This week's podcast episode was inspired by a question I received from one of the Career Success Circle members, April.
She asked: "How can I focus on improving my skills in my career, without going into debt?"
I thought this was an amazing question.
As a high achieving and ambitious woman, you may be at a point in your career where you're looking to pivot. Maybe you're feeling stuck and like you want to make a switch, or you want to expand on your skill set, but 1) you're not sure where to start and/or 2) you're not sure where the coins are going to come from to make it happen.
I've spoken to many women over the years who share these sentiments and I'm a firm believer in the fact that money should never hinder you from going after personal and professional development opportunities.
Listen in to episode 26 as I break down my four tips for learning new skills and increasing your knowledge base - without breaking the bank!
If you've got BIG plans for your career this year, this episode is especially for you!
