The Career Change Maker Podcast | Career Clarity & Career Pivots for Mid-Career Women
For high-achieving women rethinking their careers and navigating career change.
***Top 1.5% Global Career Change Podcast***
If you’ve worked hard to build a successful career but find yourself questioning whether it still fits, you’re not alone (and you’re not wrong for wanting more).
I’m Janine Esbrand, a former corporate lawyer turned Career Pivot Coach, and I created The Career Change Maker Podcast for high-achieving women who feel stuck, bored, or quietly misaligned in careers that no longer fit.
Through my own career pivots and my work coaching hundreds of women through intentional career change and career transitions, I’ve seen what it really takes to step off the default path and make thoughtful, strategic moves without starting over.
Each episode offers honest insights, practical guidance, and grounded encouragement to help you gain career clarity, trust yourself, and move forward with confidence into your next chapter.
This podcast is for you if you want permission to change, clarity on what’s next, and a clear way forward that honours your experience.
