(Entrepreneur) — Until three years ago, Janet Hill Talbert worked as a vice president and executive editor at a major New York publishing house. It was challenging work, and Talbert enjoyed nurturing her writers, including many bestselling authors. But the stress of the job took its toll, and she started making jewelry as a way to unwind after hectic days. “I needed to make something that was my own,” Talbert says, “since I spent my days helping authors with their creative endeavors.” At 45, after more than two decades working her way up from editorial assistant to top editor at the Doubleday/Broadway Publishing Group, Talbert walked away from her high-powered career. She is now a full-time jewelry designer and entrepreneur at her own company, On This Rock.
