When I lost my dream job, I felt like my heart had been broken and no amount of “Manifest Your Dream Job” mantras were going to help. I needed to stop booty-calling my ex-career and put down the pint of ice cream. I got through the breakup, ummm career transition, with a little help from my friends.
You want to change careers and finally find work that is meaningful.
You are NOT alone. So many clients have come to me recently because they’ve reconnected with their values and priorities and they’ve come to realize that their current job, and maybe even their career, is ready for a shake-up.
Before you make any rash “holler- I’M OUTTA HERE! and moon your boss over Zoom”-type of decisions, there are a few questions you should ask yourself.
You decided to make a career change? Let’s all take a minute to acknowledge that that’s a huge decision. I don’t have to tell you that you’ve got a bit of work ahead of you, but it is worth it. I promise. I also don’t have to tell you to not just go stabbing at this thing in the dark. You just can’t go off all willy-nilly to change your career. You need a game plan.
