Hello and welcome to episode #2 of my Career Change mini-series!

In today’s episode I show you how to get started on your career change, because ‘not knowing where to even start’ is one of the first big stumbling blocks on this journey.

The other big stumbling block is that people often start by looking at their CV and trying to figure out what ‘transferable skills’ they have and what they can do with them 🙈

This is NOT where you should start!

In fact, focusing on your CV and transferable skills can leave you feeling more lost and limited than before.

Instead you need to go back to basics and start exploring what ingredients you need to feel happy, alive and fulfilled in the work you do. Watch the video for a step-by-step guide to the questions you should be asking and the exercises I give to all my clients when they start on a Career Change journey with me.
