In this episode of the Dream It Do It podcast, I’m also excited to introduce my new membership community, Dream It Do It Wellness, which is designed to support busy working moms like you in personal growth, health, and fitness.
I want to encourage you to take a moment to reflect on your strengths and what truly lights you up. It’s all about proactively pursuing your dreams, even while juggling your current responsibilities. Let’s do this together!
Key Strategies for Career Reinvention
- Imagine What It Could Look Like: I emphasize the importance of taking the time to envision your desired career or life. I suggest writing down what you like, your strengths, and what you want your work to encompass. This clarity can guide your next steps.
- Leverage Existing Skills: Utilize the skills and assets you’ve already developed in your current role, as these can be incredibly valuable in building your new opportunity.
- Phased Change Approach: Rather than making a dramatic career shift, I recommend a phased approach. This involves maintaining your current job while gradually building your side business or new career path. This approach minimizes risk and provides financial stability while exploring new opportunities.
- Financial Prudence: Living below your means is a strategic move to ensure you have the financial flexibility to pivot without the pressure of immediate income replacement.
- Be Energized by Momentum: Lastly, taking simple and swift actions to maintain momentum. This involves continuously moving forward, even if it feels uncertain, by focusing on taking the next right step.
My approach is about making thoughtful, intentional changes while leveraging your current strengths and minimizing risks, allowing you to transition smoothly into a more fulfilling career path.
