“What Do I Really Want?” How I Redefined Success to Build My Brave Career E161

You are looking for a new job. You're qualified. You're experienced. You're doing everything right — and nothing is moving. Instead, you are spinning in applications, silence, and rejection. In this fifth episode of the What Now series, I walk you through what isn’t working and what you need to do instead of move past Ghost Jobs and into a new career phase.

Are you experienced, doing your job well & delivering results, and still waiting for the lay-off to smack down? You're not overreacting. You're paying attention. In this fourth episode of the What Now series, I walk you through how to stop the default response to overwork and how to reduce the fear and step back into control. I share how one client went from overworking, stressed to the max, and poorly leading her team due to lay-off fear to becoming a trusted leader, with personal and financial calm, who navigated the dreaded lay-off with inner power.

Did you get passed over in your career and you're ready to fix it so your work get the title and salary it deserves? In this third episode of the What Now series, I walk you through how to fix getting passed over and turn into into career leap. I share how one client went from a decade of being passed over to a role two levels up in less than four months at the same company, rooted in the Build Your Brave Career Framework. Specifically, I show you: Clarity — Have the uncomfortable conversation with your manager. Ask what led to the decision, then listen. If you hear "maybe in six months," "keep going, we believe in you," or a "well, actually" reframe — that's your clarity. Growth isn't coming here. Momentum — Process the disappointment and grief, but don't stop there. Take intentional action: shift your narrative, close a gap you actually want to close, or start exploring what's next. Accountability — Ask: Who have I been, and who do I want to become? Design clean, simple statements and become them in your daily choices. Getting passed over happens. Staying passed over is a choice. This episode is your sign to make a very different choice. Click here to start working together to solve your career confusion through 1:1 career coaching with me.

Are you exhausted — not just tired, not in need of a nap, just exhausted? In this second episode of the What Now series, I walk you through why career exhaustion happens and how to use the Build Your Brave Career Framework to move forward. I share client examples and concrete suggestions. Specifically, I show you: 1. Clarity — Start with honesty. What's exhausting me? Who's stealing my energy? What am I no longer willing to tolerate? 2. Momentum — Feel your way forward, not just execute. Establish clear boundaries as you feel your feelings, one brave shift at a time. 3. Accountability — Choose who you want to become and stop waiting for anyone else to become her. Career exhaustion is not permanent. It's a sign that you are ready to grow.
