Episode 47: Achieving Complete Clarity in Your Career

---

---

Hey Career Girl Nation!

After a quick Holiday break, we are back with the first episode of 2019. My initial thought was to tackle goal setting and developing your career action plan for the year, but then I realized two things:

1) We’ve done that already (check out episode 22 from 2017), and

2) At the foundation of any career strategy is…clarity.

That said, we’re diving into getting completely, crystal clear on what you want to be doing in your career.

Listen in as I break down my 3 steps to clarity:

• Knowing your what, why and how

• Understanding your point

• Staying in alignment

Episode 46: Behind the Scenes of My Biggest Client Wins of 2018 and the Lessons You Can Learn from Them

---

---

Hey Career Girl Nation!

If you’re like me, these last few weeks of 2018 are your favorite time of the year.

Not because of the food, presents, or time off from work, but because it’s the time when it’s perfectly normal - expected even - for you to turn inward and reflect on the past 12 months.

You’re most likely asking yourself questions like: Did I accomplish all of my goals this year? What worked well for me? What didn’t? How do I want things to change next year?

Yes, these are the types of introspective questions I live for.

Here’s the thing: If you’re not happy with your answers to these questions, or you feel like you weren’t able to reach all of your goals, or you haven’t been able to reach your full potential - this episode is for you.

Listen in as I go behind the scenes of some of my client’s biggest wins for 2018 (including one client who was able to land an impactful role that came with a $90,000 raise) and share the proven six step process you need to follow in order to achieve huge career wins for yourself next year!

If you’re ready to make next year, your best year - listen in!

Episode 45: How to Honor Your Pace and STOP "Should-ing" All Over Yourself

---

---

Hey Career Girl Nation!

This episode is on a topic that’s very near and dear to my heart. I’m diving into how to “honor your pace” or simply put: How to stop obsessing over self-imposed timelines when it comes to your career and life.

There’s a post on my Instagram account about my struggle with honoring my pace that really resonates with the people that read it. It seems like more than just a few people can relate to feeling like they need to accomplish this or that by the time they’re X years old.

As a career coach, I speak to women from various walks of life in different spaces in their career and no matter how different each of their career stories are, the one constant is the fact that they all feel they aren’t progressing through their career as quickly as they feel they “should”.

In this episode, I’m going to break down the pitfalls of living in your “shoulds” and give you practical ways you can work toward honoring the pace things are unfolding in your own life.

Episode 44: How to Know When It's Time to Leave a Workspace You've Outgrown

---

---

Hey Career Girl Nation!

As a HR leader and career strategist, I’ve spoken to thousands of women over the past decade at various stages in their career. While each woman’s experience is unique, I’ve been able to categorize the challenges women face in their professional journeys into a few main themes.

One theme that comes up a lot in my work is overcoming the challenge of leaving a job/career/company that no longer serves you. In fact, of the 100 women who’ve applied to have a free career exploration call with me since February of this year, an overwhelming majority of applicants list some variation of this as a main career challenge they’re facing: “Exiting a work space I’ve outgrown”.

With all the challenges women - especially Black women - face in their careers, it’s no surprise they’re having trouble making the leap to bigger and better opportunities at work.

In this episode, I’m discussing 1) how to know you’ve outgrown your current work space, 2) why it’s hard for you to walk away from that space even when you know you should and 3) what steps you can take once you’re finally ready to move on to the next phase in your career.

If you’re on the fence about staying or leaving your current work situation, this episode is just for you!
