How to Know It’s Time to Change Careers (Even If Everything Looks Fine)
Have you done everything you were told to do—gotten good grades, earned promotions, and achieved a "corner office [and] multiple six figures"—yet still feel empty and "not online"?
In this essential episode, the host welcomes the incredible career change coach, Vilma Usaite, who specializes in working with women. Vilma guides listeners through the hard truth that a career pivot is not just changing a job title; it’s a multi-dimensional, multi-layer identity change.
In this holistic coaching session, you will discover:
• The Body Keeps Score: Learn the physical signs that your body is communicating misalignment, including persistent coughing, chronic fatigue, nervous system dysregulation, indigestion, or repeating headaches. These are often "mystery symptoms" that disappear on weekends or holidays.
• The Mind Trap: Vilma explains why career decisions made purely with your head may be "hacked" and running on historical data. We discuss the importance of using your body and heart to make decisions, and then using your brain for the strategy.
• Taming the Gremlins: Practical advice for working with the inevitable limiting beliefs and Impostor Syndrome (or "gremlins") that show up, especially when you are leaving a prestigious career path.
• Purpose Over Paycheck: Understand why many people who achieve high corporate success realize they need to seek more meaning and purpose aligned with their values.
• Normalizing Fear: Recognize that shifting your career path shakes your identity and financial reality, triggering survival fear. Learn why feeling fearful is not a sign you shouldn't go forward, but rather a reminder to build a safe transition strategy.
