Adventures In Venueland

Pass through the Gateway Arch and explore the Show Me State with us as we chat with our friend Cindy Underwood-Oleshak, based in St. Louis, Missouri. Cindy’s career has taken her to all sides of the live events industry – from 13 years on the venue side at Scottrade Center (now Enterprise Center), to freelance marketing and publicity for Sesame Street Live, The Wiggles, Dreamworks, the Vancouver Olympics, music festivals, and so many more – she has a wealth of experience and perspective. Hear about her decisions to change career paths, work for herself, and some of the challenges and rewards that come along with those choices. We discuss the importance of taking a step back and evaluating your career and life priorities, and how pausing can help you not only explore new opportunities, but to strengthen your current path. She emphasizes the importance of relationship-building, which was critical to her freelance work with various tours. As Cindy continues to write new chapters, her outlook offers a refreshing take on working in an industry where it’s easy to get lost in the grind. Enjoy this fun, inspiriting episode which is chock full of career advice, tips for freelancers, and fun stories.
