares great stories and lessons that made her the leader she is. As she reflects on her past she shares time and time again how she had the courage to bet on herself and follow her own path. I’m learning not only the lessons she articulates so clearly but also the more subtle messages of how to live life on our own terms.

Apple Podcasts5*MacFUnited States2 years ago - Support Navigating Your Career and Life
I recently found this podcast and listened to the “Farm Girl Goes to Yale” episode. Beki Fraser has a confident and competent way of telling her story to help you navigate whatever change you are facing in your career or life. I felt like I was sitting next to Beki as she was telling me her story and I had some great takeaways after listening to this episode. I look forward to more of the “Short Story Long” podcast and Beki’s powerful and transformative stories.
