If you’ve been considering making a career change, you might be feeling more than a little anxiety. And I get it! 

Making a career change can feel a bit like jumping into the deep end when you only know how to dog paddle. 

I’ve been there. 

In this episode, I’m sharing a peek into how I made my first major and most pivotal career pivot from operations management into HR, after being told NO. 

We walk through 10 signs it’s time to make a career change + 3 common struggles you might experience when making a change. 

10 SIGNS THAT IT MAY BE TIME TO CHANGE YOUR CAREER 

1. You’re bored at work.
2. You’re no longer learning new skills.
3. You don’t like your coworkers, colleagues, or clients.
4. You’re starting to realize that your mental and/or physical health is suffering.
5. You’ve stopped caring about your work.
6. You don’t have a vision for your next best role within the company you’re currently in.
7. You get a case of the Sunday Scaries every week.
8. You’re stifled in your career growth.
9. You feel empty and unfulfilled, as though you have more to give, but your job doesn’t allow it.
10. You’re exhausted/drained at the end of each day.

3 Common Struggles You May Face While Job Searching in the Midst of a Career Change

Of all the clients I’ve worked with, I’ve noticed patterns that most of them experience when thinking about switching careers:

1. Lack of confidence or a fixed mindset
2. Fear of failure
3. Unfocused job-seeking

So, before you jump into resume updates and “doom-scrolling” big job boards, it’s essential to get clear on what’s next for you. 

In the next episode, we’ll dive into the details about HOW to make a proactive + personalized heart-based career change.
