Finding Purpose Through Employment A Conversation with Tom Lenoble EP 104
In this inspiring episode, Tom Lenoble, host of the Opening Pathways podcast, sits down with Beverly Williams, employment attorney, author of Your GPS to Employment Success, and founder of Your Employment Matters, and Parthenon Enterprises, Inc. to talk about the winding roads of career, purpose, and perseverance. Beverly shares her deeply personal journey from employment law to empowering job seekers and future leaders through her books, speeches, training programs, and mentorship.
Key Takeaways:
Inspired by the Great Recession: Beverly felt called to help others after witnessing widespread unemployment in 2008–09. Her varied career in law, HR, and corporate leadership gave her the tools to assist others.
Writing the Book Was a Calling: A moment of clarity led her to start writing Your GPS to Employment Success to help people navigate employment challenges.
The Power of Perspective: Beverly emphasizes the emotional toll of job loss and the societal pressure on people, especially men, to be providers. Her empathy is rooted in her father’s example and her passion for service.
Turning Point Moment: Clerking for the Chief Justice of her state’s highest court was a major milestone that affirmed her path, though she initially resisted applying for the role.
Mental Health Matters: Beverly openly shares her grief over a friend’s suicide and stresses the importance of emotional resilience when searching for employment.
Her Greatest Pride: The influence she’s had on young people, mentoring, guiding, and affirming their worth stands out as her proudest contribution.
Tough Love and Straight Talk: She’s a truth-teller who believes in telling people what they need to hear, not just what they want to hear.
Next Big Thing: Beverly is building a new media platform that merges employment insight with storytelling, and she’s already planning her next book based on her Your Employment Matters podcast interviews.
A Hopeful Vision: She believes in the power of learning, the value of trade skills as much as college degrees, and the importance of people knowing their worth—regardless of title or background.
Beverly is passionate about helping people discover their best career path. She wants to educate and empower workers at any stage of their career about ways they can be proactive and engaged and achieve success on their employment journey.
