In this episode, I’m joined by Christine Coulson, a sobriety and wellbeing coach who helps professionals improve their relationship with alcohol and overall wellbeing. Christine first joined us in Episode 67, where we explored the impact of alcohol on career success.

Today, Christine returns to share her experience of managing a parallel career, balancing her role as a part-time NHS radiographer with her coaching practice. We discuss:

• What it means to have a parallel career.
• Practical tips for balancing two professional roles.
• The benefits, challenges, and boundaries that come with this arrangement.
• How this setup can complement personal and professional growth.

Christine also shares how her dual roles influence her identity and skillset, and I’ll reflect on my own experience of working a parallel career.

Key Topics Covered:

1. What is a Parallel Career?
   • Parallel careers involve committing to two professional roles simultaneously, more than a casual side hustle, allowing skill-building and meaningful contribution in both areas.
2. Christine’s Journey:
   • Transitioning from finance to radiography at 32.
   • Combining her NHS role with sobriety coaching after her personal journey with alcohol.
3. Benefits of a Parallel Career:
   • Financial stability through a steady role.
   • Personal growth and skill enhancement.
   • Variety and the ability to pursue passion projects.
4. Challenges and Boundaries:
   • Maintaining professional commitments in both roles.
   • Declaring interests and ensuring transparency with employers and professional bodies.
   • Effectively managing time, energy, and priorities.
5. Practical Tips:
   • Start small—explore new interests alongside your current role.
   • Use tools like colour-coded calendars to balance commitments.
   • Be honest with yourself and adjust as needed.
   • Take action to test ideas and gather feedback.
