# 180: How Other Lawyers Are Getting Career Clarity And Making Life Changing Transitions
In today’s episode of the ‘Career Change Maker’ podcast, I am talking about how other lawyers are getting career clarity and making life-changing transitions.
The reason I want to talk about the big career transitions that the lawyers are getting is that you can go from one role to another or one industry to another, you can absolutely do it. You can lean into your transferable skills it is totally possible.
Episode Highlights
· 03:50 - Rather than having to rely on just the traditional methods of going on job boards or speaking to recruiters, we're helping you to take a more proactive approach to make the type of move that you want to make.
· 05:40 - The coaching is there to help you to overcome the mindset hurdles that are going to come up. It will help you to understand what you're learning, and to feel rooted in the decision that you made to go on this career change journey.
· 10:00 – One of my clients, Jen, who is a lawyer, was on maternity leave, she wanted to leave law completely and thought to make a career move. During the program, she realized that she didn't want to leave law completely, but needed to change her environment, and change the type of clients that she was working with.
· 12:00 - Liz came into the program, and she was at a place where she had her legal career for over 10 years. Then she decided that she wanted to do things slightly differently. Once she went through the program, she was able to identify what her strengths were.
What you will learn:
- I have developed this career transition process, through my coaching experience, and through guiding lots of clients via a process. The program is broken up into four phases. It is designed to be very much a hands-on program one where you have to come in, you have to do the work to get the results. They start off with the define phase, alignment phase, and finally attract the right opportunities phase. So, we have the program broken down as the community, the coaching, and the curriculum.
- In my program, they have a community of like-minded people who are at the same phase as you, who are also not sure that this is what they want to do, or who are unsure about what else they will do. So you're able to connect with other people going through the same process and it can really support you. By the end of the program, people often end up as friends and as colleagues and are able to refer each other for opportunities.
- I shared a few snippets and feedback from some of my clients who went through the program as it's always good to hear the insights from people who have been through it and to share a little bit more. So if you want to see more, then let me know, reach out to me and I will direct you to some more case study interviews with people from different backgrounds so you can see whether or not it sounds like it's a good fit for you.
