AMAZON MOMENT NOT SHOWING SHIFTS TV

J: I will never forget being sent to help with the 2000 election recount in Palm Beach and running between courthouses and booking politicians and the insanity of the ‘hanging chad’.Enjoy the moment and keep up with your contacts and networks…they are invaluable! In retrospect, I would tell my younger self to slow down and don’t be in such a hurry to get to the next stage. I left to go to journalism school because it seemed like good training to have.

The hours were brutal in morning television but it was such a fantastic job and an exciting time to be in the TV news world. I had to be at work at 5 AM to greet all the guests in the Green Room.

Jenny: I worked as a booking assistant at Good Morning America.

Kassatex: What was your first job out of college, and if you could say one thing to that Jenny, what would you tell her?.

At that same time, my co-founder Gina Hadley and I were talking about all the women we knew leaving full-time jobs and trying to make a career transition, including ourselves, and what tool would be useful to help us find flexible jobs.

Jenny: In 2013, I read a New York Times Magazine story about how little changed for women in the workforce.

Kassatex: Was there an “a-ha” moment when you decided to launch The Second Shift?.

This month, we venture into podcast territory and learn a bit how Jenny spends her spare time feeding her brain with fiction and current events. We asked Jenny to let us in on her fall choices for our latest Bedside Book Club series. Much like her tenacity to create insightful conversations, politically savvy friendship bracelets, and a penchant for Game of Thrones, Jenny is a knowledgeable adviser and mentor to her entire company and its community as well as a mother to two incredibly adorable boys. But the most profound outcome since its inception in 2013, is the community of women it has created, that are available to support each other up any ladder in life, and help companies thrive along the way. The Second Shift connects companies with the best on-demand consultants that excel in marketing, finance, human resources, creative and business services to companies of all sizes. As one of the founders of The Second Shift, a marketplace born from the idea that a woman’s career can continue after pausing for personal, family, and lifestyle reasons she is the brainchild behind this goal-oriented company that is giving women the confidence in taking a second chance at a profession. Jenny Galluzzo has a soft spot for arts and crafts.
