In this episode, I talk about the biggest thing that really holds people back from going ahead and pursuing a career change. I often hear people say that they can't find another role or now is not a good time to look with what is going on right now with Covid-19.
In my experience coaching lots of high achieving women, I have noticed that that people tend to stay stuck where they are and don't move forward because they are scared of making the wrong decision.
What you will learn in this episode:

  • How to challenge yourself if it's really not a good time or not
  • Why you need to focus more time and energy on gathering the correct data so that you can make an informed decision about your next career decision
  • How to change your perception of fear when looking for a career change
  • Find the courage to step out of your comfort zone

The Career Change Maker Podcast - #49 - Why You Need A Mentor And How To Find One with Amanda Adeola
play

12/05/18 • 25 min

Having a mentor can be an absolute gamechanger, especially for working moms who are figuring out how to make their career work post motherhood. On this episode, Amanda Adeola, family lawyer and mumm of two, joins us as an advocate for mentorship.

As mentorship played a role in Amanda’s career from an early age, she talks through the benefits of being on either side of a mentor relationship, and provides guidance on how to kickstart that kind of relationship in your own life. She reminds us that there is always someone who has come before us, and that there is no value or need in going it alone. She also shares how her work in family law shifted slightly to better fit her new life as a mum, and some words of advice on surviving the transition.

The Career Change Maker Podcast - # 201: 3 Ways To Finish The Year Strong

# 201: 3 Ways To Finish The Year Strong

The Career Change Maker Podcast

play

12/15/22 • 18 min

It's the end of the year and a time when many people start thinking about and planning for the new year.

Planning and new year's resolutions are great... but are often not enough to actually lead to change. Too often people try and make huge dramatic shifts without setting themselves up for success.

What You Will Learn:

  1. Audit
  2. Goal or Intention Setting
  3. Setting Yourself Up For Success

Audit - We move through life so quickly, I literally feel like the year has gone by in a flash. When you are focused on doing and achieving, it is so easy to lose track of all that has happened.

Now is the perfect time to be doing an audit around your life and your career. What went well this year? What didn't go well this year and why? When you have identified those, you can move onto step number 2.

Don't skip this step, when I did my audit, I realised that we had lots of wins on the scoreboard that I hadn't remembered. Clients served, contracts won, a live event, podcast growth etc.

Goal or Intention Setting - What do you want to achieve or create in the next year? You can set those high-level goals but be mindful to make them realistic. Taking a holistic approach is a good idea, so that it is not all about work but other wellness goals too. Health, fitness, sleep... because if you are not taking care of those things, it's harder to achieve in the other areas.

Setting Yourself Up For Success - Clarify the commitment, resources and support required to make the goals you set in number 2 a reality. If one of your goals is to work out a few times a week, what are you going to put in place to make that happen? Will you hire a personal trainer or get a gym buddy?

If your goal is to get promoted by the end of Q1, will you be hiring a coach or finding a mentor to support you on your growth trajectory? The reason many people set new year's resolutions that fail before the end of February is that they don't focus enough on the day-to-day tasks that need to be done for the bigger goal to actually be met.

If you want help with this process - book a Career UpLevel Intensive. We will work together to map out your career advancement plan for 2023. You tell me what you want to achieve and I will help you come up with a bespoke strategy that is aligned to you and your preferences.

Beyond the yearly plan start thinking about your quarterly goals. What do you want to achieve in Q1 of the year?
