Starting Your Dreams Later In Life and Embracing the Detour

Jenee Darden speaking at Creative Mornings I know it's been a while since I've posted anything but that's because of my job. I'm working as a reporter covering Oakland and I host an arts segment on the radio where I get to interview amazing artists from around the Bay Area. Plus I'm publicizing my book  and building my speaking career!  You know what's funny? I thought this would all happen by the time I was 27-30.  Nope. That wasn't God's plan for me. I'm finally beginning to do the things I've wanted to do and I'm almost 40 years old. Some people reading this who are 40 will say 40 is still young. But some younger people reading may think 40 is nearly ancient. But I'm writing this post for those who like me, thought their career and personal dreams would come true much early in life.

I'm On BBC Radio 5 Live TONIGHT With Phil Williams

UPDATE: Listen to my interview here. 

The final episode of "The People v. O.J. Simspon" aired in the U.K. last night. During the show I live tweeted during PST and EST. I received so many supportive messages from across the pond that I decided to do some tweeting during episode 10 in the U.K. I received so many Tweets, including from Europeans in other countries. Somehow word got to BBC Radio 5 Live Host Phil Williams.

I'll be on his show tonight, around 11pm or 11:30pm U.K. time. This is my first, international broadcast interview. I'm excited! I spent time in London and Belfast 11 years ago, and had an amazing time.
 I'm happy my first international interview is in the U.K. Tune in and spread the word to your friends and family overseas!
