ChangeMakers podcast host Jeremy C. Park talks with Tammy Alvarez, CEO and founder of Career Winners Circle, professional keynote speaker, and author of "Escaping the Career Trap: Transform Your Apathy into Ambition and Never Hate Mondays Again," who shares some of her personal story and how she formed her spirited "Break All the Rules" approach. 

During her twenty-year corporate career, Tammy became renowned as a business transformation and turnaround expert on Wall Street. Her roles included Managing Director at AIG, First Senior Vice President at Bank Leumi USA, Chief Operating Officer at Genesis10, and Senior Vice President at Bank of America. Her "Break All the Rules" approach blends the decades of C-Suite experience with a pragmatic, results-based coaching style that helps business professionals create a big impact and love every Monday again. 

Her recent book, "Escaping The Career Trap: Transform Your Apathy into Ambition and Never Hate Mondays Again," is a self-leadership blueprint for high achievers who want to experience career fulfillment. 

During the interview, Tammy talks about the importance of not being afraid to fail because failure is part of success, why it is important to slow down before moving faster, especially with larger organizations, and how you can start to take control and become the CEO of your career. She talks about writing her book and lessons from it, lessons from working on Wall Street and how she and her partner Steve have adopted an ex-pat lifestyle, currently residing in Mexico City, and traveling all around the globe to hike and scuba dive.
