ReRun: Reasons You Are Convincing Yourself You Need To Stay In A Role You No Longer Enjoy
In this episode:
3 years ago I made the change from corporate lawyer to career change coach, providing career transition coaching for women. Once I made the switch I couldn’t help but wonder “what took me so long, and why?”. In this episode of the Career Change Maker podcast I explain the top three reasons we stop ourselves from looking for a better career, and how to overcome them to make your career change.
Summary:
1. Is it possible to switch careers? Doubt is a big hurdle when trying to transition careers, particularly surrounding salary and skills. Researching the career you are interested in and gathering data will help you gain the confidence to make a mindful career change.
2. Where to begin? Considering changing career is confusing, you are leaving what you know and entering a whole new world, so understandably it is hard to decide where to transition to. I explain some advice on where to start when looking for better career opportunities.
3. Recognising the benefits of working in a role you are passionate about. When your role aligns with your passions and values, you will perform so much more effectively, and feel the benefits both professionally and personally.
Episode Notes:
As an award-winning certified executive and career coach, TEDx speaker, podcast host and former lawyer, I have seen way too many female professionals under selling themselves and settling for less in their careers. I am committed to equipping high achieving women with the tools and support to create careers that are both meaningful and impactful.
