What NOT To Do With Your Career Change
Friday Oct 28, 2022
Friday Oct 28, 2022
After over 25 years of being in my corporate career, I was unhappy. I was the definition of “stuck.” I had a career I thought I loved and was great at, but it just wasn’t enough.
And it showed, I was burnt out, exhausted and uninspired by my work.
The challenge was that at this stage of my life, I didn’t have the foggiest as to what else I could do without feeling like I was completely starting over.
Nothing I thought of offered me a solution that made sense. I had already worked so hard that I didn’t want to make a mistake, fail and lose everything. I felt like I was out of options.
So what did I do?

How To Own Your Career Origin Story
Friday Oct 14, 2022
Friday Oct 14, 2022
When you've accrued many years of skills, experience and accolades, it can be difficult to succinctly articulate why you're an ideal candidate for a role.
It can become even more daunting when trying to demonstrate how your skillset can be applied to a role or industry you've never worked in before, when you want to transition your career.
And if you've ever thought "there's no way that my working in X can be ever be used to have a career in Y", then you're wrong!
In either of these scenarios it is possible, you just need to be clear on your career origin story.

Friday Sep 16, 2022
Friday Sep 16, 2022
You're miserable, uninspired and frustrated. You know you have to make a shift. But much as you'd love to quit, you're simply not financially ready.
