Stories of Change: Helping You Navigate What's Next
Life doesn't come with a roadmap.
On Stories of Change, Judy Oskam talks with entrepreneurs, leaders, artists, educators and students about moments that change the direction of their lives. We talk about the decisions they make, the challenges they face, and what they learn along the way.
Every conversation is an opportunity to learn from someone who's been there. Whether you're navigating a career transition, building something new, or simply wondering what's next, you'll hear personal stories and practical lessons you can apply to your own life.
Every episode helps you:
• Recognize opportunities and thoughtful decisions.
• Learn from the experiences—and mistakes—of others.
• Build the confidence to keep moving forward through uncertainty.
• Apply practical lessons to your own life, career, and relationships.
Because every story has something to teach us.

Show Notes
Have you ever wanted to buy a van, hit the road and travel the United States? Well, that's just what YoungWa decided to do. She moved to Austin from Seattle two years ago. YoungWa grew tired of corporate life and decided to make a life change. Using her savings, she bought a Storyteller Overland van and started making plans.
In late October 2020, YoungWa and her dog, Kimchi, started out on their new RV adventure. Kimchi is the cutest Australian Cattle Dog you've ever seen. You can find him on Instagram and YouTube. Check out YW & K-Dawg
I met YoungWa at an Austin Podcasters meetup in January 2020. She is the creator and host of A & E with YoungWa, an unniche podcast. Her Anything & Everything podcast 'explores inspirational stories, love and relationships, vulnerabilities, health, science, politics, conspiracy theories, and anything else that impacts society.'
You can find YoungWa's podcast on YouTube and all the podcast streaming platforms.
