Episode #37 - Cultivating Loyalty as a Leader and Being Loyal to Yourself with Lee Caraher

Be who you want to be, know what you want to contribute to the world, know your non-negotiables, define what you want out of your work, understand your goals and vision, and always prioritize what matters to you. These are the critical ingredients shared today by our guest, Lee Caraher, CEO of Double Forte. Paying attention to these things took Lee from a degree in medieval history to running a successful company, allowing her to split her time between New York, San Francisco, and Eau Claire. Today, Lee is sharing how she's built a company of loyal employees, what leaders need to know to do the same, AND what women can do to create a career they love.

In this episode of the Midlife Career Rebel Podcast, you'll discover...

  • Lee's journey to building her successful company Double-Forte
  • How leaders can foster loyalty in their team and employees
  • Why it's essential as a leader and employee to be first loyal to yourself
  • How you can ensure you're respected and valued in the workplace
  • What women and women of color can do to build and foster greater loyalty

Episode #38 - Client Spotlight: How Dr. Jae Sevelius Went From Stuck & Comfortable to Making an Empowered Career Move

We’ve been raised to follow prescribed ideas of our career paths. Go to a good school, get your degree, get in with a great organization, climb that ladder to its highest heights and then retire. But like so many who follow that path, they often abandon any ideas of doing worth that expands their mind, fuels their passion, positions their authority, aligns with their life and values, and brings genuine fulfillment and happiness. Today on the podcast, my client Dr. Jae Sevelius shares how they took control of their career and made an empowered career move.

In this episode of the Midlife Career Rebel Podcast, you'll discover...

  • Why trying to find “career distractions” won’t get you career fulfillment.
  • Why repeating your old success formula won’t get you what you want.
  • How the self-discovery process opened Jae up to greater opportunities.
  • How they found an aligned position that valued all they had to offer.
  • How the Career Rebel Academy gave them the tools and courage to say yes when the universe opened doors for them.
  • Why having a coach is so critical to growing and developing in your career.
  • That leveling up requires you to move out of your comfort zone.
  • Advice for those considering the Career Rebel Academy. Featured On the Show: About Our Guest: Jae Sevelius, PhD (they/them), is a Clinical Psychologist and lifelong academic, currently transitioning from Professor of Medicine at the University of California, San Francisco to Professor of Medical Psychology (in Psychiatry) at Columbia University.
