Meet Traci

 

As one of the founding team members of HGTV: Home & Garden Television, Traci Schubert Barrett enjoyed the exciting and amazing ride of taking an idea and turning it into a billion-dollar media empire, but after over two decades in the television industry, with family and plenty of life ahead, success was no longer the beacon it once was.

What if there is more to our vocational journey than just a pursuit of success?

Traci took a risk and walked away from the comfort of corporate life to embark on a soul-searching journey – one that would answer her questions, validate her instincts, and change her life forever.

Traci is a successful business owner, innovative entrepreneur, bestselling author, international speaker, and executive coach. She has decades of experience in corporate America, has been part of a billion-dollar start-up, managed all-size teams, owns a seven-figure business, and is a working parent, juggling it all.

Traci knows what it is like to walk away at the top of your game to try a new adventure. As Founder & President of Navigate the Journey, she has walked alongside leaders and entrepreneurs to guide them on a path to discovering who they are, what they want out of their lives and businesses, and how to realize their full potential.
